The aim of this study was to investigate the risk factors that predict the mortalities of critical COVID-19 patients admitted to the intensive care unit in Sulaimani in 2021. Methods: This is an observational retrospective study of critically ill patients with COVID-19 pneumonia admitted to the main intensive care unit of the Sulaimani government between June and December 2020. Overall baseline characteristics are presented based on the patient's survivors versus non-survivors. Mann-Whitney U test was used to compare whether there is a difference between survivors and non-survivors for the independent basic characteristics of the patients. Binary logistic regression was used to identify the predicted factors of survivors. Results: A total of 220 patients were admitted to the intensive care unit, of whom 167 died, with a case fatality rate of 75.9%. The risk factors that predicted mortality in critical COVID-19 patients were an increasing age of more than 59 years (P-value = 0.008), comorbidities (P-value = 0.038), and a lack of use of antiviral drugs (P-value = 0.011). Whereas the factors significantly predicted a reduction in mortality were increasing oxygen saturation (P-value <0.001), systolic blood pressure (P-value = 0.002), non-invasive mechanical ventilation (facemask) (P-value = 0.001), and continuous positive airway pressure (P-value = 0.003). Conclusion: The risk factors that predicted mortality in critical COVID-19 patients were increasing age, comorbidities, and a lack of use of antiviral drugs. Whereas increasing oxygen saturation, systolic blood pressure, non-invasive mechanical ventilation (facemask), and continuous positive airway pressure significantly predicted a reduction in the likelihood of death.","PeriodicalId":53383,"journal":{"name":"Zanco Journal of Medical Sciences","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-04-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140660953","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The objectives of this study were to assess the effects of adding Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) to fat grafting for facial rejuvenationin terms of longevity of the results, complications, and satisfaction rates. Methods: The thigh or lower abdomen was chosen as a donor site for fat graft harvesting using a 10-cc syringe, then washed with saline, processed by low-speed centrifugation, and then inserted into the face with a 1 mm blunt-ended cannula at several points. on several tissue planes. A total of 369 cases treated with autologous fat graft with or without PRP for facial rejuvenation were included in this comparative study. The results were assessed clinically and followed for up to 5 years. Data analysis was done using the statistical package for social science SPSS V. 23. Results: The commonest minor complication was fat absorption (27% in group 1 and 11.9% in group 2), no major complications were reported. Adding PRP to the fat graft decreased the need for second session fat grafting from 31.2% to 15.3%. By adding PRP to fat graft, there was a significant increase in the number of highly satisfied patients (from 63.5% to 80.1%).

An intracellular pathogen could cause severe complications. Diabetes is a significant component that enhances the host's vulnerability and risk of acquiring a variety of infections. The objectives of the current study are to reveal the relationships between toxoplasmosis and type 2 diabetes in addition to find out the most specific gene for the detection of Toxoplasma gondii. Methods: In this case-control study, 201 blood samples were taken from type 2 diabetic women with 100 healthy women as control groups to detect anti-Toxoplasma IgG and IgM antibodies by performing latex agglutination test and Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay (ELISA). Detection of B1 and RE genes of Toxoplasma gondii among seropositive individuals by nested PCR and evaluation of leptin hormone in both groups were performed. Results: Among 201 type 2 diabetic cases, 64 cases (32.0%) were seropositive for anti-Toxoplasma antibodies, with 15 samples (15%) among 100 healthy control group via latex agglutination test. ELISA performed for only latex positive samples and the results were 64 ((32%) IgG+, (0%) IgM+) patient group (15.0% IgG+, 0.0% IgM+) healthy group with the P-value 0.0001 which is highly significant. The results of nested PCR were (46.88%) (IgG+, IgM-) and (1.56%) (IgG+, IgM-) for B1 and RE genes, respectively. Increased levels of leptin hormone were observed in patients in compare to healthy controls. Conclusion: Both Diabetes and the elderly increase the chance of vulnerability to get toxoplasmosis. Diabetes, toxoplasmosis and high body mass index results in elevation of leptin hormone that leads to diabetes.
