IGF-1 , Leptin & AIP in relation to Osteoarthritis with and without Diabetes Mellitus Type2
...Show More Authors

        IGF-1  is a protein  produced  by  the liver in  response  to  growth hormone   stimulus.One important  key in effectively  preventing  and   treating  osteo arthritis, is establishing a healthy balance of IGF-1.    Leptin is a hormone  produced   by  adipose tissue,   acting as a  sensor  of  fat  mass in  part  of   a negative   feedback   loop   that maintains  a  set  point  for  body  fat  stores.  Leptin  plays  an important  role  in   the progression of  Osteoarthritis (OA),  prompting  some  to  classify  OA as a metabolic   disease. it, has been found in synovial fluid  from  patients with OA , and  are thought  to have  local effects  on  joint  tissues .  Atherogenic  index   of   plasma   (AIP)     is  newly  marker of atherogenectiy  provide  prediction  to  accelerated  development  of  atherosclerosis  in diabetes mellitus patients.  Objective  This    study   was   designed   to   find  out  the variation of some parameters in OA with &  without  T2DM.                                                                                     Patients and methods   This study  included ( 88)  subjects  aged   between (40-60) years  (all females , newly    diagnoses  and  obese)   who   were   attending   the   Al- Kadhimiya   Teaching  Hospital . Baghdad  and   Al-Mustansiriya  University .  The enrolled patients were divided to four groups: OA(24) , T2DM (20), OAwithT2DM (24) and control (20) . Venous blood samples from women were taken for laboratory investigation which included : Fasting plasma glucose , lipid profile (TC ,TG , HDLc and    LDLc) ,  IGF-1  ,  Leptin  were   measured  and  Atherogenic  index  of  plasma calculated as molar ratio of log (TG/ HDL-C).  Results      The current study shows a significant increased atherogenic index , Leptin value ,  in  three  patients  groups   diabetes , osteoarthritis   and  OAwith  DM   when compared   with  control.  But  IGF-1  level  was  significantly  decreased  in the three patients groups T2DM, OA , T2DM with OA when compared with control . Conclusion Osteoarthritis  has a direct  effect on dislipidemia ,Leptin & AIP value in  Diabetes mellitus type2

SIMULATION AND MODELING OF HYDRO CRACKING REACTR TO REDUCE POLLUTION CAUSED BY REFINERIES: SIMULATION AND MODELING OF HYDRO CRACKING REACTR TO REDUCE POLLUTION CAUSED BY REFINERIES
...Show More Authors

Hydro cracking of heavy oil is used in refinery to produce invaluable products. In this research, a model of hydro cracking reactor has been used to study the behavior of heavy oil in hydro cracking under the conditions recommended by literature in terms lumping of feed and products. The lumping scheme is based on five lumps include: heavy oil, vacuum oil, distillates, naphtha and gases. The first order kinetics was assumed for the conversion in the model and the system is modeled as an isothermal tubular reactor. MATLAB 6.1 was used to solve the model for a five lump scheme for different values of feed velocity, and temperature.

MEASURING OBESITYLEVEL BY BIO-ELECTRICAL IMPEDANCE ANALYSIS TECHNIQUE AND COMPARED TO TRADITIONAL METHODS: MEASURING OBESITYLEVEL BY BIO-ELECTRICAL IMPEDANCE ANALYSIS TECHNIQUE AND COMPARED TO TRADITIONAL METHODS
...Show More Authors

This study aimed to determine obesity level of some population in Baghdad by using Bio-electrical impedance analysis (BIA) and compared with anthropometric measurements such as body mass index (BMI), waist circumference (WC) and waist-to-hip ratio (WHR). Statistical analysis results of linear correlation coefficients for obesity indicators showed that BIA correlation 0.92 was most significant and reliable for obesity measurement.

Results of BIA method for age group 20-29 years showed that 44.4% of females were healthy body while 37.8% of males suffer from increased body fat. Results of age group 30-39 year showed that 32.6 of females were in healthy body and 42% of males were obese. In case age group 40-4

Gender and culture are among the factors that influence the process of understanding and interpreting different types of communication, especially images. The current study, which is a part of a master’s thesis, aims at investigating the role of gender and culture in interpreting and understanding the caricatures that deal with women’s issues in Arab societies. To this end, the researchers adopted Barthes’ (1957) concepts of denotation and connotation in his theory of mythologies in addition to Langacker’s (1987) theory of (Domains). The research concludes that the female subjects have better cognitive abilities in investing the signs within the selected caricatures. The other factor the study reached to is that the respondents
