Silver Stained Nucleolar Organizing regions [AgNOR] in Metastatic Carcinoma to peritoneal cavity
...Show More Authors

Background : AgNOR parameters are well known to pathologists as a proliferation marker with advantage over other proliferation markers of being cheaper, simpler and able to assess
proliferation speed as well as state , AgNOR stainability was found to be well preserved in smears kept for up to 2 years , studies have shown that AgNOR values can serve as a useful
prognostic parameter and a marker for tumour progression in different carcinomas (1) This study was conducted to see the importance of AgNOR staining in the peritoneal fluid
cytopathological examination
Patient and Methods: It was a descriptive and prospective study conducted in Department of cytopathology in the medical city and Department of pathology n the medical college of
Baghdad University, from September 2003 to June 2007. AgNOR staining was performed on 50 peritoneal fluid specimens having malignant cells and 20 other peritoneal fluid specimens
as control cases
Results: AgNOR count, size and dispersion were normal in benign mesothelial cells (the proportion of cells with 1 or 2 AgNOR dots ranged from 32% to 98% with a median of 82%
and a mean of 80.7%, S.D. 15.4 the proportion of cells with clusters ranged from 0% to12% with a median of 0% and a mean of 1.3%, S.D. 2.5 ) , higher in the malignant cells(the
proportion of cells with 1 or 2 AgNOR dots ranged from 15% to 75% with a median of 30.5% and a mean of 28.9%, S.D. 21.1, the proportion of cells with clusters ranged from 23% to88%
with a median of 67.6% and a mean of 56.2%, S.D. 36.7 ). AgNOR counts in the malignant cells were significantly greater as compared with counts of normal mesothelial cells .
Conclusion: Typing of AgNOR count, size and dispersion was found to be an important marker in differentiation between normal mesothelial cells and malignant cells of metastatic
adenocarcinoma

Using the Lid-Driven Cavity Flow to Validate Moment-Based Boundary Conditions for the Lattice Boltzmann Equation
...Show More Authors
Abstract<p>The accuracy of the Moment Method for imposing no-slip boundary conditions in the lattice Boltzmann algorithm is investigated numerically using lid-driven cavity flow. Boundary conditions are imposed directly upon the hydrodynamic moments of the lattice Boltzmann equations, rather than the distribution functions, to ensure the constraints are satisfied precisely at grid points. Both single and multiple relaxation time models are applied. The results are in excellent agreement with data obtained from state-of-the-art numerical methods and are shown to converge with second order accuracy in grid spacing.</p>

Scavenging of Free Radicals Generated in Biological Tissues Exposed to Ionizing Radiation Using Silver Nanoparticles
...Show More Authors

Humans are exposed to nuclear radiations every day, and these radiations are both natural and artificial. When the body tissues are exposed to nuclear radiation, free radicals are formed, which are responsible for cancer development. In this research, silver nanoparticles were synthesized by electrical explosion wire method. Nanoparticles were added to deionized water that contained free radicals before and after exposure to gamma rays. The obtained results indicate that the silver nanoparticles have antioxidant potential through possessing free radical scavenging activity, as they can donate electron to free radicals and become neutralize. Then, these nanoparticles were injected to mice before and after their irradiation with gamma ray.

Microvessel density in Renal Cell Carcinoma
...Show More Authors

Background: Prognostic histological evaluation of many cancers have recently concentrated on angiogenesis.
Materials &Methods: A total of twenty formaline-fixed, paraffin embedded blocks of renal cell carcinoma were included in this study. Sections were subjected for immunohistochemical staining of CD34. The median of the MVD of all cases of RCC were obtained to divide the cases into high- and low-MVD score groups and were correlated with the tumor stage and grade.
Results: there was a significant correlation of the high MVD score with tumor stage (P=0.02).
Conclusion: MVD may be considered as a potential prognostic marker for RCC.

Indications and complications of peritoneal dialysis in children with acute renal failure, a single center experience
...Show More Authors

Background: Peritoneal dialysis (PD) is the preferred and convenient treatment modality for acute renal failure (ARF) in children and hemodynamically unstable patients, because of its inherent advantages: technique can be initiated simply and quickly, no highly trained personnel nor expensive and complex apparatus are required and systemic anticoagulation is not needed.
Objectives: is to highlight the role of peritoneal dialysis in management of children with acute renal failure and to determined its complications.
Patients and methods: A retrospective study was carried out from 20th April 2012 till1st May 2014 ,on children with acute renal failure admitted to nephrology unit in Child Welfare Teaching Hospi

Cavity preparation model in rat maxillary first molars: A pilot study
...Show More Authors

Objective: To conduct a standardized method for cavity preparation on the palatal surface of rat maxillary molars and to introduce a standardized method for tooth correct alignment within the specimen during the wax embedding procedure to better detect cavity position within the examined slides. Materials and methods: Six male Wistar rats, aged 4-6 weeks, were used. The maxillary molars of three animals were sectioned in the frontal plane to identify the thickness of hard tissue on the palatal surface of the first molar which was (250-300µm). The end-cutting bur (with a cutting head diameter of 0.2mm) was suitable for preparing a dentinal cavity (70-80µm) depth. Cavity preparation was then performed using the same bur on the tooth surf

Variation of Residual Chlorine Concentration in Some Regions of Al_Rassafa
...Show More Authors

This study was done to examine the concentration of residual chlorine from different regions at AL Risafa side. The samples were collected from Baghdad AL- Jadida, Shareaa Phlistain, AL- Shaab and AL- Habibea, Al-Karrada, Al-Jadria, Al-Adamia at April-August/2013 .The Electrical Conductivity (Ec) and total dissolve solid (TDS), hang about its normal rate according to (WHO) but the Turbidity go beyond it’s limit to reach (11NTU) where the highest peak was recorded in Baghdad AL Jadida. The results show that chlorine concentration were decreased in the August compared with April because of high Temperature, and long in sun shine duration. It is found that there is inverse proportionality between residual chlorine and temperature. Same tr
