Abstract: There has been an increase in smoking habits in Indonesia and some other developing countries. The main component of cigarette is nicotine of 50% which is absorbed through the respiratory tract, mouth mucus, and skin. The effect of cigarette smoke can spoil sperm viability and spermatogenesis. Free radicals contained in cigarette smoke can cause oxidative stress, oxidative stress is a major factor of infertility in men. Oxidative stress is caused by an increase in ROS (Reactive Oxygen Species) which will leads to agglutination of sperm that can decrease sperm count. This study was using a completely randomized factorial design. The study subjects are 60 male mice, which were randomly divided into 5 group. The first group was the who received treatment (exposure to cigarette smoke in 0 minutes), the second group.........

Abstract: Background: Robot-assisted therapy is one of the new technologies that used in rehabilitation of stroke patients for improving the process of recovery and enhancing functional activity. Objective: The aim of the current study was to investigate the effect of robotic assisted training on the hand function in stroke patients. Methods: Twenty male patients with stroke were selected from king Fahd hospital in Jeddah participated in this study. The patients were randomly assigned into two equal groups; control group and study group. All patients were assessed for functional performance by manual function test and for pinch and grip strength by hand held dynamometer. Both groups were treated with traditional physical therapy program. Additionally the study group received robotic assisted training...........

Abstract: A study entitled to evaluate the knowledge regarding prevention of food poisoning among adolescents in selected pre university colleges of Belgaum city, Karnataka Background: Food is an important and basic biological need of man. Food is the prime necessity of life. It is a good culture medium and a potential carrier of infection. The food we eat is digested and assimilated in the body and used for its maintenance and growth. Food also provides energy for doing work. Man has exhibited much thought and foresight in cultivating a variety of grains, fruits, vegetables, nuts and oilseeds and in rearing birds and animals for use as food. To plan important interventions, it is necessary to find out the prevalence and factors associated with them.
