Schiff bases ligand () was produced by condensing 4-aminobenzohydrazide with N-(4-chlorophenyl)-2-(4-formylphenoxy)acetamide. Cobalt (II), nickel (II), and copper (II) acetate and ligand are reacted to form 1:1 complexes. By using electronic spectra, magnetic susceptibility measurements, infrared data from H NMR, and XRD studies, the ligand and its metal complexes have been characterized.

It is prevalent in hot and humid regions, and its clinical manifestations may mimic inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), malignancy, and tuberculosis (TB). This often results in the disease being missed or incorrectly diagnosed.

We aim to demonstrate the effect of coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) on left ventricle (LV) systolic function and to identify the predictors that adversely lead to postoperative poor outcome.
Result: This is a cross-sectional prospective study; we included 110 patients with left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) < 50% who underwent CABG with a mean age of 56.
