Abstract

Background: There is a great risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD) and vascular thrombosis in patients with End-Stage Renal Disease (ESRD). These patients exhibit numerous abnormalities in coagulation, fibrinolytic, inhibitory protein abnormalities in multiple levels. Aim: To assess hypercoagulable changes by measuring the levels of Antithrombin, plasma fibrinogen and FXII activity in patients with ESRD, and to found correlation between and hematological parameters including: Hb level, WBC count, reticulocyte percentage and platelet count. Method: A case control study conducted at Al-Hayat center, Al Karama teaching hospital during the period from the 1 of February to the 30 of October 2014 and 50 patients aged < 60 years of both genders with (ESRD) in addition to 20 apparently healthy controls were included in this study. Results: Patients and controls were matched for age and gender. The mean hemoglobin level, total WBC count, absolute neutrophil count, reticulocyte percentage and platelets count were significantly lower in ESRD patients than controls, P<0.05. The mean values of the coagulation parameters, ProthrombinTtime (PT), Activated Partial Thromboplastin Time (APTT), Plasma Fibrinogen and Factor XII activity were significantly higher in patients than controls. Anti-thrombin activity was significantly lower in patients group than controls, (P<0.001). Cardiovascular complications and vascular thrombosis included Deep Venous Thrombosis( DVT), Cerebro-Vascular-Accident (CVA), Myocardial Infarction (MI), angina or heart failure reported in 62% of the patients. Patients with cardiovascular complication and vascular thrombosis had significantly higher PT, APTT, and factor XII activity, lower anti-thrombin activity as compared to those without cardiovascular complication and vascular thrombosis. Conclusion: (ESRD) patients had coagulation abnormalities render them more liable to have cardiovascular complications and vascular thrombosis.

Abstract

Background: The purpose of this study was to determine the relation between increasing in the body mass index (BMI) value and sex hormones level represented by sex hormon binding globulin (SHBG), Thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH), testosterone and prolactine in 51 women in reproductive age aiming following the life quality of these females. Method: Participants were 51 women from center of Baghdad city. Every female full a questionnaire and sex hormone concentration from each female were measured. Level of FBS and HbA1c test was estimated and designed as exclusion criteria for diabetic mellitus and other metabolic disorders. Body mass index value was compared by demographic properties, Pearson’s correlation coefficient and A stepwise method in linear regression statistic test was applied to detect the association of BMI (kg/m2) with serum sex hormon binding globulin (SHBG), Thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH), testosterone and prolactine and predict the most affected factor. Results: The mean and standard deviation level of most studied parameter were not differences between case study and control females group (obese vs non-obese) in compared with normal value of each test. BMI value were negatively correlated with age and SHBG (nmol/l) level (r = 0.156; P= 0.274) and (r = 0.578; P = 0.00) respectively. While BMI were moderately positive correlated with testosterone (nmol/l), TSH (?IU/ mL) and prolactin (ng/ml) (r = 0.388; P = 0.005), (0.354; P = 0.011) and (0.37; P = 0.006) respectively. Depending on the stepwise method in linear regression analyses, the SHBG (nmol/l) and testosterone (nmol/l) were the most independent predictor factors for BMI in the studied groups (? = 0,484; P = 0.001) and (? = 0.348; P = 0.001) respectively. Conclusions: The most factors affecting obesity identified in the study were SHBG, Testosterone. However, other variables such as age, did not impact the BMI value of participants.

Abstract

Introduction: Exercise has a positive effect on health, strength gain, weight control, social activity and self development, contribute to the development of healthy habits in adults, but can also cause hypoglycemia. The variety, weight and duration of administration can cause various hormones (insulin, glucagon, catecholamine glucocorticoid), mediated metabolism. when the administration of insulin derived from insulin and / or an increase in anti-regulatory hormones increase glucose production in the liver and damage glucose in skeletal muscles. Although potential hyperglycemia can scare patients and their families, recipient fear of hypoglycemia can be a serious problem for clinical attention. Objectives: To determine impact of juvenile diabetes long-term treatment upon adolescents’ physical activity and to discovery out the relationship between impact of long-term treatment with adolescents specific demographic data. Methodology: A descriptive study design was performed to determine the impact of juvenile diabetes long-treatment upon adolescent’s physical activity in Al Nasiriya diabetic and endocrinology center. The study had started from February 6th, 2019 to June 7th, 2019. Non – probability (accidental) sample of (100) adolescents were selected. Conclusion: The present study concludes that the greatest impact of long-term treatment of diabetes on the adolescents lifestyle was on physical activity; in addition the statistical test shows that the significant association between the adolescents’ physical activity and their age, socio-economic status.
