Doppler assessment may lead to intervention that reduces the risk of fetal brain damage. Aim of thestudy: to assess the relation between ultrasonic hemodynamic Doppler indices of middle cerebral and umbilical arteries (PI, RI), growth indices to immediate neonatal outcomes (weight, head & abdominal circumference, APGAR scores at 1 and 5 minutes and neonatal unit admission) in women with mild, moderate and severe anemia during pregnancy. Present study is a clinical prospective study carried out in Al-Elwiya Maternity Teaching Hospital during (January-Jun) 2019, all anemic pregnant women presented to Obstetrical wards in hospitals for emergency cesarean section were the study population. The final sample selected was 120 pregnant women. Ultrasound Doppler velocimetry measurements like middle cerebral artery-peak systolic velocity (MCA-PSV), middle cerebral artery-pulsatility index (MCA-PI), middle cerebral artery-resistance index (MCA-PR), umbilical artery-pulsatility index (UA-PI), umbilical artery- resistance index (UA-RI), middle cerebral artery to umbilical artery- resistance index ratio (MCA/UA-RI) and middle cerebral artery to umbilical artery- pulsatility index ratio (MCA/UA-PI) were measured. Neonates with less than7had low vital activities (appearance, pulse, grimace, activity, and respiration). Mean MCA-PI of anemic pregnant women with severe anemia was 1.4ms which was significantly lower than pregnant women with mild and moderate anemia, also mean MCA/UA-PI of anemic pregnant women with severe anemia was significantly lower than mild and moderate anemia with p-value <0.001. as well as the Mean neonatal HC of anemic pregnant women with severe anemia 30 cm which was significantly lower than HC of pregnant women with mild and moderate anemia (p=0.04), also mean neonatal AC of pregnant women with mild, moderate and severe, Current study showed no statistical difference in Apgar scores between the studies group, The validity results of MCA/UA-PI ratio regarding neonatal HC of anemic pregnant women are Sensitivity (22.2%), specificity (41.7%). Severe maternal anemia is found significantly associated with abnormal Doppler study middle cerebral artery to umbilical artery pulsatility index. so Doppler middle cerebral artery to umbilical artery pulsatility index has limited validity in the prediction of neonatal outcomes in anemic pregnant women.
This study involved the effect of the aqueous extracts of two plants, Origanum vulgare L.(1), Trigonella Foenum Graecum L. (Fenugreek) seeds(2) on the growth of cancer cell lines. Rhabdomyo sarcomas (RD) of human cell line and female intestine cells of Albino mice (L20B) in vitro System. These extracts were compared with the known anticancer drug Cis-platinum(Cis-Pt) as a positive control. The phytochemical tests were used for screening the active compounds in plants. The inhibition activity assay was used as a parameter of the cytotoxic effect of these extracts. Cancer cell lines were treated with four concentrations of Cis-platin, 31.25, 62.5, 125 and 250 ?g/ml for 72 hour exposure time. The same concentrations were used for the other ext

Show MoreThis research aims at building a proposed training program according to the self-regulated strategies for the mathematics teachers and to identify the effect of this program on relational Mathematics of teachers. The sample of the research was (60) Math teachers; (30) teachers as experimental group and (30) teachers as control group. The results of the current research reacheded that the proposed training program according to some self-managed learning strategies, meets the needs of trainees with remarkable effectiveness to improve the level of their teaching performance to achieve the desired goals. Training teacher according to self-managed learning strategies is effective in bringing about the transition of training to their students
