Corrеlation bеtwееn Dual-Еnеrgy X-Ray Absorptiomеtry and Panoramic Mandibular Indicеs in Prеdiction of Bonе Minеral Dеnsity in Postmеnopausal Fеmalеs
...Show More Authors

Background: Ostеoporosis is a systеmic disеasе of thе bonе that is charactеrizеd by rеducеd bonе mass, which lеads to incrеasеd bonе fragility and fracturеparticularly in postmеnopausal womеn.Thе aims of study was toеvaluatе thе rеlationship bеtwееn mandibular radiomorphomеtric indicеs obtainеd on digital panoramic radiographswith thе bonе minеral dеnsitiеs of thе lumbar spinееvaluatеd using dual-еnеrgy X-ray absorptiomеtry (DXA) scan, in a population of ostеoporotic and non-ostеoporotic fеmalеs. Matеrials and mеthods: In panoramic imagеs obtainеd from 60 fеmalе individuals dividеd еqually into thrее groups: controls (20-30 yеars), non-ostеoporotic post-mеnopausal agеd 50 yеars and abovе and ostеoporotic post-mеnopausal agеd 50 yеars and abovе, thе mеan was calculatеd for mandibular cortical width (MCW), panoramic mandibular indеx (PMI), mandibular cortical indеx (MCI) and gonial anglе indеx (GAI) valuеs mеasurеd in thе right and lеft sidеs of thе mandiblе. Bonе minеral dеnsity (BMD) valuеs wеrе mеasurеd by dual еnеrgy X-ray absorptiomеtry (DXA) scan. Rеsults: Significant positivе corrеlation (r) was obsеrvеd bеtwееn bonе minеral dеnsity of lumbar vеrtеbraе and MCW (r=0.706) and PMI (r=0.668) of mandiblе, and a nеgativе corrеlation was obsеrvеd bеtwееn MCI and BMD of lumbar vеrtеbraе (r=-0.716). Whilе GAI did not show any significant diffеrеncе in rеlation to bonе minеral dеnsity. Conclusion: This study showеd that MCW, PMI and MCI indicеs wеrе usеful for idеntifying fеmalеs with low skеlеtal (BMD), whilе GAI was indеpеndablе in dеtеcting ostеoporosis.

Undermining the Familiar and Embodiment Content in Arabic Calligraphy
...Show More Authors

Contrary to deconstruction and its destructive pursuit, the concept of undermining the familiar seeks to refute the constants and its known limitations. It is done through the process of receiving and what is imposed by the formation of the word or text or the structural and design structure in general, along with the Arabic calligraphy in particular. This is based on the recipient's understanding and interpretation of the dual phenomenon and the content's manifestation. More accurately, the disclosure of its reality through its expressive phenomenology; for that sake, the research was devoted to studying “undermining the familiar and embodiment content in Arabic calligraphy” including four chapters. The first chapter comprised

Populism in the Middle East: Discourse and Comparative Characteristics
...Show More Authors

Abstract: The premise of the study is that populism is a process of building political views and critical intellectual orientations among the general public. It is transformed into mass beliefs by mobilizing the society ideologically and continuously in order to reach or control the circle of authority. We distributed the study topics to four sections: In the second, we will discuss the contents of contemporary populism and how other forms of populism evolved historically. The third is to discuss the political discourse of populism among the military regimes and the comparative Islamic parties in the Middle East, especially in terms of the essence and the intellectual foundations. The fourth section seeks to examine the characteristics o

Climate Changes and Societal Stability in Iraq: Proposed Measures
...Show More Authors

Iraq is considered one of the countries most susceptible to the negative impacts of climate change. According to international reports, it is classified as among the top five most affected by climate change in the world, leading to economic resource shortages and an increase in water scarcity, which exposes societal stability in Iraq to a threat.  This may result in social disintegration and civil conflicts, so climate changes are considered one of the most dangerous crises affecting societal stability in Iraq during this stage.  In this context, the research attempts to trace the causes of climate change and their effects on societal stability in Iraq and suggest some necessary measures to confront them in the future.  The resea

Pilot Based Channel Estimation and Synchronization in OFDM System
...Show More Authors

Channel estimation and synchronization are considered the most challenging issues in Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) system. OFDM is highly affected by synchronization errors that cause reduction in subcarriers orthogonality, leading to significant performance degradation. The synchronization errors cause two issues: Symbol Time Offset (STO), which produces inter symbol interference (ISI) and Carrier Frequency Offset (CFO), which results in inter carrier interference (ICI). The aim of the research is to simulate Comb type pilot based channel estimation for OFDM system showing the effect of pilot numbers on the channel estimation performance and propose a modified estimation method for STO with less numb

Integrity and Security in Cloud Computing Environment: A Review
...Show More Authors

Cloud computing is a newly developed concept that aims to provide computing resources in the most effective and economical manner. The fundamental idea of cloud computing is to share computing resources among a user group. Cloud computing security is a collection of control-based techniques and strategies that intends to comply with regulatory compliance rules and protect cloud computing-related information, data apps, and infrastructure. On the other hand, data integrity is a guarantee that the digital data are not corrupted, and that only those authorized people can access or modify them (i.e., maintain data consistency, accuracy, and confidence). This review presents an overview of cloud computing concepts, its importance in many
