Transient Tachypnea of Newborn in Neonatal Care Unit of Children Welfare Hospital Medical City /Baghdad
...Show More Authors

Background: Transient tachypnea (TTN) is a common disorder of the newborn. It is characterized by the                                                                  
early onset of tachypnea sometimes with retractions or expiratory grunting and occasionally cyanosis that is
relieved by minimal oxygen supplementation (<40%).
Objectives: To identify the risk factors and describe the clinical characteristics, treatment and outcome of
infants with TTN.
Patients and methods: This study was carried out on 100 newborn babies with birth weight of 2500 to 4000           
gm and gestational ages range from (completed 37 -42 wks), who were admitted to the neonatal care unit
of Children Welfare Teaching Hospital, Medical city, Baghdad, from 1st of September 2013 to the 31st of
January 2014, and diagnosed as having TTN.
Results: Males represented 68% and females were 32%, with a male to female ratio of 2.1:1. Fifty-three
percent aged 38 weeks, compared to 38% aged < 38 weeks and 9% > 38 weeks, indicating that there
was a significant inverse correlation between the incidence of TTN and the gestational age. There was a
highly significant inverse correlation between the neonate’s weight and the frequency of TTN. Cesarean
section done in 80% compared to 20% delivered with spontaneous vaginal delivery (SVD) and neonates
who were delivered by elective section were more likely to have TTN than those delivered with SVD or
emergency section. The history of maternal diabetes in (17%), a statistically significant association was
found between TTN and the maternal Diabetes Mellitus but not with other maternal diseases. Tachypnea
and chest retraction were the most frequent clinical manifestations, 93% and 72% respectively. Chest X-ray
revealed that 71% had increased pulmonary vascular markings, over aeration in 22%. Out of the 100 cases,
95% were discharged after they improved without complications, 5% complicated with Pneumothorax. No
death in the studied group.
Conclusions: There was a significant association between TTN and maternal diabetes, mode of delivery
especially elective CS, lower gestational age (38 weeks and less), and lower body weight. The most frequent
clinical manifestations of TTN are Tachypnea and chest retraction. Increased pulmonary vascular markings
and over- aeration are the most frequent radiological manifestations. TTN is a self-limited disease in most
of the cases.

Placement Inverse Source Problem under Partition Hyperbolic Equation
...Show More Authors

In this article, the inverse source problem is determined by the partition hyperbolic equation under the left end flux tension of the string, where the extra measurement is considered. The approximate solution is obtained in the form of splitting and applying the finite difference method (FDM). Moreover, this problem is ill-posed, dealing with instability of force after adding noise to the additional condition. To stabilize the solution, the regularization matrix is considered. Consequently, it is proved by error estimates between the regularized solution and the exact solution. The numerical results show that the method is efficient and stable.

Employing Ridge Regression Procedure to Remedy the Multicollinearity Problem
...Show More Authors

   In this paper we introduce many different Methods of ridge regression to solve multicollinearity problem in linear regression model. These Methods include two types of ordinary ridge regression (ORR1), (ORR2) according to the choice of ridge parameter as well as generalized ridge regression (GRR). These methods were applied on a dataset suffers from a high degree of multicollinearity, then according to the criterion of mean square error (MSE) and coefficient of determination (R2) it was found that (GRR) method performs better than the other two methods.

Direction Finding Using GHA Neural Networks
...Show More Authors

 This paper adapted the neural network for the estimating of the direction of arrival (DOA). It uses an unsupervised adaptive neural network with GHA algorithm to extract the principal components that in turn, are used by Capon method to estimate the DOA, where by the PCA neural network we take signal subspace only and use it in Capon (i.e. we will ignore the noise subspace, and take the signal subspace only).

Nonlinear Ritz Approximation for the Camassa-Holm Equation by Using the Modify Lyapunov-Schmidt method
...Show More Authors

 

          In this work, the modified Lyapunov-Schmidt reduction is used to find a nonlinear Ritz approximation of Fredholm functional defined by the nonhomogeneous Camassa-Holm equation and Benjamin-Bona-Mahony. We introduced the modified Lyapunov-Schmidt reduction for nonhomogeneous problems when the dimension of the null space is equal to two.  The nonlinear Ritz approximation for the nonhomogeneous Camassa-Holm equation has been found as a function of codimension twenty-four.

Bank Deposit Guarantee Scope: Comparative Study
...Show More Authors

The guarantee of deposits came in most countries as a result of the financial crises faced by the banks, as the role of the guarantee agencies does not end to the point of enabling the depositor to recover his deposit, but rather it is considered necessary to overcome crises and stabilize the banking system.

The decisions related to the coverage determined by the types of guarantee are important, and it is required that these decisions be consistent with the policy of each guarantee to control and limit the negative effects that accompany deposit insurance, in order to face any risk that threatens deposits and confidence in them and to avoid any financial failures for the stability of the banking system and the protection of depo

Reconciliation between Immunity Assessed for the Diplomatic Bag and Considered National Security
...Show More Authors

The diplomatic bag is one of the important means of communication used by the diplomatic mission to communicate with the government of the sending country and its consulates, as well as the missions in other countries. The diplomatic bag was granted absolute immunity against opening, seizing and inspection in order to effectively perform the function entrusted to it. The practical reality revealed the exploitation of the diplomatic bag to smuggle drugs and shipments of weapons and explosives that harmed the national security of the receiving country. The International Law Committee avoided the matter and reconciled the interest of the immunity of the diplomatic bag with the interest of the state in preserving national security and sovere

Autonomous state security
...Show More Authors

The state, as one of the most important social institutions that works to provide services and security for individuals, needs security, and this security is achieved according to a specific hierarchy that starts from the security of the individual and the security of society to the security of the state, as the advanced state security is based on the basic pillars of solidarity and social peace This security consists of several levels (human, regional, social, economic, and cyber), unlike Arab criminal legislation, including Iraqi law, which is based on the concept of traditional state security, as it relies on the military side only in order to provide maximum criminal protection for the security of the political system The security of

Our aim in this paper is to introduce the notation of nearly primary-2-absorbing submodule as generalization of 2-absorbing submodule where a proper submodule  of an -module  is called nearly primary-2-absorbing submodule if whenever , for , , ,  implies that either  or  or . We got many basic, properties, examples and characterizations of this concept. Furthermore, characterizations of nearly primary-2-absorbing submodules in some classes of modules were inserted. Moreover, the behavior of nearly primary-2-absorbing submodule under -epimorphism was studied.

Free Head Shear Test on Decomposed Granite Soil
...Show More Authors

The study presents the test results of Completely Decomposed Granite (CDG) soil tested under drained triaxial compression, direct shear and simple shear tests. Special attention was focused on the modification of the upper halve of conventional Direct Shear Test (DST) to behave as free
head in movement along with vertical strain control during shear stage by using Geotechnical Digital System (GDS). The results show that Free Direct Shear Test (FDST) has clear effect on the measured shear stress and vertical strain during the test. It has been found that shear strength
parameters measured from FDST were closer to those measured from simple shear and drained triaxial compression test. This study also provides an independent check on
