Background: Disinfection of denture and soft denture liners became among the priorities for cross contamination control as well as patient's health. All the trials aimed to have maximum infection control with minimal adverse changes in the materials properties.
Materials and methods: Discs of 30x2mm were made from Coe Super Soft and Coe Soft denture liners. Every 5 specimens were immersed separately and daily in CHX, Sodium hypochlorite and chlorine dioxide, control group specimens were immersed in the distilled water. Hardness property of the experimental and control groups was evaluated by using Shore A durometer after 1, 7, 30 days.
Results: Statistical analysis indicated non significant differences when the control group was compared with every disinfectant solution regarding tested periods, while ANOVA test showed significant differences among tested solutions after every testing period. Further LSD attributed these differences to the chlorine dioxide since it is the only solution that decreases hardness value after immersion.
Conclusion: Either of the tested solutions can be used safely regarding hardness property, although CHX and Sodium hypochlorite are more recommended since their effects on the hardness property was relatively same in comparison to the control.
Aim of the Study: The aims of study were to explore the physicians' insights toward the impact of prospective implementation of the Iraqi Health Insurance Program (IHIP) on patients, healthcare providers (HCPs) and services and identify the potential challenges facing its implementation.
Method: This was a qualitative study including semi-structured face-to-face interviews with specialist physicians from different disciplines (Internal medicine, family medicine, cardiology, orthopedic, oncology, gynecology, general surgery, pediatricians and dentistry). The interview guide included open-ended questions about the impact of the IHIP on patients and HCPs at three levels: quality of services, costs, a

This study aims to identify the degree to which the first cycle teachers use different feedback patterns in the E-learning system, to identify the differences in the degree of use according to specialization, teaching experience, and in-service training in the field of classroom assessment as well as the interaction between them. The study sample consisted of (350) female teachers of the first cycle in the governmental schools in Muscat Governorate for the academic year 2020/2021. The study used a questionnaire containing four different feedback patterns: reinforcement, informative, corrective, and interpretive feedback. The psychometric properties of the questionnaire were verified in terms of validity

Graceful labeling of a graph with q edges is assigned the labels for its vertices by some integers from the set such that no two vertices received the same label, where each edge is assigned the absolute value of the difference between the labels of its end vertices and the resulting edge labeling running from 1 to inclusive. An edge labeling of a graph G is called vertex anntimagic, if all vertex weights are pairwise distinct, where the vertex weight of a vertex under an edge labeling is the sum of the label of all edges incident with that vertex. In this paper, we address the problem of finding graceful antimagic labelin for split of the star graph , graph, graph, jellyfish graph , Dragon graph , ki

Show MoreIn the current study, different concentrations of miltefosine drug, which is the first effective and safe oral treatment for visceral leishmaniasis, was evaluated against L. donovani promastigotes in comparison with pentosam drug. Direct counting microscopic assay was used to find 50% inhibitory concentration (IC50) of miltefosine and pentostam against L. donovani promastigotes. The IC50 of miltefosine drug was 45.42μg/ml, 46.76μg/ml and 36.68μg/ml after 24 hr, 48hr and 72hr respectively, In comparison with IC 50 of pentostam drug was 75.39 μg/ml after 72hr. There were significant differences (P˂0.05) between IC50 values of miltefosine and pentostam drugs from first day to third day.
