Effect of magnetic field on food and water intake and body weight of spinal cord injured rats.

Abstract:

:Chronic (2 h/d x 8 weeks) exposure to magnetic field (MF; 50 Hz, 17.9 microT) in complete spinal cord (T13) transected rats restored food intake (FI), water intake (WI) and body weight (BW) which were decreased in the spinal cord injured rats. The results suggest a significant beneficial effect of chronic exposure to magnetic field of paraplegic rats.

  • Effect of tolmetin and its copper complex on wound healing.

    abstract::Dose matched comparison between copper complex of tolmetin(Tol-Cu) and tolmetin(Tol) was carried out in male albino rats bearing either sutured incision, dead space or excision wounds. Results showed that Tol significantly decreased tesile strength of incision and dead space wound. This effect was totally reversed by ...
