Background:
B -Natriuretic peptide is a neurohormone normally synthesized in ventricular heart muscle and known to be released in situations when left ventricular wall stress increases, it
has a variety of physiological functions on its own, that are thought to be compensatory.
Objective:
The aim of this study was to apply B-natriuretic peptide (BNP) as a biomarker and to correlate its levels with the severity of heart failure using certain selected parameters as
indicators of cardiac function.
Patients and Methods
Forty Six (46) patients with provisional diagnosis of heart failure were chosen for this work, thirty six (36) males and ten (10) Females, their age ranged between 33 and 80 Years.

     The research aimed to identify the extent to which the media offices in the ministries depend on the website of the Iraqi Council of Ministers as a source of information. Such goal includes a set of sub-goals: Knowing the reasons for media offices' reliance on the information provided by the Cabinet's website; and revealing the benefit derived from relying on the Cabinet's website.

The researcher used the survey method to screen and comprehend the extent to which the media offices in the ministries depend on the website of the Iraqi Council of Ministers as a source of information.

The mechanism of comprehensive account of the limits of research wa

The human intellect and his ability to complex thinking is a characteristic that Allah has given him above all his creatures. Islam came to encourage the utilization of the mind by thought, contemplation and consideration of the kingdom of Allah, His signs and religion, and He gave us a set of legislation that preserves the mind and protects it from falling into error or deviation.

This research deals with one of the most important components of civilizations in general and Islamic civilization in particular, which is thinking and what is related to it. It is an essential and influential component in man's dealing with life around him and the for

One of the most essential components of asphalt pavements is the filler. It serves two purposes. First, this fine-grained material (diameter less than 0.075 mm) improves the cohesiveness of aggregate with bitumen. Second, produce a dense mixture by filling the voids between the particles. Aluminum dross (AD), which is a by-product of aluminum re-melting, is formed all over the world. This material causes damage to humans and the environment; stockpiling AD in landfills is not the best solution. This research studies the possibility of replacing part of the conventional filler with aluminum dross. Three percent of dross was used, 10, 20, and 30% by filler weight. The MarshallMix design method was adopted to obtain the op

Chromene is considered a fused pyran ring with a benzene ring, which is found in many plants and is part of many important compounds such as anthocyanidins, anthocyanins, catechins, and flavanones. These compounds are included under the headings "flavonoids" and "iso-flavonoids." These compounds are well known as bioactive molecules with wide medicinal uses. According to these pharmacokinetic characteristics, many researchers are giving more attention to this type of compound and its derivatives. Many chromene derivatives have been synthesized to study their biological effects for the treatment of many diseases. Furthermore, the researcher displayed wide interest in finding new methods for synthesizing chromene derivatives. These methods

The research focused on important legal issues that have been formulated in questions such as: What is the concept of immunity and what is its purpose? , In other words immunity from whom? In what circumstances?

We also ask ,Does sovereign immunity principle , apply as absolute doctrine  or have limitations been dealt with in national jurisdiction? On the question of what are the grounds for the distinction and partnership between the concept of sovereign immunity and the concept of diplomatic immunity?

Has sovereign immunity been affected by the pursuit of grave and terrorist violations, in particular, contrary to what international practices have been in the past as a sanctuary in which states and officials are pro

Background: Atherosclerosis is a diffuse disease process, being present in one vascular bed predicts its presence in the others. Ankle –brachial pressure index (ABI) is a non invasive test proved to be sensitive and specific in detecting and assessing the severity of peripheral arterial disease.
Patients and Methods: One hundred fifty patients (150) were enrolled in this study, from January - June 2007; all were referred to the Iraqi Centre for Heart Diseases (I.C.H.D.) for further evaluation, with request for further assessment of CAD or lower extremity peripheral arterial disease. Clinical data and physical examination were performed; ABI was calculated by measurement of systolic pressure on both ankl

Abstract

The pressures of life have become a tangible phenomenon in all societies in varying degrees. This disparity determines several factors, including the nature of societies, the level of their urbanization, the intensity of interaction, the intensity of conflict, and the increasing rate of change in those societies. many people name The modern era in which we live the “era of pressures", where one of the most important of these changes is the “new Coronavirus 19-COVID”, which has spread widely throughout the world, as the pandemic, has affected all aspects of daily life, including the educational and academic process, academic activities have been suspended in universities, which caused sudden change

PM3 and DFT quantum mechanical calculations were employed to give further
insight into the inhibition efficiency of the newly prepared cefotaxime amic acid
derivative. The calculated physical properties and quantum chemical parameters
correlated to the inhibition efficiency such as EHOMO (highest occupied molecular
orbital energy), ELUMO (lowest unoccupied molecular orbital energy), the energy gap
(ΔE(HOMO-LUMO)), hardness (η), softness (S), dipole moment (μ), electron affinity
(EA), ionization potential (IE) and active site absorption..…etc., all studied and
discussed at equilibrium geometry in the gas phase and at its right symmetry (C1).
Experimentally the newly prepared cefotaxime derivative could be abso

     The radio drama is considered to be one of the arts that is discovered after a long period of theater's discovery. Initially , it was the broad framework of the theater's work when radio was broadcasting the shows on the huge theaters. This beginning encouraged many of the radio specialists to correlate plays with radio and make a novice and distinctive type of art. Thus, radio drama made its first step including the following   ( plays, short and long series drama as well as other types of radio arts). Because of the above mentioned , the researcher is stimulating  to study directing techniques to process the radio drama script ( Khata'a play as a sample).

The first chapter deals with the
