The habitual use of plant alkaloids and the prevalence of myocardial diseases.
...Show More Authors

Background: The plant (Khat) contains at least 40 types of alkaloids. It has an adrenergic like effect especially on the heart one of these alkaloid is cathedulins group which has molecular height of 600- 1200mm.I/L. it is used frequently mainly at the African horn region (e.g. yemen). This plant alkaloids used by people in form of bands (each band is about 50gm, two bands 100gm and so on).
Patients and methods: Three groups of Patients have been included in this study. Group A: (30) patients with dilated cardiomyopathy, Group B: (50) patients with history of ischemic heart disease with clinical presentation of ischemic cardiomyopathy and Group C: (80) cases (50 cases of ischemic cardiomyopathy, 30 cases dilated cardiomyopathy). Used as control group to see the difference from stopping the Khat without adding any medication during the follow up peroid this was over a year with monthly checkup. The place of this was Yemen-Sannaa general hospital and Sannaa private international clinic.
Results: This study showed that the age range of patients and volunteers was similar, mean age (35- 65 years), all were male because this plant is used by most of the males and there was difficulty in discussing this problem with the female these three groups were categorized into two groups according to the amounts of all khat bands consumed. Group1: people using about 50gm of this plant and did comprise 75% of all the cases. Group2: people using about 50-150gm of this plant and comprising 25% of all the cases. This study did not show any significant correlation between the incidence of dilated cardiomyopathy  and the chronic use of this plant alkaoild, also there was no correlation between the duration of using this alkaloid and probability of getting these cardiac disorders. Stopping consuming this alkaloid did not change the clinical feature dramatically except reduction of liver enzymes elevation.
Conclusion: No significant correlation between using the plant khat and development of ischemic and non ischemic dilated cardiomyopathy.

The basics of transferring risks in international trade contracts
...Show More Authors

         The goods sold during the transport phase may be exposed to the risk of the buyer's state, whether those risks are land, sea or air, resulting in the loss of the goods in whole or in part, or damage, as if they were destroyed by the ship sinking or colliding with another or the cause of the loss or damage is due to a fire, as in the case of a spark on the goods, and the goods is a combustible material. The risk should be borne by one of the parties. To identify the responsible party for the risks, it should determine a particular moment for transferring risks. There has been a difference in legislation, whether at the national or international level, on determining the basis for risk

New record of the species Spongilla lacustris L. (Porifera)
...Show More Authors

The species Spongilla lacustris was identified for the first time in Iraq, it was found during winter 1998 in an irrigation canal within the campus of the University of Baghdad (Jadiriah), water is drawn from Tigris river. The specimens were found in water samples of sizes ranging between 5-50 cm with yellowish color . It was found in two habitats , one as attached on submerged aquatic plant Ceratophyllum sp., and the other on the canal bottom (concret material). Some physico- chemical characters were determined including conductivity ,salinity , pH, total alkalinity, total hardness, Ca ,Mg ,anddissolved oxygen. Water quality was fresh , alkaline, hard and well aerated.

Calculation the Magnetic Dipole Moments of Some Fluorine Nuclei
...Show More Authors

The magnetic dipole moments and the root mean square radius have been calculated some the Fluorine (A= 17, 19, 20, 21) isotopes based on the sd-shell model using universal sd-shell interaction A (USDA). All studied isotopes are composed of 16O nucleus that is considered as an inert core and the other valence particles are moving over the sd-shell model space within 1d5/2, 2s1/2 and 1d3/2 orbits. The configuration of mixing shell model with limiting number of orbitals in the model space outside the inert core fail to reproduce the measured magnetic dipole moments. Therefore, and for the purpose of enhancing the calculations, the discarded space has been included the core polarization effect through the effective g-factors. The harmonic os

EFL Student- Teachers' Perception in the Culture of Thinking
...Show More Authors

Many studies have recommended implying the skills and strategies of creative thinking, critical thinking, and reflective thinking in EFLT curriculum to overcome EFL teaching-learning process difficulties. It is really necessary to make EFL teachers aware of the importance of cultural thinking and have a high perception of its forces. Culture of thinking consists of eight cultural forces in every learning situation; it helps to shape the group's cultural dynamic. These forces are expectations, language, time, modeling, opportunities, routines, interactions, and environment. This study aims to investigate EFL student-teachers’ perceptions of cultural thinking.

Electrical stimulation for the treatment of Knee joint osteoarthritis
...Show More Authors

Abstract 20 patients with osteoarthritis of the knee joint were treated by electrical stimulation in the form of 6 sessions every other day each sessions of diphase fixe (DF) for 4 minutes followed by rest for 4 minutes then treated with a monophase fixe (MF) for 2 minutes. By clinical & statistical analysis ( P value < 0.05) we conclude that the electrical stimulation is effective as one method in the treatment of osteoarthritis.

Every mental action has a clear approach resulting from a sequence of thinking towards the goal to be achieved, and in order that the legal rule - to be developed - finds its acceptance by the highest degree criminal courts, and in order that it is adopted by the legislator, the criminal judge should adopt a certain methodology that matches his work. The developed judge is the one who keeps trying to harmonize the text with the new reality, and by doing this he may oppose the direction of the higher courts, but he convinces them through all the mental procedures and processes to show a “truth” on which the best solutions can be built.
