Vasodilator Effects of 14-Benzoilkarakoline in Isolated Rat Aorta
No full textIn the current work, we looked into how the alkaloid 14-benzoilkarakoline affected the rat aorta smooth muscle's ability to contract. With the use of a force transducer, or FT-03 (Grass Instrument Co., USA), isometric tension forces were measured. 14-benzoilkarakoline has a strong relaxing effect that is mediated by a complicated network of events involving activation of the NO-guanylate cyclase system, blockage of Ca2+ influx, and their release from SR. These events result in a drop in [Ca2+]I in smooth muscle cells and their relaxation
Assessment Outcome of Patient with Optic Edema
No full textBackground:
Optic edema is a swelling of the optic nerve that connects the eye to the brain. This swelling is a reaction to the build-up of pressure in or around the brain, which may have many causes.
Objective:
This paper aims to assess the outcome of patients with optic edema.
Patients and methods:
This paper is interested to assess the outcome of patients with optic edema. This study was conducted on patients from 15 to 45 years for both sexes, male and female, in different hospitals in Iraq on 15th March 2021 to 17th August 2022. The collected data was analysed, and statistics by SPSS and Excel programs. This study was examined into patient groups with 85 members of patients.
Results and discussion:
Without mentioning the underlying etiology, the term "papilledema" merely refers to oedema of the optic disc. Because it is the most well-known and significant clinical symptom of increased intracranial pressure, papilledema must be recognized in clinical settings. Modern diagnostic techniques have evolved to the point that it is now common practice to identify and treat elevated intracranial pressure before papilledema manifests.
Conclusion:
In this paper, we have studied all the causes, symptoms, and evaluation of farsighted patients for ages from 15 to 45 years for both male and female sexes. Our results showed that males were more affected than females, with a rate of 69.4% and females 30.6%. Moreover, the data collected revealed that age-related macular degeneration and Idiopathic intracranial hypertension had the highest percentage of patients, finding 25 and 32 patients. In addition, these results showed that Headache and Lr palsy achieved a large proportion of affected patients
Review: The Effect of Sarcocystis on Hematological Parameters
No full textThe parasite Sarcocystis is one of the main causes of a number of common diseases among humans and animals. The global disease that is transmitted from animals to humans is known as sarcoidosis. The production of over 200 distinct species of myocystosis is observed, with variations depending on the specific infection type and the characteristics of the ingested material (whether it is thoroughly cooked or lacks purification) in relation to human consumption. Sarcocystis is a highly prevalent protozoa found worldwide. It has the ability to create cysts of various sizes and shapes within the tissues of intermediate hosts, which encompass a wide range of animals such as humans, mammals, reptiles, and birds. Sarcocysts, being an obligatory parasite, rely on hosts in order to carry out their life cycle. The parasite utilizes herbivorous, omnivorous, and plant carnivores as its intermediate hosts, whereas carnivores serve as the definitive hosts for this particular parasite. This review concluded that Sarcocystis infections can have a significant impact on various blood parameters, including hematological and biochemical markers, and can lead to alterations in red blood cell count, hemoglobin levels, and hematocrit values. These changes can result from the parasite's ability to invade host cells and disrupt normal physiological processes. Additionally, the presence of Sarcocystis in the bloodstream can trigger an immune response, leading to an increase in white blood cell count and other inflammatory markers
Active Versus Expectant Management for Women in the Third Stage of Labor
No full textBackground: The third stage of labor is a normal physiological progression of birth that may be compounded by serious complications. The most common complication is postpartum hemorrhage. Clinical guidelines to prevent postpartum haemorrhage widely recommend the provision of package intervention known collectively as active management of the third stage of labor. Although there is some variation across AMTSL guideline, the intervention commonly includes prophylactic administration of a uterotonic agent, cord clumping & controlled cord traction. Aim of the study: This study is designed to evaluate the effectiveness of active versus expectant management of the third stage of labor in minimizing the amount of blood loss, the incidence of post-platinum hemorrhage, postpaitum Hemoglobin reduction & sh01tening the duration of this stage. Study setting and design: This study was conducted in Baghdad Teaching Hospital at the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology. It is a prospective study applied on a randomized sample of women who expected a vaginal birth at 24 weeks gestation or later. Patient & Method: Two hundred women in the 3rd stage of labor after vaginal delivery were grouped into two groups the physiological management II group & active management group, where the amount of blood loss &the incidence of PPH, HP: S9g/dl 24to72hours postpartum& duration of 3rd stage was compared as the study outcome.Results: In 200 cases, 100 cases were assigned to active management Group & 100 were assigned to the physiological management group. The average blood loss in the third stage of labor in the active management group was 157.7 ± 100.1 ml Vs396.82 ± 169.6 ml in the physiological management group, so there was a significant reduction in postpartum blood loos in the active management group. The incidence of post-partum hemorrhage was 2.2% in the active management group vs 10.0% in the physiological management group, so there was a significant reduction in the incidence of PPH in the active management group. The active management group was unlikely to have Hb: S9gm/dl24to48hr Postpartum as it occurs in 2.0%, while in the physiological management group 9.0%. The duration of 3rd stage of labor was significantly shorter in the active management group. It was3.8± 0.98min. vs7.46± 1.74 min. in the physiological management group. Conclusion: Active management of the third stage of labor decreases the amount of blood loss, decreases the incidence of postpa1tum Hb: S9gm/dl & shmten the duration of 3rd stage of labor, so reduces postpartum hemorrhage & its complications
The Effect of Nutritional Status on the Physical Aptitude and Cardiovascular Profiles of School Children in Urban and Rural Areas of the Center Region of Cameroon
No full textThe purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of nutritional status on the physical aptitude and cardiovascular profiles of school children in urban areas of the center region of Cameroon. The study design was that of experimental model. 747 children, 384 males (51.4%) and 363 females (48.6%) took part in the study. Data was collected by determining the Body Mass Index (BMI) to assess the nutritional status of the children. Systolic blood pressure (SBP), Diastolic blood pressure (DBP), Heart rate (HR) was obtained as cardiovascular parameters while some conventional physical tests were conducted for physical aptitudes of the children. Applying descriptive (mean scores and standard deviation) and inferential (Independent T-test) statistics to analyzed data, the results revealed the following: Firstly, in the normal nourished population, mean SBP, DBP and HR was higher and statistically significant in urban area than in rural area as shown in the student test (t=12.63, P˂0.0001), (t=12.46, P˂0.0001) and (t=7.981, P˂0.0001) respectively. Secondly, with respect to age, we observed a significant difference (p<0.001) of SBP and DBP in the 6-10 years and >10years age group categories. The mean VO2 max (ml.g-1) in the >10 years age category was higher than that in the category of 6-10 years with a high statistical significance (t=8.059, P˂0.001). Still in the same population, the mean 30m dash(s) was higher in rural areas than urban areas with a good significance difference (t=2.999, P=0.0030). Lastly, the mean broad jump was highly significantly (t=10.34, P˂0.0001) higher in rural areas than in urban areas. In conclusion, we could deduce that nutritional status dan impact on the physical aptitude and cardiovascular profiles of school children in the urban and rural areas of the center Region of Cameroon. The fundamental recommendation was the need for the government to ensure a frequent systematic control of the cardiovascular profile of children in our school milieu in order to avoid sudden emergencies at adult ages
