In the first group, normal rats have been fed a balanced diet served as the negative control group (C); in the second group, diabetic rats served as the control positive (C+). Diabetic rats in groups 3, 4, 5, and 6 received daily treatments of (200 and 400 mg kg -1 body weight (BW) EECC and EEPE, respectively.

There is growing interest in using alternative plants and herbal as medicines to treat and prevent hypertension. The study aims to explore the knowledge of Egyptian adults about hypertension and their perspectives to control it by consumption of capsicum, garlic, and turmeric. Methods: a cross-sectional study. The 1008 participants need to fill anonymous questionnaire (Google form). They answer questions related to sociodemographic characteristics, history of hypertension, dietary habits, and use of turmeric, capsicum, and garlic to control hypertension. The study revealed (76.1 %) had a positive family history of hypertension. The prevalence of hypertension was (18.9%) in the studied group as perceived. Their knowledge about hypertension was from reading (39.3%) and social media (30.4%). (31 %) reported a reduction of salt intake to control hypertension. (30.9%) of the studied group trusted natural remedies to control BP. Participants who consume chili, garlic, and turmeric regularly noticed changes in their blood pressure (25 %, 35 %, 37.5 %) respectively. There was a significant association between the frequency of garlic, chili, and turmeric consumed and a change in blood pressure P ≤ 0.05. Conclusion: knowledge about hypertension was from reading and social media, changing dietary habits such as decreasing salt intake, and trust in herbs such as chili, garlic, and turmeric to control hypertension. Regular consumption of herbs may have a potential effect in lowering blood pressure, further studies are recommended.","PeriodicalId":9493,"journal":{"name":"Bulletin of the National Nutrition Institute of the Arab Republic of Egypt","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"91385543","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The findings revealed that all indicators have highly significantly increased (malondialdehyde MDA, liver enzymes, lipid parameter) after CCL 4 injection, but when added EJL at different levels, all parameters were highly significantly decreased when compared with positive G, and the decreasing level was accompanied with increasing the EJL levels, this due to the phenolic and flavonoids compounds of EJL.

The main objective of this study was to study the effects of corn silk (Zea mays L.) powder, ethanolic extract, and corn silk tea on protecting rats from kidney failure and liver injury and their action on pathogenic bacteria. Corn silk ethanolic extract had the highest total phenolic content and total flavonoid content. Seventeen kinds of phenolic were detected; Ferulic acid has the highest amount of phenolic content. The corn silk extracts showed excellent phytochemical and antioxidant activity. Additionally, they have strong antimicrobial properties. The biological experiment was carried out on thirty male rats weighing (200 ± 5 g) for six weeks and divided into five groups, one of which was a negative control (Basel diet) 2, 3, 4, and 5 groups were given gentamicin by injection to induce liver and kidney toxicity, (group2) was a Positive control and the 3, 4and5 groups were treated with different corn silk treatments. The result demonstrated that corn silk and its extract enhanced antioxidant enzymes using superoxide dismutase (SOD), and Total Antioxidant Capacity (TAC), Lipid peroxidation was evaluated as Malondialdehyde (MDA), liver functions, kidney functions, and histopathology of the kidneys when compared with the positive group. Finally, this study found that corn silk has antimicrobial activity against pathogenic microorganisms as well as renoprotective and hepatoprotective effects against gentamycin-induced hepato-nephrotoxicity.","PeriodicalId":9493,"journal":{"name":"Bulletin of the National Nutrition Institute of the Arab Republic of Egypt","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"84416135","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, it is considered a ubiquitous environmental contaminant worldwide. Bisphenol-A acts like estrogen by interacting with the l estrogen receptors and is known to cause ovarian toxicity. The current investigation aimed to examine the effects of quercetin and melatonin on bisphenol-A–induced oxidative stress in ovarian and uterine tissues. Thirty-two female rats weighing (200±10 g) were divided into four groups. Group 1: intake standard diet; Group 2: bisphenol-A (120 mg/kg body weight) via oral gavage; Group 3: bisphenol-A (120 mg/kg body weight) + quercetin (50 mg/kg body weight via oral administration); and Group 4: bisphenol-A (120 mg/kg body weight) + melatonin (50 mg/kg body weight through oral). After a six-weeks experimental period, serum, ovaries, and uteruses were collected for hormonal analysis, ovarian and uterine analysis of oxidative stress biomarkers, and histopathological examination. The findings revealed that BPA decreased serum estradiol (E2) significantly. In addition, malondialdehyde (MDA) showed a significant increase. wheares ovarian and uterine antioxidant enzyme levels, including superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase (CAT), and glutathione peroxidase (GPx), were significantly diminished histological abnormalities in the ovaries and uterus were observed in the BPA group. However, the administration of melatonin and quercitrin significantly inhibited the debilitating effects of BPA on the reproduction of female rats. Moreover, melatonin and quercetin exerted protective effects against oxidative stress caused by BPA. In a conclusion, both quercetin and melatonin had protective effects against BPA-induced ovarian and uterine oxidative stress.","PeriodicalId":9493,"journal":{"name":"Bulletin of the National Nutrition Institute of the Arab Republic of Egypt","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"84719488","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
