Effect of Maternal Age on the Mother and Neonatal health in Baghdad Maternity Hospitals
...Show More Authors

Objectives: to compare health of mothers and neonatal among age groups, to find out the correlation between
age groups and mother and neonatal health.
Methodology: A descriptive study was carried out at delivery rooms of three teaching hospitals in Baghdad city
from Feb. 28th through May. 28th
, 2013. A purposive (non-probability) sample of 300 laboring women was selected
from delivery rooms categorized into three groups, group 1 (≤19) years, group 2 their age between (20-35) years
old and group 3 their age (≥35) years. The data were collected through the use of constructing questionnaire, an
interview technique with mothers and reviewing their medical records as means of data collection; The
questionnaire consist of 3 parts: (1) demographic data (2) health of mothers during pregnancy (pregnancy
complications) (3) neonate health status. The validity of the study questionnaire was determined through a panel
of experts and the reliability of the study questionnaire was determine by the application of pilot study.
Descriptive statistical analysis procedure (frequencies and percentages) and inferential data analysis procedure
(chi-square, P-value, split- half approach and Cronbach's Alpha correlation coefficients) were applied for data
analysis.
Results: the finding of the study indicated that the highest percentages of all the study groups were primary school
graduates, urban and housewives. More than half of mothers in group 1 (teenage mothers) and group 2 (20-35)
years were related to their husband, while the highest percentages of mothers in group 3 (advanced maternal age)
were not related to their husband. The highest percentages of complications present in group 1 (teenage mothers)
were anemia, urinary tract infection, multiple pregnancy, Oligohydramnios, poly-hydramnios, intra uterine growth
retardation, Post-term labor, low Apgar score, low birth weight, congenital anomalies, respiratory distrees
syndrome, meconium aspiration syndrome and neonatal death. The highest percentages of complications present
in group 3 (advanced maternal age) were pregnancy induced hypertension, gestational diabetes, antepartum
haemorrhage, pre-term labor, premature rupture of membrane and macrosomia. There is a statistical significant
correlation between age groups and hypertension and preterm, Apgar score, neonatal weight and respiratory
distress syndrome.
Recommendations: Care providers need to be aware about the increasing of obstetrical and neonatal health
complications in the extremities of maternal age (teenage and advanced maternal age) and adjust obstetrical and
neonatal management protocols to ensure optimal maternal and neonatal health

The role of strategic management accounting and its impact on the competitive advantage in Jordanian industrial companies
...Show More Authors

This study aimed to recognize and understand the concept of strategic management accounting (SMA) and how it's the effect on the competitive advantage for industrial companies in Jordan. The study's importance arises due to the lack of Arab studies that dealt with this topic, in addition to the important and vital role of strategic management accounting on companies that represent the artery of the decision-making process, and to identify the benefits associated with SMA technology. The necessary data were collected through the literature review and theoretical study of the references that relevant to the study subject, in addition to a questionnaire developed for this purpose, the study used (124) out of (250) questionnaires tha

Social Graphic Design and its Reflections on The Practices of The Saudi Designer in Designing Awareness Posters
...Show More Authors

The concept of social graphic design is one of the most critical areas that highlight the designer's knowledge of social responsibility by employing design skills in community awareness. This study focused on defining social graphic design, the meaning, practices, and strategies for designing awareness posters. This study reviewed two examples of awareness posters that reflect the Saudi designer's practices. The results summarized that social graphic design is a concept not taught directly but gained from permanent practice in designing awareness posters that interact with community issues. The designer's understanding of his social events and their sensing in the visual form of a poster reflects the designer's social awareness. Social g

An Investigation Study of Tool Geometry in Single Point Incremental Forming (SPIF) and their effect on Residual Stresses Using ANOVA Model
...Show More Authors

Incremental forming is a flexible sheet metal forming process which is performed by utilizing simple tools to locally deform a sheet of metal along a predefined tool path without using of dies. This work presents the single point incremental forming process for producing pyramid geometry and studies the effect of tool geometry, tool diameter, and spindle speed on the residual stresses. The residual stresses were measured by ORIONRKS 6000 test measuring instrument. This instrument was used with four angles of (0º,15º,30º, and 45º) and the average value of residual stresses was determined, the value of the residual stress in the original blanks was (10.626 MPa). The X-ray diffraction technology was used to measure the residual stresses

The makers of sedition in light of Chapters (Al-Baqarah and Yusuf)/An objective study
...Show More Authors

The makers of strife exist in every era and time. They differ in how these temptations are created and the methods used in doing so. In our modern era, they are more; This is due to the presence of information technology and its easy availability at their fingertips, as well as the spread of social networking sites, which are rapidly spreading among ignorant groups and groups that are deficient in their use. Which led the makers of sedition to exploit these matters and create various temptations and spread them among peoples and societies. Today, we cannot predict the future of humanity in light of this huge amount of temptation. What the Holy Qur’an mentioned about the types of temptations in its noble verses and their embodiment in seve

Investigating the Influence of Precursor Concentration on the Photodegradation of Methylene Blue using Biosynthesized ZnO from Pometia pinnata Leaf Extracts
...Show More Authors

The ZnO nanoparticles were synthesized at various precursor concentrations i.e. 0.05, 0.1, and 0.5 M by biosynthesis method based on Pometia pinnata Leaf Extracts. Initial nanoparticle concentration influenced the optical bandgap, shape, and structure of nanoparticles. The photodegradation process was carried out under UV illumination. The efficiency of MB degradation was determined by measuring the decrease in MB concentration and by analyzing the optical absorption at 663 nm recorded by UV-Vis spectroscopy. Results showed that the biosynthesized ZnO nanoparticles exhibited efficient photodegradation of MB, with a maximum degradation rate of 80% after 90 minutes of exposure to UV-C light. The study highlights the potential of Pometia pi

Study of Aerodynamic Surface Roughness for Baghdad City Using Signal-Level Measurements
...Show More Authors

Roughness length is one of the key variables in micrometeorological studies and environmental studies in regards to describing development of cities and urban environments. By utilizing the three dimensions ultrasonic anemometer installed at Mustansiriyah university, we determined the rate of the height of the rough elements (trees, buildings and bridges) to the surrounding area of the university for a radius of 1 km. After this, we calculated the zero-plane displacement length of eight sections and calculated the length of surface roughness. The results proved that the ranges of the variables above are ZH (9.2-13.8) m, Zd (4.3-8.1) m and Zo (0.24-0.48) m.
