Background: Hirsutism is a common clinical problem which causes a great distress to the patient, which true incidence is unknown . However it is more common among Mediterranian women who are usually more accepting of their condition .
Aim of study : To determine the prevalence of hirsutism among adult females attendins the gynaecology out patient clinic at tikrit teaching hospital.
Patients & Methods: A sample of 175 adult non pregnant women (married & un married) with age range (18-25) years was included in this study .All attending the Gynaecology out patient clinic in Tiktrit teaching Hospital from Jan-Oct. 1999 .A full medical history was obtained. then patient were examined for pattern and severity of hair gowth . Grading was done usin , ferryman and Gallway scoring system .
Results : the prevalence of hirsutism was (35.4%) , when sevesity of hirsutism was assessed majority of patients (77.5%) had grade I hirsutism . yirilizing symptoms and signs were found in (69.3%) . the family history for the same condition in the family was positive in (24.1%) of hirsute women (67.8%) of hirsute women showed one or more of sonographic features ofpolycystic ovarian syndrome. The Body was found to differ in hirsute women compared to normal
The present study is carried out to identify the algae in the groundwater of the three areas of Tikrit city, including (the center of Tikrit , the region of AL-Jazira , Awainat village) by nine wells, a depths ranged between 9 meter at well 8 and 110 meter at wells 3 and 5 . And examined the environmental characteristics of physical, chemical and biological factors during the study period from September 2009 to June 2010. It is obtained that wells in the study area is lower alkalinity, average it ranged (6.448-7.418). It was noted that the values of the dissolved oxygen are few and almost non-existent in some cases it ranged between (6.5-6.3)mg/l , analysis of biological oxygen demand refers to wells water (clean- very clean) average

The aqueous extract of Anastatica hierochuntica was investigated for its effects on hormones in mice females. the aqueous extract of plant at a dose level of 100mg/1mL showed significant increase (p<0.05) on levels of hormones LH, FSH, PRL level and PRO level. Clomid treated group showd significant increase in LH, FSH, and PRL while there was non-significant increase in PRO. From the above results, it is concluded for the first time that aqueous Anastatica hierchuntica extract offers significant effect of LH, FSH, PRL, and PRO in this mice females scompared with control.

A total of 100 blood samples taken from patients with suspected typhoid fever aged between (1-60) years, were involved in this study. Blood samples were cultured directly on brain heart infusion broth. After that sub cultured of isolates on MacConkey agar and XLD agar and S.S agar to find the Salmonella typhi then identified by the biochemical and antibiotic sensitivity test. Resistant genes were identified by using aacc2 gene and cat gene. Results showed that there was 7 Salmonella typhi isolates from blood culture, as well as, aacc2 gene success in amplification of 450bp fragment for amino glycoside resistant, while not improve amplification
