Effect of low-fat diets enriched with fruit purees on the biochemical markers of metabolic syndrome analogy induced-rats

Int. j. morphol; 38 (1), 2020
Fruit purees can be added to diet as alternative sources of bioactive compounds for the prevention and/or improvement of the complications of metabolic syndrome. In this work we evaluated the effect of the intake of low-fat diets enriched with fruit purees (guava-strawberry, guava-blackberry, guava-sours...

Suppression of hepatic apoptosis induced by acetaminophen using a combination of resveratrol and quercetin: an association of oxidative stress and interleukin-11

Int. j. morphol; 38 (1), 2020
We sought to determine whether the combined polyphenolic compounds, resveratrol and quercetin can substantially protect against modulation of hepatic biomarkers of apoptosis and survival, p53-Bax axis and B-cell lymphoma 2 (Bcl-2) in an animal model of acetaminophen-induced acute liver injury via the ass...

Scanning electron microscopy approach for evaluation of hair dyed with Lawsonia inermis powder: in vitro Study

Int. j. morphol; 38 (1), 2020
During aging, usually graying of the hair occurs as a result of oxidative stress. Driven by social acceptance and self-perception of the exterior appearance, both men and women rely on hair dyeing products, in order to mask the graying hair. At the same time, a frequent use of synthetic products and trea...

Efecto antiangiogénico del ácido cafeico y pinocembrina en el proceso de angiogénesis fisiológica de fetos de pollo

Int. j. morphol; 38 (1), 2020
La angiogénesis es el proceso por el cual se forman nuevos vasos sanguíneos a partir de otros ya existentes. Para que esto se lleve a cabo de forma correcta debe existir un balance entre los factores proangiogénicos y los factores antiangiogénicos dentro del microambiente tisular. Por otra parte, la ...

Anastrozole promotes implantation by altering the expression of paxillin and fak in rat luminal uterine epithelium

Int. j. morphol; 38 (1), 2020
An alternative hyper-ovulator inducer to replace clomiphene citrate (CC) is needed as it is unsuitable for women with polycystic ovarian syndrome and is associated with low pregnancy rates. Anastrozole is an effective hyper-ovulator inducer, but has not been well researched. In order to determine the eff...

Vanadium inhibits Type 2 diabetes mellitus-induced aortic ultrastructural alterations associated with the Inhibition of dyslipidemia and biomarkers of inflammation in rats

Int. j. morphol; 38 (1), 2020
The potential inhibitory effect of the insulin mimicking agent, vanadium on type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM)induced alterations to the aorta ultrastructure associated with the suppression of dyslipedima and biomarkers of inflammation has not been investigated before. Therefore, we tested whether vanadium ...

Antimicrobial resistance and antibiotic consumption in Mexican hospitals

Salud pública Méx; 62 (1), 2020
Abstract: Objective: To establish the current situation of antimicrobial resistance and antibiotic consumption in Mexican hospitals. Materials and methods: Antimicrobial susceptibility data from blood and urine isolates were collected. Defined daily dose (DDD) of antibiotic consumption/100 occupied b...

Short term olfactory memory and olfactory function after inhalation anesthetic agents: a randomized clinical trial

Rev. bras. anestesiol; 70 (1), 2020
Abstract Background and objectives: This clinical trial aimed to evaluate the effects of two different inhalation anesthetic agents on postoperative olfactory memory and olfactory function in patients who underwent micro laryngeal surgery. Methods: This randomized prospective controlled study consisted...

Prevalencia y caracterización genotípica de cepas de Staphylococcus aureus resistente a meticilina aisladas en un hospital regional mexicano

Rev. chil. infectol; 37 (1), 2020
Resumen Introducción: Staphylococcus aureus es uno de los patógenos con mayor prevalencia en el mundo, asociado a una alta tasa de mortalidad y un rápido desarrollo de resistencia a los antimicrobianos. A pesar de su patogenicidad, su seguimiento epidemiológico en México es escaso. Objetivo: Anali...

Evaluación de la elución de sensidiscos para la determinación de susceptibilidad a colistín en bacilos gramnegativos multi-resistentes

Rev. chil. infectol; 37 (1), 2020
Resumen Utilizando cepas clínicas de bacilos gramnegativos multi-resistentes (MDR), comparamos las CIM obtenidas de la microdilución en caldo, el método de referencia y el método de elución de sensidiscos. Encontramos que, con la excepción de A. baumannii, los resultados fueron muy similares. El m...
