...Show More Authors

Background: Among different air pollutants, cigarette smoke contains toxic chemicals, mutagenic and carcinogenic compounds, which can adversely affect male fertility. In this study, semen parameters and reproductive hormonal concentrations of subfertile smokers were compared with subfertile non-smokers.
Objectives: evaluation of the effect of cigarette smoking on male fertility by evaluating several semen parameters as well as some reproductive hormones in a group of smoker and non smokersubfertile Iraqi subjects.
Patients and Methods: At the male infertility clinic of Al-yarmuk teaching hospital, Almustanseria medical college, Baghdad, Iraq from the 1st of October 2010 to the end of June 2011, 88 men (49 non-smokers, and 39 smokers) with history of subfertility for at least 1 year were evaluated by medical history, physical examination, semen analyses and reproductive hormonal profile.
Results:There was a significant impairment of semen parameters namely sperm count, sperm motility and normal sperm morphology in subfertile smokers (means ± SD were 23±28.01, 11.25±16.96 and 35.41±26.44 respectively as compared to subfertilenon smokers in which means ± SD were 53.67±22.16, 27.04±15.70, 52.04±17.90 respectively and P values were < 0.005 for the 3 parameters with a non significant changes in reproductive hormonal profile between smokers and non smokers.

The Effect of Restriction Shape On Laminar Natural Convection Heat Transfer In A Vertical Circular Tube
...Show More Authors

Natural convection heat transfer is experimentally investigated for laminar air flow in a vertical circular tube by using the boundary condition of constant wall heat flux in the ranges of (RaL) from (1.1*109) to (4.7*109). The experimental set-up was designed for determining the effect of different types of restrictions placed at entry of heated tube in bottom position, on the surface temperature distribution and on the local and average heat transfer coefficients. The apparatus was made with an electrically heated cylinder of a length (900mm) and diameter (30mm). The entry restrictions were included a circular tube of same diameter as the heated cylinder but with lengths of (60cm, 120cm), sharp-edge and
