Detection the level of YKL-40 biochemical marker and vitamin D level in sera of Iraqi Uterine cancer females' patients
...Show More Authors

Objective: Detection the level of YKL-40 biochemical marker and vitamin D level in sera of Iraqi uterine cancer
females' patients.
Methodology: This study included 90 female volunteers, 30 of them were healthy volunteers who were
considered as a control group, while sixty serum samples were collected from women patients suffering from
uterine tumors (30 malignant and 30 fibroid benign tumors), benign cases were considered as a disease
control group for malignant tumors. The average age of those females was 30-75 years, which matched the
control group. All the samples were collected from Azady hospital in Kirkuk and the gynecologic department at
Medical City in Baghdad during October /2012 to May /2013. All the serum samples were undergone
biochemical estimation for the levels of YKL-40, and 25 (OH) vitamin D using ELISA technique, and BMI data
were collected.
Results: Estimation of YKL-40 levels showed that there were 28 No. (93.33%) of EC patients had high level of
YKL-40, while 26 no. (86.67%) of fibroid (benign tumor) patients had low level, and 15(50.00 %) of healthy
control had low. There was a significant difference found in YKL-40 level in EC patients when compared with
the fibroid (benign tumor) patients and healthy control (Pvalue= 0.0001), (Pvalue= 0.0001) respectively. The
highest percent of women with EC and the women with fibroid (benign tumor) had deficiency of 25 (OH)
vitamin D levels (66.67%). While the highest percent of healthy control had sufficiency of 25(OH) vitamin D
level (56.67%). statistically there was significant difference among study groups (p=0.0001). Were as no
significant difference between EC patients and fibroid (benign tumor) patients (P-value =0.822).
Recommendations: Comparing between the ykl-40 marker and other tumor marker diagnostic levels in the
detection of uterine tumors. For further studies, we recommended study the diagnostic levels of ykl-40
marker and its correlation with other body tumors. It is recommended to do estimation of vitamin D levels
with more advanced method and correlation of its with disease.

Cancer Patients’ Experiences and Understanding of Venous Thromboembolism
...Show More Authors

Background: Venous thromboembolism (VTE), comprising deep vein thrombosis (DVT) and pulmonary embolism (PE), presents an extra challenge in the management of patients with cancer, given the increase in morbidity and mortality in having both conditions. Cancer patients are well known to have a high risk of VTE; particularly; those who have had major surgery, chemotherapy and/or hormonal therapy. These groups of patients need to understand the risk factors and the prophylactic measures to prevent developing VTE. This review aims to provide an overview of the literature on cancer patients’ understanding of VTE and their experiences of cancer-associated thrombosis (CAT).

Method: A scoping review wa

Assessment of the Salivary level of Sphingosine kinases-1 in periodontitis and its correlation with periodontal parameters
...Show More Authors

One of the key molecules in the conversion of sphingosine to sphingosine-1- phosphate is SPHK-1, also known as Sphingosine Kinase 1 (SPHK-1). Sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P) is a lipid that acts as a signaling molecule and plays an essential role in inflammatory and immunomodulatory responses. S1P has recently been identified as a mediator and a biomarker in inflammatory bone diseases such as osteoporosis and inflammatory osteolysis based on the biological effects of S1P in osteoclastic and osteoblastic cells and immune cells. According to recent research, S1P may play a role in the pathogenesis of periodontitis, an inflammatory bone-destructive condition. This study assesses the salivary level SPHK-1 in periodontitis and its correlat

CORRELATION OF TMPRSS2-ERG GENE FUSION STATUS WITH CLINICOPATHOLOGICAL CHARACTERISTICS IN PROSTATE CANCER OF IRAQI PATIENTS
...Show More Authors

The aim of this study was to establish the existence and interaction of TMPRSS2 – ERG gene fusion status with clinicopathological features of prostate cancer patients. This research consisted of 123 embedded formalin-fixed tissues obtained from the prostate tumor patients. The above gene fusion is detected through the technique of fluorescent in situ hybridization (FISH) by means of a triple color probe. Seven samples have not been scored due to technical difficulties and 46 patients have fusion (39.6%), while the remaining (70) have not been seen with fusion. Of the 46 fusion-positive, 17 (36%) were caused by ERG-translocation, of the other 29 (63%) were caused by the interstitial segment deletion between the two genes due to the

Implementation and performance evaluation of multi level pseudo random sequence generator
...Show More Authors

In this paper, introduce a proposed multi-level pseudo-random sequence generator (MLPN). Characterized by its flexibility in changing generated pseudo noise (PN) sequence according to a key between transmitter and receiver. Also, introduce derive of the mathematical model for the MLPN generator. This method is called multi-level because it uses more than PN sequence arranged as levels to generation the pseudo-random sequence. This work introduces a graphical method describe the data processing through MLPN generation. This MLPN sequence can be changed according to changing the key between transmitter and receiver. The MLPN provides different pseudo-random sequence lengths. This work provides the ability to implement MLPN practically
