“…As can be seen, most of the effective components of these plants are from phenolic compounds, which besides having antifungal activities have mostly antioxidant properties [64][65][66][67][68][69]. Antioxidants are beneficial compounds which are effective against a wide variety of diseases [70][71][72][73][74][75]. Hence, each individual plant, other than for treating fungal infections, might be used for other diseases, such as gastrointestinal, cardiovascular and/or immunological disorders [76][77][78][79][80][81].…”

Fungi can evade the immune system via different processes, including recombination, mitosis, and expression of genes involved in oxidative stress responses. These processes can lead to chronic fungal diseases. Despite the growth of health care facilities, the incidence rate of fungal infections is still considerably high. Dermatophytes represent the main cause of cutaneous diseases. Dermatophytes attack keratinized tissues, such as nail, hair, and stratum corneum, due of their gravitation towards keratin, which leads to dermatophytosis. Medicinal plants have long been used to treat different diseases, and in the recent years, use of plant-based products to fight fungal, bacterial, and parasitic infections have attracted extensive attention. This is because the use of medicinal plants has many advantages, such as decreased costs and fewer side effects. This review article was conducted to report medicinal plants with anti-dermatophytosis properties. Seventy-six articles were retrieved from databases Google Scholar, PubMed, ScienceDirect, and Scopus. After exclusion of duplicate and irrelevant articles, 54 articles were selected. Of the remaining articles, 23 articles were screened and included in this study. According to the findings, Azadirachta indica,

“…Lim et al (2015) reported that a combination of aerobic, resistance and traditional Korean dance exercises for 12 weeks (three days a week) decreased the E-selectin and vascular adhesion molecules 1 in old women (22). In a study by Jalaly et al (2015), 12-week aerobic exercise reduced the levels of intercellular adhesion molecules 1 and E-selectin in patients with angina pectoris (23). In a study, Hamedinia and Haghighi (2007 investigated the effect of endurance and resistance exercise on circulating soluble adhesion molecules in obese men.…”

Objectives: The purpose of this study was to analyze the effect of eight weeks high intensity interval training on the levels of Eselection and P-selection.Methods: 16 obese young females were randomly assigned into two experimental (N = 8, age; 26.12 ± 3.1 years; height, 1.6 ± 0.06 meters; weight, 85.5 ± 16.6 kilograms) and control groups (N = 8; age, 31 ± 6.23 years; height, 1.6 ± 0.02 meters; weight, 76.2 ± 12.06 kilograms). Exercise protocol included eight weeks (three sessions per week, each session four to seven repetitions of running with maximum velocity in a 40-meter distance with 30 seconds' recovery) HIIT trainings. Fasting blood samples were taken 24h before and after the training. Elisa method was used to measure the dependent variables.Results: Analysis of data using student T-test showed no significant changes in the levels of E-selection and P-selection after trainings (P > 0.05). Conclusions:It was concluded that more duration of training is probably needed to have significant effect of HIIT trainings on the levels of E-selection and P-selection.

2018

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

Background: Constipation refers to difficult or delayed bowel emptying lasting 2 weeks or more and causing anxiety and distress in patients, and it is one of the most common problems in children. To treat constipation, therapeutic measures such as nutritional methods, feedback training, osmotic laxatives and stimulants, as well as stool volume enhancers, are used; however, each has its own problems and side effects. Medicinal plants have been shown to be effective in the treatment of many diseases, including constipation. Therefore, this review was conducted to report the medicinal plants effective for constipation. Methods: In the current review, eligible articles indexed from databases such as ISI (Web of Science), PubMed, Scopus, Islamic World Science Citation Center, Scientific Information Database, and Magiran were retrieved using the keywords ‘constipation’, ‘children constipation’, ‘baby’s and newborn constipation’, ‘medicinal plants’, and ‘traditional medicine’. Results: Available evidence showed that the medicinal plants Olea europaea, Phaseolus vulgaris, Prunus armeniaca, Brassica oleracea var. italica, Malus domestica, Linum usitatissimum, Aloe vera, Vitis vinifera, Foeniculum vulgare, Ficus carica, Ricinus communis, Sesamum indicum, and Descurainia sophia are some of the most important medicinal plants for the treatment of constipation in traditional medicine. Conclusion: Herbal plants are important for isolation/ preparation of new drugs in the treatment of constipation in children. In future studies, it may be beneficial to further understand and classify herbal plants/remedies, based on their mechanisms, as laxatives in the treatment of constipation.
