Harmonic Knife New Haemostatic Procedure In Thyroid Surgery
...Show More Authors

 

Background: Thyroid operation needs very meticulous haemostasis to have minimal morbidity and mortality.

Objectives: Assessment of harmonic knife in open thyroid surgery as anew haemostatic procedure .

Type of the study: Cross-sectional study.

Methods: This study had been conducted at Alkindy teaching hospital in Baghdad city from the 1st of May 2013 to the 1st of January 2017  on 229  goiterous patients who needs thyroidectomy(36 males,193 females),divided in 2 groups according to the haemostatic procedure used during their operations, Group A (15 males,85females)using the usual conventional surgery(pick, tie &cut), Group B (21males,108 females) using harmonic knife as haemostatic procedure and compare the results according to time of surgery, amount of discharge in the drain during the first 24 hours post operatively ,the incidence of recurrent nerve palsy and the remote post operative hypocalcaemia (3months post operation) .

Results: It shows that thyroid surgery (thyroidectomy) by using harmonic knife as haemostatic procedure is shorter in duration [mean67.22 minutes] with less blood loss in the

drain [mean 64.96cc] and less incidence of hypocalcaemia in remote post operative period [3.8%] in comparison to the results of the usual conventional thyroidectomy procedures (mean duration 82.02 minutes, mean blood loss in the drain 111.13cc & incidence of hypocalcaemia is 7%}.

Conclusions: Harmonic knife is very safe & beneficial haemostatic device in thyroid surgery.

NEW THERMOTROPIC SYMMETRICAL MESOGENS CONTAINING HETERO RINGS: SYNTHESIS AND CHARACTERIZATION
...Show More Authors

A variety of liquid crystals comprising heterocyclics 1,3,4-oxadiazol ring [III], aminooxazol [IV]a, and aminothiazol [IV]b were synthesized through a number of steps, beginning of the reaction of 3, 3'- dimethyl - [1, 1'-biphenyl] -4, 4'- diamin, ethyl monochloroacetate and sodium acetate to synthesize diacetate compound[I]. The diester reacted with hydrazine hydrate(N2H4-H2O) to give dihydrazide compound [II], then reacted with Pyruvic acid and phosphorous oxychloride to produce diketone compound [III]. The last compound was reacted with urea and thiourea to give aminooxazol and aminothiazol respectively. The synthesized compounds actually characterized and determined the structures by melting points, FT-IR and 1H-NMR spectroscopies. By u

On Solving Hyperbolic Trajectory Using New Predictor-Corrector Quadrature Algorithms
...Show More Authors

In this Paper, we proposed two new predictor corrector methods for solving Kepler's equation in hyperbolic case using quadrature formula which plays an important and significant rule in the evaluation of the integrals. The two procedures are developed that, in two or three iterations, solve the hyperbolic orbit equation in a very efficient manner, and to an accuracy that proves to be always better than 10-15. The solution is examined with and with grid size , using the first guesses hyperbolic eccentric anomaly is and , where is the eccentricity and is the hyperbolic mean anomaly.

Evaluation of a new orthodontic bonding system (Beauty Ortho Bond)
...Show More Authors

Background: The purpose of the current study was to evaluate the efficacy of a new orthodontic bonding system (Beauty Ortho Bond) involving the shear bond strength in dry and wet environments, and adhesion remnant index (ARI) scores evaluation in regard to other bonding systems (Heliosit and Resilience Orthodontic Adhesives). Materials and methods: Sixty defect free extracted premolars were randomly divided into six groups of 10 teeth each, mounted in acrylic resin, three groups for a dry environment and three for a wet one. Shear bond strength test was performed with a cross head speed of 0.5 mm/min, while surfaces of enamel and bracket-adhesive-enamel surfaces were examined with stereomicroscope For ARI scores evaluation. Data were analyz

The legal framework for the protection of new plant varieties
...Show More Authors

TRIPS agreement was The first to apply protection by patents. However, this type of protection, which grants exclusive and monopoly rights to patent owners, came at the expense of developing countries which are considered rich in biodiversity and also at the expense of traditional and poor knowledge of modern technologies. The release of new plant varieties has led to the emergence of biopiracy and looting of the rights of developing countries without a license

Carbon Dioxide Laser Treatment of Viral Warts: A New Approach
...Show More Authors

Verrucae vulgares are commonly encountered. The present work is designed in an attempt to build a systematic procedure for treating warts by carbon dioxide laser regarding dose parameters, application parameters and laser safety.
Patients and Methods: The study done in the department of dermatology in Al-Najaf Teaching Hospital in Najaf, Iraq. Forty-two patients completed the study and follow up period for 3 months. Recalcitrant and extensive warts were selected to enter the study. Carbon dioxide laser in a continuous mode, in non-contact application, with 1 mm spot size was used. The patients were divided into two groups. The first group of patients consisted of 60 lesions divided to 6 equal groups, in whom we use different outputs a

A New Strategy to Modify Hopfield by Using XOR Operation
...Show More Authors

The Hopfield network is one of the easiest types, and its architecture is such that each neuron in the network connects to the other, thus called a fully connected neural network. In addition, this type is considered auto-associative memory, because the network returns the pattern immediately upon recognition, this network has many limitations, including memory capacity, discrepancy, orthogonally between patterns, weight symmetry, and local minimum. This paper proposes a new strategy for designing Hopfield based on XOR operation; A new strategy is proposed to solve these limitations by suggesting a new algorithm in the Hopfield network design, this strategy will increase the performance of Hopfield by modifying the architecture of t
