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.
The new tridentate Schiff base ligand (HL)namely 2-{[1-(3-amino-phenyl)-ethylidene]-hydrazono methyl}- phenol containing (N N O)as donors atoms was prepared in two steps:Step (1): By the reaction of 3- aminoacetophenone with hydrazine monohydrate under reflux in methanol and drops of glacial acetic acid gave the intermediate compound 3-(1- hydrazono ethyl)-phenol amine.Step (2): By the reaction of 3-(1-hydrazono ethyl)-phenol amine with salicyaldehyde under reflux in methanol, gave the ligand (HL).The prepared ligand was characterized by I.R, U.V-Vis,1H- 13C NMR spectra and melting point and reacted with some metal ions under reflux in methanol with (1:1) ratio gave complexes of the general formula: [MClL]. Where: M= Mn(II), Fe(II), Co(II),

Early detection through promoting public awareness is one of the promising tools in its control. Objectives: To evaluate the baseline needs for breast cancer awareness in Iraq through exploring level of knowledge, beliefs and behavior towards the disease and highlighting barriers to screening among a sample of Iraqi women complaining of breast cancer. Methodology: Two-hundred samples were enrolled in this study; gathered from the National
The aim of the current study is to in evaluate the role of SOD activity in the previously reported oxidative stress in our laboratory(1), in the patients with different brain tumors. SOD activity was assayed according to riboflavin/NBT method and its specific activity was calculated in patients with benign and malignant brain tumors and control. Moreover the specific activity was compared in these samples according to gender and the occurrence of disease.Non significant elevation (P > 0.05) in SOD specific activity was observed in tissue of malignant tumors in comparison to that of in benign brain tumors. While a highly significant decrease (P < 0.001) of the specific activity was found in sera of malignant patients group in comparison to t

The prepared complexes were characterized using flame atomic absorption, FT.IR and UV-Vis spectroscopic methods as well as magnetic susceptibility and conductivity measurements. In addition biological activity of the two ligands and their complexes against three selected type of bacteria were also examined. The general compositions of the complexes are found to be [M(4-AAP)2(PBu3)2] Cl2 . Where M= Co(II),Ni(II),Cu(II)and Zn(II). Some of the complexes exhibit good bacterial activities.

Mean of Uranium concentration (Uc) decreased with increasing age for all age group without dependency on gender. While, there is a wide dispersion in Mean Uc excretion between males and females, due to the effect of correlated gender with age, where female Mean Uc is maximum at age 50-69 year (2.355 µg/L), and it's higher than male Mean Uc (2.022 µg/L) in this age stage because of menopause, a
