Tension-type headache (TTH) is one of the most common and costly primary types of headache in clinical practice, with an unknown etiology. This study assessed to investigate oxidative and antioxidative status in patients with chronic tension-type headache (CTTH), and to evaluate possible effect of

The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between oxidative stress and chronic daily headache (CDH) in children. Although there are reports that oxidative injury may play a role in the pathophysiology of some neurologic disorders, such as migraine and epilepsy, by disrupting or

BACKGROUND The pathophysiology of migraine and other headaches is still unknown, and research is mostly done on neurotransmitter, biochemical and vascular mechanisms. The aim of this study was to examine the role of antioxidant enzymes in the pathophysiology of headache in the interictal period of

BACKGROUND Fibromyalgia (FM) is a chronic pain syndrome with unknown etiology and a wide spectrum of symptoms such as allodynia, debilitating fatigue, joint stiffness and migraine. Recent studies have shown some evidences demonstrating that oxidative stress is associated to clinical symptoms in FM

The present study investigated the pesticide induced adverse health effects, hematological and biochemical alterations among agriculture workers. A cross sectional study of 51 agriculture workers and 54 unexposed subjects was carried out to evaluate hematological and biochemical alterations in

The first outbreak of Zika virus (ZIKV) infection in the Americas, especially in Brazil, was reported in 2015. Fever, headache, rash, and conjunctivitis are the common symptoms of ZIKV infection. Unexpected clinical outcomes, such as microcephaly and Guillain-Barré syndrome, have also been reported.

Globicatella sanguinis is catalase-negative, alpha-hemolytic, nonmotile, facultative anaerobic grampositive cocci, identified as a new species in 1992. Since the colony morphology in blood agar and microscopic appearance resembles streptococci, it is thought that some of the isolates previously

BACKGROUND Achromobacter xylosoxidans (AX) is a non-fermentative aerobic gram-negative bacillus. It is an opportunistic pathogen and the causative agent of various infections. We report an original case of late posttraumatic meningitis due to AX denitrificans. METHODS An 83-year-old man was

Little is known about the role of oxidative stress in the pathogenesis of pediatric migraine. The objective of the present study was to investigate, during a headache-free period, the activities of erythrocyte antioxidant enzymes in children and adolescents diagnosed with migraine. In all, 47

BACKGROUND Aerva lanata (L.) of the family Amaranthaceae is a Nigerian medicinal plant used traditionally for the management of lithiasis, headache, renal disorder, haematemesis, bronchitis, nasal bleeding, cough, scorpion stings, fractures and spermatorrhoea. Studies that show the pharmacological

BACKGROUND Xanthii seeds commonly called Cang-Erzi were used as a traditional Chinese medicine for treating sinusitis, headache due to rheumatism and skin pruritus. OBJECTIVE In order to evaluate the actions of this plant, studies were performed on antioxidant, antinociceptive, and anti-inflammatory

The fruit of Xanthium strumarium L. (Cang-Er-Zi) is a traditional Chinese medicine that is used in curing nasal diseases and headache according to the Chinese Pharmacopoeia. However, clinical utilization of Xanthium strumarium is relatively limited because of its toxicity. The present investigation

OBJECTIVE To study high altitude environment affecting on worker's health METHODS Using the cohort study, the altitude reaction was investigated and the WBC, RBC, Hb and oxygenation indexes were measured on workers in several periods, namely, acclimatization period, initially arrived high altitude

An influence of intermittent hypoxia (IH) on antioxidant enzymes activity was investigated in 42 patients, aged 48.2 +/- 1.8 years, with 1-2-nd stage of dyscirculatory encephalopathy (DE) in the presence of I-II stage of arterial hypertension (AH). Patients with arterial pressure below 145/85 mmHg
