The aim of the research is to identify the relationship between health anxiety associated with Coronavirus (Covid 19) and its relationship to health behavior among Baghdad University employees, as well as to identify the differences in health anxiety and health behavior according to the variables (gender, occupation, and age). To achieve the objectives of the research, a scale was designed to measure the health anxiety in addition to the adoption of the health behavior scale prepared by (Renner & Schwarzer, 2005). The two scales were applied to a sample of (277) academics and (206) employees, while the number of students was (667). The sample was chosen by electronic application from a number of colleges at Al-Jadiriyah Complex. After statistically processing the data, the researcher concluded that the research sample has health anxiety related to the Coronavirus at an average level and health behavior at a high level. There were no statistically significant differences in health anxiety according to the variables (sex, profession, and age), while there was a statistically significant difference in health behavior according to the age in favor of the older age groups compared to younger age groups. As for the differences in the Health behavior in terms of the profession (academics, student, and employee), the results showed there are significant differences in favor of the sample of academics.
Produced water is accompanied with the production of oil and gas especially at the fields producing by water drive or water injection. The quantity of these waters is expected to be more complicated problem with an increasing in water cut which is expected to be 3-8 barrels water/produced barrel oil.Produced water may contain many constituents based on what is present in the subsurface at a particular location. Produced water contains dissolved solids and hydrocarbons (dissolved and suspended) and oxygen depletion. The most common dissolved solid is salt with concentrations range between a few parts per thousand to hundreds parts per thousand. In addition to salt, many produced waters also contain high levels of heavy metals like zinc, bari

In this work, porcelain containing 32 wt% feldspar, 24 wt% quartz and 44 wt% clay was synthesized and beryllium oxide (BeO) (1 wt.%, 3 wt.%, 5 wt% and 7wt%) were add. The basic and new composition porcelain powders were uniaxially compacted into standard samples dimensions and fired at various sintering temperatures, 1100°C, 1300°C, and 1450°C then held for 2 hour in a furnace.
The effects of sintering temperatures and beryllium oxide content on mechanical, electrical and structural properties were studied. The increasing of sintering temperature on the basi

Vogel is a modern American playwright who won the 1998 Pulitzer Prize for drama. Her success and insight in playwriting or in adapting do not come all of a sudden; she is influenced by many writers. Vogel is influenced by many American dramatists, including Eugene O’ Neill, Arthur Miller, Tennessee Williams, and Edward Albee, and by other non-American writers, including August Strindberg, Anton Chekhove, and Bertolt Brecht. Certainly, there were female playwrights who wrote preeminent plays and they influence Vogel as well. Nevertheless, dramas by female

"And as a "generalization of WE-Prime submodule", we introduce the concept of WE-Semi-Prime submodule, which is also a stronger form of a weakly semi-prime submodule". "Various basic properties of these two concepts are discussed. Furthermore, the relationships between "WE-Prime submodules and weakly prime submodules" and studied". "On the other hand the relation between "WE-Prime submodules and WE-Semi-Prime submodules" are consider". "Also" the relation of "WE-Sime-Prime submodules and weakly semi-prime submodules" are explained. Behind that, some characterizations of these concepts are investigated".
... Show MoreUltrasound imaging has some problems with image properties output. These affects the specialist decision. Ultrasound noise type is the speckle noise which has a grainy pattern depending on the signal. There are two parts of this study. The first part is the enhancing of images with adaptive Weiner, Lee, Gamma and Frost filters with 3x3, 5x5, and 7x7 sliding windows. The evaluated process was achieved using signal to noise ratio (SNR), peak signal to noise ratio (PSNR), mean square error (MSE), and maximum difference (MD) criteria. The second part consists of simulating noise in a standard image (Lina image) by adding different percentage of speckle noise from 0.01 to 0.06. The supervised classification based minimum di

Show MoreIn this paper the new starting material 2-(5-chloro-1H-benzo[d]imidazole-2-yl) aniline (1) was synthesized by the condensation reaction of 4-chloro-o-phenylenediamine and anthranilic acid .The new Mannich base derivatives were synthesized using formaldehyde and different secondary amines to synthesize a new set of benzimidazole derivatives(2-5). Also, the new Schiff-base derivatives (6-10) were synthesized from the reaction of compound (1) with various aromatic aldehydes and the closure-ring was done successfully using mercapto acetic acid to get the new thiazolidine derivatives(11-12).These new compounds were characterized using some physical techniques like:FT-IR Spectra and 1HNMR Spectra.
The purpose of this paper is to study a new types of compactness in the dual bitopological spaces. We shall introduce the concepts of L-pre- compactness and L-semi-P- compactness .
In our research, we introduced new concepts, namely *and **-light mappings, after we knew *and **-totally disconnected mappings through the use of -open sets.
Many examples, facts, relationships and results have been given to support our work.
Background: The association between oral microbial infection and systemic disease is not a new concept. A major confounding issue is that oral infections often are only one of the many important factors that can influence systemic diseases .Objective: This study was conducted to evaluate the periodontal health status of patients with acquired coronary heart disease. Type of the study: Cross-sectional study.Methods: The study group consisted of 200 patients with an age range (35-70) years, having coronary heart disease .This study group were compared to a control group of non-coronary heart disease (200 individuals ) matching with age and gender. The oral parameters were examined including the periodontal conditions, assessment of periodo
