Objectives: To determine the contributing risk factors to adult nephrolithiasis patients.
Methodology: A descriptive study was conducted to determine the contributing risk factors to
Adults nephrolithiasis starting from December 2007 to September 2008. A purposive "nonprobability"
sample of (100) patients with nephrolithiasis was selected of those who were
admitted to the hospitals, attending the Urology Consultation Clinic and Extracorporeal Shock
Wave Lithotripsy Department. The study instrument consists of two parts. The first part is
related to the patients' demographic variables and the second part is constructed to serve the
purpose of the study. The total number of items in the questionnaire was (85) ones.
Content Validity of the instrument was determined through the use of a panel of (12) expert in
the field of the study. Reliability of the instrument was estimated through the pilot study. Data
were analyzed through descriptive data analysis and the inferential data analysis approaches.
A graph
is said to be singular if and only if its adjacency matrix is singular. A graph
is said to be bipartite graph if and only if we can write its vertex set as
, and each edge has exactly one end point in
and other end point in
. In this work, we will use graphic permutation to find the determinant of adjacency matrix of bipartite graph. After that, we will determine the conditions that the bipartite graph is singular or non-singular.
The present study introduces the concept of J-pure submodules as a generalization of pure submodules. We study some of its basic properties and by using this concept we define the class of J-regular modules, where an R-module M is called J-regular module if every submodule of M is J-pure submodule. Many results about this concept are proved
Cesarean section, which was introduced into clinical practice as a lifesaving procedure for both the mother and the baby, is one of the most common surgeries performed in modern obstetrics. Formerly it was performed in interest of the mother; currently it is frequently done for fetal indication. As other procedures of some complexity, its use follows the health care inequity pattern of the world; underuse in low income setting, and adequate or even unnecessary use in middle and high income setting (1).
The first modern cesarean section was performed by German gynecologist Ferdinand Adolf Kehrer in 1881. Cesarean section is often performed when a vaginal delivery would put the baby's or mother's life or health at risk. Many are also pe

The reclamation of makeup water is studied in terms of breakthrough time (i.e., the leakage of the cations). Makeup water was subjected to lab-scale ion exchangers of two types: strong acid cation and weak base anion exchanger. The experimental investigation was directed to study the ion exchanger performance in terms of four different parameters (i.e., copper concentration, total dissolved solids (TDS), feed rate and bed depth). Box-Wilson composite rotatable design was adopted in designing the experiments. Breakthrough times of the effluent stream are measured in terms of copper concentration of 2 to 25 ppm, TDS concentration of 250 to 1250 ppm, feed rate of 0.38 to 5.34 l/h and bed depth of 5 to 70 cm.

diagnosis of acute appendicitis.
Method : A total of 115 cases of clinically suspected appendicitis were prospectively examined by grey scale US and doppler US. Five patients were excluded from the study because of
difficulty to perform the graded compression technique. In the other 115 patients who were included in the study population , US appendiceal and periappendiceal signs, as well as doppler US findings were evaluated. Definitive diagnosis was established at surgery and histopathological examination in 62 patients (59
In this paper, we discuss the difference between classical and nonclassical symmetries. In addition, we found the non-classical symmetry of the Benjamin Bona Mahony Equation (BBM). Finally, we found a new exact solution to a Benjamin Bona Mahony Equation (BBM) using nonclassical symmetry.
The research deals with a new type of high-performance concrete with improved physical properties, which was prepared by using metal additives minutes (Metakaolin) and by studing their impact on the properties of mortar and concrete high-performance through destructive and non destructive tests. This type of concrete is used broadly in public buildings and in other structures . The research involved a number of experiments such as finding the activity index of burned at a temperature of 750 º C according to the standard ( ASTM C-311/03), as well as casting models for the cubic mortar mixtures and concrete containers at different rates of metakaolin ranging between (5% - 20%) as an added part to the cement mix to get a high- compressive
