The goal of this study is to determine interior pathogen that causes Diarrhea state to chidren between (1-15) years old, theirs patient from (learn hospital of alemamen alkadoman) in the city of Baghdad from 25/4/2014 to 1/10/2014 period of time, the study represents 103 sample of stool, the result represents that highest ration of infected by 48.545%, Rotavirus 39.80%, mix infected(parasite + Rotavirus) 8.73%, with record of lowest infection ration 2.91%, found during the study that the age group 1-5 years showed the highest percentage of injury Rotavirus by also reached 60.98% case common injury (Rotavirus and parasitic) where this age group, the highest recorded percentage of injuring 66.67%, As for parasitic infected which represented within the same category %26. The results showed that age group (more than 5 years) and deity 56% when compared with the other groups and recorded the results .There is a high significant difference between males and females in the pathogenesis of parasitic and viral infection when the probability p < 0.01, male recode (62.00-60.00)% more than female (40.00-38.00)% on serias.
pancreatic islets in which a process of programmed cell death (apoptosis) is elicited in the β-cells by interaction of activated T-cells and proinflammatory cytokines in the immune infiltrate. Interleukin-6 (IL-6) is a pleiotropic cytokine with a key impact on both immunoregulation and nonimmune events in many cell types .
Objective: to assess the level of serum IL-6 as an inflammatory marker in type 1 diabetic children, with correlation to FBG and HbA1c.
Subjects and methods: 45 type 1 diabetic child (20 males and 25 females), mean age 10.9± 3.4 years who attended the National Diabetic Center, Al-Mustansiria university were included in this study. 45 apparently healthy controls matched for age and sex were participated in this s

Background: Cytokines have long been implicated in the pathogenesis of autoimmune diabetes in a number of studies, and playing a role in the initiation of β-cell damaging process. The objective of this study is to gain more understanding about the role of cytokines in initiation of T1DM, through assessment of IFN-γ, IL-10 and IL-6 in diabetic patients.
Patients and methods: A total of 60 patients who were newly diagnosed as having T1DM (diagnosed less than five months) were included in the present study. Fifty apparently healthy control subjects were underwent the measurement of serum IFN-γ, IL-10 and IL-6 by ELISA.
Results: Higher serum levels of IFN-γ, IL-10, and Il-6 were observed in the investigated
Background: Relapse is defined as recurrent tuberculosis at any time after completion of treatment and apparent cure Recurrence of tuberculosis may occur as a result of relapsed infection due to the same Mycobacterium tuberculosis strain, or due to exogenous reinfection with a new strain.
Objective: To study the factors associated with relapse of pulmonary tuberculosis.
Methods:. Across sectional study had been done in the chest and respiratory diseases teaching specialized center in Baghdad during the period from the 1st of January 2010 to the 30th of July 2011. A total of 58 patients with relapsed pulmonary tuber

Fifty patients(24 female and 26 male)with pressure ulcersassociated with different diseasesand attending AL-yarmouk Teaching Hospital in Baghdad were selected in this study. The duration of sample collection was from March to December 2018. All blood samples collected from patients were submitted to a blood culturing technique to examine bacteremia. The results showed that12 blood bacterial isolates were obtained. The isolated bacteria were subjected to Vitek-2, which is an accurate identification technique. The results of the blood culturing technique revealed that 33.3% were Gram negative bacteria, while 66.6% were Gram positive. Diagnosis by Vitek-2 showed that 33.3% wereStaphylococcus spp.

Background: Diarrheal diseases are still a major public health problem especially in developing countries, due to their high morbidity & mortality rates, moreover the lagest
number of deaths with diarrheal diseases are due to persistent diarrheal states.We attemted to evaluate the size of the problem in our infants, and assess risk factors & outcome.
Methods: A retrospective study was performed in Al-Kadhemya teaching hospital, to evaluate diarrheal cases in under 2 years of age children , admitted to hospital during the period (Dec. 1991- Dec. 2001), from a total of 863, chronic diarrheal cases formed 286 (33.14%) that were evaluated for certain variables; epidemiology & risk factors etiology ,
