Background
Guillain-Barre Syndrome (GBS) is the most prevalent acute peripheral polyneuropathy disorder. The disparities between populations and variations in the major risk factors highlight the importance of country-specific studies. This study aimed to report clinical characteristics and outcomes of ICU-admitted patients with GBS in an academic...

In this double-blind randomized clinical trial with 12 wee...
Background
: A number of different medications are used in combination with intrathecal bupivacaine for Cesarean section (C/S) anesthesia, but their relative efficacy has not been well established.
Objective
: To study the relative efficacy of adding either intrathecal fentanyl, intrathecal sufentanil, or intravenous acetaminophen-morphine-fentany...
Objective
This prospective study reports the epidemiological and clinical characteristics of Guillain-Barré syndrome (GBS) patients admitted to the intensive care units of Namazi Hospital, the largest referral center in the south of Iran, between March 20, 2016, to March 19, 2021.
Results
One hundred and thirty-two GBS patients were identified wit...
Studies show that regularly consuming whole grains reduce the risk of obesity and a wide range of chronic diseases. Despite this, studies reveal that students are consuming fewer whole grains. In the present study, we aimed to investigate the barriers to the consumption of whole grains among Iranian students. This cross-sectional study examined stu...
Background:
The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) has become the leading source of pneumonia outbreaks in the world. The present study aimed to compare the condition of intensive care unit (ICU) and non-ICU COVID-19 patients in terms of epidemiological and clinical features, laboratory findings, and outcomes in three cities across Iran.

Introduction: Coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) triggers an inflammatory reaction, leading to the development of myocardial damage and dysfunction. It is assumed that propofol, a general anesthetic agent, has a protective role against oxidative stress. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of p...
Despite increasing evidence for the association of food-based dietary patterns with breast cancer risk, knowledge about the shape of the relationship and the quality of meta-evidence are insufficient. We aimed to summarize the associations between food groups and risks of breast cancer. We performed a systematic literature search of the PubMed and...
Bariatric surgery is a metabolic surgery known to be an efficient treatment for weight loss, with adequate long-term maintenance. Interestingly, some studies have reported a reduction in branched chained amino acids (BCAAs) after bariatric surgery, which putatively contributes to post-surgical metabolic improvement. The current systematic review an...
Introduction: Pomegranate is a rich source of phytochemicals with high antioxidant effects, which has therapeutic effects in traditional and modern medicine. Pomegranate is effective in the prevention and treatment of cardiovascular diseases, diabetes, obesity, inflammatory diseases, infectious and microbial diseases, neurological disorders and imm...
BACKGROUND
Pomegranate has antioxidant, cardioprotective and anti‐inflammatory properties. We designed a crossover study aimed at determining if consumption of pomegranate juice (PJ) improves lipid profile and oxidative and inflammatory biomarkers of hemodialysis patients. Forty‐one hemodialysis patients were randomly assigned to one of two groups:...
Purpose
Polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) is one of the most common metabolic and endocrine disorders. Functional foods like pomegranate and probiotics are those that are considered to have beneficial effects on metabolic diseases beyond their basic nutritional value. So, we aimed to evaluate the effect of synbiotic pomegranate juice (SPJ) on card...
Background/objective:

Methods:
Throughout this prospective study, we investigated all severe ischemic stroke patients admitt...
Background: Pomegranate has antioxidant, cardioprotective, and anti-inflammatory properties. We questioned if pomegranate juice (PJ) benefits lipid profile and oxidative and inflammatory biomarkers of hemodialysis patients.
Methods: The study had a crossover design. Hemodialysis patients (n=41) were divided into two groups: PJ-treated group who re...
Considering that metaphoric statement indicates individuals' comprehension of health issues, we aimed to assess whether obese individuals' metaphorical expression of either self or their own lives is related to their dietary pattern. Two hundred and ten metabolically healthy adult men and women who attended diet clinics in Shiraz participated in th...

Methods and results:
A randomized, controlled, triple-blinded, parallel trial study was perform...
The results of human clinical trials examining the effects of conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) on leptin concentration are inconsistent. Our objective was to elucidate the role of conjugated linoleic acid supplementation on leptin through a systematic review and a meta-analysis of available randomized placebo-controlled trials (RCTs). We searched the...
