Read More Introduction: Lead is one of the environmental pollutants and it is among the most important causes of oxidative stress in biological tissues. In this study, the effects of lead acetate on testicular tissue destruction were investigated. Ferulic acid (FA), which is an antioxidant and reduces free radicals, is expected to be effective in improving testicular function in lead-infected rats.Materials and methods: For this study, 24 white male Wistar rats, categorized in four groups: control, lead acetate toxicity, FA control, and lead-Ferulic Acetate, were treated in the laboratory for 56 days. At the end of the treatment period, the rats were anesthetized and after blood sampling, they were analysed. Then, histological analysis was performed after testicular resection. To evaluate sperm characteristics, the distal part of the testicular epididymis was finally cut and fragmented.Research Findings: In examination of testicular tissue sections in the samples, it was observed that the mean diameter of seminiferous tubules in samples with lead acetate poisoning was decreased more than the control, whereas in the group with FA treatment, the diameter was increased. Increased bleeding in the space between seminiferous tubules and tissue vacuolation were also recorded in the lead acetate group, but it was improved in the treatment group. The number, motility, percentage of normal sperm, and survival percentage of sperm which had a significant decrease in the lead acetate group, and were increased in the FA-treated group. Likewise, testosterone levels, which had a significant drop in the lead acetate poisoning group, were increased in FA-treated group.Discussion: The result showed that lead acetate, with its destructive effects on testicular tissue, reduces the number of healthy and mature sperms, and ultimately leads to mice fertility of these mice, but ferulic acid which acts as an antioxidant has recovery effects against lead acetate.

Read More Background and Objective: Vaccines are medical devices used for boosting the health of people, especially children. This study was performed to determine the prevalence of the side effects of a new pentavalent vaccine in 2- to 6-month-old children in Ilam.Materials and Methods: This descriptive cross-sectional study was performed on 2-6-month-old children for inoculating the pentavalent vaccine. A questionnaire containing queries on the age of child, parents’ education, contact number, injection date, gestational age, the underlying diseases, failure to thrive (FTT), and side effects (diarrhea, vomiting, nausea, redness, fever, intense crying, restlessness, drowsiness, stiffness, etc.).Results: Of the children, 35.9% were two months old, 31.8% were four months old, and 32.3% were six months old. Boys and girls constituted 53% and 47% of children, respectively. Regarding mothers’ education, 54.5% had lower than diploma degrees, and 6.1% had academic education. Regarding fathers’ education, 13.2% had lower than diploma, and 12% had academic degrees. Most of the children (94.4%) had no underlying diseases, and 5.6% of them suffered from the underlying diseases including reflux (1.6%), anemia (2.3%), favism (0.9%), fever and convulsion (0.7%), and hypothyroidism (0.2%). The most common complications were fever (68.1%), skin redness (56.1%), pain (43.8%), and restlessness (24.7%). Fever (69.2% vs. 66.8%, P>0.05), skin redness (65.2% vs. 45.8%, P<0.05), vomiting (10.5% vs. 3.3%, P<0.05), and stiffness (6.6% vs. 3.3%, P>0.05) were more common in boys than girls, respectively. On the other hand, restlessness (35.8% vs. 14.8%, P<0.05) was significantly higher in girls than in boys.Conclusion: According to our results, fever, skin redness, and pain were the most common complications. Fever was more common in 2-month-old boys, and pain was more observed in 6-month-old girls. Most of the side effects were transient and disappeared upon a week. No remarkable contraindications were reported, confirming the safety of the vaccine.

Read More Background: Hypericum perforatum is a flowering plant from the Hypericaceae family. This herb has warm and dry nature based on traditional medicine and includes many healing properties like noticeable effects on mild and moderate depression cases. Cyclophosphamide is used to treat various types of cancers and autoimmune diseases with the side effect of fertility reduction. We studied the effects of hydroalcoholic extract of Hypericum perforatum on the spermatogenesis process of cyclophosphamide-treated male mice. Methods: In this experimental study, 70 adult BALB/c male mice weighing 26-28 g were randomly divided into 7 groups of 10, including, a control group (no injection), a sham group (normal saline), and three experimental groups which were treated with 5 mg/kg body weight of cyclophosphamide and also, doses of 50, 100, and 150 mg/kg body weight of hydroalcoholic extract, respectively. In addition, a cyclophosphamide group (5 mg/kg body weight) and an extract group (100 mg/kg body weight) were evaluated. All the injections were performed intraperitoneally for 10 consecutive days. After two weeks, blood samples were collected for a testosterone level examination. Testes and epididymis were removed for tissue sectioning and were stained with the H&E method. Data were analyzed using one-way ANOVA and Tukey post-hoc test. Results: Results indicated that taking 5 mg/kg body weight of cyclophosphamide decreased mouse and testis weight and had a detrimental effect on the spermatogenesis process in the way that spermatogenic cell counts, and seminiferous and epididymis tubules diameter were decreased in comparison with the control and sham groups. But 100 and 150 mg/kg body weight doses of the extract with 5 mg/kg body weight of cyclophosphamide showed a significant increase (P≤0.05 and p≤0.01) on the mentioned parameters compared to the positive control group. Conclusion: Therefore, it seems that the main component in this herb such as hypericin could decrease the detrimental effects of cyclophosphamide on mouse fertility.
