The levels of IFN- , IL-12 And Testosterone Hormone in Persons with Asymptomatic Toxoplasmosis

Background: The primary goal of this study is to perceive the immunological differences in mean level of IFN- and IL-12 in persons who have positive results for anti-toxoplasma gondii antibodies compared to persons who gave negative results for these antibodies. The secondary goal is to inspect the endocrineimmune interaction in thesepersons by detecting the effect of testosterone hormone level on cellular immune response namely, IL-12& IFN- . This study also detect the effect of Toxoplasma gondii on the level of testosterone hormone in those persons compared with healthy control.
Objective: Investigate the relationship between T. gondii and serum IL-12,IFN- and testosterone hormone levels in asymptomatic persons with positive anti-toxoplasma antibodies compared with healthy control and Study the endocrine _immune interaction in these persons .
Patients and methods: Seventy seven asymptomatic persons who have positive anti-toxoplasma antibodies and 30 persons who have negative anti-toxoplasma antibodies were included in this study and subjected to estimating the levels of IL-12, IFN- and testosterone hormone by ELISA technique.
Results: The levels of both IL-12 and IFN- were statistically higher in persons with positive antitoxoplasma antibodies than in control. The levels of testosterone hormone were higher in both males and females with positive toxoplasmosis than control. There was a positive association between increased level of testosterone and IL-12 level while there was no effectiveness of testosterone on IFN- level in persons with positive anti-toxoplasma antibodies.
Conclusion: Toxoplasma gondii elicits cellular immune response detected by statistically important increased in IL-12 and IFN- level compared with control. Not only host hormone can affect responses to infection, but parasites can both enhance production and alter hormone concentration in their hosts.

the ROLE OF ORGANIZATIONAL JUSTICE IN DEVELOPING PSYCHOLOGICAL OWNERSHIP OF WORKERS

The research aims to demonstrate the role of organizational justice as an independent variable in influencing the achievement of development of the sense of psychological ownership of workers as a dependent variable. The current research variables were distinguished as being effective variables in terms of the field and affecting the achievement of success for organizations. In order to achieve this goal, it was applied on a sample of employees in the Iraqi Ministry of Transport employees, whose number reached (84) individuals, and the data were collected through the questionnaire as a main tool, to come out with a set of conclusions that contribute to raising the levels of the researched company, and based on the importance of the

Results of Minimal Dosage Propranolol in the Management of Infantile Haemangioma

ABSTRACT: BACKGROUND: Infantile haemangioma one of the most common tumour of new borns , a safe and effective treatment options are under ongoing research . OBJECTIVE: The authors show the effectiveness and safety of low dose propranolol as a method for infantile haemangioma treatment . METHOD: In this study twenty- four patients with infantile haemangioma in different anatomical locations were treated with oral propranolol and the result were assessed in a retrospective analysis of the results patients were kept on 0.25 mg/kg/day for one month , then on 0.5mg/kg/day in 2 divided doses for another one month , in the third month the dose will be increased to 1 mg/kg/day in 2 divided doses , then the propranolol were given in a maintenance do

Correlation of Penetration Rate with Drilling Parameters For an Iraqi Field Using Mud Logging Data

This paper provides an attempt for modeling rate of penetration (ROP) for an Iraqi oil field with aid of mud logging data. Data of Umm Radhuma formation was selected for this modeling. These data include weight on bit, rotary speed, flow rate and mud density. A statistical approach was applied on these data for improving rate of penetration modeling. As result, an empirical linear ROP model has been developed with good fitness when compared with actual data. Also, a nonlinear regression analysis of different forms was attempted, and the results showed that the power model has good predicting capability with respect to other forms.

Synthesis of New B-adrenoceptor Blocking Agent Including 1,3,4 Thiadiazole with Expected Adrenoceptor Blocking Activity

β-Adrenergic blocking agents, mostly comprising of β-amino alcohols, are of pharmaceutical significance and have received major attention due to their utility in the management of cardiovascular disorders including hypertension, angina pectoris, cardiac arrhythmias and other disorders related to the sympathetic nervous system. Most compounds available for clinical use belong to the aryloxypropanolamine series, which is considered the second generation of β-blocking agents. The present study includes the synthesis of compounds with an N-substituted oxypropanolamine moiety attached to the 1, 3, 4-thiadiazole derivatives. According to this information, eight compounds were synthesized and characterized by IR spectra and elemental m

Calculation of Particle Emission Rates for Nucleon-Induced Reactions with non-Equidistance Spacing Model Dependence

Nuclear emission rates for nucleon-induced reactions are theoretically calculated based on the one-component exciton model that uses state density with non-Equidistance Spacing Model (non-ESM). Fair comparison is made from different state density values that assumed various degrees of approximation formulae, beside the zeroth-order formula corresponding to the ESM. Calculations were made for 96Mo nucleus subjected to (N,N) reaction at Emax=50 MeV. The results showed that the non-ESM treatment for the state density will significantly improve the emission rates calculated for various exciton configurations. Three terms might suffice a proper calculation, but the results kept changing even for ten terms. However, five terms is found to give
