In this study, (85) blood specimens were collected from (85) patients with suspected septicemia, age ranged between 1to 28 days from both sexes (53 males and 32 females) during the period from November 2014 to March 2015.The results of this study revealed that (52.9%) are presented with late onset sepsis (infected during 7 - 28 days of their life), while the rest (47.1%) of the neonates are presented with early onset sepsis (infected during the first seven days of their life). The collected samples were investigated for bacterial isolation. Bacterial culture was positive in (7.06%) patients versus (92.9%) patients revealed a negative bacterial culture. The most common types of bacteria isolated were three isolates of Klebsiella spp. (50.0%), followed by one isolate Staphylococcus aureus (16.67%), one isolate E. coli (16.67%), and one isolate Enterobacter spp. (16.67%).The virulence factors of some bacterial isolates in this study were studied. The capsule was present in all bacteria isolated in this study (100%) except for Enterobacter spp. which did not possess the capsule.Colonization factor antigens were detected in all isolates. It was found that only Klebsiella spp. and E. coli (100%) have the ability to produce CFAI and CFAIII. Whereas Enterobacter spp. and Staphylococcus aureus (100%) have the ability to produce colonization factor antigen I only. The results also showed that all isolates of Klebsiella spp. and Enterobacter spp. did not produce hemolysin, while all isolates of Staphylococcus aureus and E. coli were able to produce hemolysin.Extracellular protease was also investigated. It was found that (100%) of all bacteria isolated in this study were able to produce extracellular protease.Biofilm formation was investigated in all bacterial species, and the results showed that all isolates of Gram negative bacteria and Gram positive bacteria form a biofilm.The ability of some bacteria to produce bacteriocin was tested and the results showed that E. coli and Klebsiella spp. were able to produce bacteriocin.In - vitro, the susceptibility of bacteria towards some antibiotics included in this study revealed that the amikacin and kanamycin are the most effective antibiotics to different types of pathogenic bacteria. Finally, molecular detection for bacterial sepsis was done by using specific primers (16 sRNA, rpoB and its). It was found that 16 sRNA genes were present in (20%) of samples and rpoB gene present in (18.8%). While its gene used for detection of fungi revealed negative results in all samples.

المستخلص: تعد فحوصات وظائف الرئتين من الوسائل المفيدة جدا لاغراض التشخيص والمتابعة والبحث العلمي للاصحاء ومرضى الجهاز التنفسي. وابسط تلك الفحوصات واكثرها معلومة هو الفحص السبايرومتري الذي يتضمن قياس السعة الحيوية القسرية (FVC) , وحجم الزفير القسري في الثانية الا | Lung function tests are very useful diagnostic, follow up and research measures for healthy and respiratory compromised subjects. The simplest, yet the most informative, lung function tests are the spirometric tests.They involve the forced vital capacity (FVC), the forced expiratory volume in first second (FEV1) and the forced expiratory volume ratio (FEV%). Several types of devices are used to perform spirometric tests based on the measurement of lung volumes and their subdivisions. Lung volumes, hence, are represented by the volume of expired air. There was a controversy about the difference between body and ambient temperatures which may extremely affect gas volume , but this is thought to be solved by temperature correction. Temperature correction, however, may not be the precise solution in extremely fluctuating environmental temperatures. A fixed amount of expired gas has a constant mass despite the changes in pressure or volume as is implied by the law of conservation of mass in a closed system by Antoine Lavoisier. The aim of this study is to construct and evaluate a simple device called expiratory gas mass device as a reliable, reproducible, accurate and convenient tool to substitute Vitalograph spirometer as a measure of lung function in healthy Iraqi subjects and testing the hypothesis that expired gas mass could significantly and acceptably alternate or conjugate its volume as measures of lung function. The design of the study is a cross sectional study. The statistically required number of participants was decided by a professional statistician to be 70 healthy subjects. However, 300 healthy subjects are included in the present research to cover the need for subgrouping (146 male and 154 female) aged 20 - 50 years (31.84 ± 9.28 years). The male and female were classified into three age groups for each one, ten years interval was considered to be suitable for classifying subjects.Subjects with abnormal lung function such as smokers were excluded. A uniform case sheet was assigned for every participant in the study which includes, name, gender, age, weight, height, smoking habits, residence, cultural status, socioeconomic status, present and past medical history, family history of respiratory illnesses. They were asked to perform the forced expiratory maneuver through the standardized spirometer and then through the newly constructed gas mass device.The accuracy (systematic error) and reproducibility (random error) were tested for the constructed gas mass device.A comparison between forced vital capacity (FVC) and adjusted gas mass (AGM) was made on two main groups , the male group and female group, both of them were subdivided to three age groups.The results revealed that there were no significant differences in values of FVC and AGM measured by standard Vitalograph spirometer and gas mass device respectively. Regression lines indicated that there were strong positive correlations between gas mass (GM) and FVC in male and female. Separate data for male and female are processed and the results indicated that FVC values and GM (or AGM) values are significantly higher in male than in female , P?0.05. Regression lines indicated that there was a negative correlation between age and both of FVC and GM, a positive correlation between height and both of FVC and GM and a weak positive correlation between weight and both of FVC and GM. From the present study, it can concluded that gas mass device is simple, portable and easily handled device. It is also reproducible and accurate device for the measurement of GM in normal subjects.

المستخلص: كائن Bacillus cereus موجود في كل مكان وهوممرض منقول بالاغذية والذي يمكن ان يسبب نوعين من امراض الجهاز الهضمي : القيء والاسهال. في هذه الدراسه, تم جمع 140 عينه غذائية شملت (الرز, اغذية الاطفال، الدقيق، منتجات الالبان، اللحوم، الحليب , التوابل) جمعت عشوائيا | Bacillus cereus is a ubiquitous organism and a potential foodborne pathogen that can cause two types of gastrointestinal diseases : emesis and diarrhea. In this study, a total of 140 food samples included (rice, infant food, flour, dairy products, meat, milk powder and spices) were collected randomly from restaurants, food stores and various sale points in the local markets of the Hilla province during the period of November 2014 to April 2015 in attempt to isolate of Bacillus cereus from these samples and detection the prevalence of diarrheal (hbl and nhe) and emetic (ces) enterotoxins genes by using Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR). All bacterial isolates were identified by cultural, microscopic and biochemical examinations. The results showed that 56 (40%) of samples showed positive growth for Bacillus cereus. The antibiotic sensitivity test of some isolates to 10 antibiotics was studied. It has been found that all B. cereus isolates were resistant to Ampicillin, Ampiclox, Cefotaxime, and Cephalexin, while all isolates were sensitive to Gentamycin, Ciprofloxacine and Chloramphenicol, but most of them showed different rate of sensitivity to one or more of antibiotics such as Neomycin 90% and 80% for both Tetracycline and Erythromycin. Polymerase Chain Reaction technique (PCR) was used to detect the ability of bacterial isolates to encode two types of enterotoxin genes, diarrheal and emetic genes. The results showed that 4(7.14 %) of isolates harboured hblA gene, 16 (28.57%) hblC, 5(8.92 %) hblD, 46(82.14%) nheA, 24(42.85%) nhe B, 26 (46.42%) nheC and 3(5.35%) of the isolates harboured Ces gene. On the other hand, through using PCR it was found that nhe gene was present in most isolates, while hbl gene was variable among the studied isolates. Moreover, the Ces gene was found only in isolates being isolated from rice samples, while it was not found in other types of samples.

المستخلص: مبدا الدراسة : الصدفية مرض جلدي شائع ذو علامات جلدية ظاهرة، يتميز بالتهاب مزمن للجلد مع اختلاف في نضوج الخلايا الكيراتينية، التي تزيد من سمك الجلد. عملية تكوين الاوعية الدموية (Angiogenesis) هي المسؤول بالدرجة الاساس عن تطور افة الصدفية، واحد اهم عوامل تكو | Background : Psoriasis is a common skin disease with extra - cutaneous manifestations. It characterized by chronic inflammation of the skin with changes in the maturation of keratinocytes, which manifested by the hyperproliferation of the epidermis. Angiogenesis process is a central regulator of development psoriasis lesion and one of the important angiogenesis factor is vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF).A major site of oxidative stress occurs in the skin due to reactive oxygen species, which play an important role in inflammatory skin diseases such as psoriasis. Objectives : The aim of this presented study is to evaluating the effect of MTX drug on psoriatic lesions by calculating psoriasis area and severity index (PASI) for three months. In addition, investigate the changes of the level of serum VEGF, antioxidants (GSH and SOD) and lipid profile, which include (TC, TG, HDL, LDL and VLDL). As well as, hematological assessment such as (RBCs, Hb, PCV, RBCs indices, ESR and WBCs) in patients with psoriasis before and after (one and three months) from treatment with oral methotrexate therapy in comparison to their levels in healthy control persons. Materials and Methods : This study was a cohort study in which a total of 80 subjects, half of them(40) with psoriasis (25 male and 15 female) had selected randomly from Marjan Medical City in AL - Hilla city and the other half (40)as healthy controls (21 male and 19 female). These subjects collected during the period from 28th/ October /2014 until 15th/ August/ 2015. Physical examination (body mass index) done to each subject that enrolled in the study. A clinical assessment of psoriasis disease activity in psoriasis patients and methotrexate efficacy was done with the Disease Activity Index (DAI) represented by PASI score. Blood collection was obtained from all psoriatic patients and control to use in determine the level of all biochemical parameter such as VEGF, GSH SOD and lipid profile , as well as hematological investigation which include RBCs, Hb, PCV, RBCs indices, ESR and WBCs. Result : The results of this work showed, The effect of systemic methotrexate therapy on psoriasis lesion by significant reduction of PASI levels after treatment and by a significant mean difference in psoriasis area severity index before and after (one and three months) from treatment in psoriatic lesions (P?0.05). Also, no significant differences (p> 0.05) between the mean of age for psoriatic patients group (male and female) and healthy control group (males and females). The body mass index shows significant increase (P?0.05) in psoriasis patients than control group. The serum of VEGF level was significant increase in patients with psoriasis when compare with control through study periods, and there was significant reduction in the level of VEGF in psoriasis patients as compared its level before and after treatment with MTX for one and three months (P?0.05). While, the level of GSH and SOD significant decrease in patients than control ,during the treatment with MTX ,there was significant difference increase in the level of GSH of patients as compare with baseline level (before treatment) (P?0.05). In addition, the level of SOD of patients appear there was no statically difference before treatment and after treatment with MTX. The results of the present study also show a significant increase (P?0.05) in total cholesterol(TC), triglycerides(TG), low density lipoprotein - cholesterol (LDL) and very low density lipoprotein - cholesterol(VLDL) concentration, while found a significant decrease (P?0.05) in level of HDL in serum of psoriasis group compared with those of the healthy control group. When compare between patients during follow up periods, found there was no significant different of level of TC, TG, LDL and VLDL between psoriasis patients in period before treatment when compared with after one months from treatment with MTX (P>0.05). While there is a significant increase between patients before treatment compare with after three months, and after one month from treatment compare with after three months from treatment with MTX (P? 0.05). The level of HDL in psoriatic patients was significant increase at (P? 0.05) before treatment as comparing with after (one month and three months) from treatment with MTX, but there is no significant difference between patients after one from treatment as compared to with after three month from treatment with methotrexate (P> 0.05). The result of hematological for the results of study showed , there is a significant decrease (P? 0.05) in RBCs counts, Hb, PCV and RBCs indices compared with healthy control. While significant increase in total WBCs counts and ESR in psoriatic patients in all periods of follow up periods as compare with control. When compare the RBCs, Hb, PCV, RBCs indices of patients in all periods before and after (one and three months) from treatment with MTX, found there is no significant difference among them at (P> 0.05). While the result of WBCs count show significant decrease (P?0.05) between patient before treatment and after three months from treatment with MTX , and between after one month from treatment with MTX as compare with after three month from treatment , but there is no significant difference between before treatment compare to after one month from treated with MTX. The results of ESR of psoriasis patient show significant decrease (P? 0.05) between before treatment as compare with after three months from treatment with MTX , and after one month from treatment compare to after three month from treatment.While there is no any significant difference between patient before treatment compare with after one month from treatment with methotrexate (P>0.05). Conclusion : The vascular endothelial growth factor have play important role in the evaluation of psoriasis severity, oral methotrexate therapy have efficacy upon serum levels of vascular endothelial growth factor. Efficacy of oral methotrexate therapy on psoriatic patient’s treatment, have there was faster remission of psoriatic lesions and this reflect the immune - modulatory anti - inflammatory role of The MTX in psoriasis patient.

المستخلص: الخلفية : في عام1978 ولادة الطفل الاول في المملكة المتحدة من قبل تقنيات المساعدة على الانجاب، ازداد كلا من التقنيات المتطورة التي تستخدم لعلاج العقم وعدد مراكز الاخصاب التي توفر خدمات التقنيات المساعدة على الانجاب بشكل كبير في كثير من البلدان,وتشمل التقنيا | Background : In 1978 the first baby born in the U.K by the techniques of assisted reproduction. both the use of advanced technologies to overcome infertility and the number of fertility clinics providing ART services have increased steadily in many countries. ART includes fertility treatments in which both eggs and sperm are handled in the laboratory (in vitro fertilization (IVF), intra cytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI), gamete intrafallopian transfer (GIFT), zygote intrafalopian transfer(ZIFT), and related procedures). Women who undergo ART procedures are more likely to deliver multiple - birth infants than those who conceive naturally because more than one embryo might be transferred during a procedure. Multiple births pose substantial risks to both mothers and infants, including pregnancy complications like, preterm delivery, and low birth weight infants. Caesarean section, pregnancy induce hypertension, gestational diabetes, congenital malformation.Objective : To assess the impact of assisted reproductive technology on pregnancy outcome and compare them to those of natural conception. Methodology : The present study employs a descriptive - purposive design carried out for pregnant women after assisted reproductive technology attending labor wards of Baghdad Hospitals, Kamal AL - samarae Hospital, Baghdad Teaching Hospital, AL Imamain AL - Kadhmien Teaching Hospital, Private Nursing House Hospital, AL - Elwya Maternity Teaching Hospital, AL Imam Ali Hospital, AL - Karkh Maternity Hospital for, and Ibn AL Baladi Hospital. The period for collecting the data was four months (1st February 2014 to the 1st Jun 2014). The study sample divided into two groups : 100 women conceived after assisted reproductive technology(study group), 100 women conceived naturally (control group). Validity through a panel of (15) experts and the reliability of the questionnaire is determined through the pilot study. For the purpose of the present study a questionnaire format was constructed. The data has been managed and analyzed by using descriptive and inferential statistics. Results : An increased pregnancy complication as well as higher risk of obstetrical, perinatal, and neonatal complications was observed in ART compared with natural pregnancy included in this study. The women conceived by ART were older than those conceived naturally (30.86_+ 4.76 vs 25.85 - +7.78) ART pregnancies were associated with a higher risk of early pregnancy bleeding (8% vs 42%), antepartum heamorrhage (4% vs 13%), placenta previa (6% vs 15%), pregnancy - induced hypertension (29% vs 46%), gestational diabetes (7% vs 20%), preterm rupture of membrane (11% vs 25%), preeclampsia (3% vs 12%), obesity during pregnancy (47% vs 65% ), preterm delivery (16% vs 48%), cesarean section( 67% vs 100%), low birth weight (12% vs 32.5%), multiple birth (twin 11% and twin tri 7% vs.0.0%), the period of the newborn child stay in the neonatal intensive care unit (15 days 47.8% vs. 0.0%)Conclusion : The pregnancies after ART are associated with higher risk of multiple pregnancies, obstetrical, perinatal, as well as neonatal complications in comparison with natural pregnancy. Recommendations : Educate mothers who become pregnant using the techniques of assisted reproduction importance they received of their children examined periodically, with long - term developmental follow - up on a regular basis, to exclude late complication of the pregnancy outcome. Emphasis should be on the birth of healthy infants primarily using Embryo single transfer (EST),to reduce the incidence of low birth weight and preterm delivery.

This requires nurturing the students with the necessary competencies that will facilitate their transition from nursing students to qualified staff nurses. Self - directed learning is of great importance to the professional development of nursing students. It enables them to expand the knowledge and enhance the quality of their practice. Nursing students must keep abreast of new information, current and emerging trends, medical technology and related scientific and professional publications to be able to function effectively in a constantly changing workplace. Self - directed learning helps nursing students remain flexible, open to change, current in practice skills, and at the same time it helps in the growth of the students’ confidence and professionalism. Objectives : The aim of the study is to evaluate the students' self - directed learning laboratory practices related to administration of medications procedures (Intramuscular injection, Intravenous injection and oral medication ). Methodology : Across sectional design was has been carried out at three colleges of nursing in the south of Iraq and used in the present study from 23th February 2015 to 15th May , 2015. To evaluate nursing students' self - directed learning in applying laboratory practices related to administration of medication in southern of Iraq. The present study was conducted in southern Iraq at three nursing colleges which included (Missan, Thi - Qar and Basra nursing college ). Purposive sample was selected which consist of (90) first year of nursing students( 45) male and (45) female and the sample contained (30) students from each college after the consent of the participants. The check - list consists of two parts, the first part is general information about the study sample of nursing students (4 items) and the second part is an ideal observation check list which includes (73) items including three procedure technique which consists of the intramuscular injection ( 25 )items, intravenous injection (28) items and oral medications (20) items that concerned with students self - directed learning laboratory practices technique. Each procedure has three steps of strategy technique (preparation , equipments and procedure ) which are considered important steps that must be performed by students. The items concerning students self - directed learning laboratory practices are rated on three levels likert scale; (satisfy , need more practice and unsatisfied ). Reliability of the evaluation check - list competency is determined through the use of check - list is based on Cronbach's practices. The instrument validity is determined through a panel of (15) experts.The present study are analyzed through the application of two statistical approaches. A descriptive statistical approach includes (frequency, percentage, Mean of score (M.S.) and standard deviation (SD) and an Inferential statistical approach includes (Chi - Square,t - test, ANOVA). Results : The result of the study indicate that the majority of the first nursing students' satisfaction in general have high level of the self - directed learning in laboratory practices. During application the result show that s (96.7%) intravenous , (93.3%) intramuscular and (88.9%) oral medications administration and also the study declared non significant relationship between self - directed - learning (students lab practice) and their demographic data. Recommendations : This study recommended that : . 1 - Introduce a policy and supportive plans to assist and encourage personnel of every nursing students to the colleges.2 - Extensively apply self - directed learning as a method of learning for their professional and self - development and develop visual aids for learning and set up comprehensive.3 - Update the sources of learning for example public library , the internet service, communications room and/or educational technology room. 4 - Facilitate suitable environment for nursing students in searching for information they need for learning and self - development. 5 - Every these recommendation addressed to ministry of higher education/ colleges of nursing.

المستخلص: اجريت دراسة وصفية لتقييم رضا المسنين باتجاه الرعاية الصحية في دار المسنين في مدينة بغداد للفترة من 26 تشرين الثاني 2013 الى3 ايلول 2014، تهدف الدراسة الى تقييم رضا المسنين باتجاه الرعاية الصحية من خلال مجالات الرعاية مثل (طلب الرعاية الصحية، تناول الع | A descriptive study concerning the assessment of elderly's satisfaction toward health care at geriatric home in Baghdad city. From November 26th, 2013 to September 3rd, 2014. is to assess the elderly's satisfaction toward health care through the use of the domains of health care seeking, nutrient intake, physical activity, drug use, psychological aspect, social aspect, and to find out the relationship between elderly's satisfaction and their demographic characteristics of age, gender, marital status, level of education, health state, and economic status. The selection of the sample through a non - probability 'purposive sample' is (N=86) from elderly aged 65 years and over who reside in geriatric home. Data are collected through interview using questionnaire tool and analyzed through the application of descriptive and inferential statistical analysis which reveal, the reliability of the questionnaire which is determined through a pilot study and the validity is achieved through a panel of (18) experts. The study results showed demographic characteristics analysis of the sample concerned, the large number of the sample that was with age (65 - 69) years (34.9%) and also showed that majority of study sample (59.3%) are men and the remaining are women, and with regard to marital status it was found that many of them are widows and their percentage (38.4%) Regarding subject level of education, the greater number of them are illiterate and they are accounted for (48.8%) In addition, the majority of the elderly who suffer from chronic disease are (73.3) while the majority of them have no previous surgery and their percentage (58.1%) Regarding housing ownership (74.4%) they are absent or (do not have a house), and most of the elderly's monthly income is (53.5%) insufficient. The present study concluds : the vast majority of the elderly population are illiterate who do not have opportunity for better education. In addition, the elderly were generally satisfied with health care, and it was the best domain of elderly satisfaction is the nutrient intake and the less domain of health care seeking. While the study showed that, the demographic characteristics of elderly had no impact upon their overall satisfaction toward health care except the level of education. Therefore, that gender affects the satisfaction of the elderly in seeking of health care. In addition, the monthly income effects on elderly satisfaction with nutrient intake. As well as the age and suffering from chronic diseases affecting the physical activity domain and with level of elderly satisfaction in this aspect there is an impact of each gender, level of education and monthly income of the elderly on their satisfaction towards the social domain, the age affects the elderly satisfaction with psychological domain. The study recommended Promotion of health care provided to the elderly especially with regard to access to health care and the practice of physical activity. The Ministry of Labor and Social Affairs, in cooperation with the Ministry of Health can establish a special health center for the elderly to help them to get health care. As well as the establishment of a sports hall equipped to encourage the elderly to exercise of daily activities sports. Work of collective entertainment trips continuously to improve elderly mental and social state. Study should be conduct to assess satisfaction among the elderly residents in geriatric homes and others in their own about health care services (comparative study).

المستخلص: امراض الشرايين التاجية السبب الرئيسي لمعظم حالات العجز والوفاة في الدول المتقدمة. العمر, الجنس, السمنة, اختلال مستويات الدهون, التدخين, ارتفاع ضغط الدم, مرض السكر, الالتهابات, والاكسدة الضارة من اهم عوامل الخطورة الرئيسية للمرض. مجموعة من الدراسات اوحت ب | Coronary artery diseases are the most important causes of mortality and morbidity in many developing countries. Age, gender, obesity , lipid disturbance, smoking, hypertension, diabetes mellitus, inflammations and oxidative stress are considered as major risk factors of disease. Many of studies suggest that there is association between blood groups and risk factors of coronary artery diseases.Objective : The aims of study are to find if there is an association between blood groups and CADs and to study some of the causes that may be lead to this association. Also, it aims to determine the type of relation between some important factors such as, C - reactive protein (CRP), advanced glycation end products(AGEPs), and glutathione peroxidase - 3 (GPX - 3) with blood groups and coronary artery diseases. Materials & Methods : Ninety persons included in the study (60 as patients and 30 as healthy controls). Where the patients suffering from CAD, the controls are free from this diseases. Their ages ranged between 25 - 70 years old and they were divided into four groups according to the blood groups (A, B, AB, and O). This study is based on case control study done in Al - Sadder Teaching hospital (Cardiac Center) in Al - Najaf Al - Ashraf city from December 2012 - to October 2013. Some information were taken from each person in the study like, name, age, sex, address, weight and height. Finally and after getting permissions, the blood group was analyzed for each person in the study, then the sera were collected from those 90 persons and analyzed by using enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) for CRP, AGEPs, and GPX - 3, meanwhile for lipids assay we used spectrophotometer. Results : The results of the study show that the blood group O( 33.7%) predominates in both studied groups (Patients and controls) followed by A (29.6%), B (27.4%), and AB (9%). There is no significant differences in the percentage of blood groups between patients and controls groups (P >0.05). Also, the results of the study show that the incidence of disease increase with age increases and in male (80%) more than female (20%). Also, the results show that only patients group has obese individuals and most obese were from blood group B(80%), followed by A(66.6%), O(60.8%), and AB(50%). The statistical analysis of the study shows that blood group AB among patients and blood group B among controls have a significant increasing (P<0.05) in the serum level of total cholesterol, and C - reactive protein (CRP). While, the results show that blood groups (B&AB) of patients have a significant increasing in the serum level of triglycerides. The blood group A among patients and blood group B among control show a significant increasing in the LDL cholesterol serum level, while blood groups (A& B) of patients have a significant reduction in the serum level of HDL cholesterol. Also, the study shows that blood group A of both patients and controls has a significant increasing in the serum level of advanced glycation end products (AGEPs), while the blood groups (A& B) of patients have a significant decreasing in the serum level of glutathione peroxidase - 3 (GPX3). Finally, the results of the study show a negative correlation (R= - ) between AGEPs and GPX3 in blood groups ( B&O) of both patients and controls group.Conclusions : Results of the present study show that the blood group O predominates in the studied groups in Al - Najaf Al - Ashraf city followed by A, B, and the last is AB. The incidence of CAD 2 to 4 time more common in male than female and incidence of CAD increase with age increases in both sex. The incidence of CAD 2 to 4 time more common in male than female and incidence of CAD increase with age increases in both sex. Also, There is a high percentage of subjects from blood groups (A, B, and AB) suffering from disturbance in the serum level of lipids and high level of CRP, which they were associated with atherosclerosis disease that was considered one of the most important leading cause of CAD.

According to morphological, cultural characteristics and biochemical tests by using VITEK - 2 system, 34/84(40.47%) isolates of S.mutans were isolated and identified among streptococcus species and the isolation percentages were 26/50(52%) in males and in females were 24/50(48%), while the age group (15 - 25 years old) was the most affected than the other groups. The statistical analysis showed no significant differences among the interaction between gender and age groups. Molecular detection of 16s rRNA gene was amplified to confirm the diagnosis of S.mutans isolates, where all isolates gave an amplicon size (151) bp, in addition to, the DNA sequencing was done in order to identify the nitrogen bases sequences and phylogeny of local isolates in comparison with the global isolates (Spain, Japan, Korea, USA, Canada, India), results revealed that the local isolates of S.mutans had a similarity percent (90%) with Spain isolates.Furthermore, the susceptibility of isolates to a variety of antibiotics have been investigated. It has been found that isolates had multiresistance to erythromycin(88.2%),ampicillin(76.4%),amoxiclave(70.5%),tetracycline(61.7%), nalidixic acid and amoxicillin (58.8%), chloramphenicol (55.8%). The statistical analysis showed a significant differences among tested antibiotics. Biofilm formation was investigated phenotypically by using tissue culture plate with crystal violet staining for resistant S.mutans isolates, the results revealed that all isolates were high biofilm former, furthermore, the effect of ethanolic extraction (50%) of curcumine in growth inhibition and biofilm reduction of S. mutans was assayed. The results showed an effect of curcumine in comparison with chlorhexidine(2%) as a control.The gene expression of biofilm regulatory protein A(Brp A) was quantified in comparison with housekeeping gene 16s rRNA as a reference gene of biofilm S.mutans by using reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction (RT - PCR). The results revealed that the expression (relative&absolute) of Brp A gene is decreased in the test treatment (S.mutans with 1% glucose+ 50% curcumine) in comparison with control (S.mutans grown in 1% glucose only).In conclusion, the present study established the role of Brp A gene in biofilm formation

المستخلص: اظهرت الدراسات بان الستاتينات تؤدي الى تقليل الوفيات بدرجة اكبر من ان تعزى الى تاثيرها الخافض للكوليستيرول بمفرده لان الفائدة حدثت بشكل اسرع مما يمكن تفسيره على وفق الالية سالفة الذكر. هذه الفوائد يمكن ان يكون لها علاقة بتاثيرات الستاتينات المضادة للالتها | Studies revealed that statins can result in a larger mortality benefits than can be readily explained by their cholesterol - lowering effect alone since they occur too quickly to be explained by the above cited mechanism. These benefits might be related to the anti - inflammatory and other effects statins may have.AimTo find out the extent to which rosuvastatin (a hydrophilic statin) can be considered as an antinociceptive and anti - inflammatory drug in comparison to two standard drugs; paracetamol and celecoxib, and whether its potential antinociceptive effect differs in different pain models. The interaction of rosuvastatin with paracetamol and celecoxib will also be investigated. MethodsMice (a total of 132) of either sex, 3 - 4 weeks of age, 20 - 25 gm body weight, were used (22 mice for each of six groups). Tests for nociception : tail flick, hot plate and formalin tests; and for inflammation (formalin for chronic inflammation, carrageenan - induced paw edema, and TNF - alpha level in blood) were used. Rosuvastatin (7mg/kg), paracetamol (40mg/kg), celecoxib (6mg/kg) or their combination were administered orally once daily in a volume of 0.2 ml. TNF alpha level in blood was measured using ELISA kit.ResultsThe antinociceptive effect of rosuvastatin when investigated in mice using tail flick, hot plate and formalin tests, showed that rosuvastatin has a mild antinociceptive effect which is much less than that of paracetamol and celecoxib tested in the same pain models. It increased the latency for tail flick by only 13.3% when compared to pre - treatment measurements, and in formalin test, it reduced the licking time by 20.9% in comparison to control. The administration of rosuvastatin with either paracetamol or celecoxib did not add to the antinociceptive effects of the latter two drugs (except in formalin test of pain model). None of the above mentioned drugs significantly reduced hind - paw edema when measured 24 hours after formalin injection, while they produced a significant edema - reducing effect after 14 days. Rosuvastatin and paracetamol had nearly similar effect (54.12% and 58.37% reduction compared with control). Celecoxib reduced the hind - paw edema by 73%. Again there was no additive effect between rosuvastatin and either paracetamol or celecoxib; in contrast, rosuvastatin reduced nearly all the effects of celecoxib when given in combination. Similar trend was found when edema was induced by carrageenan injection. TNF alpha level in blood had been reduced by all the three drugs and their combinations but did not reach statistical significance except in the group of rosuvastatin and paracetamol combination.ConclusionRosuvastatin showed a significant antinociceptive effect in tail flick and in formalin test, but not in hot plate test. It had anti - inflammatory and edema - reducing effects in models of inflammation in mice but the effect was less than that of celecoxib and even paracetamol. These rosuvastatin effects did not add to those of paracetamol and had caused a reduction in celecoxib (except for formalin pain model) effects when given in combination.

The thalassemia are among the most common genetic disorders world wide. The biochemical signature of β - thalassemia is reduced synthesis of the β - globin subunit of HbA (α2β2).Individuals inheriting two β - thalassemic alleles experience a profound deficit in β - chain production (homozygous) like in (BTM) , and this impairment lead to excess production of α - globin.This study conformed on patients having β - thalassemia major (BTM) .Sixty patients were chosen for this study complaining of profound paller , jaundice. They were clinically diagnosed on the basis of severe anemia and hemoglobin (Hb) electrophoresis.The aim of the present study was to investigate the lipid pattern in children with BTM having repeated blood transfusion which may lead to peroxidative tissue injury by secondary iron overload . The patients undergo irregular blood transfusion and desferioxamine was used as a chelating agent .Serum levels of total cholesterol (TC) , HDL - C , LDL - C , TGs, malondialdehyde (MDA),total lipid peroxides (LPO),iron , ferritin , copper , zinc, plasma total antioxidant capacity (TAC), ALT activity, and AST activity were measured .The results were compared with 40 age matched apparently healthy used as controls .BTM patients showed : significantly lower : TC , HDL - C , and LDL - C . whereas serum TG levels were found to be significantly higher than levels in control subjects. A significant increase in the levels of [(MDA), (LPO)], iron, and ferritin. Whereas a significant decrease in the level of total anti oxidant capacity (TAC) was observed. Serum levels of zinc were significantly decreased with significant increased in the levels of copper. Our results revealed that , lipid profile and other parameters above changed in patients with BTM . Many factors such as : iron over load , liver injury , and hormonal disturbances might cause these changes .It was concluded that , oxidative stress and reduced antioxidant defense mechanism play an important role in pathogenesis of BTM .
