Prevalence of substance use disorders among prisoners in Al- Diwania governorate, Iraq
...Show More Authors

Background: Substance use disorders (SUDs) are among the common psychiatric disorders and constitute a major public health concern. Iraqi’s were exposed to widespread violence and wars in the last decades. High prevalence of alcohol and substance use was reported recently in Baghdad. Research literature documented the association of SUDs with exposure to trauma events e.g. wars, terrorist attacks and natural disaster. Published articles on SUDs among prisoners in Iraq are scarce. Therefore, this work was carried out to report on SUDs among prisoners in Al-Diwania governorate and its relation to antisocial activity.
Methods: A total of 1200 prisoners in Al-Diwania civilian prison were included in the stu

The Power of International Collaboration in Advancing Haematology and Oncology: Fostering Excellence between the UK and Iraq.
...Show More Authors

Modern international connectivity makes international cooperation essential for medical progress specifically in specialised medicine areas like haematology and oncology. Healthcare problems become more manageable when countries unite their expert knowledge with resources and creative solutions to achieve better patient results worldwide. The University of Baghdad should establish partnerships with UK healthcare organisations to address national healthcare deficiencies as they create mutual educational programs.

The systematic collaboration between UK and Iraqi healthcare institutions shows potential to transform blood-related care services. This research illustrates that multidisciplinary teams (MDTs) as well as direct partnershi

A Novel Histological Study Evaluating the Combined Effect of Bovine-bone Graft and Royal Jelly on Socket Bone Healing in a Rabbit Model
...Show More Authors

Background: The alveolar process, also called the alveolar bone, is a thickened ridge that contains the tooth sockets (dental alveoli) on the jaw bones that hold the teeth. After tooth extraction, several changes can occur in the alveolar process that may prevent or delay prosthodontic or other dental treatments. Recently, the Bovine-bone graft has been proposed to be applied in fresh extraction sockets to minimize the reduction in ridge volume. In recent experimental studies, Royal jelly has been shown to have antibacterial, antioxidant, antitumor, and anti-inflammatory properties, resulting in vascular dilatation and increased cell proliferation and differentiation.

Objective: To evaluate the ef

Investigating Epstein-Barr Virus IgG Antibodies as a Biomarker for Oncogenesis and Immune Evasion in Lung Cancer among Iraqi Patients
...Show More Authors

Background: Lung cancer is the predominant cause of cancer-related mortality globally, accounting for 18.4% of all cancer fatalities, leading to significant economic loss and societal hardship. EBV was identified in 1964 as the premiere human oncogenic virus; it currently contributes to over 200,000 cancer cases annually and around 1.8% of all cancer-related deaths globally. The KRAS gene belongs to the family of rat sarcoma viral oncogenes (RAS), it was identified in lung cancer located on the short arm of chromosome 12 (12p11.1–12p12.1) in 1982.
