Prevalence of autoimmune hemolytic anemia in ulcerative colitis
...Show More Authors

Background: Ulcerative colitis is a chronic idiopathic inflammatory disorder that affects the rectum & extends proximally to affect variable extent of the colon. Autoimmune hemolytic
anemia had reported in few cases.
Objective: to determine the prevalence of autoimmune hemolytic anemia in Ulcerative colitis.
Patient & Methods: Fifty Iraqi patients having Ulcerative colitis attending the GIT Center in Baghdad during the period from March to August 2004 were interviewed, examined and
diagnosed according to pathological study done for colonic biopsies by the same centre. Blood was drown for the assessment of complete picture with blood film, reticulocyte
percent, erythrocyte sedimentation rate, Coombs test (direct, indirect), antinuclear antibody, immunoglobulin assay, serum iron and TIBC in the same laboratory unit.
Results: In our study, 18(36%) patients were anemic, fifteen of them had normal or low reticulocyte percent with normochromic normocytic RBC in blood film, probable causes of
anemia was either iron deficiency proved by low serum iron and high total iron binding capacity (TIBC), or anemia of chronic illness. The remaining three of eighteen patients with
reticulocytosis, two of them Coombs test were negative and normal film, but they were having acute bloody diarrhea which probably was the cause of reticulocytosis.
The third patient was Coombs positive with features of hemolytic anemia in the blood film (polychromic with spherocytosis), this patient had also a high titer of IGg, LDH, so that this
female had all the evidence of autoimmune hemolytic anemia which is a rare complication of Ulcerative colitis. Salfasalazine as a treatment of Ulcerative colitis can cause autoimmune haemolysis, but in this case the drug had stopped for one month before the development of autoimmune haemolysis. In our sample we had five patients with reticuloytosis but normal haemoglobin level and normal blood film with cooms negative (direct and indirect) those five patients might had nonimmune causes of hemolytic like G6PD deficiency which need further investigations, or might had bloody diarrhea which cause elevated reticulocyte as areaction to blood loss, or it may be due to salazopyrine effect which may lead to increase level of reticulocyte.
Conclusion:Most studies giving range of autoimmune haemolytic anaemia with Ulcerative colitis between 1%-2%, all these studies showed direct coomb's test positive, and our study
showed 2% incidence. So it is one of the rare manifestations of Ulcerative colitis. It does not depend much on severity, duration and degree of colonic involvement.

A trade union movement in Britain

Labor movement is considered important in Britain because it is an international phenomenon of the feudal system and one of the flowerings of the era of the capitalist machine. At the beginning of the 18th century, the world witnessed a change and progress in many aspects of the industrial fields such as the different means of production .this era is called the industrial revolution which especially appeared in Britain and extended to other areas of the world .it leads to many changes in Europe and participated in different economic, political and cultural and social fields. and it has a very important role in progress and development but its disadvantage is that it is exploited by the capitalists to achieve their special rights .in othe

Free Boundary Determination in Nonlinear Diffusion
...Show More Authors
Abstract<p>Free boundary problems with nonlinear diffusion occur in various applications, such as solidification over a mould with dissimilar nonlinear thermal properties and saturated or unsaturated absorption in the soil beneath a pond. In this article, we consider a novel inverse problem where a free boundary is determined from the mass/energy specification in a well-posed one-dimensional nonlinear diffusion problem, and a stability estimate is established. The problem is recast as a nonlinear least-squares minimisation problem, which is solved numerically using the <italic>lsqnonlin</italic> routine from the MATLAB toolbox. Accurate and stable numerical solutions are achieved. For noisy data, inst</p> ... Show More

Heavy Metals Causing Toxicity in Fishes

Abstract<p>The heavy metals mainly include Pb, Hg, Cd, Cr, Cu, Zn, Mn, Ni, Ag, etc. The heavy metals,Pb,Cu,Zn are considered most toxic to humans, fishes and environment. highly concentrations of heavy metals are harmful They destabilize ecosystems because of their bioaccumulation in organisms, and toxic effects on biota and even death in most living beings. All heavy metals, in spite some of them are essential micronutrients, have their toxic effects on living organisms via metabolic interference and mutagenesis. The bioaccumulation of toxic metals can happen in the body and food chain. So, the toxic metals generally exhibit chronic toxicity. The heavy metals like Pb has significant toxic effec</p> ...

The Transitions in Contemporary Urban Space
...Show More Authors

It is the dynamic tension between the relatively fixed built environment and the constantly changing in social life that determines the nature of urban spaces belonging to different historical periods, and considered as a tool for diagnosing transformations in urban spaces, that’s why, the characteristics of urban space became unclear between positive spaces and negative spaces, so emerged the need to study contemporary urban space belonging to the current period of time and show the most important transformations that have occurred in contemporary urban space to reach urban spaces that meet the current  life requirements. Therefore, the research dealt with a study of the characteristics of contemporary urban space and the most pr

Orphan care In the Islamic perspective
...Show More Authors

I was invited to deliver a research paper on orphan care at the Center for Psychological and Educational Research. So I sought help from God Almighty and began writing a research in which I explained the meaning of the orphan, his condition, and the Holy Qur’an’s care for him. Therefore, I intended for the title of my humble research to be (Caring for the Orphan in the Islamic Perspective), since the papers were mixed up in the time of accidents, disasters, and deadly weapons, all of which reap men more than what we suffer. In this wounded country of ours, with civil wars, sectarianism, and insecurity, research began to solve the problem of orphans at a time when society had become an orphan with no shepherd. When I addressed this to

Background: Total serum sialic acid (TSA) and lipid associated sialic acid (LSA) have not been measured yet in depressive disorders.
Aim :The present study was undertaken to show if there is any change in the concentration of different forms of sialic acids in patients with depressive disorder.
Methods: TSA and LSA levels have been estimated in serum of 72 patients with depression, in addition to 50 healthy controls .
Results reflect a significant increase (p<0.05) in the TSA and BSA in the depressed patients as compared with healthy controls.
Conclusions: It could be concluded that TSA and BSA could reflect an immune like response to depression associated with increase in the sialylation of differ

Metaphorical correlation in the contemporary sculpture

The present research is concerned with the way in which different dialects interact with each other in contemporary sculpture through the use of the metaphor for various shapes, meanings and materials and placing them in contexts that conflict with the familiar. These attempts come in harmony with the spirit of the times in seeking exoticism, surprise and splendor as a means of renewal. modern Art . Therefore, the research was divided into four axes, the first of which included the research problem, its importance and its aim, which is to attempt to uncover the metaphorical metaphorical relational mechanism in modern sculpture. The second axis included the theoretical framework. The third axis included the research procedures of determin
