Abstract
This study evaluated the effects of replacing cereal grains and soybean meal with by-products (BY) on production performance, nutrient digestibility, ruminal fermentation, nutrient recovery, and eating and chewing behavior of moderate-producing dairy cows under heat-stress conditions. Twelve multiparous Holstein cows (116.7 ± 12.01 d in milk; 42.7 ± 5.06 kg/d milk yield; 665 ± 77 kg body weight; mean ± SD) were used in a replicated 3 × 3 Latin square with 28-d periods (21 d for diet adaptation and 7 d for sampling and data collection). Cows were fed a total mixed ration containing a 39.2:60.8 ratio of forage to concentrate throughout the experiment. All diets were formulated to be isoenergetic and isonitrogenous, with different concentrates. Diets were (1) control diet based on cereal grains (CON: ground corn and ground barley, plus soybean meal); (2) sugar-rich BY diet (S-BY-CM: beet pulp, citrus pulp, and liquid molasses, plus canola meal); and (3) cereal grain BY diet (CG-BY: rice bran, corn germ meal, wheat bran, barley sprout, and broken corn). Our results showed that replacing grains with BY increased neutral detergent fiber intake and digestibility but decreased starch intake, human-edible energy, and human-edible protein. Milk yield and dry matter intake (DMI) decreased more in cows fed the CG-BY diet compared with the other 2 treatments. In contrast, no significant differences were observed between the CON and S-BY-CM diets in terms of milk yield and DMI. The S-BY-CM diet increased energy-corrected milk production compared with the CG-BY diet (36.2 vs. 34.3 kg/d), but CG-BY enhanced feed conversion efficiency compared with the other 2 treatments. Although the S-BY-CM diet prolonged the eating and sorting of small particles, neither of the dietary treatments affected chewing activity or ruminal pH 4 h after feeding. Furthermore, both diets containing BY contributed to an increase in milk fat content in comparison to the CON group. Additionally, the CG-BY and S-BY-CM diets demonstrated better performance than the CON diet in terms of human-edible feed conversion efficiency for protein and energy. The results indicated that S-BY-CM can completely replace barley and corn grain in the diet of mid-lactating dairy cows exposed to heat-stress conditions without any negative effect on production and ruminal pH. However, the inclusion of CG-BY did impair DMI, milk yield, and digestibility of nutrients and is not recommended during heat-stress conditions.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a progressive neurodegenerative illness that leads to impairment of cognitive functions and memory loss. Even though there is a plethora of research reporting the abnormal regulation of VEGF expression in AD pathogenesis, whether the CSF and serum VEGF are increased in AD is an open question yet. In this study, the association of CSF and serum VEGF concentrations with the risk of Alzheimer's disease was investigated using systematic review and meta-analysis. METHODS A systematic literature search was carried out using online specialized biomedical databases of Web of Science, Pubmed, Scopus, Embase, and Google Scholar until Feb 2023 without restriction to the beginning time. The meta-analysis was performed using the random-effects model and only case-control publications describing VEGF concentrations in Alzheimer's patients were considered for calculating the pooled effect size. RESULTS In the systematic literature search, 6 and 13 studies met the inclusion criteria to evaluate CSF and serum VEGF concentrations of Alzheimer's patients, respectively. This meta-analysis retrieved a total number of 2380 Alzheimer's patients and 5368 healthy controls. Under the random-effects model in the meta-analysis, the pooled SMD for CSF and serum VEGF concentrations of Alzheimer's patients were -0.13 (95%CI,-0.42-0.16) and 0.23 (95%CI,-0.27-0.73), respectively. Results of meta-regression analysis showed that the quality scores of papers and female sex ratios of participants did not affect the associations of VEGF concentrations with the risk of Alzheimer's disease. However, the age average of patients significantly affects the associations of CSF VEGF concentrations with the risk of Alzheimer's disease (P=0.051). There was a statistically significant subgroup effect for the disease severity of Alzheimer's patients which modifies the associations of serum VEGF concentrations with the risk of Alzheimer's disease (P<0.01) and subgroup analysis shows that study location modifies the associations of CSF and serum VEGF concentrations with the risk of Alzheimer's disease (P<0.01). CONCLUSION The results show that the serum VEGF concentrations increased for Alzheimer's patients in accordance with the increased expression of VEGF and the VEGF levels of Alzheimer's patients decreased by increasing their disease severities. Therefore, in addition to detecting AD in the earliest stages of the disease, serum VEGF could be a promising biomarker to follow up on the disease and evaluate the clinical course of the disease.

Abstract
In this study, we investigated the protective effects of Ferulago angulata extract (FAE) against the reproductive toxicants Diazinon (DZN) and Lead (Pb) in mice. These pollutants are known to induce oxidative stress (OS), while FAE acts as a natural antioxidant. Adult male NMRI mice were exposed to DZN, Pb, and DZN+Pb, with or without FAE treatment for six weeks. We evaluated OS markers, testicular histology, and expression of mRNA related to enzymatic antioxidants. Exposure to DZN and Pb led to increased levels of thiobarbituric acid reactive substance (TBARS) and nitric oxide (NO) in the testes, along with a decrease in the total antioxidant capacity (TAC). Furthermore, the mRNA expression of antioxidant enzymes such as superoxide dismutase 1 (SOD1) and glutathione peroxidase 4 (GPX4) was altered. However, when FAE was administered concurrently, it restored the biochemical parameters to normal levels, reduced the toxic effects of DZN and Pb, and provided protection against testicular histopathological injury. These findings suggest that FAE has the potential to serve as a protective agent against oxidative damage caused by contaminants in reproductive organs, specifically in the testes.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Sperm DNA integrity is increasingly seen as a critical characteristic determining reproductive success, both in natural reproduction and in assisted reproductive technologies (ART). Despite this awareness, sperm DNA and nuclear integrity tests are still not part of routine examinations for either infertile men or fertile men wishing to assess their reproductive capacity. This is not due to the unavailability of DNA and sperm nuclear integrity tests. On the contrary, several relevant but distinct tests are available and have been used in many clinical trials, which has led to conflicting results and confusion. The reasons for this are mainly the lack of standardization between different clinics and between the tests themselves. In addition, the small number of samples analyzed in these trials has often weakened the value of the analyses performed. In the present work, we used a large cohort of semen samples, covering a wide age range, which were simultaneously evaluated for sperm DNA fragmentation (SDF) using two of the most frequently used SDF assays, namely the TUNEL assay and the sperm chromatin structure assay (SCSA®). At the same time, as standard seminal parameters (sperm motility, sperm morphology, sperm count) were available for these samples, correlations between age, SDF and conventional seminal parameters were analyzed. RESULTS We show that the SCSA® and TUNEL assessments of SDF produce concordant data. However, the SDF assessed by TUNEL is systematically lower than that assessed by SCSA®. Regardless of the test used, the SDF increases steadily during aging, while the HDS parameter (High DNA stainability assessed via SCSA®) remains unchanged. In the cohort analyzed, conventional sperm parameters do not seem to discriminate with aging. Only sperm volume and motility were significantly lower in the oldest age group analyzed [50-59 years of age]. CONCLUSIONS In the large cohort analyzed, SDF is an age-dependent parameter, increasing linearly with aging. The SCSA® assessment of SDF and the flow cytometry-assisted TUNEL assessment are well correlated, although TUNEL is less sensitive than SCSA®. This difference in sensitivity should be taken into account in the final assessment of the true level of fragmentation of the sperm nucleus of a given sample. The classical sperm parameters (motility, morphology, sperm count) do not change dramatically with age, making them inadequate to assess the fertility potential of an individual.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Epigenetic modifications such as DNA methylation play a key role in male infertility etiology. This study aimed to explore the global DNA methylation status in testicular spermatogenic cells of varicocele-induced rats and consider their semen quality, with a focus on key epigenetic marks, namely 5-methylcytosine (5-mC) and 5-hydroxymethylcytosine (5-hmC), as well as the mRNA and proteins of ten-eleven translocation (TET) methylcytosine dioxygenases 1-3. MATERIALS AND METHODS In this experimental study, 24 mature male Wistar rats (8 in each group) were assigned amongst the control, sham, and varicocele groups. Sperm quality was assessed, and DNA methylation patterns of testicular spermatogenic cells were investigated using reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR), western blot, and immunofluorescence techniques. RESULTS Sperm parameters, chromatin and DNA integrity were significantly lower, and sperm lipid peroxidation significantly increased in varicocele-induced rats in comparison with control rats. During spermatogenesis in rat testis, 5-mC and 5-hmC epigenetic marks, and TET1-3 mRNA and proteins were expressed. In contrast to the 5-mC fluorescent signal which was presented in all testicular cells, the 5-hmC fluorescent signal was presented exclusively in spermatogonia and a few spermatids. In varicocele-induced rats, the 5-mC signal decreased in all cells within the tubules, whereas a strong signal of 5-hmC was detected in seminiferous tubules compared to the control group. As well, the levels of TET2 mRNA and protein expression were significantly upregulated in varicocele-induced rats in comparison with the control group. Also, our results showed that the varicocele-induced animals exhibited strong fluorescent signals of TET1-3 in testicular cells, whereas weak fluorescent signals were identified in the seminiferous tubules of the control animals. CONCLUSION Consequently, we showed TET2 upregulation and the 5-hmC gain at testicular levels are associated with varicocele and sperm quality decline, and therefore they can be exploited as potential biomarkers of spermatogenesis.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Stress may have an important role in the origin and progress of depression and can impair metabolic homeostasis. The one-carbon cycle (1-CC) metabolism and amino acid (AA) profile are some of the consequences related to stress. In this study, we investigated the Paroxetine treatment effect on the plasma metabolite alterations induced by forced swim stress-induced depression in mice. MATERIALS AND METHODS In this experimental study that was carried out in 2021, thirty male NMRI mice (6-8 weeks age, 30 ± 5 g) were divided into five groups: control, sham, paroxetine treatment only (7 mg/kg BW/day), depression induction, and Paroxetine+depression. Mice were subjected to a forced swim test (FST) to induce depression and then were treated with Paroxetine, for 35 consecutive days. The swimming and immobility times were recorded during the interventions. Then, animals were sacrificed, plasma was prepared and the concentration of 1-CC factors and twenty AAs was measured by spectrophotometry and high-performance liquid chromatography system (HPLC) techniques. Data were analyzed by SPSS, using One-Way ANOVA and Pearson Correlation, and P<0.05 was considered significant. RESULTS Plasma concentrations of phenylalanine, glutamate, aspartate, arginine, ornithine, citrulline, threonine, histidine, and alanine were significantly reduced in the depression group in comparison with the control group. The Homocysteine (Hcy) plasma level was increased in the Paroxetine group which can be associated with hyperhomocysteinemia. Moreover, vitamin B12, phenylalanine, glutamate, ornithine, citrulline, and glycine plasma levels were significantly reduced in the depression group after Paroxetine treatment. CONCLUSION This study has demonstrated an impairment in the plasma metabolites' homeostasis in depression and normal conditions after Paroxetine treatment, although, further studies are required.

Abstract
The intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) has significantly improved male factor infertility treatment; however, complete fertilization failure still occurs in 1-5% of ICSI treatment cycles mainly due to oocyte activation failure. It is estimated that around 40-70% of oocyte activation failure is associated with sperm factors after ICSI. Assisted oocyte activation (AOA) as an effective approach to avoid total fertilization failure (TFF) has been proposed following ICSI. In the literature, several procedures have been described to overcome failed oocyte activation. These include mechanical, electrical, or chemical stimuli initiating artificial Ca2+ rises in the cytoplasm of oocytes. AOA in couples with previous failed fertilization and those with globozoospermia has resulted in varying degrees of success. The aim of this review is to examine the available literature on AOA in teratozoospermic men undergoing ICSI-AOA and determine whether the ICSI-AOA should be considered as an adjunct fertility procedure for these patients.

Abstract
In this systematic review, we assessed different studies to evaluate the protective effect of alpha-lipoic acid (ALA), as a multifaceted antioxidant, on sperm functions in rodent models. Four databases were searched to find papers reporting the effect of ALA treatment on animal models of male infertility. Up to December 2022, 11,787 articles were identified to explain the ALA protective effects. The included studies were evaluated for eligibility and risk of bias (CRD42022341370). Finally, we identified 23 studies that explain the effect of ALA on sperm functions in rodents. Among them, 15 studies indicated that ALA could restore sperm parameters. Six studies showed a significant reduction in sperm DNA damage by ALA treatment. Seventeen papers displayed the ALA antioxidant ability, and four studies indicated the ALA anti-inflammatory effect. Besides, thirteen studies displayed that ALA could modulate androgenesis. Also, eighteen studies revealed that ALA restored the testicular architecture to normal, and was also effective in restoring reproductive performance in two included studies. This systematic review provided cogent evidence for the protective effect of ALA in rodent models for male infertility by re-establishing spermatogenesis and steroidogenesis and maintaining redox and immune systems homeostasis.

Abstract
AIMS The interaction between common cardiovascular risk factors (CVRF) and hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is poorly studied. We sought to explore the relation between CVRF and the clinical characteristics of patients with HCM enrolled in the EURObservational Research Programme (EORP) Cardiomyopathy registry. METHODS AND RESULTS 1739 patients with HCM were studied. The relation between hypertension (HT), diabetes (DM), body mass index (BMI), and clinical traits was analysed. Analyses were stratified according to the presence or absence of a pathogenic variant in a sarcomere gene. The prevalence of HT, DM, and obesity (Ob) was 37, 10, and 21%, respectively. HT, DM, and Ob were associated with older age (P<0.001), less family history of HCM (HT and DM P<0.001), higher New York Heart Association (NYHA) class (P<0.001), atrial fibrillation (HT and DM P<0.001; Ob p = 0.03) and LV (left ventricular) diastolic dysfunction (HT and Ob P<0.001; DM P = 0.003). Stroke was more frequent in HT (P<0.001) and mutation-positive patients with DM (P = 0.02). HT and Ob were associated with higher provocable LV outflow tract gradients (HT P<0.001, Ob P = 0.036). LV hypertrophy was more severe in Ob (P = 0.018). HT and Ob were independently associated with NYHA class (OR 1.419, P = 0.017 and OR 1.584, P = 0.004, respectively). Other associations, including a higher proportion of females in HT and of systolic dysfunction in HT and Ob, were observed only in mutation-positive patients. CONCLUSION Common CVRF are associated with a more severe HCM phenotype, suggesting a proactive management of CVRF should be promoted. An interaction between genotype and CVRF was observed for some traits.

Abstract
Background The waiting list for heart transplants is a valuable data registry that would offer very useful information on the characteristics of patients who have various outcomes while waiting in the list. Objective The purpose of this study was to look at the prognosis of those waiting for heart transplants as well as the factors that increase mortality. Methods Advanced heart failure patients' demographic, clinical, hemodynamic, and echocardiographic results, as well as their prognosis, were retrieved from the national registry for heart transplantation between 2011 and 2018. The study population was defined and compared in four groups: 1) Death while awaiting HTX, 2) Death after HTX, 3) Alive without a transplant, 4) Transplanted and alive. Results The data of 207 patients [75% male, mean (SD) age of 34(10) years] were analyzed. The most common etiology of heart failure was idiopathic dilated cardiomyopathy. A total of 86 patients (41%) were successfully transplanted, with a median (IQR) time between listing and transplantation of 84 (30¬219) days, 54 patients (26.1%) were dead and 32% were still alive. The multivariate analysis showed right atrial pressure, pulmonary capillary wedge pressure, cardiac index, and systolic blood pressure at the time of listing as independent predictors of death. Conclusion The study on HTX waiting list is very useful for both allocation strategies and administrative planning for patients with advanced heart failure by development of accurate models and scoring systems using predictors of death in the waiting list.

Abstract
During cryopreservation, spermatozoa are exposed to chemical or physical stress that has adverse effects on the quality of mammalian spermatozoa. Recently, much attention has been paid to environmental contaminants (ECs) in livestock, because of their detrimental effects on livestock productivity and fertility. ECs like diazinon (DZN) and lead acetate (LA) are considered ubiquitous and induced oxidative stress, which decreases spermatozoa quality. Since Ferulago angulata extract (FAE) has antioxidant properties, the present study investigated the effect of FAE supplementation in a freezing extender, in the presence or absence of DZN + LA, during cryopreservation, on the quality and fertility ability of buck spermatozoa after thawing. Pooled ejaculates were diluted with a freezing extender and supplemented with FAE (0.002%, w/v) in the presence or absence of DZN (100 μM) + LA (12.5 μM). Post-thaw spermatozoa parameters, ROS production, fertilization ability, and developmental competence of oocytes inseminated with FAE/DZN + LA treated spermatozoa were calculated. The results demonstrated that FAE improves cryopreserved spermatozoa motility, viability, membrane integrity, fertilizability, and developmental competence, and reduced spermatozoa ROS production in the presence or absence of DZN + LA. Besides, FAE significantly restored the adverse effects of DZN + LA exposure during cryopreservation on inner cell mass (ICM) count, trophectoderm (TE) cell count, total cell number (TCN), and the ratio between ICM to TCN. In conclusion, FAE on its own resulted in an improvement in the buck spermatozoa's quality and fertility. Therefore, the addition of FAE, as a natural antioxidant to buck semen extender, can increase spermatozoa cryotolerance and post-thaw resistance even when exposed to ECs.

Abstract
Solid organ recipients have increased risk of malignancy in comparison with general population. Although post-transplant lymphoproliferative disorders are the second most common cancer in transplanted patients, primary CNS lymphoma is a rare presentation of these disorders. Among the wide range of neurologic complications in post- transplant period, some characteristics could be helpful for diagnosing of this disorder. Rarity of CNS lymphoma may lead to late diagnosis of this disease while early detection has utmost importance for better management of it. Here, we describe a heart recipient young woman with focal neurologic symptoms 14 months after transplantation and some features that could be helpful for on-time diagnosis.

Abstract
Current surgical reconstruction for soft tissue replacement involves lipotransfer to restore soft tissue replacements but is limited by survival and longevity of the fat tissue. Alternative approaches to overcome these limitations include using biodegradable scaffolds with stem cells with growth factors to generate soft tissue. Adipose derived stem cells (ADSCs) offer great potential to differentiate into adipose, and can be delivered using biodegradable scaffolds. However, the optimal scaffold to maximise this approach is unknown. This study investigates the biocompatibility of nanocomposite scaffolds (POSS-PCL) to deliver ADSCs with and without the addition of growth factors using platelet rich plasma (PRP) in vivo. Rat ADSCs were isolated and then seeded on biodegradable scaffolds (POSS-PCL). In addition, donor rats were used to isolate PRP to modify the scaffolds. The implants were then subcutaneously implanted for 3-months to assess the effect of PRP and ADSC on POSS-PCL scaffolds biocompatibility. Histology after explanation was examined to assess tissue integration (H&E) and collagen production (Massons Trichome). Immunohistochemistry was used to assess angiogenesis (CD3, α-SMA), immune response (CD45, CD68) and adipose formation (PPAR-γ). At 3-months PRP-ADSC-POSS-PCL scaffolds demonstrated significantly increased tissue integration and angiogenesis compared to PRP, ADSC and unmodified scaffolds (p < 0.05). In addition, PRP-ADSC-POSS-PCL scaffolds showed similar levels of CD45 and CD68 staining compared to unmodified scaffolds. Furthermore, there was increased PPAR-γ staining demonstrated at 3-months with PRP-ADSC-POSS-PCL scaffolds (p < 0.05). POSS-PCL nanocomposite scaffolds provide an effective delivery system for ADSCs. PRP and ADSC work synergistically to enhance the biocompatibility of POSS-PCL scaffolds and provide a platform technology for soft tissue regeneration.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The potential toxicity that results from environmental xenobiotics is not completely known. Increasing levels of heavy metals and the use of organophosphate pesticides (OPs) and their co-existence in the environment could be associated with an increasing incidence of male reproductive system disorders in humans and animals. Ferulago angulata is a dietary source of phenolic compounds with reported health benefits. OBJECTIVE This study was conducted to investigate whether an extract of Ferulago angulata could protect adult male NMRI mice against reproductive toxicity induced by lead acetate (PbAc), diazinon (DZN), or PbAc + DZN. MATERIALS AND METHODS Adult male NMRI mice were exposed to either 0.5% PbAc in drinking water, DZN (3 mg/kg/day, intraperitoneal [i.p.] injection), or PbAc + DZN in the presence or absence of 400 mg/kg/day Ferulago angulata hydroalcoholic extract (FAE) that was administered via gavage for 6 weeks. RESULTS Chronic exposure to PbAc, DZN, and PbAc + DZN decreased sperm quality, sperm chromatin maturity and integrity, increased oxidative stress and lipid peroxidation, and could reduce male fertility indices. Co-administration of FAE could reduce these negative effects. CONCLUSION The Ferulago angulata extract should be considered as a useful natural extract for the treatment of male infertility, especially in males exposed to conditions which induce reproductive toxicity.

Abstract
Background Synthetic implants are being used to restore injured or damaged tissues following cancer resection and congenital diseases. However, the survival of large tissue implant replacements depends on their ability to support angiogenesis that if limited, causes extrusion and infection of the implant. This study assessed the beneficial effect of platelet-rich plasma (PRP) and adipose-derived stem cells (ADSCs) on synthetic biomaterials in combination with argon plasma surface modification to enhance vascularisation of tissue-engineered constructs. Methods Non-biodegradable polyurethane scaffolds were manufactured and modified with plasma surface modification using argon gas (PM). Donor rats were then used to extract ADSCs and PRP to modify the scaffolds further. Scaffolds with and without PM were modified with and without ADSCs and PRP and subcutaneously implanted in the dorsum of rats for 3 months. After 12 weeks, the scaffolds were excised and the degree of tissue integration using H&E staining and Masson’s trichrome staining, angiogenesis by CD31 and immune response by CD45 and CD68 immunohistochemistry staining was examined. Results H&E and Masson’s trichrome staining showed PM+PRP+ADSC and PM+ADSC scaffolds had the greatest tissue integration, but there was no significant difference between the two scaffolds (p < 0.05). The greatest vessel formation after 3 months was shown with PM+PRP+ADSC and PM+ADSC scaffolds using CD31 staining compared to all other scaffolds (p < 0.05). The CD45 and CD68 staining was similar between all scaffolds after 3 months showing the ADSCs or PRP had no effect on the immune response of the scaffolds. Conclusions Argon plasma surface modification enhanced the effect of adipose-derived stem cells effect on angiogenesis and tissue integration of polyurethane scaffolds. The combination of ADSCs and argon plasma modification may improve the survival of large tissue implants for regenerative applications.

Abstract
AIM Breast cancer (BC) is one of the leading causes of cancer death among women. Recent studies have characterized FoxP3 as a marker of regulatory T cells and an X-linked tumor suppressor gene, which is involved in the pathogenesis of BC. Therefore, we investigated the potential influence of three single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of FoxP3 gene on the development of BC in Iranian women. MATERIALS AND METHODS The association between FoxP3 rs2232365, rs3761548 and rs4824747 polymorphisms and BC risk was assessed in 124 BC patients and 198 healthy controls using sequence-specific primers. RESULTS We identified significant difference of rs3761548 in both allele and genotype frequencies between cases and control groups. Our results showed that individuals carrying FoxP3 rs3761548 AA genotype had about 4.3-fold increased risk of BC compared with CC carriers. No significant association was found between rs3761548C>A polymorphism and clinical outcome parameters (age of onset, tumor size, lymph nodes metastasis, tumor stage, progesterone receptor status, estrogen receptor status, Ki-67 status, HER-2 status and duration of disease). CONCLUSION This study has provided the first genetic data on the FoxP3 gene polymorphism in south of Iran and proposes the rs3761548 polymorphism of FoxP3 gene as a risk factor, but not a prognostic marker in the development of BC in Iranian population.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Endomyocardial biopsy (EMB) has been defined as the gold standard method for surveillance of rejection after heart transplantation, and it has also been used in the diagnosis of myocarditis and the unknown causes of cardiomyopathies. The procedure, however, is not free from complications. Access through the jugular vein or the femoral vein is the standard approach. In this study, we performed biopsies by using a long, curved sheath and evaluated the rate of complications with this technique. METHODS In this descriptive case series study, 97 EMBs were performed in 72 patients who were referred to a cardiovascular and medical research center in Tehran, Iran, between October 2011 and May 2013. The procedures were performed via the femoral approach by using a long bioptome with a long, curved sheath. RESULTS Adequate specimens were obtained in 97.9% of the total EMBs, with an average of 5 fragments per procedure. No deaths occurred, and there were no cases of pericardial effusion, myocardial rupture, papillary muscle rupture, increase in the severity of tricuspid regurgitation, atrioventricular block, sustained and nonsustained ventricular tachycardia, or atrial fibrillation. There was one case of persistent right bundle branch block. CONCLUSIONS Using a long, curved sheath can facilitate access to the interventricular septum compared with common sheaths and can be used safely in EMB via the femoral approach.

Abstract
Cannabinoids (CBs) have recently been approved to exert broad anti-inflammatory activities in experimental models of multiple sclerosis (MS). It has been demonstrated that these compounds could also have effects on neurodegeneration, demyelination, and autoimmune processes occurring in the pathology of MS. However, the clinical use of CBs is limited by their psychoactive effects. Among cannabinoid compounds, cannabidiol (CBD) and palmitoylethanolamide (PEA) have no psychotropic activities. We induced experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE), a model of MS, by injecting myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein (MOG) to C57BL/6 mice. We assessed the effects of CBD, PEA, and co-administration of CBD and PEA on neurobehavioral scores, immune cell infiltration, demyelination, axonal injury, and the expression of inflammatory cytokines by using histochemistry methods and real-time RT-PCR. Treatment with either CBD (5mg/kg) or PEA (5mg/kg) during disease onset reduced the severity of the neurobehavioral scores of EAE. This effect of CBD and PEA was accompanied by diminished inflammation, demyelination, axonal damage and inflammatory cytokine expression while concurrent administration of CBD (5mg/kg) and PEA (5mg/kg) was not as effective as treatment with either drug per se. These results suggest that, CBD and PEA, non-psychoactive CBs, attenuate neurobehavioral deficits, histological damage, and inflammatory cytokine expression in MOG-immunized animals. However, there is an antagonistic interaction between CBD and PEA in protection against MOG-induced disease.

Abstract
Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) are the first choice of drugs that are normally used for the treatment of pain and inflammation. Ibuprofen (I) and its analogues as the most widely used NSAIDs have been synthesized in recent years. In an effort to establish new candidates with improved analgesic properties, derivatives (II-VII) with substituted aromatic as well as aliphatic moieties were synthesized in this experiment and evaluated in formalin test with rats. The results were compared to ibuprofen and control groups. Findings indicated that derivatives with new alkylphenyl rings (VI and VII) had some similar or more analgesic activities relative to the control and ibuprofen groups, respectively; which could be justified as to more alkyl and phenyl groups instead of p-isobutylphenyl moiety in I.

Abstract
Antihistamines play an important role in medicine when it comes to relieving seasonal or non-seasonal rhinitis, the common cold, and itching. They have also shown many various combinations of pharmacological properties such as anti-inflammatory and analgesic activities. Phenothiazines and ethylenediamines are 2 important classes of antihistamines with analgesic activities in addition to other pharmacological effects. In this study, some new derivatives of these compounds (V-IX) were synthesized and their antinociceptive behaviors were examined by pharmacological tests. The results indicated that new analogue with methyl groups produced a better analgesic activity than chlorine atoms but less than III (without any substitutions) in ethylenediamine class. Also in phenothiazine class, adding pyrimidine and pyridine substituted showed the better analgesic activity compared to other groups. Moreover, the analgesic activities proved that dimethylamine is the best group in amino alkyl side chain of these molecules relative to the substituted piperazines in new analogues.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) is a common functional gastrointestinal disorder. AIMS To identify demographic factors in patients with IBS. SUBJECTS AND METHODS One-hundred and fifty three IBS patients seen at Taleghani Hospital Gastroenterology Clinic and met the Rome III criteria and 163 peoples who did not meet IBS criteria were consecutively enrolled. Both groups were asked to complete a self-rating questionnaire containing information, which included questions about age, sex, monthly income, education level, marital status, height, weight, alcohol drinking and smoking habits. Student's t-test, Pearson's Chi-square and logistic regression were used to statistical analysis. RESULTS The mean (SD) age for IBS patients 36.3 (13.5) years and 33.1 (9.9) years in non-IBS group (P < 0.001). Frequency of IBS defined by Rome III criteria was higher in females and younger individuals. Univariate analysis showed that IBS in males was associated with a lower monthly income and educational level and in females younger age, single, lower monthly income and educational level, body mass index (BMI), and unemployment status. Multivariate logistic regression identified a low level of education in males (Odds ratio [OR] = 3.6, 95% Confidence interval [CI]: 1.4-9.6) and in females, lower education level (OR = 2.4, 95% CI: 1.1-5.2), lower BMI (OR = 0.94, 95% CI: 0.89-0.99), unemployed (OR = 0.31, 95% CI: 0.11-0.85) and smoking (OR = 6.2, 95% CI: 1.03-37.2). CONCLUSION We identified demographic factors in IBS patients. Being single and having a lower educational level, income, lower BMI and being unemployed were the most important factors associated with IBS, particularly in females.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Pre-operative limb preparation (PLP) usually involves lifting the limb and holding it in a fixed 'static' posture for several minutes. This is hazardous to theatre staff. Furthermore, 'painting' the limb can be time consuming and difficult areas such as between toes and fingers may remain unsterile. We demonstrate the time efficiency and asepsis achieved using the 'sterile bag' preparation technique. An additional advantage is the ability to prepare and anaesthetise a limb prior to theatre, increasing efficiency substantially for units with a large throughput of cases, such as day-case hand surgery lists. METHODS We monitored the duration of PLP in 20 patients using the 'sterile bag' technique compared to 20 patients using a conventional 'painting' method. Additionally, microbiology samples acquired from prepared upper limbs of 27 sequential patients operated on by a single surgeon over a two-month period were sent for culture immediately prior to commencement of surgery. RESULTS The mean duration of the 'sterile bag' PLP was significantly lower than that of the conventional method (24 seconds vs 85 seconds, p=0.045). The technique can take as little as ten seconds (n=1). Final microbiology reports showed no growth for any of the 27 patients from whom a culture sample was taken. CONCLUSIONS The sterile bag technique is effective in achieving asepsis, has the potential to increase theatre efficiency and reduces manual handling hazards compared to the conventional method. It is now taught to all theatre staff in our hospital during manual handling training. It can be undertaken in approximately ten seconds with practice for the upper limb.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Allogeneic cord blood transplantation is associated with less severe graft-versus-host disease (GVHD). Dendritic cells (DCs), as the most potent antigen-presenting cells of the immune system, play a central role in the development of GVHD. Because apoptosis induction is one of the known mechanisms that DCs use to regulate T-cell responses, we studied the immunostimulatory and apoptosis induction capacities of cord blood dendritic cells (CBDCs) and peripheral blood dendritic cells (PBDCs) to evaluate the mechanisms underlying the lower incidence of GVHD after cord blood transplantation. Presence of apoptosis-related markers Fas, Fas ligand (FasL), and CD40 and costimulatory molecules, along with the proportion of myeloid and lymphoid DCs subsets, were also measured on CBDCs and PBDCs. METHODS Fresh CBDCs and PBDCs were isolated from cord and peripheral mononuclear cells as lineage-negative cells by using monoclonal antibodies against CD3, CD11b, CD14, CD16, CD19, CD56, CD34, and CD66b. DCs were cocultured with allogeneic T cells, and the effect of CBDCs and PBDCs on T-cell apoptosis and proliferation were determined through flow cytometric analysis and 3H-thymidine incorporation. RESULTS Our findings showed that CBDCs markedly augment apoptosis of CD3+ T-cells. FasL expression on CBDCs was significantly higher than on PBDCs. However, there was no difference between Fas expression on CBDCs and PBDCs. Moreover, CBDCs were poor stimulators of allogenic T cells in mixed leukocyte reaction compared with adult peripheral blood DCs. They also displayed decreased expression of HLA-DR and CD86 molecules. The ratio of lymphoid DCs (CD11c-, CD123+) to myeloid DCs (CD11c+, CD123-) was also significantly higher in CBDCs compared with PBDCs. CONCLUSIONS It seems that less severe GVHD after cord blood transplantation is due not only to a higher degree of immaturity of CBDCs, but also to delivery of apoptotic signals to the host T cells that recognize allo-MHC molecules on CBDCs in the early phase of immune response.
