Abstract

Many of previous studies on lactating animals with natural litters did not support the negative link betweenlitter size and pup mass; however, artificial manipulation of litters could be an option to support that. Inthis study, we manipulated the litters of lactating BALB/C mice with having two groups. Enlarged litter SL(LS=8; N=5) and reduced litters SS (LS=2; N=6) were used in this experiment and also 7 virgin female micewere assigned for control group. Mother’s body mass and food intake were daily measured throughout theexperiment. Litter size, litter mass, pup mass, mortality rate of pups in the studied groups were also dailymeasured throughout lactation. The lactating mice in both groups significantly ate more food intake comparedto non –reproducing mice. Mice with enlarged litters had significantly greater food intake compared to themice with reduced litters. Litter masses at weaning of SL mice were significantly higher compared to theSS mice. However, pup mass at weaning was significantly lighter in SL mice compared to the pup mass inthe SS mice. Our present study concludes that the litter size of manipulated litters was negatively associatedwith pup mass at weaning

Abstract

The study was conducted in the city of Kirkuk in July 2020 and included 100 people who visited hospitalsand health sectors in the city of Kirkuk, which is located in northern Iraq. As the study included ages thatranged between 12 and 72 years and from both sexes, the study also included 100 people who did not sufferfrom any symptoms or signs related to the Covid-19 virus. As the people who were included in the studyare from the people who reviewed, like what we said in hospitals and sectors, and they were suffering fromhigh temperatures, cough or both, fatigue and fatigue, and those who had direct contact with infected peoplewere taken from them and from a group of nasopharyngeal swabs for detection of Covid-19 virus by PCR.The PCR tests were done by the PCR in the Public Health Laboratory and the Kirkuk General Hospital,and special thanks to the staff. These checks were made for patients by protocols by the Iraqi Ministryof Health and the World Health Organization to investigate the RNA of the virus. The study showed theprevalence of Covid-19 was 66% in suspected patients and 10% in healthy persons. The study demonstratedthat, majority of patients with novel corona virus infection were from urban area. The study showed that,majority of patients were aged from 22 to 41 years of old (P. value <0.001). The study showed that 63.64%of COVID-19 patients were males compared with 36.36% females (P<0.05). The study showed that 51.52%of COVID-19 patients were smokers (P>0.05). The study demonstrated that, 45.45% of COVID-19positive patients were with mild infection, 18.18% were with asymptomatic features, 16.67%were with moderate infection and 4.55% were with severe infection while 80% of healthy personwho was +ve to Covid-19 were with asymptomatic infection

Abstract

The study aims to evaluate nurses’ practices toward using personal protective equipment, and to identify therelationships between nurses’ demographics including (age, gender, education level, and years of experiencesin kidney transplantation units) and their practices toward aseptic techniques. A quasi-experimental study,quantitative design (One-group Pretest - Posttest) was conducted on nurse’s practice toward aseptictechniques in kidney transplant units. It was carried out in order to achieve the early stated objectives withthe application of pretest and posttest. A non-probability (purposive) sample of (30) nurses who are workingin kidney transplant unit, that’s selected based on the study criterion, and after obtaining oral consent fromthem, those nurses were distributed in kidney transplant units at Medical City complex. The study Instrumentwas composed of two Parts: The First Part is concerned with the socio-demographic characteristics, and thesecond Part includes Nurses’ Practices. Content validity of the instrument was established through a penalof (12) experts. Reliability of the instrument scales determined the internal consistency by using test-retestapproach through the computation of Pearson correlation coefficient of the scale which was r=0.83 for nurse’practices. Results have been analyzed through the use of SPSS “Statistical Package for Social Sciences”model 24.0 by using descriptive and inferential statistical methods. Findings of the present study revealedthat most of the samples were within the age of (40 - 49) years who were accounted (40%). It has beenpresented that there were significant differences in the mean of the study sample between the pre and post testprocedures, revealing a significant improvement in nurses’ practices regarding using of personal protectiveequipment. Moreover, a high significant difference was also presented among the whole study sample at preand post-test practices, t-test value (8.462) at p value (.000). The study recommended that nurses shouldbe committed to follow and apply standards of using the personal protective equipment, sharing in trainingsessions, improve practices through self-learning and training, and establishing future studies to measurenurses’ practices toward using personal protective equipment at all healthcare settings in Iraq.

Abstract

Background: The use of dual-chambers (DDD) pacemakers is steadily increasing a year after year and oneof the programmable settings for these pacemakers is the duration of the atrioventricular interval (AVI).AVI manipulation is justified for a variety of reasons including better hemodynamic stability and extendingthe battery life of the pacemaker. Since plasma NT-proBNP level reflects the myocardial wall tension, wehypothesized that different durations of AVI may have an effect on cardiomoycytes stretch and myocardialwall tension and hence an effect on plasma NT-proBNP level. So we tried to use plasma NT-proBNP as amarker for that strain, if present. Also, we tried to explore the effect of DDD pacemakers on both the systolicand the diastolic functions of the heart using conventional echocardiographic parameters.Methods: 52 patients with permanent dual-chambers pacemaker were recruited. We exclude those withheart failure, renal impairment, and major valvular or coronary vessels disease. All patients had a thoroughmedical history and examination, ECG, echocardiography (2-D, M-mode, and Doppler) as well as bloodsampling for NT-proBNP. Based on the shape of their E-A waves by pulsed-wave Doppler of transmitralflow, they were grouped in 3 categories. Group-A included those with truncated A-wave, group-B comprisedthose with separated E and A waves, and group-C involved those with fused E-A waves with or withoutdiastolic mitral regurgitation.Results: there was statistically significant difference in the duration of AVI among the 3 groups (p <0.001)with patients having fused E-A waves recorded the longest AVIs. Plasma NT-proBNP levels were significantlyhigher when E-A waves were fused (p <0.001). The systolic parameters such as the cardiac output, the strokevolume and the ejection fraction were higher when there was neither A-wave truncation nor E-A wavefusion (p <0.001). All patients showed evidences of diastolic dysfunction.Conclusion: despite the fact that DDD pacemakers are more physiological mode of pacing, neverthelessthey induce some grade of diastolic heart failure. Manipulating the AVI into longer than the device`s defaultvalues should be carefully judged since it is associated with higher levels of plasma NT-proBNP levels thatreflect cardiac wall tension and strain which in turn may progresses in future into another cardiac problemssuch as atrial fibrillation.

Abstract

Dyslipidemia, a metabolic syndrome characteristic, includes increased flux of free fatty acids, high densitylipoprotein cholesterol, low-density lipoprotein, and triglycerides. One of the main topics of screening andmanagement in adult and child populations has been dyslipidemiaThe aim of this study was to evaluate non-fasting and fasting when measuring the lipid profile of patientswith dyslipidemia.This study was performed 80 male of dyslipidemia patients, they were monitored and their lipid profilelevels measured during non- fasting were collected after 2 hours of meal, and varying hours of fastingperiods includes (4 hours, 6 hours, and 8 hours).In this study we did not found any significant clinical difference between non-fasting and fasting levels oftotal cholesterol, and low-density lipoprotein and high-density lipoprotein. Thus, we can use the non-fastingblood samples to estimate lipid profile in follow-up the dyslipidemia patients. When comparing the fastinghours, we observed mean triglyceride for all period of fasting were differences, as compared to the nonefforts fasting state significant differences P< 0.001Finally, there is no need to make fasting lipid profile mandatory. This study suggests that should be made tosimplify the sampling of blood by replacing the profile of fasting lipids with the profile of non-fasting lipids.
