Heavy Metal Pollution and Sources in Dust from Primary Schools and Kindergartens in Ramadi City, Iraq
Authors: Radhi Athraa B. , Shartooh Sufyan M. , Al-Heety Emad A. 
Published: July 2021

The aim of this study is to determine the level of pollution with heavy metals (Cd, Cr, Cu, Ni, Pb, Zn) and their potential sources in dust samples collected from schools in Ramadi City, Iraq. The dust samples were collected from 40 primary schools and two kindergartens and analyzed by using atomic absorption spectrophotometer. The heavy metal concentrations were found to follow the order Cr > Cu > Pb > Ni > Zn > Cd. The results indicated that the concentrations of Cd, Cu, and Pb exceeded the permitted background values. The pollution level was assessed using the geo-accumulation index (Igeo) and pollution load index (PLI). The classification of dust samples according to Igeo values showed that they ranged from unpolluted for Cu, Cr, Ni, and Zn, to moderately polluted for Pb, and heavily polluted for Cd. The PLI values indicated no to moderate pollution load. The results of the comparisons of heavy metal concentrations with the background values, as well as the multivariate statistical analysis, indicated three groups of heavy metals with different sources or origins: (1) Cd and Cu (anthropogenic source: vehicle emissions); (2) Pb (mixed source); and (3) Cr, Ni, and Zn (Geogenic source). This study is the first attempt in Iraq to investigate the concentrations of heavy metals in the dust of indoor environments. This study provides the environmental protection managers and decision-makers with important information about the concentrations of heavy metals and their sources in indoor environments.

Apple vinegar has many uses that include burn and wound healing and as an antimicrobial agent against different microorganisms, but not as a solvent. Therefore, this study aimed to use commercial apple vinegar as solvent to the plants of roselle (Hibiscus sabdariffa), green tea (Camellia sinensis), and clove (Syzygium aromaticum). The effects of apple-vinegar extracts of these plants were compared with those of aqueous and ethanolic extracts against biofilm formation by Candida genus. Clove vinegar extract demonstrated antibiofilm activity against C. albicans, alone (2.4907± 0.382) or in combination with the antifungal agents fluconazole (1.689±0.33), nystatine (1.941±0.64), and clotrimazole (2.0353±0.71819). These plant extracts possessed a variable number of antimicrobial compounds, as tested by the HLPC technique. Therefore, apple vinegar was the most efficient solvent, in comparison with the other solvents used in this study, to obtain some phytochemical compounds from the tested plants that have antibiofilm activity against C. albicans.

The present study was carried out to gather information about Ethno-botanical knowledge of tribal people and ethnic races those are residing in forests of south-east Rajasthan since ages. A large number of wild and cultivated plants are being used by them to treat various ailments due to limited access to modern health care services. The study was carried out in an unexplored remote tribal area of South east region of Rajasthan to investigate and document the existing ethno-medicinal knowledge on local flora which is rich and diversified in important medicinal plants.. The ethno-medicinal knowledge in the study area is gradually heading towards extinction because the old age community members being the main bearer of this knowledge are passing away and younger generation is not interested to take it. Herbal practitioners in the area have sufficient traditional knowledge, but mostly, they are reluctant to disclose it to other community members. Hence, the current study was planned with the objectives to record the traditional knowledge of study area mainly pertaining to endangered Ethno-medicinal plants of the proposed area of study. The study was conducted through direct interviews with 35 Herbal practitioners and 240 informants from the study area. Data was collected through semi-structured questionnaires from the community members and local herbal. We presented thirty most used species by ancestral healers of Hadoti to cure different ailments and their medicinal uses.

The objective of the present study was to development of Zolmitriptan (ZMT) niosomal in situ nasal gel formulation for migraine treatment. By intranasal route delivered drug to the central nervous system (CNS) through the olfactory lobes, which bypasses the first-pass metabolism and consequently enhances the bioavailability. Noisome of ZMT were prepared by using the lipid film hydration method. Optimized niosomal formulation was used to prepare in situ gel. The developed Noisomal formulations were characterized for vesicle size, shape, zeta potential, entrapment efficiency, drug content and in-vitro diffusion study, mucoadhesive strength, permeation study, FTIR, DSC and XRD studies. The FTIR and DSC studies predicted that there was no any interaction in drug and excipients. ZMT niosomes were showed particle size, Polydispersity index (PDI), Zeta potential, % entrapment efficiency and drug content, 149nm, 0.223, -28.9, 88.16±0.8 % and 96.23±1.2% respectively. In-vitro diffusion study of niosomes shows 96.23±0.7% at 8h. The permeation rate of in situ niosomes gel and the pure drug was about 98.56% and 79.46%, respectively. XRD & DSC studies were showed that reduce crystalinity in the formulations. The SEM images of niosomes were found spherical in shape to some extent showing particle size distribution. Thus, it can be concluded that developed ZMT niosomal in situ gel formulation can be considered as a promising system for which may reduce dose requirement, improve patient acceptability and efficient targeting drug delivery to the brain through the olfactory lobe for migraine treatment.

Modern Approaches to the Elimination of Visceral Pain
Authors: Kobeliatskyi Yurii 
Published: July 2021

In modern medicine, one of the most common situations requiring emergency care is biliary or renal colic as a manifestation of abdominal pain syndrome. In both cases, smooth muscle spasm plays an important role in the pathogenesis of visceral pain syndrome. Taking into account the fact that, regardless of the chosen treatment tactics, at the first stage it is necessary to stop pain, the question arises about the choice of a drug strategy for the relief of these conditions. It used to be thought that the more intense the pain, the more indications for the prescription of narcotic drugs, which were considered reference analgesics. In recent years, the world has become embroiled in an «opioid crisis». This prompted clinicians to consider the use of drugs from other groups, namely, non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs and antispasmodics alone or in combination, which turned out to be no less effective and, often, safer in comparison with narcotic analgesics.
New opportunities for effective treatment of visceral pain are opened by the drug Neospastil® (PJSC «Pharmaceutical Company «Darnitsa»), which combines the benefits of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (ketorolac tromethamine) with antispasmodic effect of cholinolytics, ganglioblockers and phenytoin phenytoin. The drug increases the effectiveness of analgesia, as well as the control of muscle spasm.
Vaginismus: Degrees of Expression, Clinical Forms, Family Parental Environment, Characteristics of Patients and Their Sexual Partners, Reactions to the Pathology, Data of Paraclinical Studies
Authors: Kocharyan Garnik 
Published: July 2021

The article deals with and characterizes degrees of vaginismus expression, present in a number of classifications, and contains characteristics of the phobic and hysteric (conversion) forms of vaginismus. It presents a clinical case, which contains a detailed description of psychotraumatic circumstances that resulted in phobic vaginismus and supported its existence, as well as a case of penis captivus in a female patient supervised by the author of this article. Self-perception of the women, suffering from vaginismus, and their family and parental environment are described. In particular it is informed that in many women with vaginismus their fathers were extremely critical, imperious, moralistic and threatening. At the same time, they were sexually seductive with their daughters to an excessive degree. It seemed that in some specific way the daughter substituted for her mother. The fathers behaved like jealous lovers, when their daughters went around with men.
On the one hand, they were moralists, but on the other one they extremely concerned themselves with sexuality of their daughters. Also the article points out that half of the patients with vaginismus have alexithymia and discusses the issue of causal relationships between these two conditions. Data about a high rate of comorbid psychic disorders in patients with vaginismus, characteristics of sex partners of women with the above pathology, their responses to the existing disorder as well as information about their sexual dysfunctions are presented. Besides, findings of instrumental physiological examinations (electromyography – EMG) are presented; these demonstrate that women with vaginismus reveal an increased activity of muscles in their pelvic floor both at rest and during induction of vaginismus. The article also contains data, according to which vaginismus is associated with hystrionic-hysterical character traits and sexual distress.
