Background: Obesity is becoming the healthcare epidemic world wide.Obesity is associated with reduced life expectancy, increased morbidity and mortality, and greater healthcare costs.Bariatric surgery is the only effective treatment for morbid obesity and is gaining increasing popularity. There has been a steady rise in the numbers and types of bariatric operations done worldwide in recent years butnon of prove to be ideal .Animal studies and use of animal models are significant element in the evolution of medical knowledge and the use of animals as a model for bariatric surgery is of importance to study the mechanisms of these operationsa and also help to develop new technique in management of obesity.Objectives:Study of effects of sleeve gastrectomy as bariatric surgery procedures on weight of dietary induced obese rats (DIO).Methods:Eighteen adult rats with diet induced obesity (DIO) divided into two groups, the first (n=9) group exposed to sleeve gasterectomy (SG)under general anesthesia , the second(n=9) is the sham (control) group. Postoperative care of the animals done as required and the weight of the rats were measured weekly for 6 weeks .Results:. Follow up for 6 weeks post-operative . Four rats from SG group were died: two in the first day , second and 6th post operative day .Postmortem done with evidence of gastric leak in two of them. Two sham operated rats were died. The dead rats were cancelled from the study when body weight calculated. Average weight were 425gram and 420gram for SG and Sham respectively before surgery. Both groups experience some weight loss in the first week after surgery while the SG group start losing more weight , while the sham group are starting to maintain its normal weight until the end of the experiment.Conclusions:. Sleeve Gastrectomy as a bariatric procedure are successfully reduce the weight of DIO rats . Development of animal model for bariatric procedure is of great importance to test the effects of different bariatric procedures on the weight, and translate these procedures on human.
Background: Platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) is a simple, low cost and minimally invasive way to obtain a natural concentration of autologous growth factors and is currently being widely experimented in different fields of medicine for its ability to aid the regeneration of tissue with a low healing potential. Fields of application are sports medicine, orthopedics, dentistry, dermatology, ophthalmology, plastic and maxillofacial surgery, etc. The rationale for using platelets in so many fields for the treatment of different tissues is because PLTs constitute a reservoir of critical GFs and cytokines, which may govern and regulate the tissue healing process that is quite similar in all kinds of tissues. Materials and Methods: Screw titanium implan

Show MoreThis research reviews studies that identify the habitats of the redbelly tilapia, Coptodon zillii, in Iraq, the environmental conditions favorable to this species distribution and proliferation, as well as its economic and social significance as a food source. Additonally, the study examines its effects on biodiversity through competition with native fish species for resources, as well as its role as reservoirs of pathogens, its adverse effect on human health due to the tendency to retain oil crude inside the tissues, and its impact on environmental and water quality by increasing water turbidity. Finally, the review exhibits recommendations for strategies to mitigate its detrimental effects on biodiversity as well as environment.
