Tuberculosis is caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis; it is considered as one of the most common, infectious diseases and major causes of morbidity and mortality worldwide. A prospective study was conducted to obtain more clarification about the impact of causative agent and its treatment to enhance autoantibodies production such as ANCA and BPI which used as diagnostic markers for several diseases, and to provide further insight into the classical risk factors (age and sex).Seventy patients with tuberculosis involved in this study, 35 of them were untreated and 35 with treatment administration these patients were attending to directorate of general health national reference laboratory in Baghdad during the period between November/ 2012 and March/ 2013 as well as 20 apparently healthy volunteers as control group. Their ages ranged between 11-70 years.The present study revealed that most patients at the third decades of age; male were affected more than female (1.8:1).Estimation of serum ANCA were done by indirect immunofluorescent (IIF) whereas BPI measured by enzyme linked immune sorbent assay (ELISA) and comparing with healthy control (H.C) group.The current study revealed that high significant increasing of ANCA and BPI in tuberculosis patients 71.43% and 15.71% respectively as compared with H.C 15% and 0% respectively. Also the data of the research showed significant differences of ANCA between untreated group 82.85% and treated group 60%. As well as our results showed differences of BPI percentage between, before treatment group 17.14% and after treatment group 14.28% but non-significant (p> 0.05).These results showed that Mycobacterium tuberculosis plays pivotal role in stimulation autoantibodies production. In contrast to our study on the treatment influences had yielded controversial results. Clinically, present of positive ANCA in patients with TB confused the diagnosis of Wegener's granulomatosis as many of the clinical features of this disease eg. Haemoptysis and pulmonary infiltrate may also be found in patients with TB.
Abstract
This research’s goal is to restore and to revive the jurisprudence of Mother of Believers (Um alMuaamineen) “Um Salmah” "may God bless her", and to highlight her outstanding assimilation and understanding of religion and her conscious thought. The current research is a comparative scientific theoretical study represented in the comparison of jurisprudence of “Um Salamah” with Hadiths of fasting and pilgrimage rules as well as the duration mentioned in jurisprudence of for doctrines( 4 schools of thought )to identify these hadiths with the inclusion and discussion of their evidence.
The current research included two topics: the first one is to identify and introduce
... Show MoreIn our research, we dealt with one of the most important issues of linguistic studies of the Holy Qur’an, which is the words that are close in meaning, which some believe are synonyms, but in the Arabic language they are not considered synonyms because there are subtle differences between them. Synonyms in the Arabic language are very few, rather rare, and in the Holy Qur’an they are completely non-existent. And how were these words, close in meaning, translated in the translation of the Holy Qur’an by Almir Kuliev into the Russian language.
