Abstract

Introduction: - Chronic inflammation is a basic feature of end stage kidney disease and is associated withincreasing risk of mortality and morbidity in patients undergoing dialysis.The aim: - the study amid toevaluate white blood cells and IL-6 in patients undergoing hemodialysis and without hemodialysis. Methodsand Subjects:- The study was designed on 106 patients with chronic renal failure age range (20-69years).The patients divided in two groups according to treatment, 40 patients with conservative treatment and66 patients with hemodialysis treatment. IL-6 were determined by using a commercially available ELISAMicro wells kit. Total white blood cells count and differential count were determined by using an automatedhematology autoanlyzer XT2000i. Results:- showed a significant (p<0.05) decrease of total white bloodcells count, neutrophils, lymphocytes, monocytes, eosinophils and basophils in hemodialytic group whencompared with conservative group. But IL-6 levels was higher significantly (p<0.01) in hemodialytic groupwhen compared with conservative group. Conclusion: - hemodialysis session impaired immune system andactivated anti-inflammatory factors.

Abstract

Background: Managing of abortion is an important subject in gynecology. Millions of patients had sufferedfrom spontaneous abortions that occur per year.Objectives: The aim of this study was to compare the effect of misoprostol alone and misoprostol withletrozole in the induction of abortion in the first trimester of pregnancy.Patients and Methods: In a single –blind clinical trial ,128 female applicants for legal abortion within thefirst trimester of pregnancy that referred to AL-Batool hospital , were divided in to two groups: intervention(misoprostol with letrozole) and control groups (misoprostol alone). The complete abortion, drug-inducedside effects of misoprostol and letazole were noted and evaluated.Results: The complete abortion rate was93.2% in intervention group and in68.7% in the control group(misoprostol) only, which was significantly higher in intervention group (p = 0.001).Abdominal pain in the intervention group is also significantly lower than that of the control group (p =0.013). Intervention group also had significantly lower duration of bleeding rather than control group (p =0.006).Conclusions: Based on our results, pretreatment with letrozole plus Misoprostol was more effective forprompting abortion in the first trimester of pregnancy without increasing side effect compared to misoprostolalone.

Abstract

Worldwide, the most common cancer-related deaths and poses one of the top ten most risk cancers globallyin many countries, is the thyroid carcinoma. In human cancers, there are important factor associated withit . The viral agent is one of them which is involved in the spread of tumors, including thyroid cancers. So,the present study was designed to determine the relationship between Cytomegalovirus infection with someIraqi patients who suffer from the thyroid carcinoma in tissue cancer from different site (papillary, follicularand lymph node) by using In Situ Hybridization Technique, related to their age, gender, site distribution,histological grade and the tumor stage. The sixty biopsies were randomly collected during the period betweenJune 2017 until October 2018,CMV was detected in(28.3%)(17 out of 60 patients, the mean age was 39years old, ranged between ( 27-72) years old, female to male ratio was (1.3 : 1) with 34 women and 26 men.The most of these cases were papillary carcinoma 39, followed by follicular 13 and the rest 8 cases were atthe lymph node. Histological grades that involved were 37 well differentiated, 18 were poorly differentiated,and 5 were moderately differentiated. Tumor staging included 43 patients who fall in stage I and II, whilethe rest 17 patients fall in stage III and IV. Regarding to the positive results, CMV correlates in a highlysignificant association with each of (age, gender, grading, tumor stage, and site distribution at p<0.01).It could be concluded from that the in situ hybridization is useful in the clinical evaluation of patients withthyroid carcinoma. And suggested that the viral agent cytomegalovirus is involved in thyroid carcinogenesisand may play an important role in the malignant transformation of thyroid cancer.

Abstract

The current study was carried out on six Iraqi breed rams, aged between 2 to 4 years, during the period fromNov. 2018 to the Mar. 2019. Semen samples were collected from each ram with electro ejaculator at themorning, one ejaculate per week over a time of 16 weeks. Pooled semen for all rams were used to evaluatethe characteristics of semen to avoid individual variation between the animals. The volume and the coloroffresh semen was recorded directly, then semen was evaluated for mass and individual motility, live/deadpercentage and sperm abnormalities. Semen samples were diluted 1:10 with a Tris-based extender, anddivided into seven parts (each part 2ml), 0.1µml, 1.0µml & 3.0µml concentration of melatonin were addedto the T1, T2 and T3 respectively, L-arginine were added to the T4, T5 and T6 in 0.001µmol, 0.1µmol and1.0µml concentration respectively while T7 serve as a control without any addition. All treatments cooled at4°c. Then semen parameters evaluated. It was concluded from this study that addition of 0.1 µmol melatoninsignificantly protected ram sperm cell from cold storage that induced negative effects on sperm function.However the addition of L-arginine have no beneficial effect on cooled ram semen.

Abstract

Background: Community-Acquired Pneumonia (CAP) is a lower respiratory tract infection with bacteriaas the most frequent causative agent. Therapy for pneumonia includes appropriate antibiotic usage.Inappropriate antibiotic use supposedly increase 30-days readmission and mortality rate.Objective: To evaluate the antibiotic use and the impact of appropriate antibiotic use on the 30-daysreadmission and mortality of CAP patients in inpatient non-ICU settings.Method: A cross-sectional, analytic study was conducted. We collected data from Universitas Airlanggahospital’s medical record to obtain the details of antibiotic usage. Result were evaluated using the Gyssensalgorithm. A chi-square test was used to identify the impact of appropriate antibiotic use on the 30-daysreadmission and mortality.Result: A total of 90 patients with CAP fulfilled the inclusion criteria. One gram of ceftriaxone IV wasthe most prescribed antibiotic for therapy of CAP. The amount of appropriate antibiotic use is 85.6%. Fivepatients (5.6%) went through the 30-days readmission. There was no death reported. The statistical testbetween antibiotic use and 30-days readmission obtained p value=0.894 (p>0.05).Conclusion: There was no significant impact of appropriate antibiotic use on the 30-days readmission rateand the mortality rate could not be assessed.
