Prevalence and Identification of Some Ocular Bacterial Infections in Baghdad City

The study included 176 patients attended to Iben AL-Haithem hospital of ophthalmology in Baghdad city , at age of (14-77) years from the period from September 2016-April 2017, there were 138(78%) patients having a positive culture of ocular bacterial infections. Men were representing 41% while women 59%, the patients with bacterial ocular infection from Baghdad were55% while the internally displaced were 45% , the patients with ocular bacterial infections were representing 20% at mean age of 21.6±0.3y, 26% at 37.5±0.21y , 24% at53.5±0.23 y and 30% at69.5±0.10 y. The results showed 37% of the patients with ocular bacterial infections were having a history of diabetes mellitus and 44% with high blood pressure at mean age of 69.5±0.10 y. Gram positive bacteria represented 58% from the total isolates ,while gram negative were 42% . S.aureus was the common dominant isolates 29% followed by S.pneumoniae 21% , P.areuginosa 16% ,E coli 11% , Klibseilla spp 7% S.epidermidis 6%,Enterobacter spp6% , S.pyogenes 2% , Citrobacter freundii and Proteus spp 1% each of them , the mix infection was found in three samples including (E. coli and P. aeruginosa),( E. coli and S. aureus) and (P. aeruginosa and S. aureus) . S. aureus isolates were susceptible to Amikacin 88%, Doxycycline 84% and they were highly resistance to Clindamycin 76% , while S.epidermidis isolates were susceptible to each of Amikacin, Cloramphenicol , Clindamycin and Doxycycline at a percentage of 80% and they were resistance to tetracycline 60% . S.pneumoniae isolates were susceptible to Clarithromycin 94% , Ceftriaxone 88%, S.pyogenes isolates were susceptible 100% to the most types of antibiotics such as Erythromycin , Clarithromycin , Cloramphenicol , Clindamycin and Ceftriaxone . P.areuginosa isolates were susceptible to Gentamicin 100%.,Ciprofloxacin , Doxycycline , Amikacin 72% for each antibiotic ,while E.coli isolates were susceptible to Cloramphenicol 90%, Ciprofloxacin and Gentamicin 80%. Klibseilla spp isolates were susceptible to Ciprofloxacin and Gentamicin 100%, Ceftriaxone 83% while Proteus spp isolate were susceptible to all types of antibiotics 100% Enterobacter spp isolates were susceptible to Ciprofloxacin 100% ,both of Gentamicin and Cloramphenicol 80% , Citrobacter freundii isolate were susceptible to Ceftriaxone , Cloramphenicol , Ciprofloxacin , Gentamicin 100%.

Annual Behavior of Electron Density and Critical Frequency Parameters During Maximum and Minimum Years of Solar Cycles 22, 23 and 24
Abstract<p>In this work, the annual behavior of critical frequency and electron density parameters of the ionosphere have been studied for the years (1989, 2001 and 2014) and (1986, 1996 and 2008) which represent the maximum and minimum of years in the solar cycles (22, 23 and 24) respectively. The annual behavior of (Ne, f<sub>o</sub> ) parameters have been investigated for different heights of Ionosphere layer (100 -1000) Km. The dataset was created both of critical frequency and electron density parameters by using the international reference ionosphere model (IRI-2016 model). This study showed result that during the maximum solar cycles the values of the (Ne) parameter change with </p> ... Show More

Prediction the widths of maxillary and mandibular canines and premolars from the widths of maxillary incisors and first molars (Iraqi study)

Background: This study aimed to use the combined mesio-distal crowns widths of maxillary incisors and first molars as predictors to the combined mesio-distal crowns widths of maxillary and mandibular canines and premolars. Materials and methods: The sample included 110 Iraqi Arab subjects with an age ranged between 17-25 years and class I skeletal and dental relations. The crown widths of maxillary teeth and mandibular canines and premolars were measured at the largest mesio-distal dimension on the study casts using digital electronic caliper with 0.01 mm sensitivity. Pearson’s correlation coefficient was used to determine the relation between the combined mesio-distal crowns widths of maxillary incisors and first molars and the combined

Assessment of Salivary α-amylase and Flow Rate Levels and Their Correlation with Gingivitis and Severity of Chronic Periodontitis (Part: 1)

Background: Periodontal diseases are bacterial infections of the gingiva, bone and attachment fibers that support the teeth and hold them in the jaw. α-amylase is an enzyme, produced mainly by parotid gland and it seems to play a role in maintaining mucosal immunity. Aims of the study: Determine the salivary levels of α-Amylase and flow rate and their correlations with clinical periodontal parameters(Plaque Index , Gingival Index , Bleeding on Probing , Probing Pocket Depth , and Clinical Attachment Level ) and the correlation between α-Amylase with flow rate of study groups that consist of ( patients had gingivitis and patients had chronic periodontitis with different severities(mild ,moderate ,severe) and control group . Ma

Preparation and analysis of silver Nanoparticles (Ag Nps) by plant extract techniques of green tea and study optical and structural properties

Aqueous root extract has been used to examine the green production of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) by reducing the Ag+ ions in a silver nitrate solution. UV-Vis spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction, field emission scanning electron microscopy, and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) were used to analyze the produced AgNPs. The AgNPs that were created had a maximum absorbance at 416 nm, were spherical in form, polydispersed in nature, and were 685 nm in size.The AgNPs demonstrated antibacterial efficacy against Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus. The dengue vector Aedes aegypti's second instar larvae were very susceptible to the AgNPs' powerful larvicidal action.

Role of the federal supreme court in Iraq in strengthening the principle of separation of powers

The constitutional judiciary has played an important role in promoting the separation of authorities in modern regimes. Their constitutions stipulated that there should be a separation of authorities so that each authority can exercise its functions in a manner that does not contradict the work of other authorities. Constitutional justice through the decisions issued by the constitutional judiciary through which the limits of its work is established and the introduction of the principle of separation of authorities from the elements of the legal state and also leads to the protection of the rights of individuals from any abuse may be issued by any authority.

And at the same time contributes to the process of the transfer of autho

The Reality of Evaluating Teacher Performance in the Sultanate of Oman in Light of Global Models

The aim of the research is to reveal the reality of teacher performance evaluation in the Sultanate of Oman in light of some global models. The study followed a qualitative descriptive research design. Seven forms of teacher formative and summative assessments were analyzed. Besides, an analytical template was developed, consisting of six areas related to the teaching performance of teachers. These included: lesson planning and preparation, learning environment, education, professional development, student academic, and community and parental partnership. The study reached a number of results; the most notable is the lack of change of forms for more than a decade despite the rapid development of the educational system in the sultanate in

The role of IL-6 in the etology of tinea versicolor in group of Iraqi patients.

Background Tinea versicolor is a common dermatological problem worldwide in distribution, caused by dimorphic fungus called Malassezia furfur, they exist at the very interface between
commensal and pathogen and, as such, their interaction with the human immune system is of great interest. Immuno-inflamatory activity mediated by different cytokines could have a role in the etiology of tinea versicolor.
Patients and Method: The study covered 46 subjects .It comprised 26 patients with TV compared with 20 healthy normal controls. Serum IL-6 analysis was done by ELISA.
Results: The level of IL-6 was elevated in patients with tinea versicolor, when compared with healthy control
Conclusion: IL-6 increases du
