Lactoferrin, an iron-binding protein, has been proposed to act as an anti-infective agent and has been used as a diagnostic
marker in several inflammatory disorders. A sensitive enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay developed earlier was used for lactoferrin
estimation in cervical mucus. A brief study was undertaken to observe if lactoferrin is detectable in cervical mucus and to
correlate its level with reproductive tract infection, if present. One hundred and twelve cervical mucus samples were collected
from healthy as well as infected females. Some of these females were using CuT-200 intrauterine copper devices for contraception.
Women were at different phases of their menstrual cycle. The presence of detectable amount of lactoferrin in cervical mucus
was confirmed. The average level of lactoferrin in cases either with clinical symptoms of cervicitis or with proven infection
by PAP smear was significantly (t=7.6, P<0.01) higher than the normal controls. CuT users have higher (P<0.01) mean level
of lactoferrin than corresponding non-users. 相似文献

Platelets play important role in precipitating ischaemic myocardial syndromes in many ways. One of the consequences of ischaemic
diseases is excessive generation of oxygen derived free radicals that have numerous pathophysiological consequences. Platelet
pro-oxidant enzyme, xanthine oxidase is one of the sources of generation of free radicals. In the present paper, we report
the effect of administration of vitamin E along with aspirin on the levels of platelet xanthine oxidase and extent of free
radical mediated damage in the patients reperfused after myocardial infarction.
Our findings show that administration of 400 mg. vitamin E for six days along with 80 mg. aspirin has an excellent anti-oxidant
effect as evidenced by reduced platelet xanthine oxidase activity and lowering of malondialdehdye (MDA) levels which is an
index of the extent of free radical mediated damage. 相似文献

A Structural Model of Educational Aspirations 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
The purpose of this study was to develop and test a model to predict educational aspirations of Canadian adolescents. Participants were a national sample of 4,034 students from grades 8–13 (2,037 males, 1,973 females). Results of a modified structural model included three sets of influences: a) a background factor comprised of parental occupation and education; b) a family involvement factor consisting of parental personal and school-based involvement with adolescents; and c) a personal factor with school marks, school and course perceptions, extracurricular reading and parental educational expectations as indicator measures. Educational aspirations was the main outcome variable. Results indicated that the personal factor had a strong direct influence on educational aspirations ( = 1.17, p < .001, R2 = .76). The effects of the background and family involvement factors on educational aspirations were mediated through the personal factor. Additional analyses performed in order to test the relationships obtained in the model, revealed several significant interactions amongst the three predictor factors and educational aspirations. The findings emphasize the importance of efforts to enhance the educational aspirations of adolescents through targeted change of modifiable environmental and personal factors. 相似文献
