Sodium is the most abundant extracellular cation in the human body and is the main component of the interstitial fluid. Potassium is the major cation in the cytoplasm and contributes about 75% to the cell cations. Sodium plays a critical role in controlling blood pressure and extracellular fluid volume. It plays an essential role in the resting potential of the heart before the initiation of the action potential. sodium is essential for the transmission of nerve impulses and in muscle contractility and ultimately neuromuscular function. Potassium is an important facilitator of nerve impulse conduction. proper hydration and acid-base balances. aldosterone and other hormonal mediators control the final renal adjustments for how much sodium is retained or potassium is secreted. There is an increasing possibility of designing molecules that will rid the body of excess sodium or those that stimulate the retention of potassium.

It is possible that the abstract of the paper "Pathogenesis and Therapeutic Targets of Cytokine Storms in Bacterial Infections" encapsulates the main conclusions and revelations about the function of cytokine storms in relation to bacterial infections. It could go over the processes that cause cytokine storms, how they affect the host's immune system, and possible treatment targets that could lessen the negative consequences of these storms. A succinct description of cytokine storms and their significance in bacterial infections. A succinct description of cytokine storms and their significance in bacterial infections. Talk about possible tactics and remedies for controlling or averting cytokine storms. a synopsis of how these findings may affect clinical practice and future study.

Diabetic foot ulcers (DFUs) is one serious side effect of diabetes mellitus that raises morbidity and medical expenses. As a result of the unsatisfactory results of current therapy tactics, which frequently involve wound care, antibiotics, and surgical procedures, new therapeutic approaches are being investigated. Potential therapeutic benefits such as antibacterial, anti-inflammatory, and wound-healing actions have drawn attention to the aqueous extract of fig (Ficus carica) leaves. Fig leaf extracts may speed up wound healing by promoting collagen production, reducing oxidative stress, and boosting cell proliferation. The antibacterial qualities of the extract further help in preventing infections, which are a frequent consequence of DFUs. Even though initial results are encouraging, more clinical research is required to determine the safety and effectiveness of fig leaf aqueous extract in the management of diabetic foot ulcers. Potential application of this natural cure might provide a supplement approach to existing treatment plans, enhancing patient results and quality of life.

Objective: To assess maternal knowledge regarding fever management in children aged 5 years. Methodology: Data were collected from October 7, 2023, to March 30, 2024. A total of 102 preschoolers (ages 3-5) from Alsalam and Ibn Sina hospitals in Mosul City/Iraq were recruited using convenience sampling. This study used a Completely Randomized Design. The researcher collected data by selecting a sample of participants and intruding to answers with simple explanations without giving any answer or suggestion that could bias the results. Data was collected one day a week from 8:30 A.M. to 1:30 P.M. The time required is 15–30 minutes. In face-to-face interviews, trained interviewers gave the moms the questionnaire. Result: most mothers in this research (39.85%) were 25–33 years old. The majority, 29.80%, had elementary education, 30.2% had more than four children, and 78.75% were homemakers. Our study revealed that 52.5% of mothers struggled to regulate their body temperature, starting around 38.5˚ (28.4%). They believe armpits are the best temperature sampling locations (51.6%) and medicine is the first step (45.6%). Mothers recognize that rainy covering can be used (66.3%). For fever in children under 5 years, 70.7% of mothers visited a physician, and 60.7% chose a height-appropriate dosage.

Human Toxoplasma IgG is a serological marker of imported Toxoplasma gondii infection in humans, providing insights into immunoglobulin G (IgG) antibodies against T. gondii. Serological tests are the most widely used tools for the diagnosis of toxoplasmosis. In most laboratories, indirect serological tests such as enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays (ELISA) are performed routinely. The ELISA test is commonly used to detect anti-toxoplasma IgG or IgM antibodies. IgG-anti-Toxoplasma gondii antibodies were determined in 120 adult women, aged between 19-45 years, with no history of pregnancy, using the indirect ELISA method. Of these, 62 women had a negative test for IgG-anti-T. Gondii antibodies and 58 women were positive (48.33%). Positivity was 4 times higher for women aged between 20-29 years. The high positivity in women aged 19 years was statistically irrelevant.

Microorganisms are widespread microbes in nature, and there are many types of them such as bacteria, fungi, molds and parasites, and most of these organisms infect humans and animals and cause many health problems. In this article, we highlight the microbes that infect animals and cause diseases for them, as they cause contamination of meat and milk, in addition to infecting animals with diseases that need veterinary interference to treat them.
