الخلفية: العقدية المقيحة المعروفة أيضًا باسم ""(GAS) هي احدى مسببات الأمراض ذات الأهمية الصحية العامة، حيث تصيب 18.1 مليون شخص في جميع أنحاء العالم وتقتل 500000 شخص كل عام. الهدف: حددت هذه المراجعة المقالات المنشورة حول عوامل الخطر واستراتيجيات الوقاية والسيطرة لأمراض المكورات العقدية. المواد والأساليب: تم إجراء بحث منهجي لتحديد الأوراق المنشورة على قواعد البيانات الإلكترونية Web of Science و PubMed و Scopus و Google Scholar في محاولة لتوفير معلومات أساسية حول عدوى Streptococcus ، والمخاطر المحتملة لانتشارها ، واستراتيجيات العلاج والوقاية . النتائج: الطرق الأكثر شيوعًا لانتقال العقديه القيحيه هي من خلال الرذاذ التنفسي ، الآفات الجلدية التي تسببها العقديه القيحيه ملامسة الأشياء أو الأجهزة المصابة. هناك طريقة أخرى محتملة وهي انتقال العدوى عن طريق الغذاء ولكن هناك حاجة إلى مزيد من البحث لتحديد مسار العدوى هذا. تم العثور على المجتمعات الأصلية ، وتلك ذات الوضع الاجتماعي والاقتصادي المنخفض في جميع أنحاء العالم معرضة بشكل خاص لأمراض المكورات العقدية ، وكذلك الأطفال وكبار السن والذين يعانون من ضعف في جهاز المناعة. هذه المجموعات معرضة للإصابة بعدوى العقديه القيحيه ومضاعفاتها مع ارتفاع معدلات العدوى في المؤسسات التعليمية والمستشفيات والازدحام والزيادة المستمرة في الاتصال الاجتماعي. أهمية تحسين الظروف المعيشية والنظافة الشخصية واليدين هي إحدى التقنيات للوقاية من عدوى العقديه القيحيه مع التركيز على طرق مكافحة العدوى بدقة أكبر. الاستنتاج: يجب أن تستهدف تدابير المنع والمكافحةللعدوى بالعقديه القيحيه مع تحسين الظروف المعيشية والنظافة الشخصية غسل اليدين باستمرار ايضا يجب التأكيد على الالتزام بممارسات الوقاية من العدوى ومكافحتها في الاشخاص الذين يملكون ظروف مريضيه عالية الخطورة .
This systematic review aimed to investigate the relation between orthodontic treatment (OT) and the incidence of the gingival black triangle (GBT) after completing treatment with a fixed orthodontic appliance, as well as the associated risk factors and the level of alveolar bone. Electronic and hand searches were conducted in three electronic databases for relevant articles published up to March 2022. Retrieved articles went through a two-step screening procedure, and the risk of bias (RoB) was assessed by the Joanna Briggs Institute checklists. The incidence of GBT after OT was set as the primary outcome, while the secondary outcomes were the risk factors associated with GBT and alveolar bone loss following OT. Out of 421 papers, 5

Here, the effect of monosodium glutamate (MSG) on human health and the risks to the health of its frequent use in the short term was addressed and the long term was evaluated according to the studies of several researchers specializing in this regard. Monosodium glutamate (MSG) is known as one of the most popular food additives that classified as a flavor enhancer. Parts of the evidence were reviewed from the literature explaining its effect on immune system cells in addition to metabolic disorders by exposing individuals to obesity and what is known as metabolic syndrome, as w

Bacterial infections showed (41.11%), and infection with Trichomonas vaginalis was (2.03%). Ten isolates of C. albicans were chosen randomly for farther study which include two virulence factors tendency of adhesion wich showed a percentage of (52%) to(32%) , and the ability to produce phospholipaze enzyme and it’s activity which showed (50%) of the isolates have the ability to produce the enzyme in different degrees .
While hepatitis viruses A–E are established, emerging evidence points to additional, novel viral hepatitis agents. The torqueteno virus (TTV) has garnered interest due to its prevalence among patients with hepatitis, suggesting potential hepatotropism.
This study was conducted to detect TTV antigens in individuals infected with chronic hepatitis B (HBV) and/or C (HCV) using molecular diagnostics and to explore any associations between TTV presence and demographic characteristics of the cohort.
Background: Alternative natural therapy by plants extracts had opened wide door for the use of natural products as an alternative therapy instead of many antibiotics and drugs , which had many harmful side effects.Also, an increased interest has been centered on the industrial wastes, especially plant raw materials which contain phenols (e.g. Pomegranate peel and Bay leaves) which is a sources of natural antioxidants ,which are on the contrary of synthetic antioxidants that had restrict use due to their health risks , carcinogenesis and toxicity .

AIM: Because there have been few studies on the efficacy of such courses, we aimed to recognize recent graduates’ perceptions, benefits, and factors influencing the quality of hospital training courses for pharmacy students. METHODS: A qualitative study using a phenomenology approach was conducted in 2022 and included several hospitals in Baghdad, Iraq, using in-depth face-to-face individual-based semi-structured interviews. Until saturation, a convenient sample of recently graduated pharmacists was included. The obtained data were analyzed using a thematic content analysis approach

Coronavirus has affected many people around the world and caused an increase in the number of hospitalized patients and deaths. The prediction factor may help the physician to classify whether the patient needs more medical attention to decrease mortality and worsening of symptoms. We aimed to study the possible relationship between C reactive protein level and the severity of symptoms and its effect on the prognosis of the disease. And determine patients who require closer respiratory monitoring and more aggressive supportive therapies to avoid poor prognosis. The data was gathered using medical record data, the patient's medical history, and the onset of symptoms, as well as a blood sample to test the
