Background: Cervical erosion (CE) is a common finding on routine pelvic examination during the fertile years. Published articles on CE in Iraq are scarce; therefore this study was carried out.
Methods: A total of 100 non pregnant women had CE attending a private clinic in Al-Sader city, Baghdad, was included in this study. Pelvic examination was done; demographic data and gynaecological history were obtained.
Results: The age of women was 27.1 ± 5.9 years with 7.3 ±2.9 educational years. Mucopurlent vaginal discharge was a complaint in 49% of women, and a watery vaginal discharge was a complaint in a similar percent. Thirty four of women were oral contraceptive users and 11% were using intrauterine contraceptive device. Women had equal or more than 4 children constituted 90%.
Conclusion: women with CE were at fertile age, had an early marriage and a high party and with a low educational status. The symptoms were vaginal discharge (mucopurlent or watery) and backache. Women with CE were either current or recent oral contraceptives users or using IUCD

Background: Ameloblastoma is the most common clinically significant odontogenic tumor, known for its locally invasive potential and frequent recurrences unless treated radically. Endocan is a soluble proteoglycan which is reported to have prognostic implications in multiple human diseases and tumors. This study aims to describe the expression of endocan in ameloblastoma. Materials and methods: With immunoperoxidase method; tissue sections of formalin fixed- paraffin embedded blocks for ameloblastomas were stained with monoclonal antibodies to endocan, the localization of the endocan expression was examined and the resulting scores of the tissue sections were analyzed according to age, sex, site and tumor subtype. Results: endocan was found

Smoking is one of the biggest pests in societies and is one of the main threats to human health as the problem goes beyond the smoker and the non smoker around it and is transmitted through the air and produces what is known as passive smoking.
Scientific studies and medical research confirm that at least 90% of patients with oral, pharyngeal, laryngeal, and other cancers are among smokers. It is known that the risk of these cancers among smokers increases as the amount of smoking increases. That the incidence of these malignant tumors among smokers rises between 6 to 10 times the incidence in non-smokers, Recent scientific research has proved beyond doubt that tobacco contains precursors, active carcinogens, activated cancer cel

The favorable medium for callus formation was Murashige and skoog (MS, 1962)supplemented with Banzylaminopurine ( BAP) plus Naphalene acetic acid (NAA) in106M each . Whereas, the best medium for differentiation was MS ,1962 supplemented with BAP 10-7M and NAA10-7M . The formed shoots were transferred to media without Auxin (control) or with different (NAA) concentrations (10-6and 10-7M) . The best rooted shoots were on control, transferred successfully to jeffy 7 discs and to the green house after 3 weeks.

... Show MoreWe used to think of grammar as the bones of the language and vocabulary as the flesh to be added given that language consisted largely of life generated chunks of lexis. This “skeleton image” has been proverbially used to refer to that central feature of lexis named collocation- an idea that for the first 15 years of language study and analysis gave a moment‟s thought to English classroom material and methodology.
The work of John Sinclair, Dave Willis, Ron Carter, Michael McCarthy, Michael Lewis, and many others have all contributed to the way teachers today approach the area of lexis and what it means in the teaching/learning process of the language. This also seems to have incorporated lexical ideas into the teaching mechanis
