The outcome of Pleurodesis in Malignant Pleural Effusion : No subtitle

Background: Accumulation of fluid in pleural space, which is malignant in nature, is secondary to lung, breast or ovarian tumors. Metastatic Adeno Ca is most commonly seen in male and breast Ca is most commonly seen in female. It indicates advanced disease and reduced survival.

Aim: Is to study prospectively thirty patients with malignant pleural effusion according to their clinical presentation, ways of diagnosis, and methods of chemical pleurodesis.

Patient and methods: Data of thirty patients with malignant pleural effusion collected and analyzed using a form to categorize them according to their age, gender, presenting features, imaging studies and procedure performed to drain the fluid and to arrange chemical pleurodesis.

Results: Eighteen patients were male; twelve patients were female in a ratio of 1.5:1. The youngest was 52 years old while the oldest was 81 years old. The mean age was 65.8 ±7.34. The most frequent presenting features were cough and dyspnea. Imaging studies showed that eleven patients had left sided effusion with underlying mass. Eight patients had right sided effusion with underlying mass while the remaining eleven patients had only effusion. Twenty patients received (Talc) and ten patients received (Bleomycin) with comparable recurrence rate of the  effusion, in seven patients out of 20 in Talc (35%) and in three out of 10 patients received Bleomycin (30%).

Conclusion: Malignant pleural effusion should be drained nearly complete evacuation; regardless the primary cause, prior to installation of agent for pleurodesis and both (Talc & Bleomycin) can be used with comparable results and recurrence

The effect of mineral levels in the mother’s circulation on the outcome of pregnancy

Background: Dietary intakes are critical during pregnancy, because inadequate amounts of key nutrients may compromise fetal development or maternal health. In addition to that maternal diet could be one of the methods to select the gender of the baby. The aim of the study is to correlate the level of the minerals in the mother’s blood with the gender and wellbeing of the baby after delivery.
Patients and Methods: Fifty women were involved in this study with a mean age (23.92 ± 4.75), collected from the labor room during labor in the period between December 2013 and May 2014, in Baghdad teaching hospital. After taking a full history from the women, 10 ml of blood was withdrawn from them, 2ml in EDTA tubes for lead estimation and 8 m

Breast tumors in females: A Review Of 500 Malignant Cases.

Background:Breast carcinoma is the most common malignant tumor and the leading cause of carcinoma death in women, with more than 1,000,000 cases occurring worldwide annually.(1) as a matter of fact , the mortality rate for breast carcinoma changed very little from the 1930s to the early 1990s, because of the combined action of earlier diagnosis and improved therapy .<br />Materials and methods: The prospective study included 500 cases of breast carcinoma who went total mastectomy , between October 2006- April 2007, where taken from private pathology laboratory , sections(4microns) are taken and stained with H&E stain and over-reviewed.<br />Results: Clinicopathological analysis of the 500 cases of breast carcinoma, includ

CD34 and Wnt3 expression in potentially malignant oral disorders

Background: Potentially malignant oral disorders (PMODs) are common precursors of oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC). Neoangiogenesis and signalling are important intermediate biomarkers that may govern the progression of dysplastic mucosa into carcinoma. Aims: Evaluate the importance of CD34 and Wnt3 expression in PMODs and OSCCs in relation to their clinicopathological parameters. Settings and Design: Prospective cross-sectional study. Materials and Methods: Immunohistochemical staining for CD34 and Wnt3 was performed for 41 samples. These included 27 PMODs, six OSCCs and eight normal gingival and alveolar mucosa. Analysis of variance (ANOVA) and post-hoc tests were applied. P<0.05 was considered statistically significant. Results: CD34

Outcome for the group SL(2,57)

The set of all (n×n) non-singular matrices over the field F this set forms a group under the operation of matrix multiplication. This group is called the general linear group of dimension  over the field F, denoted by . The determinant of these matrices is a homomorphism from  into F* and the kernel of this homomorphism was the special linear group and denoted by  Thus  is the subgroup of  which contains all matrices of determinant one.

The rational valued characters of the rational representations written as a linear combination of the induced characters for the groups  discuss in this paper and find the Artin indicator for this group after study the rational valued characters of the rational representations and the induce

The Influence of No-Core Fiber Length on the Sensitivity in Fiber Optic Strain Sensor

The influence of sensing element length of no-core fiber strain sensor has been studied and experimentally demonstrated, four different lengths of 125 μm diameter no-core fiber is fused between two standard single-mode fibers and bi-directionally strained, the highest obtained sensitivity was around 16.37 pm με -1 which was exhibited in the shortest no-core fiber segment, to the best of our knowledge this is the first study of the influence of no-core fiber strain sensors length on sensor sensitivity. The proposed sensor can be used in many opto-mechanical applications such as, structural health monitoring, aerospace vehicles and airplane components monitoring.

Judicial Decisions in Federal Decree-Law No. 15 of 2021

Judges perform many acts in the exercise of their function and issue many judicial rulings, judicial decisions, in addition to judicial orders; Accordingly, judicial decisions differ from judicial decisions, and both differ from judicial orders. Although judicial rulings and judicial orders are clear and their nature can be accurately identified, defining judicial decisions, especially those added by the legislator in the UAE under Federal Decree Law No. 15 of 2021, is not that easy. In the aforementioned decree-law, the Emirati legislator added the word (Decision) with each word (Ruling) in most of the legal texts subject to amendment under this decree.

Judicial decisions issued by judges during the exercise of their functions a
