Echocardiogrhphic assessment of the effect of type (2) Diabetes mellitus on cardiac performance

Background: Diabetes mellitus (DM) causes damaging effects on the cardiac function; these effects can be observed on the diastolic performance of the heart reflected on the change in transmitral blood velocity, the cardiac wall and septum thickness.
Objectives: The present study was to assess the diastolic and systolic cardiac muscle performance for patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus compared with control individuals and to evaluate the index of myocardial performance.
Patients and Methods: The study involved 97 patients (35 male and 62 female of average age of 56.2 ±10.755) of type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM), they were investigated for their left ventricle performance and compared with 51 normal individuals “the control group” (20 male and 31 female of average age of 41.4 ± 13.196). Measurements of isovolumetric contraction time IVCT, ejection time ET, ejection fraction EF%, isovolumetric relaxation time IVRT, the early and late peak velocities E and A of transmitral flow, left ventricle diameter in diastole and systole LVIDs, LVIDs, posterior wall thickness PWTd, and Interventricular septum thickness in diastole IVSTd were measured, and index of myocardial performance IMP was calculated.
Results: Results reveal differences in these parameters for patients group relative to controls, in IVRT, ET, E, A, E/A, EF%, IMP, LVIDs, PWTd and IVSTd all are strongly significant with p value <0.001and for FS% p value = 0.0029 except for IVCT the change was 9.342% with p value 0.188 and the change in LVIDd -3.586%, p value 0.052 were not significant.
Conclusion: Diabetes mellitus can cause a deleterious effect on the myocardium. The effect causes impairment in the cardiac diastolic performance and muscle contractility caused by the damage inflicted by hyperglycemia (high blood sugar). Also results show that IMP is increased in type 2 DM patients. This increase may be an early sign of diabetic cardiomyopathy in diabetic patients.

On A Certain Class of Meromorphic Multivalent Functions Defined by Fractional Calculus Operator

    In this work, we study a new class of meromorphicmultivalent functions, defined by fractional differ-integral operator.We obtain some geometricproperties, such ascoefficient inequality, growth and distortion bounds, convolution properties, integral representation, radii of starlikeness, convexity, extreme pointsproperties, weighted mean and arithmetic meanproperties.

Synthesis of N-benzothiazole derivative imide on polymeric chain, have possible biological activity

In this reserch Some new substituted and unsubstituted poly imides compounds. were synthesized by reaction of acrylol chloride with different amides (aliphatic and aromatic) in a suitable solvent in the presence amount triethyl amine (Et3N) with heating. The Structure confirmation of all polymers were confirmed using FT-IR,1H-NMR,13C-NMR and UV spectroscopy. Thermal analysis (TG) for some polymers showed their thermal stabilities. Other physical properties including softening points, melting point and solubility of the polymers were also measured

Efficacy of some drugs and pathological studies on Toxoplasma gondii infection in mice.

The study was conducted to determine the effect Toxoplasma gondii and the efficacy of azithromycin and garlic tablets on the treatment of acute murine toxoplasmosis and observe the histopathological changes due to infection. 60 Albino mice were divided into six groups, and their survival rate, pathology, bioassay trial and immunofluorescence were observed. Results revealed that azithromycin (250 mg/kg/day) given to infected mice increased the survival rate (90% on day 7 PI) and decreased the histopathological changes when compared with the control groups. Garlic tablets (500 mg/kg/day) had lesser effect on infected mice, and the survival rate (40% at days 6 and 7 PI) was lower than the groups treated with azithromycin. The group treated wit

Enhancement of Digital Stereo Vision Images based on Histogram and Gamma Correction Strategy

     Image contrast enhancement methods have been a topic of interest in digital image processing for various applications like satellite imaging, recognition, medical imaging, and stereo vision. This paper studies the technique for image enhancement utilizing Adaptive Histogram Equalization and Weighted Gamma Correction to cater radiometric condition and illumination variations of stereo image pairs. In the proposed method, the stereo pair images are segmented together with weighted distribution into sub-histograms supported with Histogram Equalization (HE) mapping or gamma correction and guided filtering.  The experimental result shows the experimented techniques outperform compare with the original image in ev

On-Site Disposal and Burial of Pit Wastes (Two Southern Iraqi Oil Fields)

On-site pit is the most common option that may be used to dispose drilling wastes. The contents of these pits vary, depending on the lithology of formations drilled and the drilling mud ,and different chemical additives.
Eighty samples of mud (sludge) and eighty samples of water have been collected from ten pits of two Iraqi oilfields(North Rumaila and South Rumaila/southern Iraq) and were chemically analyzed for metals Cr, Pb,As, Zn, Fe, Mn,K , Na,Ba, Ca, Mg,SO4=,and Cl- in order to determine the quality and quantity content of studied reserve pits
Inefficient equipment, using toxic materials for various drilling processes, absence of regulations for the design and monitoring of pit during and after drilling operation, and leaking

Measurements of X-Ray Dose Delivered at Different Depths Applied on Water Phantom

Background: Radiotherapy, is therapy using ionizing radiation in order to deliver an optimal dose of either particulate or electromagnetic radiation to a particular area of the body with minimal damage to normal tissues. The source of radiation may be outside the body of the patient (external beam irradiation) or it may be an isotope that has been implanted or instilled into abnormal tissue or a body cavity. Called also radiotherapy. The aim of work studies the relationship between the depth dose and the high photon xray energies (6MeV and 10MeV). Patients and methods: in our work, we studied the dose distribution in water phantom given at different depths (zero-18) cm deep at1cm intervals treated with different field size (5×5-,10×1

Subsurface Investigation of Tuba Oil Field Depending on 2D Seismic Reflection South Iraq

This study deals with the seismic reflection interpretation of Cretaceous Formations in Tuba oil field, southern Iraq, including structural and stratigraphic techniques. The study achieved by using Geofram , Geolog and Petrel software. The interpretation process, of 2-D seismic data and well logs have been used. Based on well logs and synthetic traces two horizons were identified and picked which are the tops of Mishrif and Zubair Formations. These horizons were followed over all the area in order to obtain their structural setting. Structural interpretation indicates that the Tuba oil field is an anticline structure as well as the presence of normal fault near Mishrif Formation trending NE-SW. Information from the wells appeared Mishrif

Optimum Design of Power System Stabilizer based on Improved Ant Colony Optimization Algorithm

This paper presents an improved technique on Ant Colony Optimization (ACO) algorithm. The procedure is applied on Single Machine with Infinite Bus (SMIB) system with power system stabilizer (PSS) at three different loading regimes. The simulations are made by using MATLAB software. The results show that by using Improved Ant Colony Optimization (IACO) the system will give better performance with less number of iterations as it compared with a previous modification on ACO. In addition, the probability of selecting the arc depends on the best ant performance and the evaporation rate.
