Pseudoephedrine (PSE) or (Sudafed) is one of the sympathomimetic group of drugs (ephedrine, PSE and amphetamines) which effects cardiovascular system, respiratory system, and gastrointestinal tract. However, only little researches had supported its effect on solid abdominal organs. This study aims to investigate the effects of different doses of Sudafed in the liver and kidney of albino mice. The current study included 18 albino mice grouped into 2 groups: control (3 mice), and acute group (15 mice). The acute group was further subdivided into 5 subgroups, each subgroup of 3mice wasgiven a lonely intaperitonial injection of 0.3ml of the following conc. (500mg/kg, 250mg/kg, 125mg/kg, 62.52mg/kg, and 31.24mg/kg) for 24hrs. After the mentioned period, the mice of all subgroups were sacrificed and the livers and kidneys were removed, processed, sectioned and stained for histological analysis. Results of liver analysis using 500mg/Kg Sudafed intraperitoneallyshowed mild ballooning degeneration of hepatocytes and central vein congestion, while lower doses (250mg/Kg – 31.42mg/Kg) revealed less prominent effect or no significant pathological changes.Moreover, sections from the kidney with the 500mg/Kg Sudafed intraperitoneally showed mild hydropic swelling of tubular epithelium with congestion of intertubular blood vessels and relatively healthy glomeruli. Lower doses revealed no significant pathological changes. Conclusion: The present study demonstrated various pathological effects of PSE on kinetic activity, and histology of Livers and Kidneys of albino mice.
Background: Dietary intakes are critical during pregnancy, because inadequate amounts of key nutrients may compromise fetal development or maternal health. In addition to that maternal diet could be one of the methods to select the gender of the baby. The aim of the study is to correlate the level of the minerals in the mother’s blood with the gender and wellbeing of the baby after delivery.Patients and Methods: Fifty women were involved in this study with a mean age (23.92 ± 4.75), collected from the labor room during labor in the period between December 2013 and May 2014, in Baghdad teaching hospital. After taking a full history from the women, 10 ml of blood was withdrawn from them, 2ml in EDTA tubes for lead estimation and 8 ml in pl

To do so antigens were extracted from sheep hydatid cyst fluid of Echinococcus granulosus .These were: 1- The hydatid cyst fluid called antigen B. 2- Excretion-secretion called ES antigen. 3-B/ES antigen is a mixture (1:1) of the above two antigens. Three concentrations (15, 30 and 60 µg/ml) from antigen B/ES were prepared to immunize the white mice (males) with 20 µg/gr body weight and one booster dose (10 µg/gr) to stimulate immunity. The efficiency of t

This parasite has an enormous public health problem in many countries. There is a growing requisite for new control methods for many of these illnesses due to the increasing drug resistance showed by the parasites and problems with drug poisonousness. In this study, fifty-five patients (burns and wounds) were collected from patients from Al-Yarmouk Hospital and Teaching Baghdad Hospital during the period from November, 2015 to January, 2016.

This work involves synthesis of novel Schiff bases derivatives contining isoxazoline or pyrazoline units starting with chalcons . 4-Aminoacetophenone was reacted with 3-nitrobenzaldehyde in basic medium giving chalcone [I] by claisen-schemidt reaction. The chalcone [I] was reacted with hydroxylamine hydrochloride giving isoxazoline [II] in basic medium. The chalcone [I] could also react with hydrazitne hydrate to give pyrazoline [III] . The novel Schiff bases with structural formula [IV] and [V] were prepared by the reaction of amino compounds ; isoxazoline [II] and pyrazolines [III] with p-substituted aldehydes or p-subsituted ketones, respectively in dry benzene using drops of glacial acetic acid as a cat
