Background: Salmonellosis is enteric disease caused by Salmonella typhi (S.typhi). Humans are infected with it and it is transmitted through contaminated foods.Objective: The aim of the current study is to compare between two Interleukins (IL-1 and IL-2) levels in patients serum infected with S.typhi. Patients and methods: A case control was conducted in our university hospital. The study included 60 patients with Salmonellosis and 30 healthy individuals as controls. ELISA technique was used to determine the concentrations of IL-1 and IL-2 in the serum of all individuals with acute and chronic typhoid based on a positive blood culture and IgM/IgG test. Results: A total of 33 patients with acute infection and 27 with chronic infection have been diagnosed. IL-1 and IL-2 in acute and chronic infections were higher than in the control group (P values <0.0001 and <0.032, respectively). Conclusions: Humans with Salmonellosis have higher serum levels of IL-1 and IL-2 depending on the severity and duration of the illness and may be used as a diagnosis marker.

Background: The allergic diseases are considered as an abnormal immune system response to harmless environmental stimuli usually proteins. Objective: This study aimed to examine the allergen profile in Iraqi children age range 1 to 10 years old. Methods: A cross-sectional observational study was conducted during the period from January 2017 to February 2019. Allergic children age ranged from 1 to 10 years old. They were collected from many clinics in Al-Najaf City, Iraq. The pediatric penal kit Polycheck® -Diagnostics was used to reveal to the sensitivity of 20 different allergens. Results:The number and percentage of allergic children to each allergen were recorded. The inhalant allergens had higher percentage as follow: Mugwort pollen 52%, D. farinae 45%, both Birch and Timothy grass pollens 40%. While the higher percentages of ingested allergens were in Peanut and Apple allergens 31.67%, Carrot 26.67%, Potato's allergens 21.67%, Soya bean 20% and Wheat flour allergens 18.33%. While the egg white showed no allergic sensitivity in all samples of children but the allergic to egg yolk allergens were 8.33%. Conclusion:Approximately 93% of the children were allergic to at least one inhalant. Studying the rates of allergens in Iraqi environment and its related allergens is an important point in the planning for prevention and control of allergy.

Pulmonary tuberculosis (PTB) is still a global problem and serious epidemic disease and leads to a high death rate especially in developing countries, partially due to problematic ecological situation. The aim of this study to verifying the numbers and percentages of individuals infected with PTB in Iraqi Kurdistan Governorates 2019. A statistical–retrospective study was carried out to investigate the numbers and percentages of individuals infected with PTB in three provinces in Iraqi Kurdistan; Erbil, Sulaymaniyah and Duhok from the 1st January to 31st December 2019. All essential details of annual data for PTB patients were obtained from the National Center of PTB in Baghdad Governorate, Iraq. A total of 639 cases were recorded in 2019; 295 male (46.1%) and 344 female (53.9%). Erbil Governorate had the highest number of infections with 302 cases (47.2%) followed by Sulaymaniyah and Duhok with 214 (33.5%) and 123 (19.3%) respectively, the most cases were recorded in 2nd quarter with 170 cases (26.6%). The highest frequency of PTB was recorded in age groups 65–80 with 123 cases (19.2%) while the lowest was 5–14 with 20 cases (3.1%). Pulmonary TB remains a threat in Iraqi Kurdistan and about half of cases have been recorded in Erbil Governorate. The highest frequency of PTB was in females than males and the older age groups were the most infected. Therefore, we need more precautionary measures to control this disease.
