Background: A review of articles of method in treating compound phalangeal fractures by using mini-external fixator, elaborating the anatomy, mechanics, modalities of treatment, and complications of these types of fractures. Also, it compares between different studies regarding the functional results and final outcome. External fixation of phalangeal fractures is a good method for osteo synthesis in certain situations. The simplicity of the surgical procedure and the minimal disruption of the normal bone architecture also make it appealing. Objectives: Evaluating the functional results of the use of mini-external fixator for the treatment of compound fractures of phalangeal bones of the hand. Method: Our study consists of 15 patients, 12 were male and 3 was female, treated with external fixator for sever open hand fractures at Al-Kindy teaching hospital during the period from June 2011 – June 2013, using 2 K-wires bonded by IV needle cover, or 2 K-wires bonded by bone cement. Results: In comparison between different studies, external fixation offers several advantages. It allows preservation of the bone architecture, union of the fracture, facilitating healing of the disrupted area, and good functional results. External fixation is versatile, adapting to a wide range of clinical situations. This method of fixation provides good stability and adequate control of comminuted fractures, allowing not only anatomic restoration but also early active motion. Conclusion: External fixators are appropriate in cases of open, comminuted, unstable fractures. Other appropriate settings for external fixation include temporal management of fractures and length preservation of a functional digit.
This study was designed to evaluate the effect of anesthesia on thyroid hormones (T3, T4, rT3), thyrotropin(TSH), and cortisol levels in patients undergoing major urological surgery. The study included fifty patients scheduled for elective major urological surgery where 70% of the patients underwent general anesthesia, while30% underwent regional anesthesia. All patients were in stable control general conditions. The study showed that the thyroid hormones, thyrotropin and cortisol levels were affected with general anesthesia more than regional. The levels of these hormones responded to anesthetics and surgical stresses. This response was thought to be mainly mediated by afferent neurogenic impulses from the area of injury. Therefore, ab

This study aimed to evaluate ADA, lipid profile, and total protein among children infected with E.vermicularis. This research was carried out in Baghdad province from October 2021 to the end of March 2022. One hundred samples were collected from both sexes, ranging in age from (3-16) years. They all underwent examination for ADA, cholesterol, low-density lipoprotein (LDL), high-density lipoprotein (HDL), and total protein levels. Results showed no significant differences between E.vermicularis positive group and E.vermicularis negative group regarding ADA, LDL, and trig

Nickel is one of these toxic heavy metal when presented in a high values over its allowable limit. This work studies the complexation of some amino acid (Glycine, Histidine, and Arginine) with nickel (II) ion and compare the result with complexation of EDTA (the synthesized amino acid) used in the chelation therapy. Our experiment were performed in a phosphate buffer of PH (7.2) and in a different temperature (283, 288,293, 298, 303)K . The results show a high tendency for these amino acid to nickel ion with an equilibrium constant in arrange of [KNi(II)-EDTA(17.2×108) > KNi(II
