Background: Anemia of chronic disease (ACD) occurs in the presence of chronic infection, inflammatory conditions or neoplastic conditions despite of adequate iron and vitamins storage. Gingivitis is the inflammation of the gingiva, periodontitis is the inflammation in the periodontium that extend deeper with loss of connective tissue attachment and supporting bone. The main pathogenesis of periodontal diseases and ACD is immune activation. Aims of study: Determine and compare the clinical periodontal parameters (plaque index (PLI), gingival index (GI), bleeding on probing (BOP), probing pocket depth (PPD) and clinical attachment level (CAL)). Evaluate the hematocrit (Hct) level, red blood cells (RBCs) count and white blood cells (WBCs) c

This study employs wavelet transforms to address the issue of boundary effects. Additionally, it utilizes probit transform techniques, which are based on probit functions, to estimate the copula density function. This estimation is dependent on the empirical distribution function of the variables. The density is estimated within a transformed domain. Recent research indicates that the early implementations of this strategy may have been more efficient. Nevertheless, in this work, we implemented two novel methodologies utilizing probit transform and wavelet transform. We then proceeded to evaluate and contrast these methodologies using three specific criteria: root mean square error (RMSE), Akaike information criterion (AIC), and log

Background: Automobile spray painting is considered an occupation with a high risk of respiratory impairment and asthma. Exposure to organic solvents used for spraying might be of high risk for development of dysfunction in other organs.
Objective: The study was designed to evaluate the pulmonary and hepatic toxicity due to exposure of automobile painters to organic solvents in work places within the Baghdad governorate area.
Methods: Thirty cross sectional selected male workers employed in automobile body paint shops in two industrial areas within Baghdad city (Al-Sheikh Omar and Al-Rasheed camp regions) were recruited to the study during the period from March to May 2012. Thirty non-exposed students and employees in the college o

The caliphs of Tukalti Able III (Tiglath-pileser) sustained their extension and enclosure strategy whom they were highly talented with outstanding potentialities. They performed their political plan of extinguishingthe ambitions of the upper class and the internal uprisings. The Assyrian Kingdom, in the eighth century BC reached to the highest degree of expansion that no other ancient Iraqi kingdom had reached It dominated the whole near eastbut it did not have absolute command due to the subsequent uprisings that out bursted in the regions attached to the kingdom near the borders.

يعد الربط بين جدلية ما هو كائن وما يجب أن يكون فيما يتعلق بمكانة القوة في المدرك الاستراتيجي الأمريكي وإشكالية توظيفها، من المتلازمات الذهنية الراسخة في التفكير الاستراتيجي الأمريكي، لاسيما بعد أحداث 11 أيلول 2001 وحربي أفغانستان والعراق، والتي كانت من المحفزات الأساسية للبحث عن توظيف بدائل أو وسائل فاعلة تعزز مخرجات الأداء الاستراتيجي الأمريكي بما يصب في المحصلة النهائية في جانب تكتيل القدرات الاستراتيجية
