Athletics in general, and in particular the 400-meter freestyle event, requires special physical preparationfor the parts of the body that greatly participate in the skillful performance so that the running processcan be performed in the correct manner and with minimal effort by matching the muscles of the legs,distributing the exerted force during the run and increasing its quantities, from this basis, we mustfocus on the strength component, because strength has a good effect in the final achievement of the400-meter freestyle, as modern training methods must be used here to improve the strength component,and among these methods is the complex training whose basis is the mixing of weight exercises withplyometric exercises where weight exercises are stimulated muscles well and with plyometric exercises,allowing contractions moving in a circle (lengthening - shortening), therefore, the importance of theresearch lies in providing data and information within the complex training to know its effect on theforce distinguished by speed and the quantities of strength for specific distances and the achievementof 400 free meters, by applying these double exercises together and because they have an effect on thedevelopment of the most important types of muscle capacity, either the problem of research and throughthe follow-up of the researcher for many training units for 400-meter freestyle runners in Kerbala, theresearchers noted the lack of trainers’ use of modern training methods that would raise the level of themuscular capabilities of runners and their reliance on traditional training methods, and the importanceof research is to perform exercises in a complex training method and to identify the effect of temporarytraining on strength distinguished by speed and strength quantities for specific distances and to achieve400 free meters.

Aim of the Study: Evaluate the relation of serum level of AGEs and MDA with the development ofdiabetic nephropathy in patient with type two diabetes mellitus and to evaluate the possible mechanismby which AGEs and MDA induce nephrotic complication in type two diabetic patients.Patients and Methods: This case-control study was carried out in Erbil city from the period startedfrom 1st of December 2020 to the end of March 2021. The study included 62 type 2 diabetic patients(31 patients nephropathy and 31 patients T2DM without nephropathy), their age between 40– 69 years,these patients who attended Rizgari General Hospital. The study also included 28 healthy controlindividuals defended as subjects who apparently haven’t any chronic diseases. Blood was collectedfrom each for determination of HbA1c level , AGE3 and MDA and RBS.Results: The study revealed that, the highest mean of RBS and HbA1c was recorded in DN groupfollowed by diabetic non-nephropathy and the control group. The study revealed that, the highest meanof UACR was recorded in DN group (258.6±28.56 mg/gm) followed by diabetic non-nephropathy(35.6±11.95 mg/gm) and the control group (20.39±1.72 mg/gm) (P<0.001). The study showed asignificant positive of AGEs and MDA with each of duration of DM, blood sugar, HbA1c and UACR.Conclusions: This study showed elevated of AGEs, MDA and Poor glycemic control were associatedwith diabetic nephropathy.

The study was conducted in Kirkuk city-Iraq from of February 2018 to September 2018. The numberof chronic kidney disease patients under study were 60 patients whose ages were between 40-70 yearsold. These patients admitted to Kirkuk general hospital (hemodialysis unit). The control group whowere matched to the patients studied, included 30 healthy blood donor and their ages were between 30-75 years old. Blood samples were collected for detection of BK polyomavirus DNA by real time-PCR.The study showed that the highest rate of BK polyomavirus DNA occurrence were recorded in patientswith chronic kidney disease when compared with control group (51.66% versus 3.33%) (P: <0.01).The study showed that the highest mean level of IL-6 was recorded in patients with chronic kidneydisease comparing with the control group (78.42 v.s. 3.40 ng/ml). The result was highly significant. Thepresent study demonstrated that the highest mean level of IL-6 was found in prostates cancer patientswho were positive to BK polyomavirus DNA comparing with BK polyomavirus DNA negative (52.54versus 25.88 ng/ml)It was concluded that BK polyomavirus was frequently detected in chronic kidney disease patients andcould play a relevant role in the development and progression of human hemodialysis

Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) are key enzymes responsible for matrix degradation, derived frompolymorphonuclear leukocytes, during the early stages of periodontitis. There is plenty of evidencefor the role of matrix metalloproteinases in the destructive processes of periodontal disease as a viabletarget in early diagnosis and chemotherapeutic approach. The aim of this study was to determine thelevels of salivary matrix metalloproteinase-9 (MMP-9) in patients with periodontitis and healthycontrols and the role of gene polymorphisms in the aetiology of the disease. Levels of MMP-9 insaliva was determined by enzyme linked immune sorbent assay (ELISA) technique in healthy subjectswithout any periodontal disease (n = 45) and in the patients with diagnosed periodontitis (n = 45).Gene Amplification, gel electrophoresis and genotyping were also carried out on MMP-9 gene. TheMMP-9-1562C/T appeared in three genotypes: CC, CT and TT, allele specific gene polymorphism wasamplified by PCR technique. The distribution of different genotypes in patients and controls for each ofMMP-9-1562C/T polymorphism was in a good accordance with Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium (HWE).Genotypes in both dominant and recessive models were non-significantly associated with periodontitis.Significantly higher salivary MMP-9 was observed in cases of periodontitis compared to healthy adults(p = 0.043). Salivary MMP-9 may serve as a biomarker of periodontal disease monitoring and aid inthe early detection of periodontitis.
