Caries experience in relation to salivary physicochemical and immunological changes among asthmatic patients in Mosul city / Iraq
...Show More Authors

Background: Asthma is a pulmonary disorder characterized by reversible stenosis of the peripheral bronchi. This disease could affect the oral health; as a result asthmatic patients may have a higher risk of developing dental diseases. This study was conducted to evaluate the caries experience and salivary elements among asthmatic patients using Ventoline inhaler. Materials and methods: The study group consisted of 30 male asthmatic patients with an age range 20-24years (under Ventoline inhaler). The control group includes 30 subjects matching with study group in age and gender. Plaque and DMFS index were used for recording caries experience. Stimulated salivary samples were collected and then salivary flow rate, S-IgA and salivary elements concentrations (Ca, Na, K and PO4) were determined. Results: The mean value of dental caries (DMFS) and plaque index (Pl I) were found to be higher among study group compared to control group with statistically significant difference for Pl I (P<0.05), while not significant difference was observed for DMFS (P>0.05). The mean value of salivary flow rate, Ca, PO4 , Na and K ions concentrations were found to be lower among study group compared to the control group with no statistically significant difference (P>0.05), except for Ca and K ions the differences were statistically significant (P<0.05). S-IgA in the study group was higher than the control group and the difference was not significant (P>0.05). Conclusions: Individuals with asthma have a higher caries prevalence, worse oral cleanliness and lower salivary elements compared to the control group, so a special preventive programs need to be designed for those patients.

Frustrations of sectarian coexistence and mechanisms to activate peaceful coexistence: Iraq as a model
...Show More Authors

Abstract The study aimed at demonstrating the reality of sectarian coexistence in Iraq, which was characterized by the tolerance and coercion caused by the successive government policies to govern Iraq and to this day. The study was based on the hypothesis that coexistence between Islamic sects in Iraq can be achieved as long as there are strong bonds linking its components, and these bonds can produce coexistence between the sects based on peace. The study concluded that the hypothesis is correct, in addition to drawing a set of observations aimed at identifying weaknesses for advancing them through the adoption of mechanisms that address these weaknesses to yield towards a genuine peaceful coexistence among Islamic sects in Iraq.
