Abstract

In this study, thirty patients complaining of bruxism at night and hyperactivity masseters muscle causing TMJdisk changes, TMJ clicking sound and all selected patient complaining of gingival inflammation as includedcriteria, and 50-unit botulinum toxin type A were injected in both side of masseter muscle. Regarding toT.M.J clicking sound there were three intervals of PRP injection for 3 months. The levels of IL-6 in theblood samples measured by ELISA technique, this study proposed to investigate the plasma IL-6 level inpatient with early changes of T.M.J disorder and role of repetitive intraarticular PRP injection on the T.M.Jclicking sound and the effect of decreasing stress force microtruma of masseter muscle on gingival score inpreviously diagnosed bruxism patient with gingival inflammation whether of causative factor of gingivitis.The mean difference of plasma IL-6 in between patient and control (25.6 ± 4.2 and 23.8 ± 1.8) respectively.There were highly significant differences in gingival index score of all sided of oral cavity after botoxintramuscular injection. Force stress muscle microtruma of bruxism patient considered a contributory factorthat increased gingival inflammation these fact suggested by botulinum toxin injection to decrease this force,and highly statically difference on gingival score after injection and also, the intraarticular injection of PRPin T.M.J disorder patient statically not affected on the clicking sound of joint as well as suggesting in ourresearch for further studies to appear the role of IL-6 in early joint changes locally as an experimental study

Abstract

Electrical generators in Iraq have been a series problem regarding occupational and environmental pollution.The current study aimed to determine the level of general health status among generator workers in AlDiwaniyah City Iraq, and its correlation with noise and demographic data . A descriptive cross-sectionaldesign was conducted in the current study . It was carried out at the private electrical generators inA-Diwaniyah City from the period between the 15th of October 2020 until the 15th of March 2021 . Apurposive study of 150 generator workers has been selected .General health was determined by GeneralHealth questionnaire (GHQ-28) which is comprised of 28 items, and include four aspects : somatic, social, depression and anxiety . Noise intensity level was measured by sound level meter (SLM) . The results ofthe present study revealed that average level of noise intensity inside the workers’ room was (78.12 db) ;while it was (104.14 db) near the generator . The results also showed that the assessment of most domain(social, depression, and anxiety) was moderate, except for somatic domain which it was good . There was asignificant negative correlation between noise and depression and anxiety . It has been concluded that : Mostof the generator workers showed a moderate level of general health status ; Most of the generators workershad moderate level for anxiety, depression and social aspects ; Noise intensities inside the generator roomsexceeds the upper limits accepted for human health .

Abstract

About 5–7% of the world population have an unhealthy hemoglobin (Hb) gene . The most common form ofhemoglobinopathy globally is sickle cell disease. Sickle cell disorder (SCD) is the major predominant innateclutter of Hb amalgamation stamped through a change within the ? globin gene, which result within thesubstitution of glutamate corrosive with valine at the 6th codon and union of Hb S a which is a hemoglobin,beneath hypoxic states, coming about within the abnormality of RBCs (Red Blood Corpuscles). The lysis oferythrocytes result in raise in extracellular hemoglobin, hence hoisting liking and official to open nitric oxideor antecedents of nitric oxide in this manner diminishing its levels and assist partaking to vasoconstriction .Sickle ruddy blood cells since of their hardness to stream by means of the micro-circulation, results in visitvaso-occlusive scenes, destitute micro-vascular blood stream, ischemic damage, and myocardial localizednecrosis . The clinical highlights of sickle cell anemia are constant hemolytic weakness, an elevatedvulnerability to diseases, repetitive difficult Vaso-Occlusive Emergency (VOC) and a brought down lifehope .

Abstract

Recently, breast cancer has been considered as an increasing problem specially in Iraq . This study wasdesigned to investigate maternal risk factors of breast cancer in Al-Najaf Province . A Convenience sampleof (40) patients was taken in this study during the period from Dec. .2019 to Apr. 2020 . The result of thepresent study shows that the majority of the women were between the age (30-40) years show the breastcancer increase in this age group. The results of the current study also showed that the vast majority at thewomen were married. The current study also showed that about (27.5%) and (22%) at the studied women aresuffering from hypertension and diabetes mellitus respectively. The present study reveal that about (32.5)ofthe women did not practice breast feeding ,(42.5) of them less than 2 years breast feeding. The present studyrevealed that about 60%of the women didn’t exposed to passive smoking and 40% of the women exposedto passive smoking , other study explain the second hand smoke have been suggested to increase the riskof breast cancer. The present study indicated that approximately all investigated women (39of 40)have nomedical history of ovarian polycystic disease . It was concluded that the most contributing risk factors in theoccurrence Education, BMI , contraceptive use ,passive smoking and age. It is recommended to establishan education program to enhance the awareness of women about the risk factors that have been recorded inthis study .
