نبارك للطالبة "شهد القيسي" إحدى أعضاء فريقنا مناقشتها مشروع تخرجها وإتمام متطلبات تخرجها من كلية العلوم - بكالويورس أحياء ومختبرات، ونتمى لها مزيداً من التقدم والنجاح!🎉🎉

Congrats to our team member Shahd R Alqaissi for discussing her graduation project, we wish her more success! 🎉🎉
Her project is about “The relationship between selected bioelements associated with testosterone deficiency syndrome in aging men”.

Here’s some info about her project:
“Physical and emotional dysfunctions, including depression, have been linked to abnormal concentrations of bioelements (magnesium, manganese, chromium, copper, and zinc).
Also, there is a relationship between the concentrations of selected bioelements and the incidence of depressive symptoms in men aged 50 years and older with a concurrent testosterone deficiency syndrome.
Blood samples were taken from 314 men, and the average age of the group was 61.36± 6.38 years. For the biochemical analysis of magnesium (Mg), manganese (Mn), chromium (Cr), copper (Cu), and zinc (Zn), a spectrophotometric method was employed.
Total testosterone (TT), free testosterone (FT), estradiol (E2), and dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate (DHEAS) levels were measured by ELISA.
Moreover, the severity of depressive symptoms in participants was assessed using questionnaires: the Beck Depression Inventory (BDI-Ia), as well as the Androgen Deficiency in Aging Male (ADAM) questionnaire.
Diagnosis of testosterone deficiency syndrome and emotional disturbances characterized by depressive symptoms were made in 28.7% and 49.3%, respectively, of all participants.
The analysis of the TDS group revealed a significant relationship between the levels of chromium (R = 0.185, p = 0.021) and manganese (R =0.225, p = 0.005) and the prevalence of depression.
This may suggest a link between these bioelements and emotional disorders in older men with identified testosterone deficiency that manifest as depressive symptoms.”
