Background: Survey of the occlusion in population groups usually include in their objections the academic assessment of occlusal feature, the planning resources for public health treatment programmers, the comparison of different population and the screening of groups for orthodontic treatment. Likewise a thorough investigation of the occurrence of malocclusions among school–students would be of major importance in the planning of orthodontic treatment in the public dental health services. For this purpose it is necessary to have detailed information on the prevalence of individual malocclusion among boys and girls at different ages distributed regionally, and moreover, an analysis of the need for orthodontic treatment in the different school classes. Materials and methods: This study was conducted from 20th October 2011 to 9th May 2013 on (3424 ) students (1712 males and 1712 females); from which 62 students (1.8%) were excluded because of incomplete information (no molar relation can be attended) giving a valid sample of 3362 (1681 males and 1681 females) aged (15) years old were studied with respect to facial profile ,sagittal occlusion according to Angle's classification, overjet, overbite, anterior crossbite , posterior crossbite, scissorsbite, rotation and displacement spacing and crowding. Results: The normal profile were presented in (73.76%) students (74%) males and (73.53%) females. Convex profiles were presented (20.34%) students (20.46%) males and (20.23%) females. A concave profile were presented in (5.9%) students (5.54%) males and (6.24%) females), The malocclusion were presented (73.05%) students (73.46%) males and (72.64%) females, According to the Dental health component of index of the orthodontic treatment subjects with no need for treatment were about 44.11% , the subjects who need little treatment were about 26.82%, 13.06% of the subjects who need moderate treatment, 10.03% great treatment need and about 5.98% very greatly treatment need. Conclusions: Orthodontic treatment need according to IOTN shows that there was no significant difference between males and females in the malocclusion, Facial profile and treatment need.
Despite efforts to contain and manage the SARS-CoV-2 outbreak which was declared a public health emergency of international concern in January 2020 by the World Health Organization (WHO), the COVID-19 pandemic still remains a major global challenge. Patients who display the classical symptoms of the infection are easily identified, tested, isolated and monitored. However, many cases of infected asymptomatic patients have been documented. These patients are not easily identified even though many evidences suggest that they can spread the virus to others. How and why these COVID-19 asymptomatic presentations occur remain unclear. The many theories and views are conjectural, and supporting evidences are still needed. In this review, we

Stools and blood samples was taken from each patient as well as other (30) healthy control matching in their age. The study included detection the Levels of Interleukin-40 and CRP in sera of patients and control. The result indicated presence of H pylori antigen in 115 cases 59 cases of males and 51 of females, Also, the result indicated increasing levels of IL-40, cholesterol, Triglycerides, Low density lipoprotein, Very Low density lipoprotein increased significantly while the level of High density lipoprotein decreased in patients sera in comparison with healthy c

Hemodialysis is used to reinstate the intracellular and extracellular fluid environment, by propagation of molecules in solution through a semipermeable membrane along an electrochemical concentration gradient. Blood catching in the dialysis machine and the recurrent phlebotomy may lead to losing about 1-3 g of iron per year. Prohepcidin hormone is an acute phase protein (type II) that plays a major role in the systemic iron irregularities as it is a mediator of anemia in inflammation and regulator of iron metabolism. This study aims to evaluate the effect of hemodialysis on iron hemostasis and its relationship with prohepcidin as an inflammatory mark
