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 .

Abstract: The M(II) complexes [M2(phen)2(L)(H2O)2Cl2] in (2:1:2 (M:L:phen) molar ratio, (where M(II) =Mn(II), Co(II), Cu(II), Ni(II) and Hg(II), phen = 1,10-phenanthroline; L = 2,2'-(1Z,1'Z)-(biphenyl-4,4'-diylbis(azan-1-yl-1-ylidene))bis(methan-1-yl-1- ylidene)diphenol] were synthesized. The mixed complexes have been prepared and characterized using 1H and13C NMR, UV/Visible, FTIR spectra methods and elemental microanalysis, as well as magnetic susceptibility and conductivity measurements. The metal complexes were tested in vitro against three types of pathogenic bacteria microorganisms: Staphylococcus aurous, Escherichia coli, Bacillussubtilis and Pseudomonasaeroginosa to assess their antimicrobial properties. From this study shows that a

Chitotriosidase-1 levels in Iraqi Type 2 Diabetic Patients with Thyroid Disorders
...Show More Authors

Study aimed to determination of chitotriosidase-1 levels in Iraqi diabetic and diabetic patients with thyroid disorder. Also, study aimed to found relation correlation for chitotriosidase-1 with FSG, T3, T4 and TSH. Ninety subjects were including in this study.

Celiac disease (CD) is an inflammatory small intestinal disorder that can lead to severe villous atrophy, and malabsorption . Since the measurement of α-amylase activity is the most widely used biochemical test for the diagnosis of pancreatic and non pancreatic disease , therefore serum α-amylase were studied in the present study in an attempt to evaluate the usefulness of this enzyme in the diagnosis of celiac disease and its relationship with anti gliadin IgA and IgG and serum glucose . Thirty one patients with celiac disease were studied and compared with twenty four healthy individuals .

A Comparative Study Between The Levels of Adropin in Iraqi Women with Metabolic Syndrome and Diabetes
...Show More Authors

By measuring Adropin, fasting blood glucose (FBG), cholesterol, high-density lipoprotein (HDL), triglycerides (TG), low-density lipoprotein (LDL), and very low-density lipoprotein (VLDL) in the sera of Iraqi patients with MetS and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), the current study was designed to compare some crucial markers in metabolic syndrome (MetS) sera and diabetic patients (T2DM) with control. Twenty female subjects were divided into three groups: group I=40 with MetS and group II=40 with T2DM, and 40 healthy subjects were employed as a control group. Compared to the control group, Adropin levels in the Mets group and T2DM group decreased significantly (p < 0.05). In contrast, none of the patient groups (MetS and T2DM)

Assessment of Monocyte Chemoattractant Protein -1 and Fertility Hormones in Iraqi Women with Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome
...Show More Authors

Polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) is a well-known endocrinopathy and one of the most frequent endocrine-reproductive-metabolic syndromes in women, which can result in reduced fertility. While the actual cause is unknown, PCOS is regarded as a complicated genetic characteristic with a great degree of variability. Moreover, hormones and immune cells, including both innate and acquired immune cells, are thought to interact in PCOS. Chronic low-grade inflammation raises the risk of autoimmune disease. The study's purpose is to investigate the chemokine monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1) and fertility hormones in samples of women patients with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) in the City of Medicine. Sixty PCOS women comprise 30 heal
