Ultrasonic fetal Doppler and growth indices and their relation to immediate neonatal outcomes in different severities of maternal anemia
...Show More Authors

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.

Performance of Different Concatenated Coding Schemes for CDMA System
...Show More Authors

In this paper different channel coding and interleaving schemes in DS/CDMA system over multipath fading channel were used. Two types of serially concatenated coding were presented. The first one composed of Reed-Solomon as outer code, convolutional code as inner code and the interleaver between the outer and inner codes and the second consist of convolutional code as outer code, interleaved in the middle and differential code as an inner code. Bit error rate performance of different schemes in multipath fading channel was analyzed and compared. Rack receiver was used in DS/CDMA receiver to combine multipath components in order to enhance the signal to noise ratio at the receiver.

Effects of Covid-19 vaccination on different semen parameters
...Show More Authors
Abstract<sec> <title>Background

The possible effects of COVID-19 vaccines on reproductive health and male fertility in particular have been discussed intensely by the scientific community and the public since their introduction during the pandemic. On news outlets and social media platforms, many claims have been raised regarding the deleterious effects of COVID-19 vaccines on sperm quality without scientific evidence. In response to this emerging conflict, we designed this study to evaluate and assess the effect of the Pfizer-BioNTech mRNA COVID-19 vaccine on male fertility represented by the semen analysis parameters.

Effect of Soil Extracts on Ability of Clinical Isolates of Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Staphylococcus aureus to Produce Biofilm in vitro
...Show More Authors

In present study the effect of soil extracts of different types of soil on ability of two clinical isolates, Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Staphylococcus aureus to form biofilm. The extract of soil was done by using sterile phosphate buffer saline and analyzed by Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopic (FTIR). Spectrophotometric method was used to check ability of the studied isolated bacteria to form biofilm on polystyrene microtiter plates. The data of FTIR showed very little difference was observed among extracts of three types of soil (soil contaminated with hydrocarbons; garden soil collected from gardens of al-jadrea, Baghdad and containers soil), but the highest difference was observed in the extract obtained from peat moss clay soil.
