Objective: The aim: This study aims to investigate some of the immunological parameters related to Helicobacter pylori patients, including: interleukin (IL-17), cluster of differentiation 4 (CD4), macrophage inhibitory migration factor (MIF), nuclear factor kappa B (NF-kB).

Patients And Methods: Materials and methods: The immunological parameters were investigated by using ELISA technology, and compared with the healthy individuals (control).

Results: Results: The level of IL-17A in the serum showed a significant increase (p < 0.

ASSOCIATION OF SOME IMMUNOLOGICAL BIOMARKERS WITH RHEUMATOID ARTHRITIS PATIENTS IN THI-QAR PROVINCE.

Objective: The aim: The aim of this research is to evaluate some immunological biomarkers in cases of Rheumatoid arthritis and to verify their correlation with activity of disease among the population of Thi-Qar province.

Patients And Methods: Matherials and methods: This study included 45 cases of rheumatoid arthritis and 45 healthy subjects. All cases underwent complete history taking, thor¬ough clinical examination, and laboratory tests including erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR), C-reactive protein (CRP), Anti-citrulline antibody (Anti-CCP) and rheumatoid factor (RF).

Immunological markers in type 1 diabetes mellitus in Thi-Qar province, southern Iraq.

Type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1D) is a chronic autoimmune illness defined as insulin insufficiency resulting from the autoimmune breakdown of pancreatic beta cells producing insulin in the islets of Langerhans. Biomarkers are markers of physiological or pathological processes that are normal or abnormal, playing a crucial function in clinical evaluation, prognosis, and therapy response monitoring. This study aimed to investigate some biomarkers associated with T1D and examine the association between glutamic acid carboxylase (GADA) antibody and islet antigen-2 autoantibody (IA-2A) for β-cell stress and death in patients with T1D.

Immunological parameters of recurrent miscarriages among women in Thi-Qar province.

Recurrent miscarriage (RM) is defined as the loss of pregnancy three or more consecutive times in the first and second trimester, which in some cases occurs due to immune abnormalities. This study aimed to assess some immunological parameters in women with recurrent miscarriages, including the level of antiphospholipid antibody (APA), anticardiolipin (ACA), antinuclear antibody (ANA), complement C3 and C4, and interleukine-3 (IL-3). We included 100 patients together with 100 healthy women as a control.
