Antiphospholipid Syndrome, Review of 24 Iraqi patients
...Show More Authors

Background: Antiphospholipid syndrome (APS) is a disorder in which vascular thrombosis and / or recurrent pregnancy losses occur in a patient who has laboratory evidence of antibodies against phospholipids or phospholipids binding protein cofactor. Usually the patient presents at an age between 35- 45 years, with equal male to female ratio. Mostly they present with thrombosis or pregnancy complication. A quarter of the patients have thrombocytopenia and about one fifth have hemolytic anemia. The diagnosis rests on the criteria set as the Revised classification criteria for the Antiphospholipid syndrome
Patients and Methods; During the period from 1st Jan. 2002 until the 1st Jan. 2006,24 patients who met the criteria of APS (according to Revised classification criteria for the Antiphospholipid syndrome) were included in the study. The diagnosis of deep venous thrombosis (DVT) was done by using Doppler study of the selected organ,
while brain CT and magnetic resonance imaging were used to diagnose cerebrovascular thromboses.Serological evidence of APA were either an abnormal KCT and KCT index and/or a positive aCL antibody test on 2 occasions.
Results : Three quarter of our patients were females, more than half of them aged 21-30 years ,54.16% of our patients presented with thrombosis the commonest site of which was DVT of lower extremities. Abortion alone was the presenting problem in two patients and two patients presented with thrombosis following abortion Another two patients presented with bleeding problems. Gathering the history; follow up abortion occurred in ten of the thirteen premenapausal married ladies, of whom five had more than three abortions.\Laboratory evaluation revealed anemia in 8 patients (33.33% ) and thrombocytopenia in 5 patients (20.8% ).The KCT and KCT index were suggestive of APS in 14 of the 23 patients tested
(60.86%)and the aCL was positive in 15 of the 19 tested patients (78.94 %).
Conclusion, We think that our study, although small, highlights some of the clinical and laboratory findings of this syndrome in Iraqi patients, larger studies are needed for better
evaluation.

Parental Perception of Fever in Children
...Show More Authors

Back ground : Fever is a common medical problem in
children. parents have been shown unrealistic fears of
harmful effects of fever in their children. Resulting in
inappropriate management of fever in their children.
Objective: the objective of this study was to survey
parents about their knowledge andattitude concerning fever
in their children.
Methods : The study involved random selection of
parents who brought their febrile children to emergency
department or out-patient clinics of five teaching and non
teaching hospitals in Baghdad from first of October to end
of December 2002.
Parents of 400 febrile children were interviewed using a
standard questionnaire to obtain sociodemographic

Immunohistochemical Expression of Endocan in Ameloblastoma
...Show More Authors

Background: Ameloblastoma is the most common clinically significant odontogenic tumor, known for its locally invasive potential and frequent recurrences unless treated radically. Endocan is a soluble proteoglycan which is reported to have prognostic implications in multiple human diseases and tumors. This study aims to describe the expression of endocan in ameloblastoma. Materials and methods: With immunoperoxidase method; tissue sections of formalin fixed- paraffin embedded blocks for ameloblastomas were stained with monoclonal antibodies to endocan, the localization of the endocan expression was examined and the resulting scores of the tissue sections were analyzed according to age, sex, site and tumor subtype. Results: endocan was found

The Use of Idioms in Advertisements
...Show More Authors

The power of advertising is immense. Producers of commercial goods and services routinely pour vast sums into promoting their wares through the advertising media, knowing  that a successful campaign can win them vital market share , and that failure to advertise effectively can have devastating results . The function of advertising is promotional ; to draw our  attention. In order  to achieve this function it must reach its target  audience , then capture that audience with a message that is both attractive and memorable.

         From a linguistic point of view, the language of advertising must be informative, instructive , distinctive and persuasive . It must employ&nb

The Characteristics of English Linking Adverbials
...Show More Authors

Linking adverbials are used to organize and bridge together extended stretches of discourse to make the text coherent. They are explicit indicators of the communicative function of the sentence and writers use them to let their readers follow what has already been said and to help them anticipate what is about to follow.
Linking adverbials include those relations of addition, enumeration, summation, apposition and so on. Through the use of these adverbials, the writer is able to organize and develop his ideas and help the reader follow him from one sentence to another. Thus, a linking adverbial is a semantic relation used to show the way in which what is to follow is systematically connected to what has gone before. So, they have anap

Kinetic Study of Catalytic Hexane Isomerization
...Show More Authors

The isomerization of n-hexane on platinum loaded acidic zeolite was studied at atmospheric pressure, H2/nC6 molar ratios of 1-4 and temperature range of 240-270ºC. The measured kinetic data were fitted to an equation based on the bifunctional mechanism and by using independently obtained dehydrogenation and adsorption data. The activation energies of protonation (ΔHpro) and the elementary isomerization step (Eact,iso) and as well as the corresponding preexponential factor were simultaneously determined. The observed values of both ΔHpro and Eact,iso are in agreement with the results of quantum-chemical calculations.

Exergy Analysis of a Domestic Refrigerator
...Show More Authors

An energy and exergy thermodynamic analysis using EES program was done for a domestic refrigerator working with R-134a using vapor compression refrigeration cycle. The analysis deals with the system component, i.e. compressor, condenser, evaporator and the expansion device. The analysis depends on the entropy generation minimization approach to improve the refrigerator performance by exploring the optimum design points. These design points were derived from three different theories governing the entropy generation minimization using exergy analyzing method. These theories were first applied to find the optimum balance between the hot inner condenser area and the cold inner evaporator area of the refrigerator and between
