Prothrombin Time role in Head Injury & Intracranial Hematomas, A prospective Study of 325 cases
...Show More Authors

Objective: Aimed to asses the role of PT estimation in early diagnosis and predicting the extent and the outcome of head injury with ICerH and/ or Contusion
Method :PT was measured by Digiclot 818
Group –1: One hundred consecutive head injured patients admitted at Neurosurgical and Al Ramadi teaching hospitals were initially estimated for prothrombin time and subsequently scanned
Group-2 : Two hundred twenty five consecutive non scanned head injured patients admitted to Neurosurgical and Al Ramadi teaching hospitals were estimated with prothrombin time at the time of insult and subsequently for the next two weeks Al – Kindy Col Med J 2012; Vol. 8 No. 1 P: 54
Clinical and neurological evaluation (GCS) score in addition to computerized tomography scan was done for both groups
Result :Group -1: Twenty eight (28%) of the initially estimated head injured patients had prolonged prothrombin time in which their subsequent CT scan revealed an ICer H and/or contusion
Seventy six (76%) percent of those with severely head injured patients (GCS≤8) were having an initial prothrombin time prolongation..While those with mild head injury (GCS≥12) only thirty (30%) of them were having the initial prothrombin time prolongation
Group-2 Those patients who survived the initial insult and subsequently thereafter (surgically or conservatively treated) even with a deficit.. Daily estimation of prothrombin time showed a decline within the 7-14 days
Those patients who finally died (surgically or conservatively treated) daily estimation of prothrombin time showed a persistent elevation or a fluctuation within the next 7-14 day
Conclusion Prothrmbin time is an important
parameter in :
1-Reflecting the severity of head injury (GCS)
3-Early detection of ICerH and /or contusion
2-Prognostic value in cases of of ICerH and /or contusion
Abb : ICerH = Intracerebral hematomas,SDH=subdural hematomas,EDH=epidural hematomas,SAH=subarachnoid hemorrhages,PT=Prothrombin time,Pts=Patients,CT scan=computarized tomography.

Construction Time-Cost Optimization Modeling Using Ant Colony Optimization
...Show More Authors

In the field of construction project management, time and cost are the most important factors to be considered in planning every project, and their relationship is complex. The total cost for each project is the sum of the direct and indirect cost. Direct cost commonly represents labor, materials, equipment, etc.
Indirect cost generally represents overhead cost such as supervision, administration, consultants, and interests. Direct cost grows at an increasing rate as the project time is reduced from its original planned time. However, indirect cost continues for the life of the project and any reduction in project time means a reduction in indirect cost. Therefore, there is a trade-off between the time and cost for completing construc

Non-Productive Time Reduction during Oil Wells Drilling Operations
...Show More Authors

Often there is no well drilling without problems. The solution lies in managing and evaluating these problems and developing strategies to manage and scale them. Non-productive time (NPT) is one of the main causes of delayed drilling operations. Many events or possibilities can lead to a halt in drilling operations or a marginal decrease in the advancement of drilling, this is called (NPT). Reducing NPT has an important impact on the total expenditure, time and cost are considered one of the most important success factors in the oil industry. In other words, steps must be taken to investigate and eliminate loss of time, that is, unproductive time in the drilling rig in order to save time and cost and reduce wasted time. The data of

Resveratrol protects mice against SEB‐induced acute lung injury and mortality by miR‐193a modulation that targets TGF‐β signalling
...Show More Authors
Abstract<p>Staphylococcal enterotoxin B (SEB) is a potent superantigen produced by <italic>Staphylococcus aureus</italic> that triggers a strong immune response, characterized by cytokine storm, multi‐organ failure, and often death. When inhaled, SEB can cause acute lung injury (ALI) and respiratory failure. In this study, we investigated the effect of resveratrol (RES), a phytoallexin, on SEB‐driven ALI and mortality in mice. We used a dual‐exposure model of SEB in C3H/HeJ mice, which caused 100% mortality within the first 5 days of exposure, and treatment with RES resulted in 100% survival of these mice up to 10 days post‐SEB exposure. RES reduced the inflammatory cytokines in the serum an</p> ... Show More
