Abnormalities in the Lipid and lipoprotein levels are common in the general population and are considered as very important risk- factors for cardiovascular disease .In this context the effect of cholesterol, which is one of the most clinically relevant lipids is very important. Aim of the present study was to determine the levels of GLP-1 and GPCR in non- diabetic dyslipidaemic patients and compare the results with the control group, which may be used as a novel biomarker to predict heart disease in these patients. The study was also aimed to find the relationship between GLP-1 and GPCR with lipid profile and glucagon in the patient group. The study involved 90 non-diabetic dyslipidaemia patients, with 90 healthy controls. The subjects were matched by age (35-50 years) and body mass index (BMI) (28 kg/m2). Blood samples were collected from healthy controls and dyslipidaemic patients after 12-14 hours of fasting. The study was conducted between January 2015– September 2015 in the Ibn- Al Naphes hospital in Baghdad province / Iraq .Diabetic patients were exclusion from this study. BMI were determined for all student groups.FBG, Lipid Profile ,glucagon, GLP-1, GPCR was determined in the control and patient groups. The results are expressed as mean ± SEM. Student ̓s t-test was used to compare the significance of the variation between dyslipidaemia and control groups. Results showed nonsignificant elevations in BMI, FBS, and HbA1c levels in the patient group compared with the control group. There was a significant elevation in TC, TG, LDL-c, and VLDL-c levels in the patient group compared with the control group, while a significant decrease was noticed in HDL-c level in the patient group compared with the control group .There was also a significant elevation in glucagon, while a highly significant elevation in GLP-1 and GPCR levels in the patient group when compared with the control group. A significant correlation was observed between GLP-1 with TC, TG, HDL-c, and GPCR in the patient group. There was also a significant correlation between GPCR with TC, TG and HDL-c in the patient group. From this study, it is concluded that a significant increase in GLP-1and GPCR levels, in addition to their correlation with TC, TG, HDL-c and glucagon in the patient group, compared to the control group indicate that these parameters could be used as a novel biomarker to predict heart disease in these patients in future.
A comparison of double informative and non- informative priors assumed for the parameter of Rayleigh distribution is considered. Three different sets of double priors are included, for a single unknown parameter of Rayleigh distribution. We have assumed three double priors: the square root inverted gamma (SRIG) - the natural conjugate family of priors distribution, the square root inverted gamma – the non-informative distribution, and the natural conjugate family of priors - the non-informative distribution as double priors .The data is generating form three cases from Rayleigh distribution for different samples sizes (small, medium, and large). And Bayes estimators for the parameter is derived under a squared erro

... Show MoreThe present article studies the specific cultural features contained in phraseological units. The problem is approached through three different levels:
- The modern linguistic meaning.
- Lexical components of phraseological units.
- The first variables of linguistic units.
The paper emphasizes the gradual process of the cultural charge in the semantic structure of phraseological units.

In this paper, a Bayesian analysis is made to estimate the Reliability of two stress-strength model systems. First: the reliability of a one component strengths X under stress Y. Second, reliability of one component strength under three stresses. Where X and Y are independent generalized exponential-Poison random variables with parameters (α,λ,θ) and (β,λ,θ) . The analysis is concerned with and based on doubly type II censored samples using gamma prior under four different loss functions, namely quadratic loss function, weighted loss functions, linear and non-linear exponential loss function. The estimators are compared by mean squared error criteria due to a simulation study. We also find that the mean square error is

The effect of UV-light on the tensile properties of pure PC has been studied. It was shown that irradiation of PC undergo a drop in the tensile properties of 30 hour of exposure. The results of irradiated samples shows that the addition of ZnO and TiO2 with different percentages (0.5, 1, 1.5 %) will reduce the Young modulus and ultimate stress of PC/ZnO ,PC/ TiO2 composites
