Death rates and causes among admitted neonates in Children Welfare Teaching Hospital – Medical city –Baghdad (2000- 2004)

Background: The neonatal deaths account for two-third of all deaths in the first year of life, and 40% of under-five mortality. Extreme prematurity, respiratory distress syndrome , neonatal infections , and congenital malformations are among the common causes of neonatal deaths.
Methods: We retrospectively studied 668 neonates who died over 5 years period from first of Jan. 2000 to the end of Dec. 2004 in neonatal care unit of children Welfare Teaching Hospital-medical city, by obtaining data from reviewing their medical records and death certificates.
Results: The death rate in neonates admitted to SCBU (special Care baby Unit) during the period of study was (10.7%), male constituted 432 (64.7%) and female 236 (35.3%) with male to female ratio 1.8:1. The major causes of death were congenital malformations (41.6%), neonatal infections (33.4%),and prematurity (10.3%).
Conclusions: There was no decline in the neonatal death rate in our hospital especially from sepsis and prematurity and low birth weight. Death due to late onset sepsis was lower than that due to early onset sepsis .There was a significant increase in the death from congenital malformations.

Acquired Error in using Antibiotic for Surgery Patients in Iraqi Hospitals

The use of antibiotics (AB) in surgery focused in either treating established infection or to prevent suspected post-operative infection. Inappropriate use of antibiotic for treatment of patients with common infections is a major problem worldwide, with great implications with regards to cost of treatment and development of resistance to the antimicrobial agent. Moreover, antibiotics may often be dispensed without a clear clinical indication. This study was conducted to estimate the medication errors in using antibiotic for surgery patients which may effect their wound healing. A 260 patients with clean-contaminated and contaminated surgery were included from two teaching hospitals, 160 patient from Medical city hospital and 100 fro

Violation of the Hormonal Spectrum in Polycystic Ovaries in Combination with Insulin Resistance. What is the Trigger: Insulin Resistance or Polycystic Ovary Disease?

Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is the main cause of female infertility. The role of insulin resistance in the development of polycystic ovary is actively discussed here. The study included patients with PCOS without insulin resistance (n = 48) and with insulin resistance (n = 39). The comparison groups were patients with no history of PCOS: a control group without insulin resistance (n = 46) and a group of patients with insulin resistance (n = 45). The following parameters were determined in patients: FSH, LH, TSH, T3f, T4f, PRL, E2, 17-OHd, Pr, AMH, Test total, Testf, DHEAS, DHEASs, SHBG, ACTH, cortisol, IRI, IGF-1, C-peptide, and glucose level. The HOMA-IR index and the LH / FSH ratio and t

Synthesis and Study Biological Activity of Some New Isoxazoline and Pyrazoline derivatives

   This work involves synthesis of novel Schiff bases derivatives contining isoxazoline or pyrazoline units starting with chalcons . 4-Aminoacetophenone was reacted with 3-nitrobenzaldehyde in basic medium giving chalcone [I] by claisen-schemidt reaction. The chalcone [I]  was reacted with hydroxylamine hydrochloride giving isoxazoline [II]  in basic medium. The chalcone [I] could also react with hydrazitne hydrate to give pyrazoline [III]  . The novel Schiff bases with structural formula [IV] and [V] were prepared by the reaction of amino compounds ; isoxazoline [II] and pyrazolines [III] with p-substituted aldehydes or p-subsituted ketones, respectively in dry benzene using drops of glacial acetic acid as a cat

Besharat and Quranic signs of the Prophet Muhammad (PBUH): Study and analysis

In this paper, I highlight the bishops mentioned in the Bible in its sections
(The Old and New Testaments) where these books still retain the remaining remnant of the Bible
Issuing the prophets who preceded the mission of the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) and they must pray
And peace, as those bishops were mentioned in the Book of Formation through the recitation of the psalms
To Habakkuk, Malakhi, and Hajji.
As well as in the New Testament, which we see clearly in the four Angels: Matthew, Luke,
Disco, John.
Then the male lamented what was said of those bishops by expressing the eternal heavenly book (the Qur'an)
Al - Karim) as he focuses on this subject from multiple angles and exp
