Background : Coronary artery disease is theunderlying cause in approximately two thirds of
patients with systolic heart failure ;
Coronary artery angiogriphy may be useful to
define the presence ,
Anatomical characteristics ,and functional
significance of Coronary artery disease in
selected heart failure patients with or without signs
and aymptoms of Coronary artery disease.
Objectives: to verify the clinical usefulness of
coronary angiography (CA) in congestive heart
failure (CHF) patients with no history of ischemic
heart disease and to identify predictive factors for
performing coronary angiography to patients with
congestive heart failure with no obvious ischemia.
Methods :this is a cross-sestional study conducted
Ibn al –Bitar center for cardiac surgery during a
period between November 2009 and November
2010 ;all included patients have symptomatic LV
dyfunctional with NYHA functional class II or
more with no clinical evidence of IHD .History,
physical examination had been performed for each
patient , in addition ti blood tests ,ECG ,CXR,
echocardiography and Coronary angiogriphy
Results :Among 112 patients with symptomatic
LV dysfunction of unknown cause enrolled in this
study male :female ratio 3:1 their age (17 -77 years
)there were 14 patients (12.5%)with significant
Coronary artery disease , statistical analysis
between CADand non CAD group show :the CAD
were more common in male 11 patients (78% )
smokers(1)Were female , 25 patients (22.3%) were
diabetic , 25 diabetic (22.3%) were hypertensive
,50 diabetic (44.6%) were smokers . 4 diabetic3.5) with family history of dilatedhyperlipidemia and 3 diabetic (2.6%) ) with
family history ischemic heart disease (IHD in
close relative at age <50 years in men and <55
years in women ) as demographic distribution of
patients in table 1 .coronary angiography show
that are 14 patients (12.5%) with significant
coronary artery disease (CAD) and 98 patients
(87.5%) with significant coronary artery disease
. as shown in figure 1 . eleven patients (78%) of
patients (22%) were female statistical analysis
shows that the male is more predominant in
CAD groups as shown in table 2 . twelve
patients (85.7%) of patients with CAD were
smokers while only 38 patients (38.7%) were
smokers in non CAD group . statistical analysis
shows there is significant difference between
the two groups ( p value < 0.01 ) as shown in
table 3 .nine patients (64.2%) of patients with
CAD were diabetics while 16 patients
(16.3%)were diabetics in non CAD group ,
statistical analysis shows there is significant
difference between the two groups (p value <
0.005) as shown in table (3) .there is no
statistical between the mean of left ventricular
ejection fraction of CAD group ( 37 ±10 %) and
that of non CAD (36±9 % ) , p value > 0.5 as
shown in table 6 . figure 2 revealed that LAD
lesion was most common coronary artery lesion
which represent 12 (85%) followed by in order
of frequency LCX 42 % ,RCA 28% and LMS
7% ; in addition to that 57% with single vessel
disease ,14.2% with 2 vessel disease and
28.4%with r vessel disease (2)Leads , ST
depression ≥1 mm or deep T wave inversion
had been excluded

Reducing of ethyl 4-((2-hydroxy-3-methoxybenzylidene)amino)benzoate (1) afford ethyl 4-((2-hydroxy-3-methoxybenzyl)amino)benzoate (2). Reaction of this compound with Vilsmeier reagent affords novel 2-chloro-[1,3] benzoxazine ring (3). The corresponding acid hydrazide of compound 3 was synthesized from reaction of compound (3) with hydrazine hydrate. Newly series of hydrazones (5a–i) were synthesized from reaction of acid hydrazide with various aryl aldehydes. Antibacterial activity of the hydrazones was secerned utilizing gram-negative and gram-positive bacteria. Compound (5b) and (5c) exhibited significant antibacterial ability against both gram-negative and gram-positive bacteria, while the compounds (5a) showed mild antibacteri

The selection of proper field survey parameters of electrical resistivity can significantly provide efficient results within a reasonable time and cost. Four electrode arrays of 2D Electric Resistivity Imaging (ERI) surveys were applied to characterize and detect subsurface archaeological bodies and to determine the appropriate array type that should be applied in the field survey. This research is to identify the subsurface features of the Borsippa archaeological site, Babylon Governorate, Middle Iraq. Synthetic modeling studies were conducted to determine the proper array and parameters for imaging the shallow subsurface features or targets. The efficiency of many array types has been tested for the detection the buried archaeolog

Green synthesis is depending on preparation of nano composited SiO2/V2O5 by using the modified sol-gel method depending on rice husk ash as a source for the extraction of silica gel and the product powder of nano composited SiO2/V2O5 characterization by many techniques such as X-ray diffraction spectroscopy (XRD), field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM), and N2 adsorptions/desorption isotherms (BET). This study also includs the biological effectiveness of SiO2/V2O5 and its effect on inhibiting bacterial growth after the prepared nanomaterial was applied to wound dressings, which gave a promising result for its use as

The aim of this study is to show the concepts of nuclear shape and the geometrical picture to the even-even nuclei of 164,166,168E isotopes in the context of the Interacting boson Model IBM-1. The energy spectra were calculated and the effective charge values (eB) of the electromagnetic transition strength were obtained and used to calculate the B(E2) values of the electromagnetic transitions and the quadrupole moment Q of 2+ -states. The Hamiltonian parameters were calculated by taking in account the properties of these nuclei. Comparison were made with the available experimental data and included in tables. The geometrical picture of these nuclei were looked at by calculating the deformation which were represented by the potentia

Show MoreIn this research , we study the inverse Gompertz distribution (IG) and estimate the survival function of the distribution , and the survival function was evaluated using three methods (the Maximum likelihood, least squares, and percentiles estimators) and choosing the best method estimation ,as it was found that the best method for estimating the survival function is the squares-least method because it has the lowest IMSE and for all sample sizes
Humanity is confronted with a growing array of environmental challenges that demand immediate attention and cannot be disregarded. One of the issues the world faces is air pollution, which presents a significant risk to both the environment and human well-being. The capitalist system has a great impact on the exacerbation of air pollution and environmental deterioration. This impact is reflected in Caryl Churchill’s post-apocalyptic play Not Not Not Not Not Enough Oxygen (1971). The play presents a futuristic scenario in which humanity faces grave consequences due to the polluting practices of capitalism and the unsustainable exploitation of natural resources. It depicts a future in which environmental degradation drives people
