Evaluation of Auditory Brainstem Response test in comparison with other standard Behavioral tests results
...Show More Authors

Background: There has always been a need for valuable measurements that can be used to measure hearing loss degree in patient who cannot responses to the subjective (behavioral) tests.

Objectives: to examine the accuracy of the click - Auditory Brain stem Response (ABR) test in estimating the hearing loss degree in comparison with the behavioral tests {Free Field (FF)  or Pure Tone Audiometry (PTA )}.

Subjects and method: One hundred twenty one children, with suspected hearing loss, their age between 1-9 year, 51 females and 70 males were examined in this work.
Result
: The relationship between the hearing loss thresholds using the behavioral  tests and click ABR test were variable. The identical ABR results relative to the FF or PTA  results in Profound hearing loss were 84 %, and 100 % respectively. But this percentage decreased, starting from the severe hearing loss to normal hearing, it was 57% for PTA and 31% for the FF. Auditory evaluation in children who were suspected of having hearing loss done via the behavioral  tests, and click ABR. A comparison  has been done between ABR and the Free Field test threshold result in group (1), ABR with Pure Tone Audiometry results  in group (2).

Conclusion: Click –ABR, (2 – 4 kHz) test cannot be used as the only auditory threshold estimation but as a necessary part of the collective hearing data tests.

Experimental evidence of Phase Control method in chaotic Semiconductor Laser
...Show More Authors

we study how to control the dynamics of excitable systems by using the phase control technique.We study how to control nonlinear semiconductor laser dynamics with optoelectronic feedback using the phase control method. The phase control method uses the phase difference between a small.added frequenc y and the main driving frequency to suppress chaos, which leads to various periodic orbits. The experimental studying for the evaluation of chaos modulation behavior are considered in two conditions, the first condition, when one frequency of the external perturbation is varied, secondly, when two of these perturbations are changed. The chaotic system becomes regular under one frequency or two freq

Expression of Heat Shock Protein 70 in thyroid gland tumors
...Show More Authors

Heat shock protein 70 (HSP70) is a crucial protein with vital biological tasks in cell continuation of life. The variation of HSP70 activation occurs as a consequence of stress that includes temperature states, toxicity, poisoning with heavy metals, and tumor-related conditions. One of the master jobs of the HSP family is the suppression of caspase-mediated apoptosis signals. A high level of the expression of HSP70 is accountable for tumorigenesis and resistance against chemotherapeutic drugs. For this reason, the detection of HSP70 may help to diagnose cancerous diseases. From the other side, targeting this chaperone might help in treatment by maintaining late caspase-dependent events. This study was conducted to detect the presenc

Biotreatment of Oil Wells Drilling Waste in an Agricultural Soil
...Show More Authors

One of the most important environmental issues is the responsible effective and economic treatment of drilling waste especially oily waste.
In this research two fungal isolates named Pleurotus ostreatus and Trichoderma harzianum were chosen for the first time to treat biologically the oily drilled cuttings contaminated with diesel which resulted from drilling oil wells use oil based muds (OBMs).
The results showed that the fungi under study utilized the hydrocarbon of contaminated soil as a source of nutrient and growth and that both fungi can be considered hydrocarbon degrading microorganisms. The used biotreatment is cost effective process since most of the materials used in the cultivation and growth of the present fungi were av

The impact of Jurisprudence Rules in Addressing Contemporary security Challenges

Islamic jurisprudence is related to various fields of knowledge, as it is a science of great value, great in impact, and among the most prominent features of jurisprudence comes the jurisprudence rules. It regulates the principles of the doctrine for the jurist. Therefore, the main this research focuses on (the impact of jurisprudence rules in addressing contemporary security challenges). It is the relationship between jurisprudence rules and achieving security. Its fruit would be a statement of the distinguished impact of jurisprudence rules on the stability of the country, and its leading role in maintaining, strengthening, and pre

Anti-bacterial Properties of Melatonin against Mycobacterium Tuberculosis in Vitro
...Show More Authors

         57 isolates of Mycobacterium tuberculosis and Mycobacterium bovis were identified; they were isolated from different clinical sources which included sputum, bronchial wash, abscess, pleural fluid, gastric fluid, eye fluid, and CSF, also urine and ear swab. This investigation was carried out on 198 patient attended National Reference Laboratory for T.B during September 2009. Also the study declared that the ratio of separation of this bacterium from male was (67.6%) and it’s higher than the ratio of separation this bacterium from females which was (32.3%). The susceptibility of Mycobacterium tuberculosis to melatonin was evaluated. Many concentrati

Effect of Stiffeners on Shear Lag in Steel Box Girders
...Show More Authors

This paper studies the effects of stiffeners on shear lag in steel box girders with stiffened flanges. A three-dimensional linear finite element analysis using STAAD.Pro V8i program has been employed to evaluate and determine the actual top flange stress distribution and effective width in steel box girders. The steel plates of the flanges and webs have been modeled by four-node isoparametric shell elements, while the stiffeners have been modeled as beam elements. Different numbers (4, 8, and 15) for the steel stiffeners have been used in this study to establish their effects on the shear lag and longitudinal stresses in the flange. Using stiffeners reduced the magnitude of the top flange longitudinal stresses about 40%, but did

Semiotics of Joseph Curtis… A Study in Perspective and Concept
...Show More Authors

Joseph Curtis wrote in his book (Introduction to Semiotics narrative and rhetoric) on the development of a semiotic project in exploring the meaning of communion. The book is rich in theoretical and analytical benefits both in the approach of texts and in the pursuit of letters in search of mechanisms of scriptural and scriptural generation and mechanics in narrative production, especially as the book offers exercises that help to assess the distance separating the narrative spread from the sin of the text, for the semiotics, Refers to the theoretical developments of the science of relations, through the combination of conventional definitions and the representative and comparative limitations, to provide an approach to the application o
