Post-Operative Computed Tomography to Evaluate the Accuracy of Thoracic and Lumbosacral Spine Pedicular Screw Fixation
...Show More Authors

 Background: pedicular screw fixation is rapidly becoming a widely used method of spinal instrumentation. Despite improvement in design of instruments and surgical technique and the use of intra-operative fluoroscopy, pedicle cortical perforations occur endangering nearby neurovascular or extra vertebral structures.
Objective: This is a prospective (consecutive cases study) designed for Evaluation of incidence of pedicle screw misplacement in our study sample, compare our results to what is published in literature.
Patients and Method: This study involved 25 adult patients ( 10 males and 15 females ) their age ranged between ( 18 and 70 years) who underwent spinal surgery with pedicle screw fixation for different disorders of thoracic and lumbosacral spine with the aid of intraoperative fluoroscopy. Computed Tomography (CT) scan within one month was done for all patients to evaluate the accuracy of pedicle screw placement. Any new neurological symptoms was recorded and correlated with screw misplacement.
Results: 122screws inserted in 25 patients with an overall accuracy of (90.16%), frank misplacement of (4.09% )and questionable penetration of ( 5.73%) , new neurological deficit was seen in (20%) among all misplaced screws and in one case (4%) out of the 25 cases.
Conclusion: pedicle screw fixation surgery is a demanding procedure. Our incidence of screw misplacement is compatible with the lower published results in the literature. Not all patients with frank penetration of the pedicle cortical outlines developed complications.

لفية البحث:  إن جراحة تثبيت العمود الفقري باستخدام مسمار قدم الفقرات أصبحت من الوسائل الشائعة في جراحه العمود الفقري. رغم التطور الذي في تقنيات و تصاميم وسائل هذه ألجراحه و استخدام التصوير ألشعاعي إثناء هذه ألجراحه لازالت هنالك احتماليه وضع هذا المسمار في غير موضعه الصحيح محدثا ثقوبا في قشره قدم الفقرات مهددا أصابه الأحشاء العصبية و الوعائية ما حول الفقرات.

الهدف من الدراسة: تقييم دقه موضع مسمار قدم الفقرات في مجموعه المرضى اللذين شملوا بهذه الدراسة. مقارنه نتائج دراستنا من حيث نسبه عدم ألدقه مع النسب ألمنشوره في الدراسات و البحوث العالمية الأخرى.

طريقه الدراسة: في هذه الدراسة تم ضم 25 مريضا بالغين (10 ذكور و 15 إناث), تتراوح أعمارهم مابين (18-70) عاما اللذين خضعوا لجراحه تثبيت العمود الفقري بواسطة مسمار قدم الفقرات لمختلف العلل الجراحية للعمود الفقري في المنطقة الصدرية والقطنية والعجزية , تم إجراء التصوير المقطعي لجميع المرضى خلال شهر واحد ما بعد ألجراحه لتقييم دقه موضع مسمار قدم الفقرات وقد تم تسجيل إي اختلاطات سريريه عصبيه ما بعد ألجراحه.

النتائج: لقد تم وضع 122 مسمارا في 25 مريضا وقد كانت النسبة ألعامه لصحة موضع مسمار قدم الفقرات (90,16%) و كانت نسبه عدم الصحة (4,09%) و كانت نسبه (5,73%) غير واضحة و مشكوك في صحة موضعها لقد لوحظ وجود اختلاطات عصبيه في 20%من العدد الكلي للمسامير ,في مريض واحد 4% من أصل 25 مريضا.

الاستنتاجات : إن جراحه تثبيت العمود الفقري بواسطة مسمار قدم الفقرات جراحه تتطلب دقه و خبره في هذا المجال, نسبه عدم صحة موضع مسمار قدم الفقرات في دراستنا مقاربه إلى اوطا النسب ألمسجله في الدراسات و البحوث ألمنشوره عالميا.

A Clinical Method for Prediction of Alveolar Bone Mineral Density in the Area between the Second Premolar and First Molar in Iraqi Adults with Class I Occlusion
...Show More Authors

Background: Orthodontic mini-implants are increasingly used in orthodontics and the bone density is a very important factor in stabilization and success of mini-implant. The aim of this study was to observe the relationship among maximum bite force (MBF); body mass index (BMI); face width, height and type; and bone density in an attempt to predict bone density from these variables to eliminate the need for CT scan which have a highly hazard on patient. Materials and Methods: Computed tomographic (CT) images were obtained for 70 patients (24 males and 46 females) with age range 18-30 years. The maxillary and mandibular buccal cortical and cancellous bone densities were measured between 2nd premolar and 1st molar at two levels from the alveol

MONITORING OF THE WILD MAMMAL FAUNA IN BAMO MOUNTAIN IN NORTHERN IRAQ (KURDISTAN) FOR THE FIRST TIME USING CAMERA TRAP METHOD AND RAISING AWARENESS FOR ITS CONSERVATION
...Show More Authors

Mammals are under threat worldwide due to deforestation, hunting, and other human activities. In Iraq, a total of 93 species of wild mammals have been recorded including species with global conservation concern. Bamo Mountain is situated within the Zagros Mountains in northern Iraq which is a suitable habitat for wild mammals. Due to scarcity of the field survey efforts and cryptic behavior, monitoring of the wild mammals fauna in Zagros Mountain seems challenging. Therefore, we used a camera trap which seems to be an ideal way to determine species diversity of wild mammals in Bamo Mountain. Moreover, interviews with local villagers were performed. The mammalian diversity of Bamo Mountain is not fully explored but seemed threatened by lo

A Comparative Study Between the Fragile and Robust Watermarking Techniques and Proposing New Fragile Watermarking with Embedded Value Technique
...Show More Authors

Since the Internet has been more widely used and more people have access to multimedia content, copyright hacking, and piracy have risen. By the use of watermarking techniques, security, asset protection, and authentication have all been made possible. In this paper, a comparison between fragile and robust watermarking techniques has been presented to benefit them in recent studies to increase the level of security of critical media. A new technique has been suggested when adding an embedded value (129) to each pixel of the cover image and representing it as a key to thwart the attacker, increase security, rise imperceptibility, and make the system faster in detecting the tamper from unauthorized users. Using the two watermarking ty

...Show More Authors

In May 20th. 1985 two species of aphids were found on the roots of Vicia faba L. in Hammam region 30 Kilometer south of Mosul. Samples of these aphids were sent to the Commonwealth Institute of Entomology, London. ( No. 17002/9804 Asia ) and identified as being Smynthurodes betas westwood and Dysaphis crataegi (Kaltenbach) (APhididae : Homoptera). The first species was dominant. The latter species was also noticed on the roots of the common bishop's weed (Ammi majus L.) and on the wide carrot (Daucus carrota L.) of the family Umbelliferae (Bodenheimer & Swirski, 1957).

The Impact of Matrix Acidizing on the Petrophysical Properties of the Mishrif Formation: Experimental Investigation
...Show More Authors

Matrix acidizing is a good stimulation process in which acid is introduced into the reservoir near the wellbore area via the wellbore or coil tubing. In the oil industry, formation damage is a prevalent problem. Bypassing wellbore damage by producing wormholes in carbonate reservoirs is the main purpose of acidizing the matrix of the formation. When doing lab tests, scientists are looking for a wormhole-inducing injection rate that can be used in the field. Meantime the ongoing works on the Ahdeb oil field's Mishrif reservoir, several reports have documented the difficulties encountered during stimulation operations, including high injection pressures that make it difficult to inject acid into the reservoir formation; and only a few
