Arthrogrypotic Club Foot
...Show More Authors

Background: Arthrogryposis Multiplex congenita is a
rare disorder, characterized by multiple joint deformities
i.e. multiple congenital contractures, with shapelessly
cylindrical limbs and absent skin creases.
Club foot can be the only obvious deformity of this
widespread disorder.
Objective: To assess the most frequent recurrent
deformity after extensive soft-tissue release operations for
arthrogrypotic club foot and its appropriate treatment
regarding combined tendon transfer and bony operations.
Methods: A retrospective study of 14 patients with
arthrogrypotic club foot (28 feet), had been operated on by
multiple soft tissue and bony operations and followed in a
period between January (1993) till February (1999).
Both clinical assessment including goniometer use to
measure the recurrent deformity, and radiological
assessment, was used in this study.
Results: In this series, 4 patients (7 feet) had recurrent
deformity, 3 patients
(5 feet) out of these 4 had recurrent forefoot adduction, 2
of them had bilateral affection. The 4th patient had
bilateral recurrent varus heel.
Conclusion: The main problem in arthrogrypotic club
foot is the liability for recurrence. The most frequent
recurrent deformity was forefoot adduction. Combined
tendon transfer and bony operations can correct the
deformity once performed at the same cession forefoot
adduction. All required 2nd operation, in the 1st 3 patient
combined Evan’s (calcaneocuboid wedge-excision) and
tibialis anterior transfer operations were performed.
Talectomy was performed on one foot in the 4th patient,
combined with capsulectomy of the calcaneocuboid joint,
while triple arthrodesis don on the other foot

Uni and Multivariate Optimization for the Spectrophotometric Determination of Cimetidine Drug via Charge-Transfer Complex Formation
...Show More Authors

  Charge transfer complex formation method has been applied for the spectrophotometric determination of cimetidine, in bulk sample and dosage form. The method was accurate, simple, rapid, inexpensive and sensitive depending on the formed charge- transfer complex between cited drug and, 2,3-Dichloro-5,6-dicyano-p- benzoquinone (DDQ) as a chromogenic reagent. The formed complex shows absorbance maxima at 587 nm against reagent blank. The calibration graph is linear in the ranges of (5.0 - 50.0) µg.mL-1 with detection limit of 0.268µg.mL-1. The results show the absence of interferences from the excipients on the determination of the drug. Therefore the proposed method has been successfully applied for the determination of cimetid

NATURAL CONVECTION HEAT TRANSFER IN AN INCLINED CIRCULAR CYLINDER
...Show More Authors

Experiments were carried out to investigate natural convection heat transfer in an inclined uniformly heated circular cylinder . The effects of surface heat flux and angle of inclination on the temperature and local Nusselt number variations along the cylinder surface are discussed . The investigation covers heat flux range from 92 W/m² to 487 W/m², and angles of inclination 0° ( horizontal) , 30° , 60° and 90° (vertical) . Results show an increase in the natural convection as heat flux increases and as angle of inclination moves from vertical to horizontal position. An empirical equation of average Nusselt number as a function of Rayliegh number was deduced for each angle of inclination .

 Charge  transfer (CT) at  liquid/liquid  interfaces are described  theoretically depending on  the quantum theory .A model that derived used to calculate the rate constant  of transport at liquid/liquid  interfaces. The calculation of the rate constant of  charge  transfer depends on  the calculation of the reorganization energy, driving force ,and the coupling coefficient . Large reorganization energies  and large rate constant  for charge transfer ,indicate that the transitions involve more energy to happen . The system have large 𝐸0 (𝑒𝑉) refers that  type  of  liquid  is more reactive media than other liquid types with same d

Measuring the extent to which Application the criteria Transfer stations (regularity) for the municipalities of Karrada and Shula
...Show More Authors

The process of transporting waste from urban areas to sanitary landfill sites requires large amounts of money due to the length and distance. To address this problem, temporary transfer stations were established by the Municipality of Baghdad to reduce the cost of transportation, and for the purpose of preserving the environment in a sustainable manner, standards were set for the establishment of these stations. The two stations of Al-Karrada Municipality and Al-Shula Municipality were chosen as a case study to measure the extent of adopting and applying the standards for establishing substations locally, regionally and internationally, and the most important results were reached Which is that the transforming (regular) stations of the t

Antibacterial Activity of Synergistic Effect of Colicin and Gold Nanoparticles Against Pseudomonas Aerugensa
...Show More Authors

Fifty of urine samples were collected from patients with urinary tract infection
(UTI). The samples were collected from AL- Yarmuk hospital in Baghdad. All of
the isolates were diagnosed using biochemical test and vitek. The result showed that
30 (60%) isolates identified as E.coli from 50 urine samples. The colicinogenic
isolates were determined using cup assay methods. The results showed that 10 out of
30 isolates (33.3%) were detect as colicin producers from 30 isolate identified as
E.coli depending on the clear zone that observed against the sensitive isolate.
Colicin was extracted from the efficient isolate. Colicin activity (320 U/ml) was
determined by well assay method. The protein concentration (520 μg /m

Recurrent Stroke Prediction using Machine Learning Algorithms with Clinical Public Datasets: An Empirical Performance Evaluation
...Show More Authors

Recurrent strokes can be devastating, often resulting in severe disability or death. However, nearly 90% of the causes of recurrent stroke are modifiable, which means recurrent strokes can be averted by controlling risk factors, which are mainly behavioral and metabolic in nature. Thus, it shows that from the previous works that recurrent stroke prediction model could help in minimizing the possibility of getting recurrent stroke. Previous works have shown promising results in predicting first-time stroke cases with machine learning approaches. However, there are limited works on recurrent stroke prediction using machine learning methods. Hence, this work is proposed to perform an empirical analysis and to investigate machine learning al
