The main purpose of this study is to determine the effect of Cognitive orientation to activity living of daily occupation Performance (CO-OP) to improve IADL skills among Geriatric patients with dementia. The study was done using a quasi-experimental design and convenient sampling technique was adapted to select the patient with dementia at a mild level in the age group of 60 to 70 years. Totally thirty patients were selected and divided into 15 in the control group and 15 in the experimental group. The experimental group underwent cognitive orientation to daily occupational performance (CO-OP) to improve IADL skills and the control group underwent conventional occupational therapy to improve handwriting. Total intervention is given for 3 months consisting of 30minutes sessions for each 30 sessions, weekly 3 days. To measure IADL for old age people with dementia, Lawton Brody IADL scale has been used. The statistical analysis showed significant changes in the experimental group after CO-OP intervention. Analysis revealed that, Occupational Therapist can provide CO-OP-based activities for the geriatric condition with dementia during the instruction and treatment of IADL, which helps to conduct better results of IADL.

This study aimed to investigate the therapeutic effect of Medical Ozone(MO) in combination with insulin on reproductive hormones and histopathological changes in ovaries of rats with diabetes mellitus (DM). forty eight adult female rats were randomly divided into the following six groups (n = 8): control (A), MO (B), diabetic (C), MOtreated diabetic (E), Insulin-treated diabetic ) E), and MO, Insulin-treated diabetic (F). DM was induced by a single intraperitoneal (ip) Alloxan injection (150 mg/kg ( .after six weeks of treatment Blood sample were collected to estimate biochemical parameters glucose, serum hormones. Also, ovary samples were obtained for histological examination in diabetic untreated rats the results showed hyperglycaemia, and significant decrease in hormones profiles. While ,MO and Insulin treated rats reported an amelioration of the most toxic effect of alloxan and returned most of these parameters nearly normal. Microscopically ovaries showed definite, degeneration in the diabetic group while when use of MO and Insulin treatment in this study showed significant improves of such histological changes when compared to diabetic untreated rats. Conclusion: it was recommended that the use of the Medical Ozone with Insulin as a supplementary agent to reduce oxidative stress damage of hyperglycaemia and recommended to use variable doses and different periods of treatment to evaluate the best dose and period
