Background: Osteoarthritis can be described as the last common pathway of processes that leads to joint failure. This illness also has a significant social and economic impact on all civilizations, and has become a growing burden on health-care systems in usually healthy economies with an aging population.

Methods: A case-control study design conducted from the 1^st, November 2020 to the 31^st, May 2021 in Ibn-Sena and Al-Salam Teaching Hospitals in Mosul, Iraq. A total of 100 individuals diagnosed with knee Osteoarthritis represented the cases of this study, and another 100 individuals free from knee Osteoarthritis were recruited as controls.

Objectives: the aim of current study was to measure the frequency of cases related to each assumed risk factor of knee Osteoarthritis among the study sample and to assess the causes of knee Osteoarthritis.

Results: The majority of cases and controls (72 % and 53 %, respectively) were between 45 and 64 years. Also, females represented 76% of cases and 57% of controls. It was found that 74% of cases and 81% of controls lived in city. Married people made up 93% of cases and 79% of controls. The manual workers made up 82% of cases and 27% of controls. Also, there was no link between smoking, systemic illnesses and knee osteoarthritis. Females over 45 years accounted for 65% of cases and 31% of controls. Overweight and obese people were twice as likely as the control group to develop knee Osteoarthritis. Trauma in the past had strong link with the development of knee Osteoarthritis. Also, only over half of the patients (51) had a positive family history of Osteoarthritis, whereas only 17% of the controls had a positive family history of Osteoarthritis.

Conclusion: Osteoarthritis occurs more frequently among old married females. Overweight and obesity found to be a risk factor for Osteoarthritis. Also, manual labor increases the chances of developing Osteoarthritis. Athletes are also less likely to develop Osteoarthritis. Trauma and Family history of Osteoarthritis Increase the risk of Osteoarthritis.

Two well-known fluorescent molecules: fluorescein sodium salt (FSS) and 2,7-dichloro fluorescein (DCF) were tried to prove the efficiency, trustability and repeatability of ISNAG fluorimeter by using discrete and continuous flow injection analysis modes.A linear range of 0.002-1 mmol/L for FSS and 0.003-0.7 mmol/L was for DCF, with LOD 0.0018 mmol/L and 0.002 mmol/L for FSS and DCF respectively, were obtained for discrete mode of analysis. While the continuous mode gave a linear range of 0.002-0.7 mmol/L and 0.003-0.5 mmol/L for FSS and DCF respectively, the LOD were 0.0016mmol/L and 0.0018 mmol/L for FSS and DCF respectively. The results were compared with classical method at variable λ_ex for both fluorescent molecules at 95

The effect of thickness variation on some physical properties of hematite α-Fe2O3 thin films was investigated. An Fe2O3 bulk in the form of pellet was prepared by cold pressing of Fe2O3 powder with subsequent sintering at 800 . Thin films with various thicknesses were obtained on glass substrates by pulsed laser deposition technique. The films properties were characterized by XRD, and FT-IR. The deposited iron oxide thin films showed a single hematite phase with polycrystalline rhombohedral crystal structure .The thickness of films were estimated by using spectrometer to be (185-232) nm. Using Debye Scherrerś formula, the average grain size for the samples was found to be (18-32) nm. Atomic force microscopy indicated that the films had

Novel dichloro (bis {2-[1-(4-methylphenyl)-1H-1, 2, 3-triazol-4-yl-κN3] pyridine-κN}) metal (II) coordination compounds of seven transition metals (Mn, Fe, Co, Ni, Cu, Zn and Cd)

[3]. The existence of relatively basic nitrogen atoms in the 1

made the CuAAC “click” reaction an attractive method to prepare differently substituted 1

3-triazoles. These compounds have been used as ligands to coordinate to various metal ions that display a range of applications such as in electrochemical and photochemical studies

metal-ion sensing and catalysis [4]. The reasons for the success of the “click” reaction

is that it is easy to carry out and is widely applicable. It is not affected by a variety of functional groups

and can be carried out with a variety of Cu(I) catalysts and solvents

including aqueous conditions. The Cu(I) catalysts overcome the high activation energy barrier of the non-catalyzed Huisgen reaction by changing the mechanism of the reaction. A large variety of copper catalysts can be used for the CuAAC reaction

on condition that the maximum concentration of Cu(I) species is generated during the reaction. The pre-catalyst can be a Cu(II) salt (usually CuSO4) together with a reducing agent (often sodium ascorbate) or a Cu(I) compound in the presence of a base or amine ligand and a reducing agent to prevent oxidation to Cu(II). Some strong oxidising cupric salts or complexes such as Cu(OAc)2 also work. The solvent is very flexible from organic to aqueous

with the most commonly used combination water + an alcohol (t-BuOH

MeOH or EtOH). The key role of the solvent or solvent mixture is to solubilize the substrates and Cu(I) catalyst in order to ensure rapid reactions. Such aqueous conditions are very useful for biochemical conjugations

as well as for organic syntheses. We recently reported on the synthesis of a series of differently substituted 1

Eight different Dichloro(bis{2-[1-(4-R-phenyl)-1H-1,2,3-triazol-4-yl-κN3]pyridine-κN})iron(II) compounds, 2–9, have been synthesised and characterised, where group R=CH3 (L2), OCH3 (L3), COOH (L4), F (L5), Cl (L6), CN (L7), H (L8) and CF3 (L9). The single crystal X-ray structure was determined for the L3 which was complemented with Density Functional Theory calculations for all complexes. The structure exhibits a distorted octahedral geometry, with the two triazole ligands coordinated to the iron centre positioned in the equatorial plane and the two chloro atoms in the axial positions. The values of the FeII/III redox couple, observed at ca. −0.3 V versus Fc/ Fc+ for complexes 2–9, varied over a very small potential range of 0.05 V.
