Abstract

Background: The heritability of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is approximately 40% to 65% for seropositive RA and 20% for seronegative RA. The risk of developing RA has been associated with human leukocyte antigen HLA-DRB1 alleles: HLA-DRB1*04, HLA-DRB1*01, and HLA-DRB1*010 in deferent ethnocentrism. These HLA-DRB1 alleles contain a stretch of conserved five amino acid sequence, the shared epitope (SE), in the third hypervariable region of their DRB1 chain, which has been associated with the risk of developing Aim of the study: to study the possible association of HLA-DRB1 gene polymorphism of Arabic ethnocentrism PA patients in Babylon Province, Iraq. Patients and methods: The present case control study was conducted on sixty one patients (18 males and 43 females) of Arabic ethnocentrism RA patients admitted to Rheumatoid Unit in Merjan Teaching Medical City, Babylon Province, Iraq, as well as 127 apparently healthy control subjects (41 males, 86 females) as control group. Results: The risk of HLAD-RB1*01 allele was assessed through calculation of odds ratio (OR) which was estimated to be 1.95 (95 % confidence interval of 1.03 to 3.70). The risk of HLAD-RB1*04 allele was assessed through calculation of odds ratio (OR) which was estimated to be 4.46 (95 % confidence interval of 2.32 to 8.55). The risk of HLAD-RB1*010 allele was assessed through calculation of odds ratio (OR) which was estimated to be 3.12 (95 % confidence interval of 1.39 -7.00). Conclusion: The current study documented that RA is significantly associated with the locus HLA-DRB1* and allelic groups HLA-DRB1*01, HLA-DRB1*04 and HLA-DRB1*010 in Iraqi patients with RA

Abstract

Background: Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) is amongst the most infectious and almost half of the country’s population is affected by a chronic bacterial infection. H. pylori evoke an inflammatory reaction of the host epithelium, leading to induction of immune cells which exhibit as gastritis. There is little knowledge of how pylori remain in the host’s antimicrobial agents, such as calprotectin (CP), which is found through an immune response. Objective: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the role of fecal calprotectin (FC) in subjects with gastric ulcer and correlation of it with H. pylori. Methods: 25 patients with gastric ulcer and 25 healthy controls were included in a prospective study. Samples of blood are taken IgG antibody H pylori and stool specimen for measured of calprotectin level. Results: All gastric ulcer patients infected with H pylori. From a total of 25 patients participating in this study 8 were man and 17 women with the mean age 40.6±15.8. There was a statistically meaningful difference between the groups analyzed (p=0.0001) dependent on the calprotectin level. Also found significant association between sex and calprotectin level according to the positivity of H pylori.Conclusion: There’s a significant statistical between fecal calprotectin level and H. pylori infection in gastric ulcer patients.

The study aims at: assess nurse’s knowledge regarding management of patients who undergo the transurethral resection of the bladder tumor. A descriptive study is conducted during the periods of July 29th 2018 to December 25th 2019.The study conducted in Hilla Teaching Hospital and Al’imam Alsadiq Teaching Hospital were the designated site for data collection. By non-probability “purposive sample” of (51) nurses, data were collected for pre-post test and analyzed a descriptive and inferential statistical data analysis approach. Results of the study depicts that age of the nurses ranged from 20- 43 years, (60%) of nurses in the control group, there were somewhat less female nurses (45.2%) than male nurses (54.8%) in the study group and (32%) were female and (68%) nurses male in the control group, (80.6%were married in the study group and 22 (88%) were married in the control group, education was from a secondary nursing school and institute degree (35.5%) for each degree in the study group, and (48%) institute degree in the control group, (1-5) years was (67.7%) in the study group and (68%) in the control group.
