داء السكري من النوع 2 (T2DM) هو مرض معقد يصيب العديد من الأعضاء إلى جانب البنكرياس مثل الكلى والكبد والدماغ والعين. بسبب ارتفاع السكر في الدم لفترات طويلة وعدم السيطرة على مرض السكري مع وجود عوامل خطر أخرى ، يمكن أن تحدث مضاعفات مرض السكري. تشمل مضاعفات مرض السكري مضاعفات الأوعية الدموية الدقيقة والأوعية الدموية الكبيرة التي تستهدف الكلى. تهدف الدراسة الحالية إلى التحقق من مستوى الانجوتينسن المحول للانزيم ACE-2)) ، عامل نمو النسيج الضام (CTGF) جنبًا إلى جنب مع بعض العوامل البيوكيميائية ذات الصلة في النساء المصابات بداء السكري واعتلال الكلية السكري مقارنة بالضوابط الصحية. اشتملت الدراسة على 90 مريض تتراوح أعمارهم بين 30-65 سنة. يعانون من مرض السكري من النوع 2 مقسمون إلى ثلاث مجاميع على أساس معايير ACR تشمل البيلة الألبومينية الطبيعية ، البيلة الألبومينية الدقيقة ، البيلة الألبومينية الكبيرة 30 مريضًا لكل مجموعة و 30 شخصًا يتمتعون بصحة جيدة كانوا بمثابة المجموعة الضابطة ، منمن زاروا مستشفى بغداد التعليمي / المدينة الطبية و مستشفى اليرموك التعليمي ، في الفترة ما بين ديسمبر 2021 ومايو 2022. تم تحديد مستوياتACE-2 و CTGF باستخدام تقنية ELISA. أظهرت النتائج وجود فروق ذات دلالة إحصائية بين مجموعات المرضى والمجموعة الضابطة لعامل CTGF ، ووجد أن مستويات ACE-2 تزيد بشكل كبير في مجموعات المرضى عن مجموعة التحكم الصحية. كما أظهرت النتائج أن كلا من سكر الدم الصائم FBS و هيموكلوبينA1C (HbA1C)قد زاد بشكل ملحوظ في مجموعات المرضى مقارنة بالمجموعة الصحية. علاوة على ذلك ، كشفت قيم معدل الترشيح الكبيبي المقدر( ( eGFR عن فروق ذات دلالة إحصائية بين جميع المجموعات المدروسة ، وكذلك اظهرت نتائج ACR وجود فروقات ذات دلالة إحصائية بين مجموعات المرضى الثلاثة ، والتي تمثل المعايير الأساسية لتصنيف مجموعات المرضى. على أساس النتائج التي تم الحصول عليها في هذه الدراسة ، يمكن استنتاج ان عاملي ACE-2 و CTGF يمكن تطبيقهما كواسمات تنبؤية مبكرة موثوقة للكشف عن المرض.
ABSTRACT : Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is one of the most common inflammatory neurodegenerative diseases linked with dementia, it is characterized by the deposition of amyloid beta-peptide (Ab) in the brain. The present study aims to innovate a biochemical relationship between AD and interleukin 38 (IL-38) as an anti-inflammatory cytokine, expose novel mechanisms and concepts regarding other biochemical parameters studied previously or recently in AD patients and also examine the biochemical action of memantine (10 mg daily) on AD patients. Sixty (60) diagnosed AD patients participated in the present study and classified into four (4) groups: G3 were composed of (15) newly diagnosed males (52-78) years / without treatment, G4 composed of (15

Show MoreBackground: The association between periodontal diseases incidence and development and the metabolic diseases as Diabetes Mellitus and Obesity are recently have attract great deal of researchers attention and investigation. The periodontal health proved to reduce the systemic inflammatory reactions and positively improve the glycemic control of diabetes Type2 patients. The aim of the study was to investigate the influence of oral hygiene control on the glycemic control of obese and normal weight moderately controlled Diabetic Type 2 patients, in addition to study the association of obesity with the gingival inflammation. Materials and Methods: Cross sectional study of three months duration. Included 30 moderately controlled diabetic type2 p
... Show MoreBackground and aim: Pomegranate is a medicinal herb that can promote healing of periodontal tissue through differentiation of mesenchymal cells both in vivo and in vitro. Therefore, this study is to investigate the effect of oral supplementation of Punicagranatum L. peel extract on bone defect in rabbit. Methods: Forty five male rabbits were divided into 3 groups; group 1; baseline group(5 rabbits) left without bone defect. Group 2; study group (20 rabbits) with bone defect model that received daily 1ml of oral supplementation of pomegranate peel extract (PoPx). Group 3; control group (20 rabbits) with bone defect model that received distilled water. Bone defect was done into facial plate of lower right central incisor. Blood biopsies by

The aim of this research is to determine the most important and main factors that lead to Preeclampsia. It is also about finding suitable solutions to eradicate these factors and avoid them in order to prevent getting Preeclampsia. To achieve this, a case study sample of (40) patients from Medical City - Oncology Teaching Hospital was used to collect data by a questionnaire which contained (17) reasons to be investigated. The statistical package (SPSS) was used to compare the results of the data analysis through two methods (Radial Bases Function Network) and (Factorial Analysis). Important results were obtained, the two methods determined the same factors that could represent the direct reason which causes Preecla

A total of 300 one-day-old broiler chicks (Cobb500, n=150; Hubbard F-15, n=150) were evaluated in this study. Blood samples were individually collected from all birds for DNA extraction. PCR-RFLP method being used for determination the genotypes of IGF-1 gene which then correlated with biochemical traits studied. Cobb500 broilers with TT genotype had significantly (p˂0.05) higher serum triglycerides values than those of TC and CC genotypes. Low density lipoprotein (LDL) were significantly (p˂0.05) higher in Hubbard F-15 broilers with TT genotype than those
... Show MoreABSTRACT: In dental practice there are many wrong habits that should be recognized and treated. One of them is the irrational antibiotic (AB) administration by patient. This indeed created an important issue in dental clinics first of all drug resistance and super infection. This was analyzed in our study and then the causes were identified and a plan suggested in recommendation hope that it will minimize the outcomes. Results: all those patients were finally subjected to be clinically diagnosed and treated this lead to only one fact, these antibiotics are not effective in one way or another since they are not prescribed by dentist
