Immunohistochemical study of PDGF, IGF of radiated tooth rat embryo
...Show More Authors

Background: Exposure to microwaves radiation from microwave oven may be harmful for users especially for the one who have highest contact with microwave oven. Because the body is electrochemical in nature, any force that disrupts or changes human electrochemical events will affect the physiology of the body by destabilization and interruption of many chemical body substance including growth factors.The insulin-like growth factors (IGFs) are a family of mitogenic proteins that control growth, differentiation, and the maintenance of differentiated function in numerous tissues. It fulfils an important role in growth and development of teeth, mandible, maxillae, and tongue. Platelet derived growth factors (PDGF) are proteins that regulate cell growth and division. In particular, it plays a significant role in blood vessel formation (angiogenesis). It seems that IGF and PDGF share in much tissue developmental process. Therefore they included in the present study in correlation to tooth growth & development. This study Illustrates the expression of insulin like growth factor and platelet derived growth factor by dental cells of rat embryos at periods of gestation 16th,18thday intrauterine life(I.U.L) and one day neonatal life. Materials and Methods: Animal model: Thirty-six female rats were used in this study .Starting from zero days (time of gestation that recorded) the pregnant rats were divided into three groups. Group A serve as a control, groups B exposed to microwave oven radiation For (15 /minutes; 5/min /hour for 3 hours continuously) daily and C exposed to EMF radiation for (45 minutes ;15 min /hour for3hours continuously)daily starting from zero day of gestation till the last day. The embryo of rats at 16thday and 18th day of intrauterine life and one day old rat (new born rat) were studied immunohistochemically for localized of platelet derived growth factor (PDGF) and insulin growth factor (IGF) markers. Results:The results showed that experimental group (B) exposed to short duration of radiation (5/ min.) stimulates the development of tooth germ and faster tooth growing in comparison to control with immunohistochemical results show strong to moderate intense stain for positive expression of growth factors(PDGF,IGF) by dental tissue.For long exposure period of radiation( group C) , it showed retardation in the tooth growth withimmunohistochemical findings record weak to negative intense stain for the expression of growth factors(PDGF,IGF) by dental tissue. Conclusion: Exposure to microwave (oven) radiation during pregnancy may play a role in the expression of IGF and PDGF by cells of tooth germ thatinfluence on cell differentiation and physiological activity of specialized dental cells, depending on exposure time.

Effect of Administration of Crystalloid IV Fluids Preoperatively on Postoperative Pain
...Show More Authors

Pain is a sensory and emotional experience that is influenced by physiologic, sensory, affective, cognitive, socio-cultural and behavioral factors. Postoperative pain is the commonest reason for delayed discharge and unanticipated hospital admission after ambulatory surgery. Our Objective is to test the hypothesis that administration of 2 ml/kg/hr preoperative IV fluids may attenuates postoperative pain.The study was carried out in the Baghdad Teaching Hospital, Al-Yarmok Teaching Hospital and Al-Karama Teaching Hospital from 12 May till 17 June 2009. The total number of patients was 120 (35 males and 85 females) with their age ranged between 10-90 years. The patients were divided into two groups according to administration of preoperati

Evaluation of Analgesic Activity of Newly Synthesized Phthalyl- tyrosyl-glycin Sodium
...Show More Authors

Alteration in the backbone structure of the endogenously released opioid peptides Leu5/Met5 enkephalins may result in compounds having comparable profile of pharmacological activity but with different physicochemical properties and side effects. Phthalyl amino acid and phthalyl esters are among the derivatives that have been synthesized and evaluated for their antibacterial and antifungal activities.This study was conducted to evaluate the possible analgesic activity of phthalyl-tyrosyl-glycin sodium that has been recently synthesized by our team.The study was carried out on 24 albino mice using hot plate method. The animals were allocated in to three groups; the first group received saline and represent a control g

Assessment of Some Mechanical Properties of CNC Laser Treated Ti13Zr13Nb Alloy
...Show More Authors

Background Alloys with the addition of zirconium and niobium eliminate the adverse effects of aluminum and vanadium on the nervous system, the possibility of metallosis and the initiation of diseases (including cancers or Alzheimer›s disease). In addition, they have better corrosion resistance, and a Young›s modulus value similar to longitudinal bone tissue. Therefore, only choosing appropriate materials does not guarantee proper functioning of the implants, the surfaces of the implants also have to be suitable to meet the requirements. The laser surface hardening process modifies the surface properties by imparting microstructural changes, whereas surface remelting induces changes in the surface topography, roughness, wettability and w

The effect of strategic alignment on the reputation of the organization
...Show More Authors

 

The current study aims to determine the extent of SOMO's interest in strategic alignment operations and whether this interest is sufficient to be reflected in enhancing its organizational reputation. The field of research was in the oil marketing company SOMO. The managers in the top management within this company were targeted and the questionnaire was used as a data collection tool. The study population (109), (105) questionnaires were distributed, (94) questionnaires and (11) questionnaires were not retrieved, and the valid questionnaires had reached (91) and the analytical and descriptive approach was used for the study, the current research found to find A direct relationship and a positive effect of strategic

Impact of Rationing on The Properties of Cement-Treated Gypsum Canals
...Show More Authors

The scarcity of irrigation water requires procedures of specific. One of these procedures is the implementation of the rationing system (a period of the irrigation followed by a period of the dry). This system can have an impact on the properties of irrigation channels. Therefore, the study of rationing system for irrigation channels is important in both water resources and civil engineering, especially if they are constructed with gypseous soil. In order to assess the rationing system on gypseous canals stabilized with a specific ratio of cement, practical experiments were conducted to detect the effect of wetting and drying cycles on the physical and hydraulic behavior of this soil and calculation of some properties of soil such a

...Show More Authors

Vacuum evaporation technique was used to prepare pure and doped ZnS:Pb thin films at10% atomic weight of Pb element onto glass substrates at room temperature for 200 nm thickness. Effect of doping on a.c electrical properties such as, a.c conductivity, real, and imaginary parts of dielectric constant within frequency range (10 KHz - 10 MHz) are measured. The frequency dependence of a.c conductivity is matched with correlated barrier hoping especially at higher frequency. Effect of doping on behavior of a.c mechanism within temperature range 298-473 K was studied.
