Non Surgical Closure of Secundum Atrial Septal Defect by Percutaneous Transcatheter Amplatzer Septal Occluder
...Show More Authors

Background:
To assess the feasibility and early results of non-surgical transcatheter closure of atrial septal detect (ASD) using the Ampiatzer septal Occluder (ASO).
Patients and Methods:
From June 2003 to June 2005, i75 patients with ASD secundum, age range 3- 65 years, female to male ratio of 3:2. were evaluated for transcatheter closure using ASO at Ibn Al-
Bitar Hospital for Cardiac Surgery. Transthoracic echocardiography was performed in al patients using standard suhxyphoid, apical, parasternal and suprasternal views. In all
patients, the procedure was done under general anesthesia.
Results:
Based on transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) Findings, 60 patients (33.7%) did not meet the criteria for transcatheter closure (40 females and 20 males). One hundred
Fifteen patients were found to have ASDs suitable for device closure. The device was successfully deployed in allpatients except 11 of them (104/115) (90.4%).
In 11 cases with failure of ASO deployment, 6 patients had small floppy inferior rims which were not able to hold the device after the Minnesota wegeal maneuver. One adult
patient with a large ASD secundum and second degree AV block developed complete heart block during the procedure before the deployment of the occluder. One of them dislodged
into the left atrium (LA) immediately after deployment because of a very small inferior rim and the other one dislodged into the LA because of descrewing of the cable after multiple
manipulations. Both of them were referred for surgery. An other one of the 11 patients had developed a thrombus in the LA during the procedure because of delay in giving heparin
after placing the guide wire in the left upper pulmonary vein. In the last patient, the procedure was abandoned and the occluder recaptured into the sheath before release from
the cable because the TEE showed that the LA disc encroached on the mitral valve causing mitral stenosis.
Conclusion:
The transcatheter closure of secundum ASD is safe, efficacious with a very low rate of early and Sate complications. It is becoming an increasingly popular alternative to surgical
closure.

Colostomy closure in pediatric age group A comparative study between Single and double layer anestomosis
...Show More Authors

This prospective study involved one hundred patients with colostomies admitted at the Central Pediatric Teaching Hospital for colostomy closure over the period of two years (Jan.2000-
Jan2002).
Patients were divided in to two groups according to the technique of colostomy closure. In the first group, the closure was done by single layer of interrupted non-absorbable suture material; in the  second group closure was done by double layer suturing technique. All patients were prepared by the same conventional method including fluid diet for three days
followed by two days washing enemas before operation with antimicrobial prophylaxis agents. Of these one hundred patients;(48) presented as cases of Hirschspr

Effect of Topical Application of Flavanoids Extract of Hibiscus Sabdariffa on Experimentally Induced Bone Defect
...Show More Authors

Background: The restoration of bone continuity and bone union are complex processes, and their success is determined by the effectiveness of osteosynthesis. The use of plants for healing purposes predates human history and forms the source of current modern medicine The aim of this study: It was histological evaluation of effect of topical application of flavonoid on healing of induced bone defect in rabbit tibia. Material and method: Twenty-four Adult New Zealand rabbits used in this study, they were divided into four groups for the healing periods (3days, 1,2, and 4weeks) Two holes were induced in rabbit tibia one on the left side and has been left to heal normally as control. While, the other hole made on the right side filled with flavo

Pairwise Lower Separation Axioms in C ̌ech Fuzzy Soft Bi-Closure Spaces
...Show More Authors

The idea of ech fuzzy soft bi-closure space ( bicsp) is a new one, and its basic features are defined and studied in [1]. In this paper, separation axioms, namely pairwise, , pairwise semi-(respectively, pairwise pseudo and pairwise Uryshon) - fs bicsp's are introduced and studied in both ech fuzzy soft bi-closure space and their induced fuzzy soft bitopological spaces. It is shown that hereditary property is satisfied for , with respect to ech fuzzy soft bi-closure space but for other mentioned types of separations axioms, hereditary property satisfies for closed subspaces of ech fuzzy soft bi-closure space.

The Legal Value of Indirect Clauses Restricting the Provisions of Guaranteeing Latent Defect in Sales
...Show More Authors

The study addresses a set of indirect clauses that exempt from guaranteeing latent defect in sale contracts, in particular contracts between professional and consumer or normal contractor. The analytical comparative method has been adopted in this study through tackling the viewpoints of scholars and judiciary, and analyzing these in the framework of the Mejeleh, applicable in Palestine, along with the civil codes of Egypt, Jordan and Qatar. The study seeks to derive the legal value of the contractual clauses under consideration, and to indicate to what extent the legislator and judiciary contributed in achieving the economic balance of the contract between the two parties.

Comparison among the Synthesis of Some Azomethine Derivatives by Classical and Non-classical Methods
...Show More Authors

In this time, most researchers toward about preparation of compounds according to green chemistry. This research describes the preparation of 2-fluoro-5-(substituted benzylideneamino) benzonitrile under reflux and microwave methods. Six azomethine compounds (B1-6) were synthesized by two methods under reflux and assisted microwave with the comparison between the two methods. Reflux method was prepared of azomethine (B1-6) by reaction of 5-amino-2-fluorobenzonitrile with some aldehyde derivatives with (50–100) mL of absolute ethanol and some quantity of GAA and time is limited between (2–5) hours with a yield between (60–70) percent with recrystallization for appropriate solvents. But the microwave-assisted method was synthesized of co

Surgical Treatment Outcome of Salivary Gland Tumors
...Show More Authors

Background: Salivary gland neoplasms constitute a group of heterogeneous lesions with complex clinicopathologic characteristics and distinct biological behavior. Numerous studies have suggested geographical variation, therefore the aims of this study were to analyze the characteristics of salivary gland neoplasms in two Iraqi centers and to analyze the postoperative complications that are encountered after surgical treatment of these tumors. Materials and Methods: A retrospective study of the patients who were treated for major and minor epithelial salivary gland tumors was conducted. The analyzed data included; demographic information (age and gender), the site of the tumor, the clinical manifestations, the histological type of the tumo

Prediction of Compressive Strength of Reinforced Concrete Structural Elements by Using Combined Non-Destructive Tests
...Show More Authors

This research is devoted to investigate relationship between both Ultrasonic Pulse Velocity and Rebound Number (Hammer Test) with cube compressive strength and also to study the effect of steel reinforcement on these relationships.
A study was carried out on 32 scale model reinforced concrete elements. Non destructive testing campaign (mainly ultrasonic and rebound hammer tests) made on the same elements. About 72 concrete cubes (15 X 15 X15) were taken from the concrete mixes to check the compressive strength.. Data analyzed.Include the possible correlations between non destructive testing (NDT) and compressive strength (DT) Statistical approach is used for this purpose. A new relationships obtained from correlations results is give
