Lung cancer is the largest cause of cancer-related mortality worldwide, constituting 18.4% of all cancer deaths, hence causing considerable economic and societal repercussions. The Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) is the first recognized human oncogenic virus capable of establishing asymptomatic, lifelong persistence. The KRAS gene, a member of the Rat sarcoma oncogene family, accounts for 85% of RAS mutations identified in human cancers and is present in 35% of lung adenocarcinomas (LUADs). This work examines the relationship between EBV IgG seropositivity, KRAS mutation-related immunogenicity, and the genetic polymorphism rs121913238, emphasizing their collective influence on oncogenic signaling, immune evasion, and modifications in the tumor
... Show MoreVitiligo is a complex autoimmune disorder characterized by the progressive loss of melanocytes, driven by a combination of genetic predisposition and immune dysfunction. This study explores the interaction between bacterial infections and immune activation in burn patients with vitiligo. Blood samples from 45 vitiligo patients and 45 burn patients were analyzed for HLA-class I and miRNA-9 expression using two-step qPCR, key regulators of immune response and melanocyte activity. Swabs from burn patients' skin ulcers were cultured to assess bacterial involvement in immune dysregulation. Results revealed significant immune imbalance, with HLA-class I overexpressed (fold change 29.98) and miRNA-9 downregulated (fold change

... Show MoreThe gravity method is a measurement of relatively noticeable variations in the Earth’s gravitational field caused by lateral variations in rock's density. In the current research, a new technique is applied on the previous Bouguer map of gravity surveys (conducted from 1940–1950) of the last century, by selecting certain areas in the South-Western desert of Iraqi-territory within the provinces' administrative boundary of Najaf and Anbar. Depending on the theory of gravity inversion where gravity values could be reflected to density-contrast variations with the depths; so, gravity data inversion can be utilized to calculate the models of density and velocity from four selected depth-slices 9.63 Km, 1.1 Km, 0.682 Km and 0.407 Km.

... Show MoreSimple and sensitive spectrophotometric method is described based on the coupling reaction of tetracycline hydrochloride(TC. HCl) with diazotized 4-aminopyridine in bulk and pharmaceutical forms. Colored azo dye formed during this reaction is measured at 433 nm as a function of time. Factors affecting the reaction yield were studied and the conditions were optimized. The kinetic study involves initial rate and fixed time (10 minutes) procedures for constructing the calibration graphs to determine the concentration of (TC. HCl). The graphs were linear for both methods in concentration range of 10.0 to 100.0 µg.mL-1. The recommended procedure was applied successfully in the determination of (TC. HCl) in itscommercial formulations.
... Show MoreCdSe/CdS Core/shell nanostructures were prepared through the chemical synthesis method. XRD ,FESEM and TEM investigations confirmed the formation of core/shell structure for the sample. The AFM measurement was employed to reveal the morphology of the prepared thin films. Optical characterizations of the quantum dots were done by UV-visible and photoluminescence spectra. It was found that the quantum dots prepared has good optical properties. Due to the presence of shell coating on core CdSe, the energy gap of the core/shell nanomaterial were increased from 2.2 to 2.3eV. The resulted QDs are a promising candidate for photovoltaic and biosensor applications.

Both types have problems which have been solved in the proposed stemmer which combined rules of both main types and based on Arabic patterns (Tafealat1) to find the added letters. The proposed stemmer achieved root exploration ratio (99.08) and fault ratio (0.9).
Cardiovascular disease is one of the most common comorbidities associated with enlarged extremities, occurring in 60 % of patients with acromegaly. The aim of this study is to evaluate the relationship of growth hormone and insulin such as growth factor-1 with obesity, dyslipidemia, hyperglycemia, and pro-inflammatory cytokines (IL-2, IL-6, IL-10), as risk factors for cardiovascular disorder in acromegaly patients. Eighty subjects were included and categorized into two groups: 40 acromegaly patients and 40 of the control group. The results indicated weight excess, hyperglycemia, hypertension, lipid disorder, and elevated levels of interleukins (2, 6, and 10).
