MATERNAL AND FETAL OUTCOMES IN EMERGENCY VERSUS ELECTIVE TWO OR MORE PREVIOUS CAESAREAN DELIVERIES
...Show More Authors

Background: Women with previous two or
more caesarean deliveries are usually
managed by elective cesarean section to avoid
the possible risks of labor.
Objective: To compare the relative risks of
maternal and fetal outcomes in emergency
versus elective previous two or more
caesarean deliveries
Design: Randomized prospective clinical
study
Setting: Al-Elweya Maternity Teaching
Hospital, from 1st of March to 31st of
September 2008.
Methods: The study groups, those who had
previous two or more caesarean deliveries,
were included from the hospital admissions.
The 1st group (102 women) presented in labor
and was managed by caesarean delivery as
soon as it was possible. The second group (78
women) was admitted for elective cesarean
delivery.
The main maternal outcomes were intra
operative complications, including
hysterectomy, scar dehiscence, bladder
injuries, uterine and internal iliac arteries
ligation, and blood transfusion. Postoperative
maternal outcomes were severe morbidity
including bleeding, fever, urinary tract
infection, blood transfusion, the need to
Intensive Care Unit admission and
readmission. The fetal outcomes measures
were Apgar score at one and five minutes,
respiratory distress syndrome (RDS),
admission to the neonatal intensive care unit
and fetal loss up to hospital discharge.
Results: Both groups were comparable in
demographic, social and past obstetric history
characteristics. Intra operative complications
showed significant difference in bowel
adhesions (RR 0.35, 95% CI 0.14- 0.88), and
blood transfusion (RR 0.51, 95% CI 0.28-
0.94). There was statistical significant
difference in the mobilization time 7.2 hours
and 9.3 hours in emergency and elective
groups respectively (p= 0.0009), also in
feeding time, it was shorter after emergency
caesarean section (P=0.0224), and in the
hospital stay 24.6 and 32.6 hours respectively
(p=0.0001). There was no statistical difference
in post operative complications. Fetal
outcomes showed no statistical significant
difference in fetal loss, respiratory distress and
readmission.
Conclusion: Women with previous two or
more caesarean deliveries can wait until
starting labor for doing cesarean delivery
without increasing risks to the mother and
fetus.

Determination and evaluation of principal minerals in Negella sativa by atomic absorption technical methods
...Show More Authors

Determination and evaluation of principal minerals in Negella sativa by atomic absorption technical methods were showed, using wet ashing method. This work was done on Negella sativa because of wide using of this plant in many formulations ( in food or medicine ).two types of atomic absorptions were used : first, flame atomic absorption spectroscopy, for minerals of high concentrations such as, Na, Mg, K, Fe, Ca, Li, Ni, Zn, Mn, Cu. Second, flameless atomic absorption spectroscopy, for minerals of low concentrations such as, Al, Si, V, B, Pb, Co, Cd, Cr ,Si, Hg, Sn .The results showed the existence of many minerals in Negella sativa useful to human sanity with acceptable dietary allowance. On other side, the presence of harmful m

Abstract<p>Adherence to cardiac medications makes a significant contribution to avoidance of morbidity and premature mortality in patients with cardiovascular disease. This quantitative study used cross‐sectional survey design to evaluate medication adherence and contributing factors among patients with cardiovascular disease, comparing patients who were admitted to a cardiac ward (<italic>n</italic> = 89) and those attending outpatient cardiac rehabilitation (<italic>n</italic> = 31) in Australia. Data collection was completed between October 2016 and December 2017. Descriptive and regression analyses were conducted to identify medication adherence and determine factors independently pred</p> ... Show More

Anti CD20 Monoclonal Antibody (Rituximab) as a Rescue Treatment in Severe and Refractory SLE
...Show More Authors

Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is an autoimmune disease with polymorphic expression. B cells have an essential contribution in immune system activation via the production of different cytokines and functioning as potent antigen-presenting cells. Therefore, a drug that particularly targets B cells may represent an ideal therapeutic approach for SLE. Rituximab (RTX), an anti-CD20 monoclonal antibody causing transient B-cell depletion, has been used to manage SLE. This study aims to assess Rituximab effects on lupus nephritis (LN) patients when added to conventional immunosuppressants. Twenty four patients, 15-32 years old, with class III/IV/V LN were involved in this study. All were on steroids before lupus nephritis occurrence. They were

Evaluation of ANFIS and Regression Techniques in Estimating Soil Compression Index for Cohesive soils
...Show More Authors

Generally, direct measurement of soil compression index (Cc) is expensive and time-consuming. To save time and effort, indirect methods to obtain Cc may be an inexpensive option. Usually, the indirect methods are based on a correlation between some easier measuring descriptive variables such as liquid limit, soil density, and natural water content. This study used the ANFIS and regression methods to obtain Cc indirectly. To achieve the aim of this investigation, 177 undisturbed samples were collected from the cohesive soil in Sulaymaniyah Governorate in Iraq. Results of this study indicated that ANFIS models over-performed the Regression method in estimating Cc with R2 of 0.66 and 0.48 for both ANFIS and Regre

Measurement Radon Concentration in Imported and Local Wood Using Solid State Nuclear Track Detectors
...Show More Authors

Abstract: The aim of the present work is to measure radon concentration in wood. Solid state nuclear track detectors of type CR – 39 was used as measurement device. Eight different samples of imported and local wood were collected from markets. Samples were grinded, dried in order to measure radon concentrations in it. Cylindrical diffusion tube was used as detection technique. Results show that the higher concentration was in Iraqi sample 1 which recorded (14.02 ± 0.9) Bq / m3, while the less was in Emirates Sample which recorded (5.35 ± 1.2) Bq / m3. From the present work, all wood samples were with lowest concentrations of radon gas than other building materials.
