Abstract

Back ground : Diffuse hair loss is a very common complaint usually occurs without inflammation or scarring.The loss affects hairs throughout the scalp in a more or less uniform pattern . That is characterized by theingress of a large number of hairs prematurely into telogen phase resulting in diffuse hair shedding at onetime often with an acute onset so named acute telogen effluvium .A chronic form with a more insidious onsetand a longer duration also exists called chronic telogen effluvium which primarily affects women betweenthe ages of 30 and 60 years and is a diagnosis of exclusion and can cause a great psychological impact onthe life of the affected person.Objective: Measurement the level of serum ferritin and the level of serum vitamin D In adult females withchronic telogen effluvium in order to validate their role in the process of hair loss .Patients& Methods : This cross-sectional study was conducted at the outpatient Department of Dermatologyand Venereology in Al-kindy Teaching Hospital between March and November 2017.Sixty adult Female atage (12 to 52 years) with hair loss in the form of CTE otherwise they are healthy and sixty adult healthy withsame age-matched female with no hair loss were included in the study. Diagnosis was based upon clinicalexamination as well as hair pull test. Serum ferritin and vitamin D levels and Hemoglobin were determinedfor each participant .Results : Hair loss can have an emotional impact on patients leading to anxiety and frustration. Therefore,diagnosing the underlying etiology is necessary for the better management of the disorder The results of thisstudy suggest that the reduced hair density seen in CTE may possibly be associated with low serum levelsof ferritin and vitamin D. It is recommended that hemoglobin level measurement should not be solely reliedon in the assessment of hair loss, as it was not significantly different between patients with CTE and controlsas seen in our study.Conclusions: The female cases in this study had significantly low levels of serum ferritin and vitamin D thancontrols .Our study highlights the importance of serum ferritin and vitamin D evaluation in case of diffusehair fall.

Abstract

Background: Childhood pneumonia is an important cause of morbidity in the developed world and morbidityand mortality in the developing world. One of the challenges in planning the treatment of respiratory tractinfection in children is identifying the causative agent. The Community Acquired Pneumonia (CAP) presentsboth a diagnostic and therapeutic challenge to clinicians.Aims of the Study: To obtain the epidemiological profile, identify some etiological factors , assess theclinical presentations, x-ray findings and laboratory investigations of children with lower respiratory tractinfection at Child’s Central Teaching Hospital in Baghdad.Patients and Method: A total of 86 children were included in the study. we investigate the etiology of acutelower respiratory tract infection in children under two years admitted to central child teaching hospital fora period of three months in winter. Antibodies of RSV and Chlamydia Pneumonitis were detected usingELISA.Results: Whereas 38 of the children (44%) were diagnosed with pneumonia caused by Chlamydiapneumonitis. RSV was detected in 14 (16%) and 30 (35%) had combined infection .Age of most of thepatients was between one and six months with male predominance. CRP was negative(79%) in the majorityof our patients ,only 3 patients had lower positive titers. WBC differential count show predominance oflymophocytosis (58%) ,which is compatible with viral and atypical lower respiratory tract infection .Conclusion: The identification of the cause of ARI remains challenging, due either to inadequate samplesthat may lead to false negative results, or to difficult interpretation of positive findings between infectionand colonization. In our study the highest rate of acute lower respiratory tract infection was between age ofone and six months with predominance of male sex. Chlamydia microorganism was found in 44% of suchpatients with lower respiratory tract infection. Further studies are needed to identify other possible agents ofARI (e.g., influenza, adenoviruses, other bacterial infections) in this population and to better understand thecausal role of atypical bacteria detected in respiratory samples.

Abstract

The 2019 coronavirus disease (COVID-19) pandemic, originating in Wuhan, China, is becoming a majorpublic health problem for not only China, but countries all over the world as well. The World HealthOrganization (WHO) has reported that outbreaks of the novel coronavirus have become a globally worriedpublic health emergency. As of February 4, 2021, COVID-19 has been recognized in 235 countries, withmore than 105.000.000 (one hundred and five millions) laboratory-confirmed cases and above 2.280.000(million) deaths. To prevent the virus from further spreading and to help manage the disease situation,infection control measures are necessary. The risk of cross contamination can be high between patients anddental practitioners because of the characteristics of dental settings. Strict and efficient infection managementprotocols are urgently needed for dental practices and hospitals in areas which are (potentially) affected byCOVID-19. This article, based on our experience and relevant guidelines and research, introduces essentialknowledge about COVID-19 and nosocomial infection in dental settings and provides recommendedmanagement protocols for dental practitioners and students in (potentially) affected areas.

Abstract

The article examines the main challenges and threats to humankind caused by the New TechnologicalRevolution. Due to the development of genetic, information, and other technologies closely related topersonal and family data and the intervention of state and society into the physical and spiritual spheres ofindividuals and families, a significant role in making political, managerial, and other decisions is playedby civil society institutions. This includes procedures for the ethical and legal assessment (examination) ofnew technologies. During the rapid development of bioeconomics and the digital economy, both traditional(legislative norms) and non-traditional (norms of ethics, bioethics, and ethics of high technology) sourcesof law are gaining importance. In Russia, the issues of legal and ethical support for scientific, innovative,and other types of economic activity are still being formed. Following the path of innovative development,several developed economies adopted legal norms, legal institutions, and special laws to implement nationalbiopolicies. Methods: The authors of the article used general scientific methods (sociological, systemic,structural, and functional), the method of theoretical analysis, and special scientific methods (comparativelegaland technical-legal analysis, specification, and interpretation). The methodological basis of the researchwas laid by the theory of knowledge. Objective: The article aims to substantiate the need to adopt a Codeof Bioethics. This document should determine the foundations of biopolitics, its basic principles, objects,structures, and other constitutive features (characteristics). Results: The study has substantiated the need fordeveloping and adopting the Law “On Bioethics” and, subsequently, the Code of Bioethics.
