...Show More Authors

Background: In type 2 diabetes mellitus there is a progressive loss of beta cell function. One new
approach yielding promising results is the use of the orally active dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4)
inhibitors for type 2 diabetes mellitus.
Objective: This study aims at comparing the possible occurrence of macrovascular & microvascular
complications in Iraqis patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus using two combinations of drugs
metformin + glibenclamide and metformin + sitagliptin.
Methodology: Sixty eight T2DM patients and 34 normal healthy individuals as control group were
enrolled in this study and categorized in to two treatment groups. The group 1 (34 patients ) received
metformin 500 mg three times daily + glibenclamide 5 mg twice daily and the group 2 (34 patients)
received metformin 500 mg three times daily + sitagliptin 100 mg once daily. The urine sample was
collected for estimation of microalbumin urea and patients' examination was made by specialist
consultant endocrinologist.
56
Results: The percentages of microalbuminurea were significantly (p<0.05) lower for group 2 patients
for 3 & 6 months of treatment (9.3%, 8.5%) respectively compared to group 1 (22.13%,18.12%)
respectively. The percentages of parasthesia, numbness and burning sensation of feet was
significantly(p<0.05) lower for group 2 patients for 3 & 6 months of treatment(16.71%,8.71%),
(20.59%,8.53) and (13.3,7.54) respectively as compared to group 1 (39.7%,34.36), (35.18,29.29)and
(37.88%,31.18%).The picture was same for postural hypotension & ischemic heart disease the
percentages were significantly (p<0.05) lower for group 2 patients for 3 & 6 months of treatment
(8.82%,7.12%)and (11.76%,8.82%) respectively as compared to group 1 (18.76%,14.65%) and
(17.65%,14.7%) respectively. The same was true for simple and proliferative retinopathy the
percentages were significantly (p<0.05) lower for group 2 patients for 3 & 6 months of treatment
(7.83%, 6.22%) and (2.82%,2.7%) respectively as compared to group 1 (15.76%,14.65%) and
(6.65%,7.71%) respectively.
Recommendations: Combination of metformin + sitagliptin significantly lower microvascular and
macrovascular complications than combination of metformin + glibenclamide.

...Show More Authors

This research deals with increasing the hardening and insulating the petroleum pipes against the conditions and erosion of different environments. So, basic material of epoxy has been mixed with Ceramic Nano Zirconia reinforcement material 35 nm with the percentages  (0,1,2,3,4,5) %, whereas the paint basis of broken petroleum pipes was used  to paint on it, then it was cut into dimensions (2 cm. × 2 cm.) and 0.3cm high. After the paint and percentages are completed, the samples were immersed into the paint. Then, the micro-hardness was checked according to Vickers method and thermal inspection of paint, which contained (Thermal conduction, thermal flux and Thermal diffusivity), the density of the painted samples was calculate

A Assessment of long distance chasing photometer (NAG-ADF-300-2) by estimating the drug atenolol with ammonium molybdate via continuous flow injection analysis: drug atenolol a
...Show More Authors

     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
