Prevalence of immunological marker (Anti-GAD) in patients with type 1 diabetes : hospital based study
...Show More Authors

Background: type 1diabetes (T1DM) is a form of diabetes mellitus that results from  autoimmune  destruction of insulin-producing beta cells of the pancreas, leading to permanent insulin deficiency ,categorized as either being positive or negative for various auto antibodies related to pancreatic function .An anti glutamic acid decarboxylase autoantibody(Anti-GAD) is recognized as one of the major serological markers for type 1 diabetes mellitus.

Objectives: to determine the prevalence of the immunological marker  (Anti-GAD) among a sample of type1diabetus mellitus patients and to identify some factors that might be associated with its seroposivity.

Method: A cross-sectional retrospective study was carried out during February to May, 2011 in specialized diabetic clinic of Children Welfare Teaching Hospital, Baghdad .The study sample included 120 type1diabetus patients for whom(Anti-GAD) had been determined,  patients reports were studied and analyzed statistically.

Results: The demographic characteristics of this studied sample with higher percentage 57.5% of females, 46.7%in the age group 10-14 years, 12.5% had family history of other autoimmune diseases and the majority 69.2% had healthy Body Mass Index (BMI).while the clinical characteristics revealed higher percentage 47% with onset of the disease (5-9) years, 64.2% having a duration of disease   (1-4)years ,86.7% presented with classical type of presentation and 52.5% had good control of diabetes . The prevalence of Anti-GAD in this studied sample was 66.7%. Seropositivity of Anti-GAD was significantly associated with delayed age of patients at diagnosis with mean age (7.5± 3.25) years, short duration of the diseases with mean (3.85±2.57) years, female gender (65%) compared to (35%) of male gender had positive Anti-GAD test, while seropositivity of Anti-GAD was not related to other study variables (age of patients, control of diabetes mellitus, BMI, and family history of other autoimmune disease).

Conclusions: High prevalence of Anti-GAD and its titer in this studied sample, seropositivity was related mainly to female gender, delayed age at diagnosis and short duration of diabetes.

New Approach of Generating Ground-Truth for Local Surveillance Dataset Tested with Benchmark Background Subtraction Models
...Show More Authors

     Background subtraction is the dominant approach in the domain of moving object detection. Lots of research has been done to design or improve background subtraction models. However, there are a few well-known and state-of-the-art models that can be applied as a benchmark. Generally, these models are applied to different dataset benchmarks. Most of the time, choosing an appropriate dataset is challenging due to the lack of dataset availability and the tedious process of creating ground-truth frames for the sake of quantitative evaluation. Therefore, in this article, we collected local video scenes of a street and river taken by a stationary camera, focusing on dynamic background challenges. We presented a new technique for creati

Effect of Magnetichydrodynamic on unsteady flow and heat transfer upon stretching sheet with non – uniform heat
...Show More Authors

In this paper we study the effect of magnetichydrodynamic upon the boundary
layer flow and heat transfer on a permeable unsteady stretching sheet with non –
uniform heat source / sink. It found that the momentum and energy equations are
controlled by many different dimensionless parameters such as prandtle number
pr , unsteadiness parameter A , constant pressure So , coefficient of the space
dependent  A , the temperature dependent  B , and the MHD parameter M . The
analytic solutions are obtained by using suitable similarity transformations and
homotopy analysis method (HAM).
Furthermore, we analysis the effects of all dimensionless number, there are
mentioned above, upon the velocity distribution and

Extraction and Partial Purification of Lipopolysaccharide from Clinical Proteus mirabilis Isolate and Compared with Standard Bacteria
...Show More Authors

Ninety five samples were collected from different samples (urine, ear and wounds swaps), from hospitals in Baghdad city. The results of cultural, microscopic , biochemical tests indicated that in urine samples E.coli have high occurrence frequency 19 (47.5%) followed by Proteus mirabilis 18(45%) and Klebsiella species 1 (2.5%), while in wounds samples each of Pseudomonas spp. and Proteus mirabilis 10 (25%) , then followed by E.coli with 5 (12.5%) and Klebsiella species 3 (7.5%). Ear swaps samples revealed that Pseudomonas aeruginosa 7 (46%) was the major bacterium followed by Proteus mirabilis 4(26.6).Sensitivity test against eleven antimicrobial agents was done for all of the Proteus mirabilis isolates (32 isolates). The results display

Histological and histomorphometric analysis of strontium chloride coated commercially pure titanium implant compared with hydroxyapatite coating
...Show More Authors

Background: In recent years, the immediate loading of dental implants has become more accepted as a standard protocol for the treatment of the edentulous area. Success in implant dentistry depends on several parameters that may improve phenomenon of osseointegration and new bone formation in close contact with the implant. The aim of study was to evaluate the effect of strontium chloride coating of screw shape commercially pure titanium dental implant osseointegration at bone - implant interface by histomorphometric analysis and compare with hydroxyapatite coating at 2 time periods (2 weeks and 6 weeks). Materials and methods: Electrophoretic Deposition Technique (EPD) was used to obtain a uniform coating layer on commercially pure titanium

Synthesis, Characterization and Biological Evaluation of New Dithiocarbamate Ligand and Its Complexes with some Metal Ions
...Show More Authors

New bidentate dithiocarbamate ligand (NaL) namely [Sodium-2-(((3-methyl -4- “(2,2,2-tri fluoro ethoxy) pyridin-2”-yl) methyl) sulfinyl)-1H-benzoimidazole -1-carbodithioate] was prepared. This free ligand was synthesized from the reaction of a (RS)-2-([3-methyl -4-(2,2,2-tri fluoroethoxy) pyridin-2-yl] methyl sulfinyl)-1H benzoimidazole, CS2 and NaOH in methanol as solvent. From reaction of dithiocarbamate salt (NaL) with metal ions (M); Co(II), Ni(II), Cu(II), Zn(II), Cd(II) and Pd(II)”, have obtained the DTC complexes at general molecular formula [M(L)2(H2O)2] and [Pd(L)2]. To characterize the ligand and its complexes, used different analyses methods such FTIR, UV-Vis, elemental microanalysis, atomic absoreption, magnetic susceptibil

Persistence and bifurcation analysis among four species interactions with the influence of competition, predation and harvesting
...Show More Authors

      In this paper, the interplay among four population species is offered. The system consists of two competitive prey, predator and super predators. The application of the hypothesis of the Sotomayor theorem for local bifurcation around every equilibrium point is adopted. It is detected that the transcritical bifurcation could occur near most of the system's equilibrium points, while saddle-node and pitchfork bifurcation can not be accrued at any of them. Further, the conditions that guarantee the accruing Hopf bifurcation are carried out. Finally, some numerical analysis is illustrated to confirm the analytical results.
