Glucagon-like Peptide-1 Levels and Related Parameters in Rheumatoid Arthritis Patients Prone to Atherosclerosis
...Show More Authors

  The study aimed to estimate  the role of glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1)  and visfatin as a novel  pro inflammatory marker in Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA ) according to the activity scores of disease to assess the possibility of introducing glucagon-like peptide-1 and visfatin in the diagnosis and monitoring of RA patients and to found the correlation  of visfatin level with GLP-1 and AIP in patients prone to atherosclerosis ,fifty  healthy individuals as control group (G1) and fifty rheumatoid arthritis (RA) patients (G2) were enrolled in this study with middle age  ranged (30 – 40) years and BMI ≥24 kg/m2. ESR ,RF, lipid profile, CRP,insulin, visfatin and GLP-1were determined. Results in table (1) revealed highly significant increase in ESR,RF,TC,TG,LDL,VLDL and AIP level in rheumatoid arthritis (G2) comparing  to (G1) while significant decrease noticed in (G2) group comparing  to (G1). Results in table(2) showed highly significant increase in insulin ,CRP, visfatin and GLP-1 level   Results in table(3) illustrated correlation relation data and results revealed highly significant ,were r=0.035 for GLP-1 with visfatin for (G1), and highly significant , r= -0.089 for (G2)  as shown in figure(1-A) and(1-B),  the result also highly significant were r= -0.183 for  GLP-1 with CRP for control group and significant ,r= 0.043 for GLP-1 with CRP  for RA group as shown in figure(2-A) and(2-B), and  significant, r= -0.056 for GLP-1with AIP  for G1 and no significant, were r= 0.042 for GLP-1 with AIP  for G2  as  shown in figure (3-A)and (3-B). conclusion that summarized from this study is glucagon-like peptide-1 and  visfatin plays a role in RA pathogenesis that can be considered marker in RA . and may be used as a drug in future for  RA patients.

Histological and histomorphometric studies of the effects of hyaluronic acid on osseointegration of titanium implant in rabbits
...Show More Authors

Background: One of the unique prosthesis for tooth or teeth replacement is the dental implant. Our attempt is using a biomaterial system that is easily obtained and applicable and has the ability to provoke osteoinductive growth factor to enhance bone formation at the site of application. One of these natural polymers is hyaluronic acid. Material and methods: Sixty machined surface implants from commercially pure titanium rod inserted in thirty NewZealand rabbits. Two implants placed in both tibia of each rabbit. The animals scarified at 1, 2 and 4 weeks after implantation (10 rabbits for each interval). For all of animals the right tibia’s implant was control (uncoated) and the left one was experimental (coated with 0.1ml Hyaluro

...Show More Authors

A new approach and the developed FIA technique with many advantages (economic, fast, simple, accurate, and high throughput) are used to determine the decongestant drugs (Phenylephrine.HCl, Oxymetazoline.HCl) in biological samples, pharmaceutical formulations, and pure samples via continuous flow injection technique by oxidative coupling reaction, where the method depends on the interaction of the decongestant drug with organic reagents to produce colored compounds, where Phenylephrine reacts with 4-AAP at λmax503 nm to produce a red compound, and the Beer’s law range of 10-600 μg.mL-1 . As for Oxymetazoline, it reacts with DNPH at λmax 631nm to produce a green compound with a linear dynamic range of
