Background: Transradial compared to classic transfemoral coronary intervention has been shown to have similar efficacy rates, while being more cost-effective and most importantly safer due to fewer access site complications. Furthermore, patient comfort is increased and outpatient treatment may be feasible..Objectives: To start trans-radial intervention program and the initial learning curve for fellows and the catheterization –laboratory nursing staff. To test how could it be applicable and comfortable for our patientsMethods: This prospective study was performed in Ibn-Albitar hospital for cardiac surgery over a period of 6 months from the 1st of August 2012 till the 1st of February 2013. Every patient referred for percutenuos coronary intervention whether on scheduled or on an emergency basis was considered initially for trans-radial approach for intervention unless they are excluded. Allen test was required ensuring adequate ullnar collateral supply. Sledinger technique was used for radial artery puncture and a special radial sheath was introduced. Intervention was performed through the same catheter and equipments that are used for femoral approach.. medication given according to center protocol, the relevant data collected and patients immediately ambulated unless they receive sedation.Results: A total of 126 patients were referred for intervention during the study period, 20 cases were excluded for various reasons , 6caese were crossed over to femoral approach and the other 100 cases the procedure completed transradially. The mean age of the patients was 57 ± 8 years. Of these 72% were males ,with different risk factors . Most cases presented with chronic stable angiana (87%). Access site was right radial artery in 87% of patients while left radial approach used in 13% of patients. In 72% of cases single guiding catheter was used, in 21% of cases 2 guiding catheter were used and more than 2 types of guiding catheter were used in 7% of cases. In most session of intervention single artery was treated (78%) , 2 vessel intervention in 21%, 3 vessel in one case..Lesions treated were different types 26%,36%,38% A,B and C respectively. The success in obtaining radial access was 97.7% ,while angiographic procedural success rate was 96%. Mean total procedure time was ( 43+/-23min ), mean fluoroscopy time (13+/-8 min )and the average amount of contrast used was (178+/-80ml). with no major complication apart from 3% small heamatom and 6% radial loss. Around 80% of patients preferred TRI approach.Conclusion: Radial artery approach for percutenuos coronary interventions has high procedural success rate and associated with low risk of access site complications and no significant increase of procedural and fluoroscopy time. It is comfortable approach for most patients especially female and obese. Early ambulation with no risk of bleeding and reduction of the duration of hospital stay are in favor of TRI approach.
Arabs knew the art of diction and elocution as part of their life in peace and war and in lamentation, satire, narration and description, as they were distinguished by influential and meaningful speeches in war and battle times, and the most prominent topics of the pre-Islamic rhetoric were pride, enthusiasm, bravery and other meanings related to heroism and call for war. It was not a long time when Arabs paid more attention to this great phonetic phenomenon, as they see that it elevates the status of the word and shows its meanings and significances. The current research aims to reveal the function of diction in conveying the meaning in radio drama.

This study involved calculation the corrosion rates of the internal surfaces of the

In the first suggestion removal of the dissolved O2 from water is achieved by increasing the dosage of the oxygen scavenger (sodium sulphite). The second suggestion involves removing the dissolved O2 from w
In his life, a person engages in different types of verbal and actual dispositions that result in various effects, some of which are necessary and not valid, such as selling, and some are not necessary for one of the two contracting parties, such as a mortgage or both, such as lending and agency. However, there are some actions that are sometimes necessary and not necessary at other times, such as a gift that indicates in its simplest sense. Owning money for another without compensation, it is one of the doors of benevolence and benevolence, and it is one of the attributes of perfection with which God, may He be glorified and exalted be He, described Himself. - And if this analogy is the difference - and distanced himself from greed, the

Show MoreResults of the current study demonstratedthat out of eighty-three isolatesof Pseudomonas aeruginosa,only twenty-five isolateswere resistant to five different antibiotics (of different classes) that were consequentlyconsideredmultidrug resistant isolates.These isolates developed variable susceptibility toward Eucalyptuscamaldulensisleavesoil (ECO). GC-MS analysis of ECOrevealed that the aromatic oil eugenol is the major constituent.However, the most frequent MIC was 0.39 µg/ml, while the lowest frequent MIC was 3.125 µg/ml.Moreover, this oil at ½ MIC (0.195µg/ml) increased the gene expression of exoU. Itis concluded from the outcomes of the studythat ECOmay cause severe damagewhen used to treat infections caused by P. aeruginosa.
... Show MoreEnvironmental pollution is regarded as a major problem, and traditional strategies such as chemical or physical remediation are not sufficient to overcome the problems of pollution. Petroleum-contaminated soil results in ecological problems, representing a danger to human health. Bioremediation has received remarkable attention, and it is a procedure that uses a biological agent to remove toxic waste from contaminated soil. This approach is easy to handle, inexpensive, and environmentally friendly; its results are highly satisfactory. Bioremediation is a biodegradation process in which the organic contaminants are completely mineralized to inorganic compounds, carbon dioxide, and water. This review discusses the bioremediation of petroleum-

This work aims to examine and evaluate bacteriological characteristics and endotoxin contamination levels in hemodialysis water produced in dialysis centers. Forty‐eight water samples were collected and analyzed from four major hospitals in Baghdad for one year to evaluate seasonal effects. The analysis included the determination of total heterotrophic bacteria using the pour plate method, identification of bacterial isolate using the Vitek2 compact instrument, and the determination of endotoxins levels using Limulus ameboc
Diabetic Nephropathy(DN) is a complex disease manifested by persistence microalbuminuria occurring due to the interaction between hemodynamic and metabolic pathway that activates the local renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system resulting in a decline in renal functions.
This study aimed to quantify the associations between serum aldosterone concentration and fetuin- A as a marker of calcification in type 2 diabetic patients with and without microalbuminuria from one side, and study the possible relationship between aldosterone and fetuin-A with glycemic indices, serum electrolyte, renal function and microalbuminuria and body mass index from the other side.
