Pephigus vulgaris is a recurrent life threatening disease. Its basic treatment is systemic steroids, after treating the first attack of the disease by systemic steroids we start to reduce the dose of the steroids gradually. During this reduction the desease may flare up, this recurrence is routinely treated by increasing the dose of the steroids again to control the disease, this study was made to compare the benefits of tetracycline in controlling the recurrence of pemphigus vulgaris with the routinely used way which is elevating the dose of prednisolone.

Background& Objective: pemphigus vulgaris is a life threatening relapsing disease, the first line in its treatment is systemic steroids, and due to the high rate of side effects caused by systemic steroids in pemphigus vulgaris patients ,some immun osuppressant drugs have been introduced as an adjuvant steroid sparing agents , and one of these immunosuppressants is azathioprine, which is the most used drug by therapists, but this use was due to experience and not due to strict studies , this research studies the relationship between azathioprine and relapse in pemphigus vulgaris patients during the prednisolone reduction period. Materials & Methods: 70 pemphigus vulgaris patients have been studied, from the patients of the dermatology university hospital during the period between 1/8/2008 -29/5/2011 (the first year for collecting the sample and the rest for follow-up) they have been divided into 2 groups. The first: were treated with prednisolone plus azathioprine (30 patients ), the second : were treated with prednisolone alone (40 patients ).and after the control of the disease the dose of prednisolone was reduced gradually ,till it was stopped, and patients were observed for relapse. Results: there was no meaningful statistical difference between the two groups in the terms of relapse, as giving azathioprine did not reduce the relapse rate, and did not reduce the prednisolone dose needed to prevent relapse. Conclusion: in this study no use of azathioprine in preventing relapse in pemphigus vulgaris patients, so we advise for more studies to confirm that, and to give more attention during its prescription.
pemphigus vulgaris is a life threatening relapsing disease, the first line in its treatment is systemic steroids, and due to the high rate of side effects caused by systemic steroids in pemphigus vulgaris patients, some immunosuppressant drugs have been introduced as an adjuvant steroid sparing agents, and one of these immunosuppressants is methotrexate, and in spite of the lack of its use in pemphigus vulgaris, a few studies have shown an encouraging results of its use, and have advised to carry out more studies about it as an immunosuppressant which has been omitted from usage in pemphigus vulgaris for a long time.
Experiment was conducted on 160 fertilized egg sterile, distributed in four groups of 40 eggs in each of them, eggs incubation in the hatchery for 12 h, and then go out and inject eggs experimental Groups (1-2-3) with a solution of tetracycline under the embryo disk.
This research aims to reduce the possible consumption in CMOS digital circuit type and to develop new methods in this area and get the results of a new process applicable in the field of the development of integrated electronic devices of high inte gration VLSI, has been in this study the possible reduction of consumer dynamic by Reduction Of switching Activit where the researcher changed the architecture of digital circuit on the possible consuming, and she used different combinations of the circuit. the researcher got good results in a manner using the Matlab simulation program where she got reduction of 01%, which helps us to achieve high standards in the design of integrated circuits.
Due to it`s several properties of Trypsin as an active enzyme in treating wounds, the aim of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of this material with traditional treatments in treating dry socket. Methods:132 patients (20-65 years old) partic ipated in this study. The patient were distributed randomly into two groups. The first group (group 1) was treated with Trypsin whereas the other (group 2) was treated with traditional technique . Patients were monitored, to asses healing process, after 24 hours, 48 hourse, and after 1 week. Results: 43,9% of group 1 and 10,6% of group 2 had no pain P<0,05,wereas 81,8% of group 1 and 43,9% of group 2 didn`t present dry socket P<0,05. Concerning infection ,7 cases of group 1 and 11 cases of group 2 had infection of soft tissue P<0,05. Conclusions :Pain, dry socket, and soft tissue infection was less in casese treated with Trypsin comparing with cases treated with traditional technique.
