Changes in Immune Markers for Prostate Cancer Patients Pre and Postoperation
...Show More Authors

This study includes 15 male healthy and 30 male patients diagnosed with prostate
cancer inciude (18 cases in stages I & II and 12 cases in III – stage). All the patients
were suffered from urinary tract infection ( UTI) . The mean age is (57.33± 5.02)
years range ( 45-63) years, as cases and controls Patients with prostate cancer were
treated admits an Educational Baghdad Hospital, and Central Public Health
Laboratory and Radiation and Nuclear Medicine Hospital in Baghdad, during
period 1/6/2008 to 1/12/2010 are included in this study. The markers Prostatespecific
antigen (CA PSA), Interleukins ( IL -1 , IL-2, IL-3, IL-5) and
Immunoglobulins ( IgG, IgM, IgE) are estimated by using ELISA method. The
Clean-Catch midstream urine of the patients were collected, and cultured on blood
agar and MacConky agar to isolation of the pathogenic bacteria causes and
associated with prostate cancer. The isolated bacteria were identified according to
morphological and using biochemical tests.
The aim of this study is to fined out changes in some immune markers in prostate
cancer patients and if any correlation exists between the tumor marker in patients
serum pre and post-operation, and the bacterial pathogens of the UTI and its
correlation with prostate cancer risk.
The results show , a significant difference in CAPSA levels between healthy
control and prostate cancer patients ( stages I , II , III ) pre-operation ( P> 0.05 ),
while no appear significant difference between healthy and patients post-operation ,
The comparison between prostate cancer pre and post-operation was showed a
significant difference ( t=7.042,P > 0.05 ) with positive correlation. However ,
statistical analysis shows a significant difference in interleukins ( IL–1 , IL–2 , IL
-3 , IL-5 ) between healthy and prostate cancer patients pre-operation, whereas no
significant difference between them in post-operation , only IL-5 , also is increased
significantly (P<0.05 ) and positive correlations in interleukins levels at prostate
cancer patients pre and post-operation. The results show a significant difference in
immunoglobulins (IgG, IgE, IgM ) between healthy control compared with prostate
cancer patients pre-operation, but no significant difference post-operation. By
comparing between prostate cancer pre and post-operation a significant
correlation(P>0.05) but only IgM has no correlation( r=0.149,P=0. 432) were
appeared.
In this study 30(100%) patients are shown to be urine culture positive. Were
inciude E. coli with frequency rate of 43.33%, Pseudomonas aerginosa (16.66 %),
Klebsiella spp. (16.66%), Enterobacter spp. (10 %), , Acinetobacter spp. (3.33%),
Serratia spp. (3.33%), and Staphylococci spp. (6.66%).

Using Linear Local Dependence Measure to Study the factors that are Leading to the Growth of Preferring the Application in Private Universities of Iraq
...Show More Authors

In this paper a measure of linear local dependence has been used between two
random variables and a study is conducted for the properties of this measure where
two examples of bivariate probability distributions has been considered, which are
bivariate Gumbel distribution and bivariate Beta-Stacy distribution, and applied on
data collected by using a questionnaire conducted to study the reasons for the
increase of application in private collages in Iraq. Five elements has been considered
as random variables and the dependence has been measured between every two
elements to estimate how correlated these elements are and their effect on the
application in private collages of Iraq generally and Baghdad specifically.<

Effect of different staining materials on color stability of sapphire brackets bonded with different types of light cure orthodontic adhesives (An in vitro study)
...Show More Authors

Background: The demand for better esthetic during orthodontic treatment has increased nowadays, so orthodontists starting using esthetic arch wires, brackets and ligatures.Tooth colored brackets were introduced in different types of materials. Sapphire ceramic brackets are one type of esthetic brackets and their color stability remains the main concern for the clinicians and patients at the same time. The present study design to evaluate the effect of three different staining materials (pepsi, black tea and cigarette smoke) on the stainability of sapphire ceramic brackets bonded with three types of light cure orthodontic adhesives which include: Resilience, Enlight and Transbond. Materials and Methods: The sample consisted of three hundre

FIRST RECORD OF THE LARGE-BILLED CROW CORVUS MACRORHYNCHOS WAGLER, 1827 PREDEATING ON THE VULNERABLE INDIAN ROOFED TURTLE PANGSHURA TECTA (GRAY, 1831) IN INDIA
...Show More Authors

The Vulnerable Indian Roofed Turtle Pangshura tecta (Gray, 1831) (Testudines: Geoemydidae) occurs in the Sub-Himalayan lowlands of India, Nepal, Bangladesh, and Pakistan. Little is known about its natural history, no studies have been conducted revealing its natural predators. In this study, a group of Large-billed Crow Corvus macrorhynchos Wagler, 1827 (Passeriformes: Corvidae) was observed hunting and predating on an Indian Roofed Turtle carcass in the bank of river Kuakhai, Bhubaneswar, India. The first record of this predation behaviour is reported and substantiated by photographic evidence.

The accession of countries to the World Trade Agreement and the openness of markets to each other without restrictions led to the emergence of the philosophy of "a world without borders and business units without countries", which required adapting the modern business environment to that philosophy, which is considered as objectives for the activities of the units that must be implemented in order to achieve competition. The objective of the units has changed from making profit to meeting the desires of customers, which is what imposed a new role for management accounting as a field of knowledge renewed in it visions of competitiveness between units. Because of the increasing needs for information in light of environmental change

Laboratory studies were conducted at the biological control unit, college of Agriculture, University of Baghdad to evaluate some biological aspects of the predator Chilocorus bipustulatus (Coleoptera: Coccinellidae), which is considered one of the most important predators on many insect pests, especially the scale insect, Parlatoria blanchardi, (Homoptera: Diaspididae) on date palms. The results showed that biological parameters of the predator were varied according to different degree of temperature. Egg incubation period was significantly different and reached to 7.5 and 5.44 day at 25 and 30°C respectively, Fertility was the same 100% at both temperature degrees. Larval growth periods were 17.41 and 16.12 day as well as the mortality du
