Abstract

The Avian influenza (AI) is aspreadableinfection of the birds and humans affected by type A of influenza virus. Highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) caused by the viruses subtype (H5N1) and (H5N8) is consider as a definite risk to the poultry industry and human health and it is started as the occasional revolutionize a satisfactory because of migratory bird which consider as a carrier of the disease. Twenty oropharyngeal swabs were collected from infected flock have suffer from sudden death with high mortality, all these samples were collected from (1-5) days after clinical signs appears and the results summarized by three farms infected with HPAI subtype (H5N8), three viral isolates strain out of 20 samples were identified by RT-PCR assay, two of them have layer origin while one have broiler origin, the three sequencing results in this study have been presented to the gene bank database under accession number MN689674.1 and MN658854.1, phylogenetic analysis of our sequences were used to relatedness of strain obtaining with other avian influenza viruses around the world, the a current sequences of avian H5N8 strains were found to be related as a common ancestor with Iranian registered strain.

Abstract

This study was conducted to evaluate the role of some biomarkers of bone remodeling and osteoclast activation/function in treated myeloma patients and to compare results with new diagnostic multiple myeloma(MM) patients who did not receive any treatment . during the period from March (2019) to end November (2019). The study involved measuring serum level of RANKL, Osteoprotegerin (OPG) , RANKL/OPG ratio, Interleukin 6 (IL-6), C-terminal cross-linking telopeptide of type I collagen (CTX type –I) , tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase isoform-5b (TRACP-5b) as markers of bone resorption in 47 treated myeloma patients and the results of these parameters comparing with 13 new diagnosed patients and (30) age- and sex-matched healthy controls groups. The statistical analysis of results showed that the serum level of (RANKL, RANKL/OPG ratio, IL-6, CTX type –I and TRACP-5b) decreased in the treated myeloma patients compared to the new diagnosis patients and the level OPG increased in treated myeloma patients. The results also showed a significant rise (p?0.05) serum level of (RANKL, RANKL/OPG ratio, IL-6, CTX type –I and TRACP-5b) and reduce level OPG in myeloma patients (treated and new diagnosis) in general compared to healthy control individuals . In conclusion, RANKL, OPG and IL-6 play significant roles in MM pathophysiology, as regulators of bone turnover The study showed that an increase leads to an increase in bone resorption, and it appears that chemotherapy reduces resorption .

Abstract

The good capability of zinc-tolerant probiotic of Lactobacillus plantarum tolerating high concentrations of Zinc+2 and producing Zinc Oxide Nanoparticles highlights the unique characteristics of these bacteria as a natural microbial cell nano-factory for a more efficient and environmentally friendly process of biosynthesis of these nanoparticles. The morphological and structural properties of Zinc Oxide Nanoparticles were determined by X-ray diffraction, Atomic Force Microscope and Field Emission Scanning Electron Microscope showed that the synthesized nanoparticles were crystalline, moderately stable, roughly spherical, hexonal in shape and pure We examined the antibacterial activity of the Zinc Oxide Nanoparticles and Zinc Oxide Nanoparticles/ Poly-?- hydroxybutyrate bionanocomposite on some pathogenic bacteria .It is clear in this the study that Zinc Oxide Nanoparticles/Poly-?-hydroxybutyrate bionanocomposite has stronger inhibitory effect on pathogenic bacteria compared with Zinc Oxide Nanoparticles only because the bionanocomposites exhibited reduced water uptake and superior gas as well as vapour barrier properties and causes increasing damage of the pathogenic bacteria.

Abstract

There is no doubt that Mercury is considered one of the significant pollutants to the environment. It have been noticed that exists in three forms. The previously mentioned forms are elementalor metallic (mercury), organic and inorganic mercury. Inorganic mercury can be converted microbiogically into organic form. The present paper has been focused on the genotoxicity and histopathological effect of mercuric chloride on Ctenopharyngodonidella (Grass carp). Basically, Ctenopharyngodonidella is one of the most important fish species according to FAO reports. Moreover, C. idella fry have been divided into four groups. The first Group was exposed to sublethal concentrations of 5 ppb, Second Group was exposed to 10 ppb of mercuric chloride and the third one was exposed to 15 ppb, on the other hand,the fourth Group was kept as unexposed control. Furthermore,A blood smear was done for micronuclei examination and gills and liver of the tested fish were obtained for histopathological study.A significant increase of micronucleus notched erythrocytes in fish exposure with HgCl2 than in the controls). The microscopic examination has shown different histological changes in the organs of the examined fish which has been exposed to mercuric chloride in comparison with control organs.

Abstract

Background: Medical and pharmacy students are at greater risk of using psychoactive substances. Iraqi medical and health science students are at great danger of using these psychoactive substances and this may be attributed to different reasons, e.g. stressful life. Objectives: Hence, this study was designed to identify the pattern and to investigate the triggering factors associated with psychoactive substance use among medical and pharmacy students, University of Kufa. Subjects and Method: A descriptive cross-sectional institutional-based study was conducted from the period of March to June 2019 at the University of Kufa, in which students were recruited in multistage fashion. Randomly selected students were asked to fill in an online questionnaire prepared based on different standard questionnaires and previous studies. Pearson’s chi-square test (X2) and Fisher-Exact test were used to find the association between categorical variables. A p-value of ? 0.05 was considered significant. Results: Overall, 129 students participated in this study. The mean age of the students was (21.89 ± 2.76). Overall, seven percent of the participants have confessed that they are tobacco smokers. In terms of waterpipe tobacco smoking, 10 out of 129 (7.8%) of the students were hookah smoker and only 2 students (1.6 %) were e-cigarette smokers. Most of the students stated that multiple reasons behind their tobacco smoking. Nearly one-third of participants had quarrels or arguments. While no one had trouble with the police or made something who regretted later. In general, most of the students acknowledged that the use of psychoactive substances carries a risk. In terms of the triggering factors, all factors studied in this study were associated insignificantly with tobacco smoking among the target population (p-value > 0.05), except gender, if they have a family member who smokes or friends who drink alcohol and the age at initiation (p-value < 0.05). No pattern of alcohol consumption and prescription drug among the participants have been identified.

Abstract

Physical deviations that are closely related to technological development helped to the emergence of diseases resulting from inactivity and lack of movement, So therapeutic exercise is one of the means to help improve the strength of pupils by using the means of assistance as a means of treating deviations of the spine such as (rubber ropes, medical balls, stick and various sponge pieces). The purpose of therapeutic exercises is to help the child return to activity and life as quickly as possible, reduce pain and increase the flexibility of joints and muscle elasticity. Therefore, the researcher used the one-group experimental curriculum (tribal after test), and the research community was identified from the 150 students and students of the 2018-2019 school year, and 22 students were identified. Their age of (6-9) years in the deliberate way, as the therapeutic program was implemented which includes therapeutic exercises for (6) weeks by (12) therapeutic units and the time of the therapeutic unit (35) minutes, and concluded the researcher that the therapeutic units followed by the researcher to reduce deviations in the column.
