Background: LasA protease play a major role in the colonization of the bacteria to the cornea during bacterial keratitis by preventing other bacteria from colonization to the cornea, for example in the mixed infection with S. aureus the enzyme eradicate the bacteria by their lysis it and finally eliminate the competitive for P. aeruginosa bacteria.
Objective: To study the role of LasA protease of Pseudomonas aeruginosa in the treatment of experimental keratitis caused by S. aureus.
Patients and methods: One hundred - twenty clinical samples (corneal scraping) were collected from patients suspected with bacterial keratitis presenting to Ibn Al-Haitham Teaching Hospital from May 2013 until November 2013. The bacterial isolate of P. a

Background: Sirenomelia is a rare congenital malformation characterized by fusion of the lower limbs giving a characteristic mermaid-like appearance to the affected fetus. It is commonly associated with gastrointestinal, genitourinary, cardiovascular and musculoskeletal system defects.
Objective : To report the clinical manifestations of an extremely rare and complex malformation along with the associated anomalies.
Case report: A case of sirenomelia was reported in a one of a set of twin delivered at term by caesarean section to a 39 year old Iraqi mother. According to the search that has been done, it seems that this is the first reported case in this country. The following associated anomalies ( imperforate anus, absence of exte

The study aimed to estimate the content of lead and determine the quality of the internal coating of metal cans through electrical conductivity as well as to determine the accuracy of the information card for some types of canned food that available in local markets. The information card test showed that all of these samples contained the name of the food, trade mark, country origin, weight, and components, as was indicated by the company producing in all of them except for the C₁₂ sample which was otherwise, and the batch number was mentioned in all samples except for the C₃ and C₁₇ which was not clear and not mentioned in the C₂₁, and the validity period was observed (produce and fini

Background:

Foreign body inhalation is a life threating event in children and it is common in our country ,which is  a daily practice of Thoracic .It  can lead to morbidity even mortality in the hands of untrained or not well- trained doctors.

Aim:

Is to report a case of missed foreign body inhaled 15-years back, which is uncommonly reported in the literatures and to compare it with other studies reporting similar cases.

Methods:

The details, presentation, clinical findings, radiological appearance and the successful removal by a rigid bronchoscope under general

Multilayer reservoirs are currently modeled as a single zone system by averaging the reservoir parameters associated with each reservoir zone. However, this type of modeling is rarely accurate because a single zone system does not account for the fact that each zone's pressure decreases independently. Pressure drop for each zone has an effect on the total output and would result in inter-flow and the premature depletion of one of the zones. Understanding reservoir performance requires a precise estimation of each layer's permeability and skin factor. The Multilayer Transient Analysis is a well-testing technique designed to determine formation properties in more than one layer, and its effectiveness over the past two decades has been

Background:

Criminal mediation is one of the new means that seeks to resolve criminal disputes away from the traditional procedures of criminal cases and outside the court, but under his supervision and supervision, the mediation process is based on the consensual idea of ​​ending the conflict as it gives both the offender and the victim a role in resolving the next conflict between them Outside the judiciary, with the intervention of a third party from the third party (the mediator), who has the main role in the success of the mediation process, and the mediator is obligated to inform the judicial authority of the results of the mediation, and then the judicial authority later has discretion in the return report, otherwise You will either go th
