Immunological Value of Periostin, Amphiregulin, IL-33 and sST2 Markers in Rhinosinusitis Patients
...Show More Authors

Background: Rhinosinusitis is an inflammatory disorder that refers to inflammation of the nose and paranasal sinuses. Recent studies show that serum IL-33, periostin, ARGE and sST2 had the role in the pathogenesis of chronic rhinosinusitis as an easy, non-invasive and readily available (biomarker) for diagnosis of chronic rhinosinusitis. We tested for correlations of IL-33, periostin, ARGE and sST2 between acute and chronic rhinosinusitis in compare to healthy people. This study aimed to Measure serum levels of periostin, IL-33, sST2, and ARGE biomarkers in patients ARS and CRS. Materials and Methods: We collected serum of 30 patients with acute rhinosinusitis, 30 with chronic rhinosinusitis, and 30 controls to examine serum levels of IL-33, periostin, ARGE, and sST2 by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay method (ELISA) Results: serum periostin had significance (p=0.001) with the chronic rhinosinusitis group and significantly higher in patients with CRSwNP(p=0.000). Serum ARGE and sST2 levels significantly higher in patients groups (p=0.01; p=0.001; p=0.03; respectively), serum sST2 levels in CRSwNP(p=0.000). No difference in serum levels of IL-33.  Conclusions: Our results show increased serum levels of periostin among chronic rhinosinusitis patients also especially with nasal polyps. Serum ARGE and sST2 levels significantly increased among patients with acute and chronic rhinosinusitis also serum sST2 levels found to be with CRSwNP, and no statistical significance was detected in serum IL-33.

The integration between target cost to value engineering green achieve competitive advantage
...Show More Authors

Recently, there has been a major trend towards environmental issues and concern for the green product because traditional products cause serious environmental impacts such as reduced resources, global warming, energy consumption, emissions and other environmental damage. Under these developments, economic units are looking for cost-effective technologies that reduce the cost of a green product that has four main dimensions: reducing energy, reducing resource consumption, preventing pollution, and using renewable energy while not compromising quality and satisfying customers in order to enhance competitive advantage.

This research will address one of the most important cost-effective green technologies, Gr

The Classical Continuous Optimal Control for Quaternary Nonlinear Parabolic Boundary Value Problems
...Show More Authors

In this paper, our purpose is to study the classical continuous optimal control (CCOC)  for quaternary nonlinear parabolic boundary value problems (QNLPBVPs). The existence and uniqueness theorem (EUTh) for the quaternary state vector solution (QSVS) of the weak form (WF) for the QNLPBVPs with a given quaternary classical continuous control vector (QCCCV) is stated and proved via the Galerkin Method (GM) and the first compactness theorem under suitable assumptions(ASSUMS). Furthermore, the continuity operator for the existence theorem of a QCCCV dominated by the QNLPBVPs is stated and proved under suitable conditions.

Different Methods for Estimating Location Parameter & Scale Parameter for Extreme Value Distribution
...Show More Authors

      In this study, different methods were used for estimating location parameter  and scale parameter for extreme value distribution, such as maximum likelihood estimation (MLE) , method of moment  estimation (ME),and approximation  estimators based on percentiles which is called white method in estimation, as the extreme value distribution is one of exponential distributions. Least squares estimation (OLS) was used, weighted least squares estimation (WLS), ridge regression estimation (Rig), and adjusted ridge regression estimation (ARig) were used. Two parameters for expected value to the percentile  as estimation for distribution f

The Approximated Solution for The Nonlinear Second Order Delay Multi-Value Problems
...Show More Authors

This paper is attempt to study the nonlinear second order delay multi-value problems. We want to say that the properties of such kind of problems are the same as the properties of those with out delay just more technically involved. Our results discuss several known properties, introduce some notations and definitions. We also give an approximate solution to the coined problems using the Galerkin's method.

Evaluation of Medication Errors in Hospitalized Patients
...Show More Authors

Objectives: Many medication errors occur in the hospital, and these can endanger patients. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the incidence of medication errors in hospitalized patients, and to categorize the most frequent types of errors, and to asses the possible measures that may prevent the occurrence of such errors.
Methods: A prospective, exploratory, and evaluative study, using direct observation method to detect medication errors in adult hospitalized patients in medical and surgical units in Baquba Teaching Hospital- Diyala-Iraq.. The files of 299 patients had been reviewed from July 2009 to September 2009, including medication orders and treatment sheets to detect existing errors. The detected errors were recorded and

Evaluation of Asprosin Hormone in Hypothyroidism Patients
...Show More Authors

Asprosin was a novel adipokine that was released by white adipose tissue. It was activated by fasting and attracted to the liver, which allowed the liver to rapidly release glucose into the bloodstream. White adipose tissue was the source of asprosin. When people go on a fast, their blood sugar levels drop, which causes levels of the hormone asprosin to rise. It does this by binding to a G-protein-coupled receptor in the liver known as OR4M1, which in turn activates a cascade that involves the G -protein-cAMP-PKA pathway. Because of this, the glucose that is stored in the liver is released.  We anticipate that by investigating the changes that occur in asprosin levels in hypothyroidism patients, we will be able to make a significant
