Background: With the increasing demands for adult orthodontics, a growing need arises to bond attachments to porcelain surfaces. Optimal adhesion to porcelain surface should allow orthodontic treatment without bond failure but not jeopardize porcelain integrity after debonding.The present study was carried out to compare the shear bond strength of metal bracket bonded to porcelain surface prepared by two mechanical treatments and by using different etching systems (Hydrofluoric acid 9% and acidulated phosphate fluoride 1.23%). Materials and Methods: The samples were comprised of 60 models (28mm *15mm*28mm) of metal fused to porcelain (feldspathic porcelain). They were divided as the following: group I (control): the porcelain surface left u

Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is a prevalent metabolic disorder caused by impaired insulin secretion from pancreatic β-cells and insulin resistance in target tissues. Genome-wide association studies have identified over 50 genetic variants linked to T2DM, including polymorphisms associated with the disease. This study investigates the impact of the FADS1 (rs174547) polymorphism in T2DM patients compared to healthy controls and examines serum levels of omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids, as well as D5D and D6D enzyme levels and activity. This case–control study included 120 participants: 60 newly diagnosed T2DM patients and 60 apparently healthy controls matched for age, sex, and other sociodemographic factors. Polyunsaturated fatt

This research deals with the rhetoric purposes of the passive voice in the holy Quran. First, we put an introductory to the concept of the Quran language and its difference of the spoken Arabic language during the revelation period. Besides; we gave a brief about the structure passive voice form of Arabic language. Second, we explained the purposes of passive voice used in the holly Quran with sufficient examples, commentaries and clarifications about all the cases. Rhetoric purposes that we deals with are: concision, emphasize an idea, avoid using the subject because it is known and clear for all or because it is really unknown, etc. This part has contained the most important purposes for the use of passive voice in holy Quran. At the end

Background: The association between facial types and dental arches forms has considerable implications in orthodontic diagnosis and treatment planning. The aim was to establish the maxillary and mandibular dental arches width and length in skeletal and dental class II division 1 and class III malocclusion groups, find out the most frequent dental arch form and facial type and the association between them and to check the gender differences. Materials and Methods: Frontal and lateral facial photographs and maxillary and mandibular occlussal photographs for 90 iraqi subjects with age 18-25 years old (45 males and 45 females) divided equally into three groups, the 1st group with class II division 1malocclusion (overjet more than 3mm but less t

Awsaj (Lycium barbarum) is a plant belong to family Solanaceae serves as a good source of bioactive compounds like phytosterols which have many important biological activity. Literature survey available so far revealed that there was no studies about Iraqi wild Awsaj phytosterols especially B-sitosterol, there for the objective of this study was to examine the efficiency of ultrasound assisted extraction (probe and bath) as compared to the conventional (Soxhlet) extraction method for extraction of phytosterols especially B-sitosterol from fruits, leaves, stems and roots of Iraqi wild Awsaj plant. This goal was achieved by comparing the extraction mass yield, also by a quick and easy approach for identification and quantification of bioac

Four samples of the Se55S20Sb15Sn10 alloy were prepared using the melting point method. Samples B, C and D were irradiated with (6.04×1010, 12.08×1010 and 18.12×1010 (n.cm-2s -1 ) of thermal neutron beam from a neutron source (241Am-9Be) respectively, while sample A was left not irradiated. The electrical properties were assessed both before and after the radiation. All irradiated and non-irradiated samples show three conduction mechanisms, at low temperatures, electrical conductivity is achieved by electron hopping between local states near the Fermi level. At intermediate temperatures, conduction occurs by the jumping of electrons between local states at band tails. At high temperatures, electrons transfer between extended stat

The objective of this research to identify the level of job satisfaction among lecturers Iraqi universities on the Law of University Service has determined the research community in the teaching staff or lecturers University (Baghdad, Mustansiriya, Technology, Al-Nahrean) were selected the same of them with a volume of (400) teaching (male and female) to complete the research has been prepared to identify composed of (49) items distributed on four axes and Search Results indicated that the level of job satisfaction among the teaching Iraqi university courses on the law of service is characterized by the presence of positive and job satisfaction and the law in general. 

لما كان احد الأهداف الأساسية لرياض الأطفال هو المساهمة في إعداد الطفل وتنشئته تنشئة سليمة ، تحقق له النمو المتكامل ، من خلال توفير البيئة الملائمة له التي تحفز شخصيته على النمو في جميع جوانبها العقلية والاجتماعية والوجدانية والحركية ، وتلعب معلمة الروضة الدور الواضح والمتميز من خلال نقل الخبرات للأطفال والتي ترمي إلى تنمية قدراتهم واستعداداتهم وتشكيل الاتجاهات والسمات الايجابية في شخصياتهم  لذا ي

ان ترجمة الافعال التي تصف احداث جارية وقت لحظة التكلم او في حالة استمرارية تفصح عن اختلافًا جذريا بين الإسبانية والعربية بسبب طبيعة الأفعال التي تصف هذه الأحداث، منها تعقيد بعض الصيغ، خاصة باللغة العربية، وعدم التكافؤ النحوي بين اللغتين في الكثير من البنى اللغوية. بهذا المعنى ، نجد أنه في اللغة العربية ، تتم صياغة هذه الظواهر اللغوية عن طريق أفعال تسمى الأفعال الناقصة التي تختلف طبيعتها ووظيفتها داخل الجملة

סיכום לכל מדע מערך יסודות שעליו הוא עומד ועושה, בין אם ברמה של מושג ותוכן, או ברמת תכנית הלימודים והמונח , מקום בו מדעי האדם מתמודדים עם בעיות רבות המתחילות במסגרת מדע יחיד ומידת הייחודיות שלו והאינטראקציה שלו עם מדעים אחרים, דרך בעיית תכנית הלימודים, עד לבעיית המונח . בדרך זו היה צורך להתייחס למונח כמשהו רגיש, אם לא מסוכן.מדע המונח נחשב לאחד מענפי הבלשנות היישומית כיום, והוא נחשב למדע בולט, עד שהוא הפך למדע עצמאי
