Background: Acute myocardial infarction (AMI) is one of the most common diagnoses in hospitalized patients. Increased plasma hemostatic markers were noted in acute myocardial infarction, indicating that the blood coagulation system is highly activated in those patients. Aims of the study: To study the level of intrinsic coagulation factors including (FVIII:C, FIX:C ,FXI:C ,FXII:C ) in patients with acute myocardial infarction. Type of the study: Cross –sectional study. Methods: Thirty patients (their age range is 48-68 years) were included in this study (9 female, 21 male) who were just admitted to the coronary care unit in AL-Yarmouk Teaching Hospital and diagnosed as having acute myocardial infarction patients, blood samples were taken from those patients . Twenty healthy subjects (6 female, 14 male) age and sex matched with the patients were included as a control group. The following investigations were done for both groups: 1.Packed cell volume(PCV%) .by microhaematocrit method. 2.FVIII:C assay. [ by parallel line bioassay of coagulationfactors]. 3.FIX:C assay. 4.FXI:C assay. 5.FXII:C assay. Results Mean FVIII:C (162.63%±17.22)was significantly (P value< 0.05)higher in patients with acute myocardial infarction than control group(94.70%±9.34).1-Mean FIX:C (151.20%±14.20) was significantly (P value <0.05) higher in acute myocardial infarction group than control group(94.10±8.51). 2-Mean FXI:C (146.30%±7.87) was significantly (P value <0.05) higher in acute myocardial infarction group than control group (102.00%±7.91). 3-Mean FXII:C(71.03±11.46) was significantly (P value <0.05) lower in acute myocardial infarction group than control group (119.00%±8.52). 4-There is inverse relationship between FXI:C and FXII:C in acute myocardial infarction group(P value -0.736). Conclusions Patients with acute myocardial infarction had significantly higher levels of FVIII:C,FIX:C,FXI:C than controls. FXII:C level was significantly lower in patients with acute myocardial infarction than control group. There is an inverse relationship between FXI:C and F XII:C in patients with acute myocardial infarction.
This work presents an experimental study of heat transfer and flow of distilled water and metal oxide nanofluid Fe3O4-distilled water at concentrations of (φ = 0.3, 0.6, 0.9 %) by volume in a horizontal pipe with constant magnetic field. All the tests are carried out with Reynolds number range (2900-9820) and uniform heat flux (11262-19562 W/m2). The results show that, the nanofluid concentration and magnetic intensity increase, the Nusselt number increases. The maximum enhancement in Nusselt number with magnetic nanofluid is (5.4 %, 26.4 %, 42.7 %) for volume concentration (0.3, 0.6, 0.9 %) respectively. The enhancement is maximized with magnetic intensity (0.1, 0.2, 0.3 tesla) respectively to (43.9, 44

It has a crucial role in initiating, regulating, and mobilizing monocytes to active sites of periodontal inflammation. Its expression is also elevated in response to pro-inflammatory stimuli and tissue injury, both of which are linked to atherosclerotic lesions. Aim of the study: To determine the serum level of MCP-1 in patients with periodontitis and atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease in comparison to healthy control and evaluate the biomarker's correlations with periodontal parameters. methods: This study enrolled 88 subjects, both males and females, ranging in age from 36-66 years old, and divided into four groups: 1<

The current study has been conducted on 154 infertile patients complaining from varicocele and varicocelomized men in addition to 25 fertile men as control. The results revealed significant decrease (P<0.05) in sperm concentration, progressive motile sperm percent, normal sperm morphology percent, GSH, SOD1, CAT levels and chromatin maturity percent and significant increase (P<0.05) in MDA and ROS concentrations in infertile patients with varicocele when compared to fertile men.

Abstract
The Phenomenon of Extremism of Values (Maximum or Rare Value) an important phenomenon is the use of two techniques of sampling techniques to deal with this Extremism: the technique of the peak sample and the maximum annual sampling technique (AM) (Extreme values, Gumbel) for sample (AM) and (general Pareto, exponential) distribution of the POT sample. The cross-entropy algorithm was applied in two of its methods to the first estimate using the statistical order and the second using the statistical order and likelihood ratio. The third method is proposed by the researcher. The MSE comparison coefficient of the estimated parameters and the probability density function for each of the distributions were
