Recycling is the inclusion of wastes that can be recycled into the production process by transforming them into secondary raw materials after various physical and/or chemical processes. The natural resources are not infinite. Of course it will run out one day. For this reason, the recycling process has gained a serious…

The Five Elements in acupuncture treatment is determined by using various sequences and the Five Transporting points simultaneously.…

A 75-year-old man presented with pleuritic chest pain, haemoptysis and dyspnoea. Imaging found multiple pulmonary nodules, concerning for malignancy. CT-guided biopsy was consistent with amyloid. The patient has a history of pulmonary amyloidosis, with a single nodule resected 14 years prior. This case allows compariso…

In this study the effects of gamma radiations with compounds are an important subject in the field of medicine, radiation shielding and radiation physics. With technological advances the using of radiation has increased in the medicine in the last century. The mass absorpsion coefficient (µ/ρ) is the fundamental a qu…

It has been widely reported that infections caused by coronaviruses, especially SARS-CoV-2 (Covid-19), can result in cytokine storm syndrome, one of the causes of acute cerebrovascular disease and ‘kounis syndrome’. An 87-year-old male patient, who did not have any chronic diseases apart from hypertensions, was adm…

The aim of this study is to calculate the experimental and theoretical the mass attenuation coefficient some Br compounds by using transmission method. Also using these values were determined the total electronic section, total atomic section, effective atomic number, effective electron density and Kerma. We performed …

Epidemics and pandemics have been recurrent in history. One of the worst pandemics in the modern history was the 1918 H1N1 flu (“Spanish flu”) that claimed the lives of an estimated 50 million people globally [1]. The current pandemic, a severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2), the etiologic agen…

There has been an increasing interest in famotidine research within the scientific medical community because of the emerging preliminary evidence suggesting its possible beneficial role in patients with COVID‑19. The aim of this paper to provide an overview of famotidine research progress relevant to COVID‑19.…

The use of nanoparticles for the therapeutic purpose is gaining pronounced importance. In the last two decades, a number of nanomedicines received regulatory approval and several showed promises through clinical trials. In this content, it is important to synthesize nanoparticles from various sources and to check its e…

Background: With the increasing number of Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD), emergency visit of these patients is also increasing. This study tried to find some of the reasons for which patients with CKD visit the emergency room and the reasons for their mortality.Method: A cross-sectional study was done in the emergency ro…

The first wave of COVID-19 spread across the globe, rapidly during the first half of the year 2020 [1]. Since August 2020, the second wave of COVID-19 has been rampaging across most countries. A third wave may likely occur during the late spring of 2021. These in part coincided with the annual winter flu season in c…

Donation of the tissue or organ of human body from a living or dead person to a living recipient in need of transplantation is organ donation. In the field of modern medicine organ transplantation is one of the greatest scientific advances and remains the most challenging and complex. It saves thousands of life. The ma…

Hydrogels are water-swollen networks, which are cross-linked structures consisting of hydrophilic polymers. They are made three-dimensional by the creation of the cross-links by joining them through covalent or ionic bonds. Hydrogels have been used in various areas including industry and medicine due to their excellent…

Potential clinical benefit in SARS-CoV-2 with remdesivir have been noticed. Recently, FDA has granted the use of remdesivir for COVID-therapy. However, the efficacy of remdesivir alone or with combination of other antivirals, like chloroquine or hydroxychloroquine is still questionable, especially in terms of benefits …

In this study, total atomic cross-section (σta), total moleculer cross-section (σtm) total electronic cross-section (σte), effective atomic number (Zeff), effective electron density (Neff) and Kerma (K) were determined both experimentally and theoretically values for some iodine compounds. Experimental mass attenuat…
