Role of Osteopontin Gene Polymorphism and Certain Types of Interleukins in Pathophysiology of Osteoporosis in Iraqi postmenopausal Women
...Show More Authors

Osteoporosis (OP) is asymptomatic disease until the experience of falls or impacts that cause broken bones or fractures happened. Estrogen deficiency, abnormality in bone matrix components and interleukins expression can impact on bone homeostasis which gradually paved to osteoclastogenesis over activation leading to bone loss. A current case-control study was designed to explain the alteration in certain biochemicals, bone matrix components, immunological and molecular parameters that which accompanied with OP in the postmenopausal women. The period of study's investigation was from December 2022 to July 2023. All participants provided written informed consent, and the study was approved by Department of Biology, College of Science, University of Baghdad Ethical Council (Reference code CSEC/0922/0092, on 26-9-2022). One hundred and ten postmenopausal women were randomly chosen to participate in this study based on specific criteria from Al-Wasity Hospital, Medical City and Al- Imamein Kadhimein Medical City Hospitles, Baghdad, Iraq. The age of the participants was ranged from 45 to 70 years. Firstly, Dual Energy X-ray Absorptiometry (DEXA) scan was performed to all participants in order to assess the precence or abscense of OP disease. Out of 110 samples, 70 samples were confirmed with OP. Meanwhile, 40 samples were control. Venous blood samples were collected from all participants to estimated compelet blood count (CBC), immunological parameters as C-Reactive Protein (CRP), Rheumatoid Facter (RF), Anticyclical Citrullinated Peptide Antibody (ACPA), Interleukin-8 (IL8), Interleukin (IL-17), and Interleukins-22 (IL-22) using enzyme link immunosorbent assay (ELISA) technique, Parathyroid Hormone (PTH), and Calicum (Ca+2), bone matrix component parameters osteopontin (OPN), osteocalicn (OCN), and osteonectin (ON), in addition to,Osteopontin gene SNP rs11730582 polymorphism was determined by the Hight Resolution Melting (HRM) analysis. Highly significant (P≤0.01) decrease in WBC count (6.30±0.18 k/mcL) and HGB (9.900±0.132 g/dL) were observed in OP patients as when compared with the control group, WBC was (8.26±0.27k/mcL) and HGB was (13.321±0.287 g/dL), Conversely, highly significant (P≤0.01) increase was recorded in ESR (43.73±1.76 mm/hr), PLT (437.88±7.00 1083/uL) in OP patients in compare with control, (21.10±1.25mm/hr), and (226.79±9.39 1083/uL), respectively. However, highly significant (P≤0.01) increase was noticed in immunological parameters: CRP was (18.26±1.33 pg/ml), RF (IU/ml) results were positive, and ACPA was (23.26±2.74EU/ml) in OP patients when compared with control, CRP (2.92±0.18 pg/ml), RF (IU/ml) results were negative, and ACPA was (6.26±0.56 EU/ml). Beside to, highly significant (P≤0.01) increase was recorded in IL-8 serum level (249.08 ±19.98ng/ml), IL-17 (107.862±9.25ng/ml), and IL-22 (57.73±2.47 ng/ml) in OP patients as compared with the healthy control group were IL-8 (65.29 ± 5.62 ng/ml), IL-17 (46.135 ± 8.66 ng/ml) and IL-22 (13.57 ± 3.16 ng/ml). The mean PTH serum level of OP patients group was (77.80±1.79pg/mL) and in control group was (35.81±2.06pg/mL), whereas a highly significant (P≤0.01) decrease in mean of Ca⁺² serum level was recorded in OP patients (4.89±0.21 mmol/L) in compared with control group (9.63±0.13 mmol/L). Additionally, high significant (P≤0.01) increase was detected in OPN serum level (16.88±0.77 ng/ml) and OCN (29.86±2.25ng/ml) in OP patients as compared with the healthy control group (5.95±0.41ng/ml and 10.73±0.86ng/ml), respectively. In contrast, ON serum level recorded a highly significant (P≤0.01) decrease in the patient group (1.78±0.971ng/ml) compared with the control group (3.42±0.20ng/ml). The frequency of homozygote TT genotype in patient's analysis was, (14.3%), (10/70) than control group (27.5%), (11/40). While, the frequency heterozygote TC and homozygote mutant CC genotypes were [TC= (71.42%) 50/70 and CC= 14.3% (10/70)] and these genotypes frequency were not significantly differet from those of the control group, (TC= 60%, (24/40), and (CC= 12.5% 5/40). P-value was different (0.0158) significantly in genotype distribution of rs11730582 polymorphism in OP patients whereas, the P-value of rs11730582 was (0.1500) non-significant in control group. In conclusion, this study found that OPN, OCN, and ON protein act as a sensitive monitoring indicator can be used in early detection of osteoporosis. And because of the capacity to activate osteoclastogenesis and promote bone resorption, IL-8, IL-17, IL-22 and rs11730582 of OPN gene polymorphism may be serve as a biomarkers, pro-inflammatory and immune-stimulating factors in OP development.

Political Text and Its Translation into Arabic: El texto político y su traducción del español al árabe
...Show More Authors

      Field of translation is sampled with many types of translation, such as the literary, scientific, medical, etc. The translation of grammatical aspects has always been with difficulties.

Political translation is the focus here. There are many general problems faced by translators when translating political texts from Arabic into Spanish. The aim here is to clarify the definition of functions or terms within the text, and to arrive at the correct from of translation of such texts from Spanish into Arabic.  It is worth mentioning that the paper is of two parts: the first exemplifies what is meant by translation, the prerequisites of a translator, along with mentioning the methods followed&nbs

AI-Enabled Hybrid Optical–Acoustic Communication for UUVs Using WDM-OOK: Design and Real-Time Performance Evaluation
...Show More Authors

One of the key challenges is reliable communication for Unmanned Underwater Vehicles (UUVs) since underwater environments are dynamic and challenging for signal transmission. The traditional acoustic communication systems allow long-distance communication but are limited by the low bandwidth, high latency, and doppler effect. Optical wireless, on the other hand, provides high data rates with water absorption and scattering occurring within the transmission distance, but has a short range of communication. To overcome these drawbacks, a smart hybrid optical-acoustic communication system is proposed that is a combination of Wavelength Division Multiplexing and On-Off Keying (WDM-OOK) to transmit a high-speed signal over optical and ac

Digital Forensics Method for Fake Images Detection Using GAN Algorithm Based on Watermarking Technique and Image Content
...Show More Authors

The proliferation of manipulated multimedia content poses a significant threat in an era heavily reliant on social networks as primary information sources. Despite numerous countermeasures targeting specific attack types, the seamless nature of image manipulation challenges the differentiation between authentic and altered visuals. This study aims to detect fake images generated by StyleGAN2-ADA using watermark analysis and image content analysis techniques. The first experiment evaluates the performance of watermarking techniques in the spatial (Least Significant Bit (LSB)) and frequency (Discrete Cosine Transform (DCT)) domains using real-life imagery. Then, watermarked images are used as input to the StyleGAN2-ADA model to genera

     Atenolol was used with ammonium molybdate to prove the efficiency, reliability and repeatability of the long distance chasing photometer (NAG-ADF-300-2) using continuous flow injection analysis. The method is based on reaction between atenolol and ammonium molybdate in an aqueous medium to obtain a dark brown precipitate. Optimum parameters was studied to increase the sensitivity for developed method. A linear range for calibration graph was 0.1-3.5 mmol/L for cell A and 0.3-3.5 mmol/L for cell B, and LOD 133.1680 ng/100 µL and 532.6720 ng/100 µL for cell A and cell B respectively with correlation coefficient (r) 0.9910 for cell A and 0.9901 for cell B, RSD% was lower than 1%, (n=8) for the determination of ate
