Effect of Age and Gender on QRS Complex Amplitude in Healthy Adults.
...Show More Authors

Background: There is controversy about the upper normal value of QRS complex amplitude in adult population under the age of 40 years. Most of the left ventricular hypertrophy voltage criteria were designed or tested for people above 40 years. In addition to age, QRS amplitude is also affected by gender and racial factors.

Objectives: To evaluate the impact of age on QRS amplitude in each gender separately in healthy adults.

Patients and Methods: Electrocardiograms from 563 overtly healthy adults (386 male and 177 female) aged 18-40 years were obtained using Cardios PC based ECG machine, 12-lead ECGs were recorded and QRS amplitude was measured as the sum of (SV1+RV5) and (SV2+RV6) both by computer and manual revision. The mean QRS amplitude was calculated for the entire study sample and then for each sex separately. The mean QRS amplitude was then compared between the two genders and in different age groups in the study sample. Linear regression lines of QRS amplitude versus age were drawn for each gender separately.

Results: The mean ± SD of QRS amplitude in the study sample was within normal range. Also It was found that males have significantly higher mean QRS amplitude than females (p=0.001), and there was highly significant decline in mean QRS amplitude with increasing age group in the study sample (p=0.001). Linear regression lines of QRS amplitude versus age in each gender separately have shown that males have greater QRS amplitude than females and there was a clear decline in QRS amplitude with increased age from 18- to- 40 years in males, but the picture was different in females as they have shown a very slight increase in QRS amplitude with increased age from 18- to- 40 years.

Conclusions: The mean QRS amplitude in males was significantly higher than females. There was a clear decline in QRS amplitude with increased age from 18-40 years in males ‘on the contrary, in females there was a very slight increase in QRS amplitude with increased age from 18-40 years.

Analytical Study Compared Between Poisson and Poisson Hierarchical Model and Applied in Healthy Field
...Show More Authors

Through this research, We have tried to evaluate the health programs and their effectiveness in improving the health situation through a study of the health institutions reality in Baghdad to identify the main reasons that affect the increase in maternal mortality by using two regression models, "Poisson's Regression Model" and "Hierarchical Poisson's Regression Model". And the study of that indicator (deaths) was through a comparison between the estimation methods of the used models. The "Maximum Likelihood" method was used to estimate the "Poisson's Regression Model"; whereas the "Full Maximum Likelihood" method were used for the "Hierarchical Poisson's Regression Model

The Impact of COVID-19 on Healthy Related Issues, A structured Review
...Show More Authors

Coronavirus: (COVID-19) is a recently discovered viral disease caused by a new strain of coronavirus.

The majority of patients with corona-virus infections will have a mild-moderate respiratory disease that recovers without special care. Most often, the elderly, and others with chronic medical conditions such as asthma, coronary disease, respiratory illness, and malignancy are seriously ill.

    COVID-19 is spread mostly by salivary droplets or nasal secretions when an infected person coughs or sneezes.

    COVID-19 causes severe acute respiratory illness (SARS-COV-2). The first incidence was recorded in Wuhan, China, in 2019.  Since then it spreads leading to a pandemic.

The Impact of COVID-19 Infection on Gonadal Hormonal Hunctions in Iraqi Wome: تأثير كوفيد -19 على الدورة الشهرية
...Show More Authors

Background: The COVID-19 pandemic has had effects beyond the respiratory system, impacting health and quality of life. Stress-related to the pandemic has led to temporary menstrual pattern changes in around one-third of women. These changes, likely driven by stress and anxiety, can result in problematic heavy bleeding, causing anemia and negatively affecting women's well-being. This also places a substantial socioeconomic burden on individuals, families, healthcare, and society.

Objectives: This study examined the impact of COVID-19 infection on the hormone levels (estradiol, prolactin, follicle-stimulating hormone, and luteinizing hormone) and heavy menstrual bleeding in Iraqi premenopausal women

Effects of Discharge Current and Target Thickness in Dc-Magnetron Sputtering on Grain Size of Copper Deposited Samples
...Show More Authors

A study of the effects of the discharge (sputtering) currents (60-75 mA) and the thickness of copper target (0.037, 0.055 and 0.085 mm) on the prepared samples was performed. These samples were deposited with pure copper on a glass substrate using dc magnetron sputtering with a magnetic flux density of 150 gauss at the center. The effects of these two parameters were studied on the height, diameter, and size of the deposition copper grains as well as the roughness of surface samples using atomic force microscopy (AFM).The results of this study showed that it is possible to control the specifications of copper grains by changing the discharge currents and the thickness of the target material. The increase in discharge curre

Background: Diabetes mellitus has been suggested
to be the most common metabolic disorder
associated with magnesium deficiency, and because
available data suggest that adverse outcomes are
associated with hypomagnesemia, it is prudent that
routine surveillance for hypomagnesemia be done
and the condition be treated whenever possible.
Aim of the study:To explore the serum Mg
concentrations of diabetic patients and healthy
controls in our locality.

Effects of internal Acoustic Excitation on the Improvement of Airfoil Performance
...Show More Authors

The effect of internal acoustic excitation on the leading-edge, separated boundary layers and the aerodynamic performance of NACA23015 cross section airfoil are examined as a function of excitation location with ranging frequency range (50-400) Hz of the introduced acoustic. Tests are separately conducted in two sections, open type wind tunnels at the Reynolds number of 3.3x105 for measurement at angle of attack (0, 3, 6, 9 &12) deg. and 3x104 for the visualization at angle of attack (12) deg. based on the airfoil chord. Results indicated that the excitation frequency and the excitation location are the key parameters to alter the flow properties and thus to improve the aerodynamic performance. The most effective excitation frequency
