Doppler assessment may lead to intervention that reduces the risk of fetal brain damage. Aim of thestudy: to assess the relation between ultrasonic hemodynamic Doppler indices of middle cerebral and umbilical arteries (PI, RI), growth indices to immediate neonatal outcomes (weight, head & abdominal circumference, APGAR scores at 1 and 5 minutes and neonatal unit admission) in women with mild, moderate and severe anemia during pregnancy. Present study is a clinical prospective study carried out in Al-Elwiya Maternity Teaching Hospital during (January-Jun) 2019, all anemic pregnant women presented to Obstetrical wards in hospitals for emergency cesarean section were the study population. The final sample selected was 120 pregnant women. Ultrasound Doppler velocimetry measurements like middle cerebral artery-peak systolic velocity (MCA-PSV), middle cerebral artery-pulsatility index (MCA-PI), middle cerebral artery-resistance index (MCA-PR), umbilical artery-pulsatility index (UA-PI), umbilical artery- resistance index (UA-RI), middle cerebral artery to umbilical artery- resistance index ratio (MCA/UA-RI) and middle cerebral artery to umbilical artery- pulsatility index ratio (MCA/UA-PI) were measured. Neonates with less than7had low vital activities (appearance, pulse, grimace, activity, and respiration). Mean MCA-PI of anemic pregnant women with severe anemia was 1.4ms which was significantly lower than pregnant women with mild and moderate anemia, also mean MCA/UA-PI of anemic pregnant women with severe anemia was significantly lower than mild and moderate anemia with p-value <0.001. as well as the Mean neonatal HC of anemic pregnant women with severe anemia 30 cm which was significantly lower than HC of pregnant women with mild and moderate anemia (p=0.04), also mean neonatal AC of pregnant women with mild, moderate and severe, Current study showed no statistical difference in Apgar scores between the studies group, The validity results of MCA/UA-PI ratio regarding neonatal HC of anemic pregnant women are Sensitivity (22.2%), specificity (41.7%). Severe maternal anemia is found significantly associated with abnormal Doppler study middle cerebral artery to umbilical artery pulsatility index. so Doppler middle cerebral artery to umbilical artery pulsatility index has limited validity in the prediction of neonatal outcomes in anemic pregnant women.
This study aimed to analyze functional thinking style and its contribution to learn the accuracy of block and smash serve in volleyball among university students. The sample was composed of 120 students of the College of Physical Education and Sports Sciences of the University of Baghdad (academic year 2021/2022). The statistical analyses were carried out with the statistical software SPSS and correlation analyses were conducted. It was found that functional thinking style significantly contributed to learn the accuracy of block and smash serve in volleyball among university students. Therefore, it is necessary to intensify efforts to increase the level of functional thinking among university students, by adopting acad

Show MoreBackground: The bond strength of root canal sealers to dentin and gutta-percha seems to be an important property for maintaining the stability of root canal filling, which potentially influences both leakage and root strength. The objective of this, in vitro, study was to evaluate the shear bond strength of three different endodontic sealers (Gutta-Flow, AH Plus, Apexit Plus) to dentin, in the presence and absence of the smear layer and gutta percha. Material and Methods: After slicing off the occlusal 2mm of 60 extracted human maxillary premolar teeth, the exposed dentin served as the tested surfaces; the teeth were fixed with cold cure acrylic, and were divided into two groups according to the smear layer presence, group A without smear

This study was attempted at Baghdad Teaching Hospital included 60 female’s patients with RA that were isolated into: 30 patients with dyslipidemia(G2), 30 patients without dyslipidemia(G3) and 30 individuals as control group (G1). Patients were experiencing treatment by methortexiene medication, analyzed by rheumatoid factor (RF) and erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) tests. All patients and control groups age ranged from (30-55) years. The results show an inc

God’s promises which they make as part of their Messages and by representatives of

Show MoreIron slag is a byproduct generated in huge quantities from recycled remnants of iron and steel factories; therefore, the possibility of using this waste in the removal of benzaldehyde from contaminated water offers an excellent topic in sustainability field. Results reveal that the removal efficiency was equal to 85% for the interaction of slag and water contaminated with benzaldehyde at the best operational conditions of 0.3 g/100 mL, 6, 180 min, and 250 rpm for the sorbent dosage, initial pH, agitation time, and speed, respectively with 300 mg/L initial concentration. The maximum uptake capacity of iron slag was 118.25 mg/g which was calculated by the Langmuir model. Physical sorption may be the major mechanism for the removal of

CdS are window layers influencing the photovoltaic response of CIS solar cells. The zinc doping concentration was varied from 0.05 to 0.5 wt %, zinc doping apparently increase the band gap and lowers the resistivity. All beneficial optical properties of chemically deposited CdS thin films for application as window material in heterojunction optoelectronic devices are retained. Heat treatment in air at 400 °C for 1h modify crystalline structure, optical, and electrical properties of solution growth deposited CdS : Zn films.
