Title : Association Between Retic Count and Heinz’s Body with Glucose-6-phosphate Dehydrogenase in Icteric Neonates
by Abdul-razaq Wehab Abdalla, Saba Behjet Khasim Al-Atwa, Nadia Hikmat Mohammed,
Abstract : Erythrocyte enzyme glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase deficiency may result in hemolytic anemia. It is a typical x-linked pattern. Hemolysis is generally associated with Heinz bodies formation in mature red cells. A descriptive cross-sectional study. A total of 117 neonates was enrolled in the study. Complete blood count, Retic count, Retic stain for Heinz’ bodies and other tests were performed for all of the neonates. Screening for G6PD enzyme showed that 45(38.5٪) of cases were G6PD deficient. Mean G6PD level decrease with increasing serum bilirubin level (P=0.0001). Patients with positive Heinz body had a low mean enzyme level 4.88±1.23 with a range of (2-8.9). while participants with negative reticulocyte stains for the Heinz body had a high serum level of G6PD (12.72±1.79). We conclude from this study that, there is a significant difference in the mean bilirubin level between G6PD deficient neonates and other icteric neonates.

Title : Biological Activity of Cultivated Jordanian Rosemary
by nawal hassan al bahtiti,
Abstract :

Rosemary separates, containing carnosol, carnosic corrosive and Rosemary corrosive have demonstrated contrasts as indicated by the extraction strategy, Mediterranean flavors like rosemary and saffron show great cell reinforcement action as scroungers of a couple of responsive oxygen classifications, subsequently, the engineered structure of the key oil of Rosemary - authorities, developed and developing in Jordan, was examined. HPLC investigation uncovered 24 mixes speaking to 96% of all out oils. The natural exercises of Jordanian rosemary remove have been contemplated, and how the cancer prevention agent and antibacterial exercises. Methanolic extricate uncovered comparable diterpene substance yet various proportions between carnosic corrosive and carnosol fixations. In separates with comparable Rosmary plants corrosive substance yet contrasting extents among a benzenediol abietane diterpene corrosive and a phenolic diterpene, the two diterpenes were seen to further have an effect on the in vitro most cancers prevention agent movement; regardless, and associated with the antibiotic agent capability, this ordinary activity stepped forward when carnosol became the important Taxanes fragment. Blend structures of the rosemary oils have been separated through GC.technology The extracted oils were commanded by alpha-pinene (12.5%), 1,8-cineole (38.5%), (+)- verbenone (1.1%),- borneol (3.25 %), (−)- camphor (17.1%), and racemic limonene (6.25%). Common activities of concentrates were revealed that, rosemary isolates had the alternative to subdue the advancement of Candida albicans, Staphylococcus aurous, Enterococcus faecalis, Streptococcus freaks and Pseudomonas aeruginosa. This examination finds the benefits of Rosemary Authorities L for normal activity

Title : Association between colorectal, cytokines and micrRNA
by Mrs. Einas Mahmoud Sounni, Mrs. Fayruz Omar Alsunbul,
Abstract : Colorectal cancer refers to the cancer that occurs in the large intestines or rectum. Internationally it is the third most prevalent cancer and primarily affects senior citizens of the age of 70 and above. To review the relationship between colorectal cancer, cytokines and Micro RNA. The review adopted a systematic literature review (SLR). The data was mainly secondary and included a variety of studies. 25 articles were included in the review. After secondary review and the consideration of the exclusion criterion of the survey, only 20 studies were included. The review revealed that miRNA and cytokines are important in the development of cancer therapies.

Title : Errors during root canal treatment performed by dental students
by Thulficar Ghali Hameed Al-Khafaji, Firas Saddam Oglah Albaaj, Aymen Hameed Orabi Al-Timimi, Mays Ali Azeez Alanz,
Abstract : Root canal treatment (RCT) errors such as ledges, perforations, blockages, broken instruments or overfilling could lead to bad prognosis and treatment failure. The assessment of such errors at preclinical stages of dental students could highlight aspects that require improvement in endodontic teaching. This study analysed dental radiographs to determine the error types that could occur during RCT performed by 4th year dental students at preclinical stages. Different types of endodontic errors were investigated in root canal-treated teeth (n = 1320 extracted teeth). The treatment was previously performed with approximately consistent preparation using step-back hand instrumentation and obturation with cold lateral compaction. Two examiners assessed the radiographs following achieving intra- and inter-examiner agreements. The data were analysed statistically using SPSS software. The results showed significant differences in the occurrence of different types of errors during RCT (P≤0.05). The errors were less likely to occur during the phases of opening access and instrumentation than during the phase of obturation. In this final phase, errors such as underfilling and voids were most frequent. In conclusion, the quality of RCT was poor, especially at the phase of obturation. Improving pre-clinical teaching methods, such as increasing training sessions and the number of supervisors, seems to be mandatory to reduce such technical errors.

Title : Insufficient Light Intensity in Classrooms and Asthenopia among Preclinical Medical Students
by Thanat Suprasert, Pawaruj Rirermsoonthorn, Supamit Techaungkul, Akarawat Wongsuksombut, Kannat Sawatdipong, Ratana Sapbamrer (Corresponding author),
Abstract : Insufficient light intensity in the classroom might be related to asthenopia in students, and consequently have a detrimental impact on learning performance. The aim of this study was to measure light intensity in classrooms, and to investigate the factors associated with asthenopia among 507 preclinical medical students. Light intensity was measured at all seats in classrooms, and compared to the standard issued by Department of Labour Protection and Welfare, Thailand. Asthenopia and associated factors were also investigated. The average light intensity in the 1st year classroom passed the standard, while lighting in the 2nd and 3rd year classrooms failed to reach the standard. The remarkable findings were that the students who sit at the seat with lower spotlight intensity had a significantly higher prevalence of asthenopia (OR=0.993, 95%CI=0.989-0.998). Female had higher prevalence of asthenopia than male (OR=3.571, 95%CI=1.602,7.958). The students who had myopia had higher prevalence of asthenopia than the students who had normal sight (OR=2.694, 95%CI=1.205,6.022). Therefore, the results can be used to conclude that insufficient light intensity in classrooms had an effect on asthenopia among preclinical medical students.
