Distribution of pslA among Local Isolates of Biofilm- Producing Pseudomonas aeruginosa
...Show More Authors

16S rRNA gene sequence examination is an effective instrument for characterization of new pathogens in clinical specimens. Akey component of colonization, biofilm formation, and protection of the pragmatic human pathogen Pseudomonasaeruginosais the biosynthesis of the exopolysaccharide Psl.Extracellular polysaccharides,biofilm, are secreted by microorganisms into the neighboring environment and are significant for surface attachment and keeping structural safety within biofilms.Biofilm production is an important technique for the survival of P. aeruginosa,and its association with antimicrobial resistance represents a defy for patient therapeutics. The aim of the current research is to assess the antibiotic resistance manner and distribution of the pslA gene among biofilm producingP. aeruginosa isolates, which have beengained from some hospitals in Baghdad, Iraq. Twenty-five P. aeruginosa isolates were obtained fromDepartment of Biology, College of Science, University of Baghdad. TheP. aeruginosa isolates were recognized using standard bacteriological techniques. Drug susceptibility test was done by disk diffusion technique for all the isolates against five antimicrobial agents.DNA was extracted from twenty-fiveP. aeruginosa isolates, which were selected as being resistant to gentamicin using the polymerase chain reaction(PCR). A specific primer pair was used to amplify 16S rRNA by a conventional PCR technique. Biofilm development was measured by microtiter plate test. The results of 16S rRNA showed that all 25 selected isolates were resistant to gentamicin harbored this gene. Biofilm formation was observed in 24/25(96%) of the P. aeruginosa isolates. The possibility of biofilm formation was remarkablyrelatedtothe resistance to gentamicin. In addition, the pslA gene was existed in all biofilm and non-biofilm producing the selected isolates with a frequency of 100% (n = 25).16S rRNA sequencing can be used to identify genetically atypical P. aeruginosa isolates from different origins. Theresults of the currentresearch well clarified that the P. aeruginosa biofilm-forming isolates were more resistant to the tested antibiotics. What is more, because of wide spreading, it appears that the pslA gene is associated with biofilm formation.

Occupational Stress among Doctors Work in Governmental Hospitals
...Show More Authors

The current research aims to identify the occupational stresses of doctors who are working in governmental hospitals according to the variables of gender and career ranking. The researcher adopted a scale to measure the occupational stress of (1088) doctors (561 males and 527 females) working in governmental hospitals. The results have shown that doctors have a high level of professional stress, but there is no significant difference between doctors in terms of gender. However, there were significant differences in favor of novice residents.

Bruxism and Sleep Quality Among Iraqi Dental Students
...Show More Authors

Background: Undergraduate dental students are more susceptible to situations of stress that affected quality of sleep, such profiles of stress may result in sleep bruxism and/or awake bruxism, parafunctions that can affect oral and general health. The aim of the study was to evaluate the association of sleep bruxism, awake bruxism and sleep quality among dental students. Materials and methods: A cross-sectional study was performed including 260 Iraqi dental students from university of Baghdad aged from 20to25years old. Students enrolled in the third and fifth class participated in the study. The Pittsburgh Sleep Questionnaire Index (PSQI) was used for data collection. The PSQI was distributed during lecture classes. Sleep bruxism and awake
