who are working in the morning and night shifts . Data were collected by using the technique of self –
administrative report was consisted of four parts: ' socio-demographic characteristics for the nurses, factors
that are related to mobile use among the nurses , phantom vibration and ringing syndrome scale and job –
related stress scale . The validity of the questionnaire was obtained through a panel of experts and the
internal consistency reliability was achieved through the application of Alpha Correlation Coefficient (r=0.76)
which was statistically acceptable.
Results: The finding of the study revealed that phantom vibration and ringing syndrome are experienced
moderately among nurses evidenced by significant level among all items of the scale, there were no
significant association between phantom vibration \ ringing syndrome and job- related stress among nurses.

BACKGROUND: HLA-B27 can effect clinical presentation and course of ankylosing spondylitis. Different detection techniques of HLA-B27 are available with variable sensitivities and specificities. OBJECTIVE: To compare serologic and molecular diagnostic techniques of detecting HLA-B27 status and to correlate it with some clinical variables among ankylosing spondylitis patients. PATIENTS AND METHODS: A cross-sectional study was conducted on 83 Iraqi patients with ankylosing spondylitis. Clinical and laboratory evaluations were reported. HLA-B27 status was determined in all patients by real-time PCR using HLA-B27 RealFast™ kit; ELISA method was used as well to detect soluble serum HLA-B27 antigens using Human Leukocyte Antigen® kit. RESULTS:

The aim of the research is to find out the effect of applying classroom assessment techniques (CATs) on both mathematical and logical thinking among fourth-grade scientific students. In pursuit of the research objectives, the experimental method was used, and the quasi-experimental design was used for two equivalent groups, one control group taught in the traditional way and the other experimental taught according to the techniques of classroom structural evaluation. The research sample consisted of (44) students from the fourth scientific grade who were intentionally chosen after ensuring their equivalence in several factors, most notably chronologi-cal age and the level of mathematics, and they were distributed equally among the t
