by Meral V Kharoufeh, Raghad N Saleh, Elias E Lahham, Suhail W Hanania, Aram G Shatara, Cezar E Lahham,

Journal of Medical Research and Reviews. 2024; 2 (3): 68-76 - https://dx.doi.org/10.5455/JMRR.20240325085425

ABSTRACT: The indirect sinus lift procedure is one of the main treatment options to manage atrophy in the residual bone height in the posterior maxilla. This procedure can be performed alone or complemented by biomaterials grafting, such as platelet-rich fibrin (PRF), followed by implant placement. PRF is considered a highly regenerative biomaterial derived from the patient's blood, stands out for its safety, cost-effectiveness, and wide range of applications in both medical and dental contexts, particularly in bone augmentation and sinus lift procedures. This systematic review synthesizes data from articles published [...]   Read more

A clinico-pathological analysis of Ivermectin-induced toxicity in eight Hermann’s Tortoises treated for tick infestation

by Abdulhakeem Binhambali, Musa Halidu, Dauda Dauda Ibrahim, Zainab Oyiza Idris, Raji Bolaji Abdulsallam, Raphael Omerah Attah

Journal of Research in Veterinary Sciences. 2024; 2 (3): 125-134 - https://dx.doi.org/10.5455/JRVS.20240328090505

ABSTRACT: This study presents a clinico-pathological examination of ivermectin-induced toxicity in eight Hermann's tortoises, administered to address tick infestation. Subsequently, nervous signs were observed, leading to the demise of five tortoises. Clinical manifestations included inappetence, weakness, diarrhea, tremors, and paralysis preceding death. Postmortem examination revealed hemorrhagic lung tissues, fatty liver, and significant tick infestation. Laboratory analysis detected Borrelia spp. in blood smears, Oxyuris spp. eggs and cysts in fecal samples, and Escherichia coli and Salmonella enterica in microbial cultures. Histopathological analysis indicated hepatic vacuolar degeneration. The correlation between clinical, pathological, and [...]   Read more

A new predictor of coronary no-reflow phenomenon after percutaneous coronary intervention in saphenous vein grafts: Eisonophil

by Deniz Elcik, Mustafa Fehmi Bireciklioglu, Aydin Tuncay

Journal of Medical Research and Reviews. 2024; 2 (3): 60-67 - https://dx.doi.org/10.5455/JMRR.20240322020054

ABSTRACT: Introduction: Coronary no-reflow phenomenon is an important factor that causes increased mortality and morbidity in percutaneous coronary intervention procedures. How this happened is a subject that is still under investigation and has no clear answer. In this study, we examined the effect of eosinophil values in coronary no-reflow. Methods: The study was designed retrospectively. Four hundred four patients who underwent coronary bypass were included in the study; 153 in the no-reflow group and 251 in the regular coronary flow group. The relationship between eosinophil values and no-reflow was examined. Results: [...]   Read more

Participatory on farm Evaluation and Demonstration of improved Field Pea (Pisum sativum L.) variety with proper agronomic Practices at Dita and Geze -Gofa Districts of Southern Ethiopia.

by Melese Ejamo Bune, Anteneh Bulke Bura, Abebawu Bergana Wada, Lakamo Liben Lemma

Journal of Research in Agriculture and Food Sciences. 2024; 1 (1): 27-34 - https://dx.doi.org/10.5455/JRAFS.20240326022303

ABSTRACT: Background & Aim: Despite large area under cultivation, the production and productivity of field pea in Ethiopia is very low. One of the reasons to this is the insufficient demonstration of newly released and improved field pea varieties with proper agronomic practices. Therefore, participatory on farm evaluation and demonstration of the Birikitu variety and Local check were conducted at Dita district of Gamo Zone and Geze Gofa Districts of Gofa Zone in 2023 by the aim of enhancing the adoption and diffusion of the field pea technology to farmers. Methods: [...]   Read more

Journal of Research in Agriculture and Food Sciences. 2024; 1 (1): 22-26 - https://dx.doi.org/10.5455/JRAFS.20240321105445

ABSTRACT: Aim: Isolation and identification of bacteria associated with the rice husks are of great significance as these by-products can be put to use as livestock feed, catalysts, adsorbents, alternative energy sources, fertilizers, etc. The aim of this study was to determine bacteria associated with rice husk in Puje ward, Wukari, Nigeria. Methods: A total of thirty (30) rice husk samples were collected from six (6) locations at a rice mill in Puje ward, Wukari, Nigeria. Five (5) samples were collected from each location and were grouped as 1-5, 6-10, 11-15, [...]   Read more

ABSTRACT: Background and aims: Exocrine pancreas insufficiency characterized by decreased pancreatic enzyme activity is one of the conditions associated with prolonged diabetes mellitus. Anti-diabetic activity of Ocimum gratissimum linn. leaf in experimental animals is well documented and using gas chromatography mass spectroscopy analysis, thymol has been identified as one of its bioactive components. This study investigated the effect of thymol on pancreatic alpha amylase activities and oxidative stress biomarkers in streptozotocin-induced diabetic rats. Methods: Twenty-four male Wistar rats grouped into four as Control, THY, DIA, and DIA+THY were used. Animals in DIA [...]   Read more

Effects of meliponiculture Tetragonula laeviceps on productivity, physical and chemical characteristics of tomatoes (Solanum lycopersicum)

by Muhamad Aldi Nurdiansyah, Tjokorda Istri Indira, Khairul Hadi Burhan, Rijanti Rahaju Maulani, Aep Supriyadi, Agus Dana Permana, Muhammad Yusuf Abduh

Journal of Research in Agriculture and Food Sciences. 2024; 1 (1): 14-21 - https://dx.doi.org/10.5455/JRAFS.20240217112138

ABSTRACT: Tomato plants are widely grown in Indonesia using the open agriculture system. However, the widespread application of pesticides in horticultural farming, such as tomato, has prevented pollinators from visiting flowers, contributing to decreased diversity and population due to climate change and pollen and nectar availability in agroecosystems. This study aimed to determine the effects of pollination by stingless bee (Tetragonula laeviceps) on pollination success, fruit yield, and estimated productivity on tomato (Solanum lycopersicum). Furthermore, the effects of T. laeviceps as a pollinator was investigated on the physical and chemical characteristics [...]   Read more
