Parental Knowledge, Attitudes, and Practice toward their Epileptic Children, Baghdad, Iraq 2022
...Show More Authors

Background: Epilepsy is one of the most common neurological disorders. People who know less about epilepsy tend to have negative ideas about the disease. KAP of parents on epilepsy is crucial, especially to children below 13, as the child in this stage mostly depends on parents to get the answers to their concerns. Still, the over-protection from their families will create insecurity and reduce their self-esteem when they grow older.

Objectives: To assess the knowledge, attitude, and practice (KAP) and measure their association with sociodemographic characteristics.

Methods: A cross-sectional study involved 107 parents with children who were diagnosed and received treatment for epilepsy. This study was conducted in the consultation clinics in the Children Welfare Teaching Hospital, Medical City in Baghdad-Iraq, from January through July 2022. A questionnaire was developed and filled out through direct interviews with the participants. The questionnaire was composed of five parts. The first part included primary sociodemographic data. The second part concerns the particular child’s basic characteristics and epilepsy history. The third part concerns the parents' knowledge about child epilepsy. The fourth part concerns parents' attitudes toward children with epilepsy. The fifth part is concerned with the practice of parents toward child epilepsy.

Results: Good knowledge, attitude, and practices were seen among 61 (57.0%), 70 (65.4%), and 90 (84.1%) parents, respectively. Good parents’ knowledge of epilepsy was significantly associated with higher education (college) and with fewer family Members (<5) (P<0.001 and P=0.0002), respectively. In addition, a good parents’ attitude towards epilepsy was significantly associated with higher education (college) (P=0.015).

Conclusion: About half of the parents have good knowledge, two third have a good attitude, and most have good practices towards epilepsy.

...Show More Authors

In this paper, we present a study of examples of writings that are known in the science of Semitic research compared to the texts (Jewish-Arab, Samaritan-Arabic) written in Hebrew script and texts from the Bible. We try to explain the role of these literary works in Islamic history and civilization, as one of the most important documents are the writings (Gniza), which contributed to provide a full presentation on life in the Islamic community in all aspects of life, especially religious activity and showed the sincere relationship in dealing with the other under tolerance The University of Cambridge has prepared Islamic documents and kept them in separate boxes and presented them to researchers to convey the Islamic heritage written by

The Land Use and Land Cover Classification on the Urban Area
...Show More Authors

     The Land Use/ Land Cover (LULC) is an essential application in many remotely sensed projects and problems. Land use is simply man-made objects such as urban, road complex targets, etc., while land covers are defined as any target and phenomenon that appear neutral. The LULC study is essential for all current and future engineering projects, as it shows the nature of the land's components, which is evident in studying and modernizing residential areas. One of the essential operations for studying LULC is the heterogeneity detection and classification calculations of satellite images and topographic maps. A part of the Baghdad, Iraq region was selected for the Landsat satellite group at different periods to detect variance and mak

...Show More Authors

Background: The present study was planned to show the accuracy of clinical examination and tympanometry in diagnosis of middle ear effusion.
Patients and Methods: The study involved 80 patients (160 ears )suspected to have otitis media with effusion (OME) from different age groups ; 56 were males and 24 were females .
Clinical assessment for all patients included otoscopy , pneumatic otoscopy and audiological assessment by using pure tone audiometry and tympanometry then comparing the results to
findings at myringotomy as the gold standard for presence or absence of fluid in the middle ear.
Results : Fluid whether serous or glue was found in 100 ears ( 62.5 %) where as sixty ears were dry, sensitivity , sp

The dual notions of semi-essential submodules and semi-uniform modules
...Show More Authors

     The purpose of this paper is to introduce dual notions of two known concepts which are semi-essential submodules and semi-uniform modules. We call these concepts; cosemi-essential submodules and cosemi-uniform modules respectively. Also, we verify that these concepts form generalizations of two well-known classes; coessential submodules and couniform modules respectively. Some conditions are considered to obtain the equivalence between cosemi-uniform and couniform. Furthermore, the relationships of cosemi-uniform module with other related concepts are studied, and some conditional characterizations of cosemi-uniform modules are investigated.

...Show More Authors

 The new schiff bases derived from D-erythroascorbic acid contaning heterocyclic unit were synthesized by condensation of D-erythroascorbic acid with aromatic amine (containing 1,3,4oxadiazole or 1,3,4-thiadiazole unit) in dry benzene using glacial acetic acid as a catalyst.  Derythroascorbic acid [IV] was synthesized by four steps (Scheme 1), while the primary aromatic amine which is containing 1,3,4-oxadiazole [VII] or 1,3,4-thiadiazole [VIII] synthesized by the reaction of 4methoxy benzoyle hydrazine [VI] with 4-amino benzoic acid or by the reaction  tuloic acid with thiosemicarbazide, respectively in the presence of POCl3. The new  1,3-oxazepine derivatives were obtained by addition reaction of Schiff bases with d

It is no secret that the prophets speech is of great importance, as the second source of Islamic legislation after the Holy Quran, and as such we must reserve and verify the authenticity of the novel and the narrators seizure, and all the conditions laid down by the scholars.

The subject of our research here concerns part of this verification, which is the unknown, the subject of the unknown hadith is considered a matter of great interest by the modernists because it relates to the validity of the novel and the narrators, and the methods of the modernists varied in terms of the reasons for this weakness, the fool never entertained them by the reckless narrative.

Altered IL-2 and IL-10 serum levels in schizophrenic patients
...Show More Authors

Schizophrenia (SZ) is severe mental disorder and characterized by fundamental disturbances in thinking, perception and emotions. Immune deregulation has been postulated to be one of the mechanisms underlying the pathogenesis of schizophrenia. This study hypothesized that interleukins would have a link with schizophrenia patients. The serum IL-2 and IL-10 levels were examined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) in schizophrenia patients (n=60) and healthy controls (n = 30). The results showed that serum IL-2 and IL-10 levels were significantly different among schizophrenia patients. The observations indicate a significant decrease (P < 0.05) in schizophrenic patients serum levels of IL-2 compared with healthy control. Whereas
