Abstract: هذه الدراسة تبحث في تغيرات الفسلجة المرضية للجهاز المناعي عند الاناث المصابات بسرطان الثدي الخبيث اللاتي شخص حديثا بهن المرض ولم يتعاطين العلاج بعد اللائي ترددن على مستشفى السرطان والطب النووي في بغداد ومختبرات الصحة العامة المركزي . وقد تضمنت هذه الدراسة عدد (80) امراة , حيث كانت هناك ( 4 ) حالات فقط في المرحلة الاولى من المرضى , (32) حالة في المرحلة الثانية , (31) حالة في المرحلة الثالثة , (13) حالة كانت في المرحلة الرابعة من مرض سرطان الثدي .مستويات الواسمات الورمية المختلفة كانت قد قدرت, الواسم CA15 - 3 كان قد حددت قيمته , واظهر حساسية تقدر بـ ( 5ر27%) وتخصيصية تقدر با (8ر95%) في سرطان الثدي المعرف وكذلك في المراحل المختلفة من المرض , النتائج لهذه الدراسة كشفت عدم وجود اختلافات معنوية في مستوى CA15 - 3 في مصل المصابات بحالات ورم الثدي الحميد مقارنة بالنساء المصابات بسرطان الثدي - المرحلة الاولى ( 0.164 <P ) بينما مستوى CA15 - 3 من مصل المريضات بسرطان الثدي من المرحلتين الثالثة والرابعة كانتا اكثر ارتفاعا , وهناك ظهرت الاختلافات المعنوية القائمة بالمقارنة مع المصابين بسرطان الثدي من الدرجة الاولى والثانية ( 0.001<P) .المستضد الورمي الجنيني CEA كان اقل قدرة ادائية حيث كان ذات حساسية تقدر بـ20% وتخصصية 7ر93% من ناحية ثانية , عبر ضم هذين الواسمين خلق مدى افضل للاداء او الانجاز .مولدات مضادات الورمية اخرى اختبرت وكان لها اجمالي الدقة accuracy over all منخفضة والذي جعل استخدامها محدود في عملية تشخيص سرطان الثدي .مستويات Beta 2 microglobulin اظهرت اختلاف معنوي بين مجموعة السيطرة الاصحاء والمرضى بسرطان الثدي في المراحل المختلفة ( 0.001 >P) فوق ذلك , كانت هناك اختلافات معنوية ( 0.001 >P) بين مجموعة السيطرة الاصحاء واولئك من كانوا في المرحلة الاولى من المرضى , عبر ضم هذه الواسمات قد لوحظ تحسين افضل في الكشف عن سرطان الثدي .مستوى Ceruloplamin هو واحد من Acute phase reactant proteins , اظهر عدم وجود فروقات معنوية بين النساء السليمات وتلك المصابات بسرطان الثدي حتى المرحلة الثالثة ( P=0.269) الاختلاف كان معنوي فقط بعد الاخذ في الاعتبار المرحلة الرابعة من المرضى ( 0.002 >P) وهو المؤشر للزيادة الرئيسية الظاهرة في مستوى Ceruloplasminعند المرضى الذين كانوا في مرحلة متاخرة من الورم الخبيث .كما وقد لاحظنا ان عدد CD+ 4 cells يتناقص مع تقدم المرض ليصل الى اقل قيمة عند المرحلة الرابعة من المرض .من ناحية اخرى , التحليل الاحصائي اظهر اختلافات معنوية بين المراحل المدروسة من المرضى ( P=0.718 - 0.065 ) حيث لم تكن هناك فروقات معنوية حتى الوصول الى المرحلة الرابعة ( P=0.013) مشيرا الى ان اقصى درجة التدمير لهذه الخلايا كانت واضحة في هذه المرحلة . من جانب اخر CD8 cells اتخذت كليا التفاعل العكسي , تبدا الاقل انخفاضا عند المراحل المبكرة من المرض حتى تصل الى اعلى مستوى عند المرحلة الرابعة .مستويات Interleukines المعتمدة, كان متوسط IL - 1α في مصل مجموعة السيطرة الاصحاء اقل من الحد المعرف به في الـ Kit . خلال التحليل الاحصائي ظهرت علامة اختلاف معنوي بين المرضى في المراحل المختلفة من المرض ( P=0.032 ) . معظم القراءات كانت في اطار المستويات غير الحد المعرف به والمستوى المرتفع المفاجيء كان عند عدد قليل من المرضى نتجت في هذه الاختلافات .من جانب اخر , اظهر التحليل الاحصائي زيادة معنوية في مستويات IL - 4 بين النساء السليمات والمصابات بسرطان الثدي عند المراحل المختلفة من المرض ( 0.001>P) .تركيز IL - 6 في المصل كان ذات ارتفاع معنوي عند المصابات بسرطان الثدي مقارنة بالنساء السليمات (0.001>P) . متوسط مستويات IL - 6 المصلي كان يقارب الثلاثة اضعاف ارتفاعا عما هو عند مرضى سرطان الثدي المنتقل metastatic breast cancer ( المرحلة الرابعة ) كما قورن مع اولئك الذين كانوا في المرحلة المبكرة من المرض ( المرحلة الاولى ) , والمقدرة على التوالي بـ ( 24.02 pg/ml versus 8.45pg/ml) .كما وقد كان هناك تقدما في الزيادة المعلمة في متوسط مستوى IL - 8 في اطار المراحل المختلفة من المرض ( P=0.025) , مع ذلك العامل المنكرر في كل نتيجة على حدة متمثلا في ارتفاع مستوى القراءات , بما فيها المرحلة الرابعة من المرض .بالمثل لمستويات Immunoglobulins في المصل , كانت هناك زيادة طفيفة في مستويات المصل عند المصابات بالسرطان , والتي قد ظهرت متجاوزة قليلا عنها مما هي عند السليمات , ولكن في هذه الزيادة لم تكن هناك فروقات معنوية مميزة في كل اختبارات ذات الانماط المتساوية . | This study investigated some physiological changes of the immune system in females with malignant breast cancer that were newly diagnosed and untreated, attending The Oncology and Nuclear Medicine Hospital in Baghdad and the Central Public Health Laboratories. Of the 80 females included, only four were in stage I of the disease, 32 in stage II, 31 in stage III, and 13 in stage IV. Different tumor markers levels were evaluated in those patients. CA 15 - 3 was assessed. It showed a sensitivity of 27.5% and a specificty of 95.8% in detecting breast cancer and at different stages of the disease. The results of the study revealed no statistically significant difference in the level of CA 15 - 3 in serum of patients with benign breast conditions compared with patients with a breast cancer of stage I (p>0.164). However, serum CA 15 - 3 level in patients with a breast cancer of stages III and IV, was considerably higher and there was a significant difference as compared with patients with a breast cancer of grades I and II (p < 0.001). Carcinoembryonic antigen had lesser performance capabilites. It had a sensitivity of 20% and a specificty of 93.7%. However, by combining these two parameters better performance indices were achieved.Other tumor markers tested had low over all accuracy that limited their use in breast cancer diagnosis.Beta 2 microglobulin levels showed significant difference among the healthy control group and patients with breast cancer at different stages (P<0.001). Moreover, there was a significant difference (P<0.001) between healthy control and stage I of the disease. By combing this parameter, further improvement in detecting breast cancer could be noticed.Ceruloplasmin level, one of the acute phase reactant proteins, showed no statistically significant changes among healthy control persons and patients with breast cancer up to stage III (P=0.269). The difference was only significant after considering stage IV of the disease (P<0.002), indicating that the major increase in ceruloplasmin level occurs in patients who are at advanced stage of malignancy.We observed that the number of CD4 cells decreases with the progress of the disease reaching its lowest value at stage IV patients. However, statistical analysis showed that the differences between the studied stages (P=0.718 - 0.065) were of no statistical significance till reaching stage IV (P=0.013) indicating that the maximum reduction was in this stage. On the other hand CD8 cells follow totally opposite reaction, being lowest at early stages of the disease reaching its highest level at stage IV. Concerning interleukines levels, mean serum level of IL - 1alpha in the healthy control group was below the detection limit of the kit. Though statistical analysis showed significant difference between patients in different stages of the disease (P=0.032), most of the readings were within the undetectable levels and the occasional high level in few patients resulted in these differences.On the other hand, Statistical analysis shows significant increase in the levels of IL - 4 in patints with breast cancer at different stages of the disease in compare with healthy control group (p<0.0001).Serum IL - 6 concentration was significantly higher in patients with breast cancer compared with healthy controls (P < 0.0001). Mean IL - 6 serum levels were nearly 3 times higher in patients with metastatic breast cancer (stage IV) as compared with those with early disease (stage I) (24.02 pg/mL versus 8.45 pg/mL, respectively).There is progressive significant increase in the mean of IL - 8 level within the stages of the disease (P=0.025), though the main contributory factor in sucha result is the high level within stage IV.As for serum levels of immunoglobulins, a slight increase in the serum levels in patients with cancer appeared exceeding a little those of the healthy control but this increase was not significant in all isotypes tested.

Abstract: اجريت الدراسة على ١٨۰ مريضا يعانون من وهن النطف اثناء مراجعتهم لمعهد ابحاث الاجنة وعلاج العقم / جامعة النهرين. كان الهدف الرئيس لهذه الدراسة هو استقصاء تاثير اضافة الاوكسيتوسين الى السائل المنوي للمرضى لغرض التحقق من تحسين خصائص الحركة العائدة الى النطف، وكان التركيز على هذا الهرمون بوصفه مادة طبيعية ينتجها الجسم وله وظائف معروفة غير التي هدفت اليها هذه الدراسة. اما الهدف الثانوي فهو دراسة علاقة الترابط بين قيم بعض المعايير الكيمياحياتية للمني ومستوى الهرمونات التكاثرية للمصل من جهة واختبارات وظيفة النطف من جهة اخرى.تم تحليل السائل المنوي للمرضى قبل تنشيط النطف، ومن ثم تم تقسيم المرضى الى ثلاث مجاميع رئيسة متساوية. جمعت عينات الدم من مرضى المجموعة الاخيرة لغرض تعيين مستوى الهرمونات التكاثرية الاربعة في المصل وهى : التيستوستيرون، البرولاكتين، الهرمون اللوتيني، والهرمون المحفز للجريب. كذلك تم قياس مستوى بعض المعايير الكيمياحياتية للسائل المنوي لمرضى هذه المجموعة والتي تضمنت : البروتين الكلي، الكوليستيرول، الكالسيوم، انزيم الكرياتين كاينيز، والفركتوز.استخدمت طريقتان لتنشيط النطف خارج الجسم in vitro وهما : الطريقة المباشرة (باستخدام مزيج الاوكسيتوسين ووسط تحضير النطف) والطريقة غير المباشرة (باستخدام التقنية الطباقية البسيطة) وبتطبيق ثلاثة تراكيز من الاوكسيتوسين وهي : ۲،٤، و٦ وحدة دولية/مل لاختيار التركيز الاكثر تاثيرا على اختبارات وظيفة النطف. اظهرت نتائج الطريقة غير المباشرة حدوث تحسن معنوي ملحوظ (P<0.001) في النسبة المئوية للنطف المتحركة ودرجة نشاط النطف عند التركيز۲ وحدة دولية/مل مقارنة مع عينات السيطرة. وقد كان هناك ميلا الى تناقص درجة نشاط النطف مع زيادة تركيز الاوكسيتوسين. اما نتائج الطريقة المباشرة فقد اظهرت حدوث زيادة معنوية (P<0.05) في درجة نشاط النطف وقد كان هناك ايضا ميلا الى تناقص معيار الحركة هذا مع زيادة تركيز الاوكسيتوسين. بناء على هذه النتائج، تم استعمال التركيز۲ وحدة دولية/مل للاوكسيتوسين مع تطبيق الطريقتين المباشرة وغير المباشرة وذلك في حالتين هما وجود وسط تحضير النطف وعدم وجوده. اظهرت حصيلة الطريقة غير المباشرة لتنشيط النطف وعند وجود وسط تحضير النطف زيادة معنوية ملحوظة (P<0.001) في خصائص الحركة (النسبة المئوية للنطف المتحركة ودرجة نشاط النطف) في كلا المجموعتين (المعاملة بالاوكسيتوسين ومجموعة السيطرة) مقارنة مع قيم ما قبل التنشيط. اما مقارنة المجموعتين معا فقد اظهرت بان افضل تحسن معنوي ملحوظ ((P<0.001 في خصائص الحركة كان في المجموعة المعاملة. عند غياب وسط تحضير النطف كان هنالك تحسنا معنويا (P<0.05) في خصائص الحركة في المجموعة المعاملة فقط مقارنة مع قيم ما قبل التنشيط . عند تطبيق الطريقة المباشرة كانت النتائج مماثلة لما حدث عند تطبيق الطريقة غير المباشرة في حالة وجود وسط تحضير النطف. اما عند غياب وسط تحضير النطف لم يحدث اي تغيير معنوي (P>0.05) في تلك المعايير بعد فترة الحضانة. واظهرت النتائج ايضا بان هناك استجابات محفزة بالاوكسيتوسين (رغم انها غير معنوية) في تلك المعايير مقارنة مع مجموعة السيطرة. تشير جميع هذه النتائج الى التاثير المحفز للاوكسيتوسين عند التركيز۲ وحدة دولية/مل على خصائص حركة النطف، كذلك فان استعمال وسط تحضير النطف ادى الى دعم ذلك التاثير.تم تقييم علاقة الترابط بين المعايير الكيمياحياتية لبلازما المني ومعايير المني، وقد اشارت النتائج الى وجود ترابط موجب وبشكل معنوي (r = +0.29, P<0.05) بين مستوى الكوليستيرول وتركيز النطف، وبين مستوى الكالسيوم وكل من النسبة المئوية للنطف المتحركة (r = +0.27, P<0.05) ودرجة نشاط النطف(r = +0.37, P<0.05) . بينما كان هناك ترابط سالب وبشكل معنوي بين مستوى الفركتوز من جهة وكل من تركيز النطف - 0.41, P<0.001) (r =، النسبة المئوية للنطف المتحركة (r = - 0.28, P<0.05) ، ودرجة نشاط النطف (r = - 0.32, P<0.05) من جهة اخرى.عند مقارنة مستوى هذه المعايير الكيمياحياتية بين المجموعة المعاملة بالاوكسيتوسين ومجموعة السيطرة، كان واضحا بان الاوكسيتوسين ربما يكون سببا في فقدان الكوليستيرول من الغشاء البلازمي للنطف وبالتالي زيادة مستواه وبشكل معنوي ملحوظ ((P<0.001 في الوسط الخارجي. كذلك فان الاوكسيتوسين ربما ادى الى تحوير نقل الكالسيوم عبر الغشاء البلازمي وبالنتيجة زيادة تركيز الكالسيوم داخل الخلية وانخفاض مستواه وبشكل معنوي ملحوظ ((P<0.001 في الوسط الخارجي. بالاضافة الى الانخفاض المعنوي الملحوظ ((P<0.001 في مستوى الفركتوز في الوسط الخارجي والذي يشير الى استخدامه المتزايد من قبل النطف بسبب تنشيط الحركة.اظهرت نتائج فحوصات الهرمونات التكاثرية ارتفاعا معنويا ملحوظا ((P<0.001 في مستوىالبرولاكتين وانخفاضا معنويا (P<0.05)في مستوى الهرمون اللوتيني في الحالات المدروسة عند المقارنة مع القيم الطبيعية. وجدت علاقة ترابط سالبة وبشكل معنوي (r = - 0.29, P<0.05) بين مستوى برولاكتين المصل وتركيز النطف، وقد وجدت علاقة مشابهة ايضا (r = - 0.28, P<0.05) بين مستوى الهرمون المحفز للجريب في المصل وتركيز النطف.

Some studies focused on the role of insulin status, while others concentrated on lipid disturbances or even oxidative stress disorders in the diabetes. This study was conducted on randomly selected 68 type 2 diabetic patients (27 Males and 41 Females) attending the diabetes mellitus center in Al - Sadder Teaching Hospital in Al - Najaf province, Iraq and a group of 20 apparently healthy subjects (10 Males and 10 Females) were included as a control group. The study was carried out from February 2013 to July 2013. The age of patients and control groups were range of 35 - 65years. The concentration of fasting blood glucose, cholesterol, triglyceride, LDL, VLDL, HDL, Apelin, Omentin, Vaspin, Visfatin and BMI were estimated in patients and control groups. The results show significant increase (P?0.05) in fasting blood glucose, cholesterol, triglyceride, LDL, VLDL, Apelin, Vaspin and Visfatin levels in patients compared with control groups, also the results show significant decrease (P?0.05) in HDL and Omentin level in patients compared with control groups. The results revealed that all biomarkers (Apelin, Omentin, Vaspin and Visfatin) not significant difference (P>0.05) in patients at different ages. The results also revealed that biomarkers (Apelin, Vaspin and Visfatin) levels increase significantly (P?0.05) in males than females in both patients and control groups, while the result of omentin level reveal no significant difference (P>0.05) between males and females in both patients and control groups. The results also revealed that significant increase (P?0.05) in BMI in patients compared with control groups. The results also show that biomarkers (Apelin, Vaspin and Visfatin) concentration increase significantly (P?0.05) with increasing BMI in males than females compared with control groups, while the result of omentin concentration show no significant difference (P>0.05) in patients and control groups and show lower significantly increase (P?0.05) in females than males compared with control groups. The results have been shown significant positive correlation (P?0.05) between biomarkers (Apelin, Vaspin and Visfatin) and FBG, cholesterol, triglyceride, LDL and VLDL in patients (males and females), while the results have been shown significant negative correlation (P?0.05) between biomarkers (Apelin, Vaspin and Visfatin) and HDL in patients (males and females). The results also have been shown significant negative correlation (P?0.05) between omentin and FBG, cholesterol, triglycerides, LDL and VLDL in patients (males and females), while the results have been shown significant positive correlation (P?0.05) between omentin and HDL in patients (males and females). The results also have been shown no significant correlation (P>0.05) between Vaspin and FBG in patients (males and females). The present study concluded that Apelin, Omentin, Vaspin and Visfatin levels maybe that could be adopted as markers for detection and diagnosis of diabetic patients type 2.

Abstract: ان من الحقائق العلمية الثابتة اليوم ان الفحص الروتيني للسائل المنوي يعد عاملا تنبؤيا اجماليا للقدرة الاخصابية للرجال، ولذلك فان حاجة متزايدة بدات تبرز لاكتشاف فحوصات وظيفية جديدة في عملية تقييم العقم عند الرجال. ان الهدف الاساس من هذه الدراسة هو تعزيز الج | It is a scientific fact today that routine seminal fluid analysis is a key predictor of male reproductive potentiality ; so that there is an increasing need for finding out other functional tests in the assessment of male infertility. The main goal of the current study is to consolidate the scientific and practical efforts concerned with male infertility assessment especially from immunological and genetic aspects. The study was carried out between January 2013 and December 2013 including one hundred (100) selected infertile men who attended the Fertility Center in al - Sadr Medical City in Al - Najaf Al - Ashraf Governorate, the study also included twenty (20) healthy volunteer fertile men as a control. Serum and seminal antisperm antibodies (ASA) were determined by ELISA (Enzyme Linked ImmunoSorbent Assay) technique ; sperm chromatin condensation was evaluated by aniline blue staining (AB) ; sperm DNA fragmentation (damage) was evaluated by toluidine blue staining (TB). The results showed that the incidence and concentration of serum and seminal plasma ASA in the infertile men were significantly (p<0.05) higher than that in control fertile men. The incidence and concentration of serum and seminal ASA were also significantly (p<0.05) higher in normozoospermic infertile patients than that in control fertile men. There was a high significant negative correlation (p<0.01) between the concentration of serum and seminal plasma ASA in the infertile men and sperm motility and progressive motility, the concentration of serum and seminal ASA also showed a high significant positive correlation (p<0.01) with sperm agglutination, and a significant positive correlation (p<0.05) with seminal WBC count. The results also revealed that there were no significant effects (p>0.05) for patients' age, infertility duration, ABO blood groups and smoking habits on the levels of ASA in the serum and seminal fluid, while higher significant increase (p<0.01) in serum and seminal ASA concentrations was observed in infertile patients with varicocele as compared with those without. The results have also revealed that the percentage of sperm with chromatin decondensation and DNA damage has shown a high significant (p<0.01) increase in infertile patients compared to fertile men. There was also a significant increase (p<0.05) in sperm DNA damage in normozoospermic infertile patients comparing with fertile men, but no significant difference (p>0.05) was found in sperm chromatin condensation between normozoospermic patients and fertile men. Both sperm chromatin decondensation and sperm DNA damage showed a significant positive correlation (p<0.05) with sperm morphology, and a significant negative correlation (p<0.05) with sperm concentration, motility and progressive motility. The present study also revealed that the level of chromatin decondensation has been affected by patients' age, infertility duration, smoking habits and varicocele. It was observed that the higher percentage of chromatin decondensation was recorded in patients older than 37 years, and in patients subgroups with infertility duration more than 15 years, it was also higher in smoker as compared with non - smoker patients and in those with varicocele as compared with those without. Similarly, the level of sperm DNA damage has also been affected by patients' age, smoking habits and varicocele. It was observed that the highest percentage of sperm DNA damage was recorded in patients older than 37 years. The highest level of sperm DNA damage was also seen in smoker patients as compared with non - smokers and in those with varicocele as compared with those without. In contrast, the effect of infertility duration on sperm DNA damage was not statistically different (p>0.05). The correlation and regression results recorded high significant correlations (p<0.01) between serum ASA and seminal plasma ASA, and between sperm chromatin decondensation and sperm DNA damage. However, there was no significant correlation (p>0.05) between the level of serum and seminal ASA and each of sperm chromatin decondensation and sperm DNA damage. The current study concluded that the defects in sperm chromatin status (chromatin decondensation and DNA damage), and the immunological disorders caused by serum and seminal plasma ASA may - at least partially - contribute to the etiology of infertility of the patients under study, even in those with normal seminal parameters. However, it seems that ASA affect fertility in a pathway that is different from that affected by sperm chromatin defect. It was recommended that both sperm chromatin staining techniques and ASA tests could be routinely used as complementary tests to diagnose infertility.

Abstract: Markers have been described in type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM), There is a number of specific and non specific antigens have been identified. The major autoantigens involved in the destructive process of beta - cells leading to the development of type 1 diabetes are insulin hormone, glutamic acid decarboxylase (GAD), tyrosine phosphatase enzyme or Insulinoma - associated Antigen - 2(IA - 2).This study was conducted to find the relationship between antibodies for this antigens (insulin, GAD and IA - 2) and T1DM which could be used for the early detection of T1DM in normal Iraqi population. To study the importance of anti - thyroid peroxidase (anti - TPO) as a marker for autoimmune thyroid disease (ATD) in T1DM patients, and to find the relationship between T1DM and ATD.The study was carried out on 50 blood samples of men and 30 blood samples of women with age ranged from (20 - 60 years old), they were divided in to three groups : 1. Group 1 (20 men and 10 women) whom have fasting plasma glucose (FPG) above 180 mg/dL.2. Group 2 (20 men and 10 women) whom have FPG ranged from 120 - 180 mg/dL.3. Group 3 (10 men and 10 women) whom have FPG below 120 mg/dL.Blood samples were collected from all subjects, FPG and glycated haemoglobin (HbA1c) were measured. The levels of insulin, anti - insulin, anti - GAD, anti - IA - 2 and anti - TPO antibodies were measured in the serum.The statistical analysis results showed no significant difference in the presence of antibodies, HbA1c and FPG between men and women groups, inspite of some simple differences between the two groups.A significant (p<0.05) elevation in the level of FPG and HbA1c was observed in diabetic patients group compared withnon diabetic group. Significant (p<0.05) decrease in the level of insulin of T1DM patients was noticed compared to non diabetic group. Significant (p<0.05) elevation in the level of (anti - insulin, anti - TPO) in T1DM patients compared with non diabetic group. Elevation in the level of (anti - GAD, anti - IA - 2) in the T1DM patients compared with non diabetic group.The results also showed that no positive results for (anti - insulin, anti - TPO) present in the non diabetic group. One positive result for anti - GAD and one positive result for anti - IA - 2 present in the non diabetic group, which indicate the importance of anti - GAD and anti - IA - 2 antibodies ssay in normal population that could be used as early detection of T1DM.

The samples were collected in cooperation with artificial kidney center in AL - Kut Hospital, AL - Kut city, Wasit Province, during the period from 1 /10/2012 to 1/5/2013. In order to study the physiological changes of renal failure patients before and after hemodialysis and peritoneal dialysis. The blood samples were taken from one hundered thirty four patients for this study.The patients in this study were divided into two groups according to the type of dialysis : 94 hemodialysis patients, 52 males with age range (21 - 69) years and 42 females with age range (20 - 70) years, 40 peritonial dialysis patients, 24 males with age range (21 - 60) years and 16 females with age range (23 - 63) years. All results were compared with the results of 57 healthy person who were selected from both sexes (29 males and 28 female). Eight milliliters of venous blood were collected from control subjects and patients with renal failure by using disposable syringe of 10 ml before and after dialysis process.The blood analyses was conducted for evaluating the hematological parameters which are included (Hb, PCV, WBCs and PLT ) biochemical parameters which include (Blood Urea, Serum Creatinine, Total Protein and Calicum) electrolyte parameters which include sodium and potassium, measured concentration of (Erythropoietin and Aldosterone) hormone in patients with renal failure before and after dialysis and control groups and measure the effectiveness of phagocytic cells in patients with renal failure before dialysis by using Nitroblue Tetrazolium stain (NBT). The study revealed the following results : 1 - When comparing the results of parameters between before and after hemodialysis and peritoneal dialysis with healthy control show the following : a - Significant decrease (P < 0.01) in the levels of (Hb and PCV) while significant increase (P < 0.01) in PLT in renal failure patients before and after dialysis compared to healthy control and significant increase (P < 0.01) in the numbers of WBCs in male peritoneal dialysis patients compared to healthy control.b - Significant increase (P < 0.01) in urea, creatinine, sodium, potassium and in the aldosterone hormone concentration in renal failure patients before and after dialysis compared to healthy control.c - Significant decrease (P < 0.01) in the erythropoietin hormone concentration, total protein, calcium and phagocytic cells activity in renal failure patients compared to healthy control.2 - When comparing the results of parameters between before and after dialysis for each type of dialysis showing the following : - a - All hematological parameters and the concentration of hormones (Erythropoietin and Aldosterone) observe no significant differences between before and after dialysis.b - Significant decrease in the levels of urea, creatinine and there is a significant increase in the levels of total protein and calcium after dialysis comparing with before dialysis.c - Significant decrease in the levels of potassium in hemodialysis patients after dialysis comparing to before dialysis and there is a significant decrease in the levels of sodium and potassium after peritoneal dialysis comparing to before dialysis. 3 - When comparing the results of males and females hemodialysis with males and females peritoneal dialysis shows the following : a - Significant increases in numbers of WBCs before and after dialysis in the male and female peritoneal dialysis comparing with hemodialysis b - Significant decreases in the levels of urea and creatinine after dialysis in the male and female peritoneal dialysis comparing with hemodialysis.c - No significant difference in the levels of Hb, PCV, PLT, total protein, calcium, sodium, potassium, the phagocytic activity and the concentration of hormones (Erythropoietin and Aldosterone) before and after dialysis in the male and female hemodialysis comparing with peritoneal dialysis. We conclude that renal failure patients in Wasit Province suffer from severe anemia, high blood pressure, increase in the levels of urea and creatinine, disturbance in the levels of potassium, sodium and calcium with deficiency in the body's immunity.
