|a The present study was carried out to investigate the effect of globe artichoke on high fat and fructose (HF/HFr) diet on the onset of the characteristics of the the levels of growing male. Also the possible protective effects of artichoke (AK) against (HF/HFr) diet induced-metabolic disturbances. Thirty sex male albino rats were randomly assigned into 4 groups and were fed for 6 weeks the following diets group 1 basal diet, negative control (C) group 2 basal diet containing 20 g AK/kg diet (C+AK), group 3 high fat diet (15% beef tallow + 5% corn oil) combined with fructose (13% W/V) in drinking water (HF/HFr), group 4 HF/HFr diet containing 20 g AK/kg diet (HF/HFr+AK). HF/HFr diet induced elevated levels of blood glucose, serum TG, TC, LDL-C, liver, renal function and (NO) with a decrease in (HDL-C) and total antioxidant capacity compared to control. These effects were more pronounced in HF/HFr diet fed on. Globe artichoke reinstated most of the altered measured parameters. So, HF/HFr diet developed characteristics of metabolic syndrome in growing male rats. Artichoke were protected against some metabolic disturbances of HF/HFr diet. The inclusion of artichoke consumption has a beneficial effect in control and management of diabetes and diabetes associated complications with no risk of hypoglycemic effect.
|b The current study aimed to monitor the most prominent contemporary issues for women, how they are addressed within Ramadan television drama, and the extent of society members’ satisfaction with them.

As for the results of the field study, we find that most of the women - members of the sample - follow very carefully watching the Ramadan television drama, but the method of presenting and treating the issue did not appear sufficiently. From the point of view of the respondents - most of the treatments and solutions presented were superficial and unrealistic. However, most of the respondents prefer to continue producing and showing those series that are concerned with women’s issues. Because the series succeeded in simulating social reality to a large extent.
