Evaluation of Youth's Health Risk Behaviors in Baghdad City
...Show More Authors

Objective(s): To evaluate youth's health risk behaviors in Baghdad City and to determine the relationship between such behaviors and the youth's demographic characteristics of age, gender and grade. Methodology: A descriptive study, using the evaluation approach, is carried out to evaluate youth's health risk behaviors in Baghdad City for the period of January 26th 2016 to May 20th 2016. A non-probability "purposive" sample of (160) University students is selected for the purpose of the study from four groups of colleges (medical, engineering, sciences, and education) and it is equally distributed of (40) student from group of colleges. The sample is consisted of (50%) males and (50%) females. A questionnaire is constructed for the purpose of the study. It is comprised of eight parts which deal with youth's health risk behaviors of unintentional injuries, tobacco use, drinking alcohol, drug use, sexual behavior, unhealthy dietary behavior, inadequate physical activity, and health related behavior. Internal consistency reliability and content validity are determined for the study instrument through pilot study. Data are collected through the utilization of the questionnaire and the application of the structured interview technique as means of data collection. Data are analyzed through the application of the descriptive statistical data analysis approach which includes frequency, percent, total score and Cronbach alpha correlation coefficient. Results: The study depicts that most of the students have experienced health risk behaviors of unhealthy dietary behavior, inadequate physical activity and health related behavior regardless of their colleges' classification. Male students have been exposed to health risk behaviors of unintentional injuries, tobacco use, drinking alcohol, drug use and sexual behavior more than female students. Recommendations: The study recommends that Youth Health Risk Behaviors Program should be designed and implemented to present these students with all the information for the prevention and control of such behaviors. Further research is needed to determine whether low grades lead to health risk behaviors or health risk behaviors lead to low grades, or some other factors lead to both of these problems.

Wake potential of swift ion in amorphous carbon target
...Show More Authors

The wake potential and wake phenomena for swift proton in an amorphous carbon target were studied by utilising various dielectric function formalisms, including the Drude dielectric function, the Drude–Lorentz dielectric function and quantum dielectric function. The Drude model results exhibited a damped oscillatory behaviour in the longitudinal direction behind the projectile; the pattern of these oscillations decreases exponentially in the transverse direction. In addition, the wake potential extends slightly ahead of the projectile which also depends on the proton coordinate and velocity. The effect of electron binding on the wake potential, characterised by the ratio to 0.1, has been studied alongside the Drude–Lorentz dielectric

Review of epidemiological Leishmania Ron. Ross, 1903 in Iraq
...Show More Authors

Abstract Leishmania species are intracellular protozoan parasites that spend a portion of their life cycle in the midgut of sand flies and the remainder in the tissues of mammals. These parasites, which cause a class of human disorders known as leishmaniasis, live mostly in macrophages, where they multiply and survive by employing a variety of defense mechanisms against the oxidative stress and acidity generated by these immune cells. To help control their reaction to heat stress, they also produce heat shock proteins. Furthermore, the promastigote form has a glycocalyx that is necessary for colonizing the gut wall of the sand fly and completing its life cycle. Consequently, a variety of virulence factors contribute to the parasite's pathog

Following the Example of Prophet (PBUH) in Reciting Qur'an
...Show More Authors

The Almighty Allah has addressed His followers by advising them to follow the example of the prophet (PBUH). Allah says:  (INDEED IN THE MESSENGER OF ALLAH YOU HAVE A GOOD EXAMPLE TO FOLLOW). So, He was a true and everlasting example for the people to follow and imitate in all aspects of life. Knowledge and learning, especially Qura'nic knowledge, are among the priorities.

The present study is concerned with how to follow the Prophet example (PBUH) in the field of Qur'an reciting. It aims at showing His instructions on Qur'an reciting, and how He was followed by His Companions. The present study falls into an introduction and four sections. Section One deals with the commands given by Allah to follow His prophet. Second Two

Recruitment of Teachers for Cooperative Education in Educational Institutions
...Show More Authors

The study of cooperative education is important not only for researchers but also for those interested in studying educational methods, such as university professors, teachers in schools, and all educational institutions. This is because of its effectiveness in teaching students, developing their skills, developing their ideas and employing them in the study and finding appropriate solutions to the questions posed by the teacher. It also helps in instilling a spirit of cooperation among the students by dividing them into groups to achieve the desired goals. The aim of the study is to clarify how important it is for teachers to use cooperative education in addressing the educational, social and psychological aspects when teaching stu

Comparison of Petrophysical Properties Measurement Methods in Sandston Rocks
...Show More Authors

This paper displays a survey about the laboratory routine core analysis study on ten sandstone core samples taken from Zubair Reservoir/West Quarna Oil Field. The Petrophysical properties of rock as porosity, permeability, grain's size, roundness and sorting, type of mineral and volumes of shales inside the samples were tested by many apparatus in the Petroleum Technology Department/ University of Technology such as OFITE BLP-530 Gas Porosimeter, PERG-200TM Gas Permeameter and liquid Permeameter, GeoSpec2 apparatus (NMR method), Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) and OFITE Spectral Gamma Ray Logger apparatus. By comparing all the results of porosity and permeability measured by these instruments, it is clear a significant vari

CUBIC INTUITIONISTIC STRUCTURES OF A SEMIGROUP IN KU-ALGEBRA
...Show More Authors

An intuitionistic fuzzy set was exhibited by Atanassov in 1986 as a generalization of the fuzzy set. So, we introduce cubic intuitionistic structures on a KU-semigroup as a generalization of the fuzzy set of a KU-semigroup. A cubic intuitionistic k-ideal and some related properties are introduced. Also, a few characterizations of a cubic intuitionistic k-ideal are discussed and new cubic intuitionistic fuzzy sets in a KU-semigroup are defined.

...Show More Authors

A simple, accurate and rapid method for separation and determination of most commonly usedinsecticides in Iraq [thiamethoxam (Thi), imidacloprid (Imi), indoxacarb (Ind), and abamectin (Aba)] ispresented. The separation was performed by gradient reversed-phase high performance liquidchromatography on a C18 stationary phase column. The method was developed and validated. The-1mobile phase was a mixture of acetonitrile and water using gradient flow. The flow rate was 1.0 mL min .The optimum temperature of separation was 25 ºC. The detection was performed at multiple wavelengths.The analysis time was up to 10.5 minutes with retention times of 3.221, 3.854, 6.385, and 9.452 min for-1the studied insecticides. The linearity was in the range of 0.
