Risk Factors for Fistula Development Following Palatoplasty
...Show More Authors
Purpose:

The aim of this study is to assess the influence of some risks factors on the fistula development after palatoplasty to improve the outcome of the patients

Patients and Methods:

A total of 48 patients (the males were 22, The females were 26) were included in this study. All the patients were examined weekly for the first month postoperatively to assess any breakdown in the wound by inspection and by asking the parents for any nasal regurgitation during fluids feeding.

Results:

The incidence of palatal fistula development after primary palatoplasty in this study was 12.5% (6\48). Occurrence of fistula was unrelated to the gender (P >0.5), but it was directly related to the age of patients (r = 0.98) and to the size of the cleft (r = 1). Fistula had occurred most likely in cases of Baradach 2 flap palatoplasty (83.3%) this was occurred especially when it was used for isolated cleft palate, but it was not associated with the type of the cleft (P >0.4). The surgeons experience and the use of prophylactic antibiotic were associated with the development of the fistula (P = 0.01 for both).

Conclusion:

knowledge of the expected risk factors for fistula after different protocols of palatoplasty can improve the experience of the surgeon and improve the outcome on the patients.

An Adaptive Integral Sliding Mode Control for Disturbed Servo Motor Systems
...Show More Authors

Abstract-Servo motors are important parts of industry automation due to their several advantages such as cost and energy efficiency, simple design, and flexibility. However, the position control of the servo motor is a difficult task because of different factors of external disturbances, nonlinearities, and uncertainties. To tackle these challenges, an adaptive integral sliding mode control (AISMC) is proposed, in which a novel bidirectional adaptive law is constructed to reduce the control chattering. The proposed control has three steps to be designed. Firstly, a full-order integral sliding manifold is designed to improve the servo motor position tracking performance, in which the reaching phase is eliminated to achieve the invariance of

User generated content and formal data sources for integrating geospatial data
...Show More Authors

Today, problems of spatial data integration have been further complicated by the rapid development in communication technologies and the increasing amount of available data sources on the World Wide Web. Thus, web-based geospatial data sources can be managed by different communities and the data themselves can vary in respect to quality, coverage, and purpose. Integrating such multiple geospatial datasets remains a challenge for geospatial data consumers. This paper concentrates on the integration of geometric and classification schemes for official data, such as Ordnance Survey (OS) national mapping data, with volunteered geographic information (VGI) data, such as the data derived from the OpenStreetMap (OSM) project. Useful descriptions o

CHOOSING THE RIGHT CHAOTIC MAP FOR IMAGE ENCRYPTION: A DETAILED EXAMINATION
...Show More Authors

This article investigates how an appropriate chaotic map (Logistic, Tent, Henon, Sine...) should be selected taking into consideration its advantages and disadvantages in regard to a picture encipherment. Does the selection of an appropriate map depend on the image properties? The proposed system shows relevant properties of the image influence in the evaluation process of the selected chaotic map. The first chapter discusses the main principles of chaos theory, its applicability to image encryption including various sorts of chaotic maps and their math. Also this research explores the factors that determine security and efficiency of such a map. Hence the approach presents practical standpoint to the extent that certain chaos maps will bec

Histological variety analysis for pleomorphic adenoma in salivary glands: Retrospective study
...Show More Authors

Pleomorphic adenoma (PA) is the most frequent benign epithelial neoplasm of salivary glands, displaying a remarkable degree of morphological variety. The aim of the study is to illustrate the clinicopathological characteristics of PA with particular emphases on epithelial cell morphology and mesenchymal elements. Materials and Methods: A total of 132 PA collected between 2002 and 2017 were recruited from Al Shahid Ghazi Al Hariri Hospital and the Department of Oral Pathology, College of Dentistry, Baghdad University, Baghdad, Iraq, and analyzed for their demographic and histopathological features. All data were analyzed using descriptive statistics. A slightly higher incidence of PA was detected in females (52.3%) compared to male subject

Targeting Smoking Triggers: A Nurse-led Intervention for Tobacco Smoking Cessation
...Show More Authors

Background: Nursing interventions tailored to the smoking triggers in patients with non-communicable chronic diseases are essential. However, these interventions are scant due to the nature of factors associated with smoking cessation and the poor understanding of the effect of nurse-led intervention in Iraq.Purpose: This study aimed to determine the dominant smoking triggers and examine the effects of a tailored nursing intervention on smoking behavior in patients with non-communicable chronic diseases.Methods: Convenience samples of 128 patients with non-communicable chronic diseases, male and female patients, who were 18-70 years old, were recruited in this quasi-experimental, randomized comparative trial in the outpatient clinic
