Evaluation of Moderate Closed Head Injury by Visual Evoked Response
...Show More Authors

Background: Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is a serious public health problem. Even injuries classified as mild which is the most common, can result in persistent neurobehavioural impairment. Diffuse axonal injury is a common finding after TBI, and is presumed to contribute to outcomes, but may not always be apparent using standard neuroimaging. All severities of TBI can result in a degree of axonal damage, while irreversible myelin damage was only apparent for moderate to severe TBI.

Objectives: To evaluate the effects of moderate closed head injury on visual evoked response (VER) and to assess the changes in VER 6 months later as follow up indices.

Subjects and methods: This prospective study was conducted in the Department of Neurophysiology /Hospital of Neurosurgery/Baghdad from November 2010 to February 2012, using Esoata Italian machine. Ninety three patients with moderate closed head injury (49 female and 44 male), with an age range from (5 -51) years, with a mean age of (26±11.95) years, were chosen according to Glasgow coma scale (9-12 score) undergo VER and only 86patients will  follow up by VER and both were compared to control group of 55 healthy subjects.

Results: P100 wave latency of visual evoked response (VER) was found to be significantly prolonged (P100= 145.41±9.67 msec.), in patients with moderate head injury at an early measurement after injury as compared to that of the healthy (P100= 97.66±4.58 msec.), whereas, the amplitude of P100 at an early measurements is reduced significantly (2.71± 0.77 µv) when compared to healthy subjects (7.32± 1.62 µv). By 6 months post injury the latency of P100was significantly prolonged (P100=137.19±8.45msec.) when compared to that of control group, while it is significantly reduced when compared to the patients with head injury at an early measurements. However, at 6months post injury the P100 amplitude was significantly increased (amplitude =3.26±0.62μv) when compared to the patients with head injury at an early measurement whereas, significantly reduced when compared to the control group.

Conclusion: this study revealed that head injury had serious effect on the brain functions reflected by changes in VER which needs long period of time to return to normal levels.

Evaluation of breast mass excision by 810 nm diode laser
...Show More Authors

Breast mass is by far the most important clinical problem that concerns the breast today. This study was carried out to evaluate diode laser as a cutting tool in breast mass excision and as a hemostatic tool for coagulation during surgery. Using 810 nm diode laser with optical fiber 600μm in diameter of conical tip, udder (cow's breast) tissue, and three female patients (mean age of 35.5 y with clinically palpable breast mass) had been used in this study. The patients were followed up regularly postoperatively. In preliminary work on udder tissue, the power needed for cutting and excision was 15W (power density= 5.3 kW/cm2). The time consumed for excision of a piece of udder tissue, 40×10×3 mm in dimensions was 5 min. The depth range

Evaluating the Proposed Curriculum of TEFL for First Intermediate Class Students in AL-Muthannah Governorate for the Second Semester/2007-2008
...Show More Authors

During the 1970s, communicative view of language teaching began to be incorporated into syllabus design. The central question for the proponents of this view was: what does the learner want/need to do with the target language? This lead to the emergence of a teaching method (or approach) called communicative language teaching (CLT) during the late 1970s and early 1980s focusing on the functions that must be incorporated into a classroom. According to Brown (2001:43) CLT is a unified but broadly based, theoretically well informed set of tenets about the nature of language and of language learning and teaching. Harmer (2001:84) states that the communicative approach is the name which was given to a set of beliefs which included not only a
