Neonatal mortality is an indicator to assess maternal and neonatal care.1 Iraq has been suffering from wars, economic hardship, terrorism and internal displacement for last 4 decades.2 The impact of such suffering on health was reported.3 However, the impact of terrorism on health infrastructure which in turn manifested in neonatal mortality was neglected. This study carried out to demonstrate the effect of war against terrorism on neonatal mortality in Iraq.

Background: Extreme obesity is recognized to be a risk factor for coronary heart disease. It is unclear whether overweight and normal weight also poses a risk.

Background: Asthma is an allergic hypersensitivity disease in which many mediators play a role in its pathogenecity. One of these etiological agents is the mediators such as Interleukin-5 (IL-5).

The  aim of this study to demonstrate the association between IL-5 and obesity in asthma development.

Background: Tinea versicolor is a common dermatological problem ,world wide distribution , caused by a dimorphic fungus called Malassezia furfur ,it live normally on skin as a commensal . Many factors play a role in the etiology of TV among these could be the disturbed immune system which may be related to the ability of TV alter the immune system by a process called Immunomodulation leading to subsequent infection. Immuno-inflammatory activity mediated by different cytokines could have a role in the etiology of TV.
Objective: To evaluate the serum level of the inflammatory cytokines ,IL-4andIL-8,in patients with TV as compared to immunocompramized patients and healthy groups.

Background: Transitional cell carcinoma of the urinary bladder is one of the important malignancies in both sex groups .It is considered as a heterogenous neoplasm with different
biological behavior, in which the majority are early non invasive with tendency for recurrence and some may progress to invasive tumor. An important clinicopathological features are ,the tumor stage and histological grade which are used as prognostic parameters of the tumor and play an important role in therapy. Due to the subjectivity of the histological grading , the reproducibility was low . Many studies showed the value of quantitative analysis of the tumor as an important method in determining the recurrence of the tumor and

A promotion to a previous computer programmed technique "Photo-Micro Estimation Program" was carried out to compute the exact dimensions of cell and cell fraction in photographs of
histological sections. "Visual Basic 6" was used as a language for building of the antecedent application forms. With the aid of a slide micrometer, pixels were substituted for micrometer
(μm). The new procedure was termed "Photo-histometry program". To test the suitability of this program, eight photographs of histological sections were selected randomly to be tested. Results were contrasted with those calculated by using ocular lens (calibrated by a slide micrometer). Estimation of RBC diameter (well known, =7-8 μm) was

Background: Pityriasis rosea is an acute, self-limiting skin disease, probably of infective origin. Doxycycline is a broad-spectrum antibiotic, and most probably has an
immunomodulator and an anti-inflammatory effect.
Objective: To assess the efficacy of doxycycline in the treatment of pityriasis rosea in patients evaluated between January 2001 and May 2002.
Patients and methods: This was a placebo-controlled clinical trial. One hundred and twenty patients with pityriasis rosea were included in the study; all of them were above 12 years of
age. They had been divided into 2 groups, the treatment group consisted of 60 patients and received doxycycline capsule. 100,mg orally for 14 days and the placebo group

Management of preterp'labour generally treated by salbutamol even with some expected disturbing -maternal pulmonary oedema , respiratory distress and
cardiovascular side effects and neonatal low-sized and cellularity of thymus and lymph nodes. This demands finding a substitute free of these side effects . Initially, acetaminophen was tested on rats uterine horns and on pregnant rats and reported an effective relaxation of the uterine horns and profound delay in parturition . These results jestified an in-vitro study on strips of gravid human uterus ruptured during difficult labour. Acetaminophen (50 mg) reduced tension by 50% which was comparable decrease in tension when 5 gg of salbutamol was added.&nbsp
