Background:Dyslipideamia is an important major risk factor for cardiovascular disease (CVD), which is the leading cause of death in the developed and developing countries. The world health organization estimates that dyslipideamia is associated with more than half of global cases of ischemic heart disease and more than 4 million deaths per year.
Objective:To assess the serum lipid profile in hypertensive patients.
Patients and methods: A case – control study was carried out at AL – Mustansyria , AL- Dubbat primary care centers for family Medicine and Medical city out patients clinic.Lipid profile were studied in 100 hypertensive patients and 100 healthy volunteers individuals attending these clinics matched for age and sex, serving as a control group. Full history was taken, complete clinical examination was done and various laboratory investigations were carried for all individuals in both groups.
Results: The mean age was (50.9±9.1)year ; (49.7±9.7)year for hypertensive and control individuals. With 50 % for males and females in both groups. The hypertensive patients had significantly higher body mass index than controls (P=0.005).The hypertensive patients had significantly higher total cholesterol (TC), triglycerides (TG), low density lipoprotein (LDL), and lower high density lipoprotein (HDL),( 204.6±20.8, 162.7±45.2,126.0±23.0, 46.1±7.4) , than control group (176.0±11.8, 151.5± 120.8, 102.6±121.6, 56.2±7.5). In hypertensive patients the TC was significantly increasing with age, overweight, and more in males than females. The TG were slightly more in males than females. LDL had increasing value with gender and BMI. Also there is significant association between serum HDL and obesity in both hypertensive and control patients but more with hypertensive patients.
Conclusion:There is a significant relationship between dyslipideamia, B.M.I and hypertension.
In this paper, we proposed a new class of Weighted Rayleigh Distribution based on two parameters, one is scale parameter and the other is shape parameter which introduced in Rayleigh distribution. The main properties of this class are derived and investigated in . The moment method and maximum likelihood method are used to obtain estimators of parameters, survival function and hazard function. Real data sets are collected to investigate two methods which depend it in this study. A comparison was made between two methods of estimation.
Flavonoid-metal complexes from the medicinal plant, Chromolaena Odorata were synthesized in this study using a standard method. Flavonoid extracts complexes, namely Mn-flavonoid complex, Co-flavonoid complex, Zn-flavonoid complex, and Cd-flavonoid complex were characterized using Fourier-Transform Infrared spectroscopy technique (FT-IR). Based on IR data, it was observed that the complexes shifted to lower frequencieswhen compared with the extract, indicating the interaction of the C=O and O-H groups during the complex formation. It was observed that the complexes were synthesized at a certain condition, which is acidic,with pH values ranging from 2.11 to 3.68. The conductance values (Λm) of the complexes were fou

Therefore, we will expose in this study the mechanism used by the Iraqi state in incorporation the international obligations into the Iraqi internal legal system under the successive constitutions from the establishment of the Iraqi state until the issuance of the constitution (2005) in effect, as Iraq fol

Most patients have more than one lipid abnormality. Combination therapy with lipid-modifying agents could offer an important therapeutic option for improving the overall lipid profile. Combinations have demonstrated to provide additive efficacy and significant reductions in coronary events . This study was designed to evaluate the effect of ezetimibe, when used in combination with other hypolipidaemic agents ( statins) on lipid profile as well as on liver function ,renal function, oxidative stress, and platele

Aims of the study: The aims of this study was to determine the prevalence of oral manifestations , identify different microorganism from oral micro flora and determination of salivary IgA and salivary flow rate in asthmatic patients taking different dose of Prednisolone in comparison with control group. Subjects, materials and methods: The study included 17 patients under treatment with Prednisolone (10-20 mg),15 patients take (20-30 mg) of Prednisolone and other 18 patients take (30 – 40mg) of Prednisolone, and 25 healthy control group (10 male and 15 female). Results : The mo

The test also studies the effect of discharge and speed of evaporator fan. The results clearly showed that refrigerant type and discharge significantly influence the temperature drop across the capillary tube. While the speed of evaporator fan has small effect. Experimental results showed that the temperature gradient for the two refrigerants are the same, but after approximatly one meter the temperature gradient of R-134a is steeper than R-12.
The summary of this study is to identify the relation ship between exposuing of the
public to foreign satellites and the degree of cultural of Iraqi public . the danger Iraqi public
exposure to foreign satellite specially some groups of the public are still own limited culture
and ideology without enough conscious to attitude of society . such people cun easily be
controlled by satellites , because these satellites may be the only cultural source for them
which may badly affect their behaviour . This study also aims to identify the level of Iraqi
people exposure to foreign satellites and the types and motivations of that exposure , then to
realize the relationship between exposing to foreign satellites and the cultur
The aims of research is diagnose and indicate the role of fairness in the work of accounting, which is important in reducing the unacceptable practices to manage earnings by economic units, As well as the interpretation and indicate Ethical inside in the accounting and accountants in particular practices in the area of earnings management to reduce the negative effects of the practice and display the results mentioned acts according to what is supposed to be for the purposes of service users, Researchers have identified that one hypothesis, that "Fairness of accountants in of their work accounting lead to a reduction of earnings management practices". The results suggest that the accounting practices that lead to the manipu

Materials and methods: Standard Class V cavities were prepared on the buccal surface of sixty extracted premolars. Teeth were randomly assigned into two groups (n=30) according to the composite condensation (vibration and conventional) technique, then subdivided into three subgroups (n=10) according to light curing modes (LED-Ramp, LED-Fast and Halogen Continuous modes). Cavities were etched and bonded with Single Bond Universal

Show MoreNew thermally stable aromatic poly(amide-imide)s ( PAI1- PAI4 ) were synthesized from direct polycondensation reaction of Terephthalic acid and Phthalic acid with two new different diamine monomers derivatives of 1,2,4,5-tetracarboxilic benzene dianhydride as a second diacides in a medium consisting of triphenyl phosphite (TPP) in N-methyl-2pyrrolidone (NMP) / pyridine solution containing dissolved calcium chloride CaCl2. The polymerization reaction produced a series of novel poly(amide-imide) in high yield. The new monomers were characterized by FTIR, 1H-NMR spectroscopy. The resulting polymers were typically characterized by means of FT-IR, 1H-NMR spectroscopy, and solubility tests. Thermal properties of the poly(amide-imide)s were als
