This research sought early signs of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) patients. The current research's objectives are to identify collagenase-3 (CL-3) in RA patients with and without T2DM as a disease complication, compare these findings to those of a control group, and ascertain whether or not CL-3 correlates with all of the parameters that were examined in each group. In the present research, (150) participants all between the ages of 30 and 50 were divided into three groups: (G1) control (N=50), (G2) RA (N=50), and (G3) RA with T2DM (N=50). Collagenase-3, glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c), erythrocyte sedimentaion (ESR), anti-cyclic citrullinated peptide (anti-CCP), and rheumatoid factor (RF) were all mea

The recent study's goal was to use honey to reduce the acute effects of passive smoking on rats' pulmonary tissues. A total of 28 adult male rats were categorized into four groups: (1) control group; (2) rats were given honey (100 mg/kg BW/30 days); (3) rats were exposed to the cigarette smoke for 30 days; and (4) rats were given honey (100 mg/kg BW/14 days); previously,  the rats were exposed to cigarette smoke for 30 days. The mean Wet/Dry values were significantly higher in the KAR group than in the NC rats. While the PTV rats showed a notable decline in comparison to the KAR rats, the PTV rats showed no change with the NC rats. Also, after 30 days of exposure to KAR, we observed numerous changes in the rats' gross lung lesions and m

The growth of using electronic devices has led to the development of a new pollution type that has been referred to as noise, radio frequency interference, or electromagnetic radiation (EM). The identification of lightweight PMMA/Gr/Ag nanocomposites has led to the discovery of a new hybrid polymer composite. Electrical conductivity, High Electromagnetic (EM) Shielding Effectiveness (SE) in a frequency range of 8.20-12.40GHz (x-band), dielectric characteristics, and differential thermal analysis were used to examine PMMA/Gr/Ag. Using the solvent casting process, a hybrid PMMA/Gr/Ag nanocomposite was created. The hybrid composite's electrical conductivity demonstrates that D.C conductivity is around 1.6×10-6 S/ cm as concentration i

Sixty patients (male and female) with β-thalassemia major and thirty healthy subjects were enrolled in this study during their attendance at "Abin AL-Baladi Hospital in Baghdad" from September 2022 to January 2023. All patients and healthy subjects ranged in age from 15 to 30 years, and we collected the necessary data with their consent, adhering to the College of Science's ethics (CSEC/0922/0104 in 2022/9/28).

The results showe

The level density is a parameter that has great importance in the theoretical nuclear calculation, and it is considered a key of many theoretical studies, therefore, the level density in pre-equilibrium reaction or what is the so-called accurate partial level density PLD has been studied. The partial  level density PLD  used  in pre-equilibrium reactions is dependent on the parameter called single particle level density which can be calculated by two methods either using the equidistant spacing model (ESM) or non-equidistant spacing model (non-ESM)  In this study, the parameter   is estimated by using the relation between the level density parameter  and  based on Ericson and Williams's formulas (  )  is substituted from the Tho

        Assume that G be a finite group and let I(G) be the set of the involution elements in G. The result involution graph denoted by , , is an undirected simple graph having the elements of G as a vertex set. Moreover, two vertices in are connected by an edge if they are distinct and their product belong to I(G). The objective of this work is to investigate the result involution graph for the Janko group J₃. In this paper we compute different result involution graph features, such as the radius, the diameter, the clique number, and the girth. Furthermore, the connectedness of the result involution graph is determined. All of the steps needed for analyzing the result involution graph were carried out using the computa

     Acromegaly is a condition that results from excessive growth hormone production by the anterior pituitary gland. Prolidase (PLD) is the only known human enzyme that can hydrolyze dipeptides with an amino acid at their C terminus. Reports indicate that PLD activity serves as a marker for oxidative stress in numerous disorders such as diabetes, diabetic neuropathy, chronic liver diseases, and osteoporosis. The current study aims to estimate the values of PLD, its correlation with the rest of the parameters, and ROC in acromegaly patients. A group of 61 patients with confirmed acromegaly were collected from the National Diabetic Center, Mustansyrriah University, and 60 control groups were analyzed in the same place for the paramete

Zerlokh bentonite is the main material for preparing ceramic specimens with Al₂O₃ additions. X-ray diffraction analyses were carried out on the raw material at room temperature. The specimens of additions that could stand up to 1250 ºC are stable. That is shown by analyzing the X-ray diffraction pattern after heat treatment of the specimens. The growth of new phases like cordierite, anorthite, and cristobalite has the highest percentage ratio of cordierite (76.43%) and mullite (40.28%). So the presence of refractory materials in the obtained samples strongly supports the possibility of using bentonite with additions in the ceramics industry for high temperatures. Therefore, it gave distinct physical and thermal str

Structural analysis is a branch of solid mechanics which utilizes straight forward models for solids. The main objective of Structural analysis is to find out the effect of loads on the physical structures and their components. A beam is a structure with a constant cross-section and is described by its significant length in comparison to its thickness and width. A cantilever, on the other hand, is a slender beam with a uniform cross-sectional shape that is fixed horizontally at one end and subjected to a load at the other end. Columns, which serve as vertical compression members in building frames, are susceptible to buckling and failure when subjected to relatively small axial loads. The analysis of loaded beams, cantilevers, and elo
