This study includes applying chemical tests on cow, sheep and chicken bones including both hallow and flat. The results of chemical tests on bones mentioned the moisture percentage which was between 4.95-7.32 %, and it was noticed the difference in protein percentage among different kinds of bones, The highest protien percentage was 39.62 % in hallow chicken bones and the lowest was in hallow sheep bones 20.31%, at the same time, the highest Ash percentage was in hallow sheep bones48.11% , whereas the highest percentage of fat was in hallow cow bones 30%. The chemical and physical tests were conducted for extracted fat from hallow and flat bones for cows, sheeps and chicken. It was found that peroxide values (PV), and free fatty acids (FFA) tended to increase proportionally with extraction time at temperatures examined. The lowest values ware obtained after 3 hours as PVs were 0.93, 1.2, 1.0, 1.0, 1.33 and 1.46 meq/ kg oil respectively, FFA values were 0.15, 0.168, 0.187, 0.168, 0.206 and 0.225% respectively. The highest chemical indices for extracted fat from hallow and flat bones for cow and sheep was after 5 hours as PVs were 2.39, 1.8, 1.9, and 1.86 meq/ kg oil respectively, FFA values were 0.253, 0.300, 0.263 and 0.30% respectively. While, the highest chemical indices for extracted fat from hallow and flat chicken bones was after 4 hours, as PVs were 1.6 and 1.73 meq/ kg oil respectively, FFA values were 0.245 and 0.244% respectively. The obtained results showed values of smoking point tended to decrease proportionally as extraction time proceeding at different temperature used, highest values were recorded after extraction for 3 hours, smoking point values were 242.6, 231.33, 223.8, 217.66, 204.5and 204 °C respectively. The lowest physical values of fat extracted from hallow and flat bones of cow and sheep were obtained after 5 hours as the smoking point values were 230.33, 229.83, 203.4 and 204.83°C respectively. The lowest physical indices of fat extracted from hallow and flat chicken bones were obtained after 4 hours, as the smoking point values were 204 and 203.5 °C respectively.
The hazardous metabolic effects of treating schizophrenia patients with olanzapine comprise serotonin 2C receptor (5-HT2C) antagonists. Metabolic side effects of antipsychotic drugs, including lipid abnormalities, disturbed glucose metabolism, and weight gain, can have a major impact on treating psychiatric patients. The intent of this study was to investigate whether there is an associated link between the genetic polymorphism at -759C>T in the promoter region of the 5-hydroxytryptamine 2C receptor (HTR2C) gene and the metabolic syndrome driven by olanzapine in schizophrenia patients. A cross-sectional study that involved fifty hospitalized patients with schizophrenia. The patients were split into two groups (metabolic and non-metab

The research utilizes data produced by the Local Urban Management Directorate in Najaf and the imagery data from the Landsat 9 satellite, after being processed by the GIS tool. The research follows a descriptive and analytical approach; we integrated the Markov chain analysis and the cellular automation approach to predict transformations in city structure as a result of changes in land utilization. The research also aims to identify approaches to detect post-classification transformations in order to determine changes in land utilization. To predict the future land utilization in the city of Kufa, and to evaluate data accuracy, we used the Kappa Indicator to determine the potential applicability of the probability matrix that resulted from

Silver selenide telluride Semiconducting (Ag2Se0.8Te0.2) thin films were by thermal evaporation at RT with thickness350 nm at annealing temperatures (300, 348, 398, and 448) °K for 1 hour on glass substrates .using X-ray diffraction, the structural characteristics were calculated as a function of annealing temperatures with no preferential orientation along any plane. Atomic force microscopy (AFM) and X-ray techniques are used to analyze the Ag2SeTe thin films' physical makeup and properties. AFM techniques were used to analyze the surface morphology of the Ag2SeTe films, and the results showed that the values for average diameter, surface roughness, and grain size mutation increased with annealing temperature (116.36-171.02) nm The transm

Background: Several causes stand behind prolonged neonatal Jaundice (Jaundice that persists more than 2 weeks).
Objectives: To find out the frequency of association between Urinary tract infections (UTI) and prolonged neonatal jaundice in term infants during the first two months of life.
Patients and methods: We conducted an observational prospective study in children welfare teaching hospital, Medical City Complex, Baghdad. Fifty term infants, less than two months of age, with clinically evident jaundice that has persisted for more than 14 days of life were enrolled; UTI was confirmed by urine culture and sensitivity. Demographic features, historical characteristics, lab

Background: Subjects with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) have a higher prevalence of seizures than the general population, according to a significant body of research. Also, seizure-free patients with ASD have been found to have a higher prevalence of epileptiform discharge abnormalities compared to healthy controls across investigations. Changes in the electroencephalogram (EEG) can manifest as sharp waves or spikes, sharp and slow waves, generally distributed or general area, or focused, and can manifest in various brain regions. There is a necessity to search for a distinctive EEG characteristic in ASD patients.
Objectives: This study used electroencephalography to investigate the relationshi
