Predictive Value of Spectral Waveform Indices; Intimal Medial Thickness and Lumen Diameter of Carotid Artery in Iraqi Diabetic and Hypertensive Patients
...Show More Authors

Background: Diabetes and hypertension are related to cardiovascular risk factors and are possible to detect development of atherosclerosis in cardiovascular system, were can predict their effect and measurement by ultrasound and Doppler study. These risk factors included increased intima-media thickness, resistive index (RI) and pulsatility index (PI) of the right common carotid arteries. Method: We studied 20 patients with diabetes and hypertension, and 20 patients with diabetes only, were examine right carotid arteries for these two groups. In this sample we studied the Lumen diameter of the Rt. carotid arteries, Intima – media thickness (IMT), peak systolic velocity, end diastolic velocity, and Pulsatility index, Resistance index were measured. Results: Showed that the change differences in Intima – media thickness and Lumen diameter between patients with diabetes and hypertension than diabetes only were (-18.29%), (-11.26%) respectively with significant (p value <0.05). On the other hand the change difference in peak systolic velocity was (21.25%) for diabetes and hypertension, and diabetes only, with significant p value <0.05. The end diastolic velocity is higher value at DM group than diabetic and hypertensive group with significant p value. The change difference between Pulsatility and Resistance Index for both patients group were (-18.18%), (-16.12) respectively, with significant (p value <0.05). Conclusion: Spectral waveform indices of Rt. Internal carotid artery including Peak systolic velocity (PSV); End-diastolic velocity (EDV), Resistive index (RI) and Pulsatility index (PI) are profound predictive value of atherosclerosis, cardiovascular disease and ischemic changes in Diabetic and hypertensive Iraqi patients beside the intima –media thickness increment and lumen diameter change effect of common carotid artery

Using Alternative Cogeneration Plants in Iraqi Petroleum Industry
...Show More Authors

The present paper describes and analyses three proposed cogeneration plants include back pressure steam-turbine system, gas turbine system, diesel-engine system, and the present Dura refinery plant. Selected actual operating data are employed for analysis. The same amount of electrical and thermal product outputs is considered for all systems to facilitate comparisons. The theoretical analysis was done according to 1st and 2nd law of thermodynamic. The results demonstrate that exergy analysis is a useful tool in performance analysis of cogeneration systems and permits meaningful comparisons of different cogeneration systems based on their merits, also the result showed that the back pressure steam-turbine is more efficient than other pro

The Iraqi outfit is characterized by special features and identity that are closely related to the traditions, customs, religious and social beliefs and other references of the Iraqi environment and its factors affecting the individual and society. Every place in Iraq has its own uniform, which differs in terms of its artistic, aesthetic and functional components from place to place.

The abaya, especially worn by women, is especially distinct in terms of the design of the uniform, the nature of the cloth made of it, as well as the color of the abaya, which is dominated by black in most designs. The Dar Al-Taros Center and Textile Research initiated the construction of theoretical and practical bases in the design of contemporary
