...Show More Authors

Introduction: Sleep, an essential therapeutic part of human physiology, Sleep problems was widespread among students in medical colleges, and excessive stress and the pressure of holding grades can affect their sleep quality. The relationship between sleep, stress and cognition/learning is far more complex than perceived. Material and Method: Cross sectional study was conducted in Al-Kindy College of Medicine, during the period from (2022 to 2023) academic year. The electronic questionnaire was distributed among all students. Analysis of data was carried out using IBM SPSS version 24. Results: A total of (500) medical students' online surveys were analyzed from AL-Kindy College of Medicine, The highest number of participants was from the fifth year with (114) students, and percentage of (22.8%), whereas the lowest number of participants was from the second year with (68) students (13.6%). There were about (258) male with percentage of (51.6%), and (242) female with percentage of (48.4) participated in this study. The majority of students (160) with percentage of (32%) were sleeping (6) hours/day, and a minority (1) student with percentage of (0.2%) had 3 hours sleeping/day. There was a significant relationship between sleep hours and sleep deprivation like, about (297) students, with prevalence of (59.4%) agreed that sleeplessness negatively affected their academic performance, while (41) students with percentage of (8.2%) disagreed. According to the effect of stress, the prevalence of sleep disorders among undergraduate medical students was shown that (169) students with percentage of (33.8%), were always stressed, while (34) students with percentage of (6.8 %), were rarely affected by stress. According to the causes of stress, the majority of students (198), with percentage of (39.6%), were had too much study, while (1) student, with percentage of (0.2%), was had no significant reason. Other (174) students, with percentage of (34.8%), were under stress because of exams and (127) students, with percentage of (25.4%), were under stress because of life events. Conclusions: Sleep disorders are common among medical students. The study also reveals that there is a strong, positive and significant relationship between stress levels sources of stress and sleep deprivation which is associated with poor academic performance. Recommendations: Keeping bedtime and wake time consistent, including on weekends. Regular activity helps promote a good night's sleep. Also schedule exercise at least a few hours before bedtime and avoid stimulating activities before bedtime. Further research is required in this field.

Reducing Energy Consumption in Iraqi Campuses with Passive Building Strategies: A Case Study at Al-Khwarizmi College of Engineering
...Show More Authors

University campuses in Iraq are substantial energy consumers, with consumption increasing significantly during periods of high temperatures, underscoring the necessity to enhance their energy performance. Energy simulation tools offer valuable insights into evaluating and improving the energy efficiency of buildings. This study focuses on simulating passive architectural design for three selected buildings at Al-Khwarizmi College of Engineering (AKCOE) to examine the effectiveness of their cooling systems. DesignBuilder software was employed, and climatic data for a year in Baghdad was collected to assess the influence of passive architectural strategies on the thermal performance of the targeted buildings. The simulations revealed that the

Biochemical Study on the Impact of Radiation-induced Oxidative Stress on Radiographers in the X-ray and CT-scan Departments
...Show More Authors

The consequences of ionizing radiation-induced oxidative stress on radiographers in X-ray and CT-scan departments utilizing several biochemical were analyzed. The study found highly considerable discrepancies in the interplay between radiation levels and gender in terms of mean Malondialdehyde (MAD), Vitamin D3 (Vit.D3), Triiodothyronine (T3), Thyroxine (T4), and High-Density Lipoprotein (HDL), but not Thyroid Stimulating Hormone (TSH), cholesterol, triglyceride (TG) and Low-Density Lipoprotein (LDL). The findings indicated that malondialdehyde is a useful biomarker for assessing oxidative stress in radiographers with exposure to ionizing radiation.
