Published: July 2022

The Cucurbitaceae family's pumpkin seeds are often viewed as industrial waste and discarded. In many regions of the world, seeds are eaten raw, boiled, or roasted, but only for personal consumption. Because they are high in protein, fiber, minerals, and vitamins, they may be considered essential for the food industry. Because the seeds are a byproduct of the pumpkin fruit, they are less expensive, and their inclusion in a variety of foods may result in higher nutritious content at a lower cost. Pumpkin seeds have been found to be beneficial to one's health. More research and study on the transformation of these agro industrial waste products into valuable materials is most likely a huge step in the right direction for worldwide efforts in food sustainability.

It is being used in a range of neuromuscular pain syndromes such as shoulder impingement syndrome in current study. In physical therapy, it is narrowly referred to as an intramuscular procedure for the treatment of myofascial trigger points (MTrPs). Objective: To compare the conventional physical therapy with and without dry needling on pain, range of motion, and functional disability in patients with shoulder impingement syndrome. Methods: It was randomized controlled trial conducted on 66 patients of shoulder impingement syndrome based on inclusion criteria and divided randomly allocated equally in two groups of 33 in each of conventional therapy and dry needling group. The outcome measures used were numeric pain rating scale for pain, DASH for hand arm function and shoulder ranges of motion. The SPSS 25.0 was used to analyse data. The descriptive statistics was applied, and inferential statistics was applied based on findings of tests of normality. Results: The results showed that the post interventional pain score was 1.43±1.37, 32.11 for conventional group and for experimental group that of 1.60±1.02, 34.89 with non-significant difference 0.544, while DASH score was 27.02±13.22, 38.85 for conventional group and for experimental group that of 19.92±11.20, 28.15 with significant difference 0.024. The results for flexion, abduction, internal and external rotation were non-significant with p value >0.05. Conclusions: It was concluded that although there was significant improvement in pain, range of motion and function in both of dry needling and conventional groups, however, pain and shoulder ranges improved equally in both groups without a statistically significant difference while that of disability improved significantly in dry needling group

Published: July 2022

Polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) is a common endocrine disorder. It is characterized by changes in Doppler indices of ovarian arteries. These changes are more prominent than the morphological changes of ovary and uterus. Objective: The aim of the analysis was to calculate the percentage of deranged ovarian artery in patients with polycystic ovarian syndrome ovarian patients. Methods: This observational study was conducted on total 225 women of reproductive age ranging between 18-40 years presented with the PCOS at the hospital. The gold standard for diagnosis of deranged ovarian artery in PCOS is transvaginal ultrasound. The Doppler ultrasound helps to calculate the resistive and pulsatility indices of ovarian artery. The pulsatility Index and Resistive Index was calculated and percentage frequency was estimated from the calculated results. Ovarian blood flow is deranged if its indices are above or below the normal range. The resistive index (RI) measured by Doppler imaging was between 0.80 to 0.95 and pulsatility index (PI) range was between 2.01 to 4.30. The data were arranged according to BMI of patients. The age and duration of PCOS were also considered for data stratification. Results: The study showed that about 191 (85%) patients out of 225 with PCOS have deranged ovarian artery Doppler. The range of pulsatility index was between 2.01 to 4.30 while the range of resistive index was between 0.80 to 0.95. The mean duration of PCOS and means age of patient was calculated. It was found that the deranged ovarian blood flow was more common in the women of age 27-5.9 years. 18.4-7.1 months was the mean duration of PCOS. The mean BMI of the patient was 27.2-4.9kg/m2.Conclusion: A significant number of women suffering from PCOS have deranged ovarian artery Doppler indices. This study evaluated the putative role of Doppler indices in diagnosis of suspicious PCOS patients.

Coronary heart disease (CHD) is a major cause of morbidity and mortality all around the world. Incidence of the complications of myocardial infarction (MI) had decreased to less than 1% since invention of the percutaneous coronary intervention, although the mortality results from myocardial infarction had decreased in recent years, however the burden of this disease have not ceased. Modern treatment of MI is basically built on any of the clinical evidences that are based on many of the studies that have been studied from previous thirty years. Clinical practice’s evolution had significantly decreased morbidity or mortality linked by this disorder. Severe complications of the myocardial infarction include cardiogenic shock, inferior myocardial infarction, pericarditis and noteworthy right ventricular infarction. These complications are very rare; however, their reputation is neglected for the possible failure to manage early diagnosis and appropriate treatment. Inferior wall myocardial infarction accounts for 40- 50% of all the myocardial infarctions and are mostly seen as having a more promising diagnosis than the anterior wall infarctions. Pericarditis is the common disorder and a complication that arises after the myocardial infarction and has multiple causes. This is present in many secondary care and primary care settings. Frequently pericarditis has been often self-restricted, and the non-steroidal anti-inflammatory agents (NSAIDS) remains treatment of first line in the simple cases. Pharmacological management of complications includes beta blockers, Angiotensin Converting Enzyme Inhibitors, Antiplatelet Agents, and Non-Steroidal Anti-Inflammatory Drugs

There has been limited research into the effects of fluorosis on organic tissues for example bones.  The biomechanical, histology and biochemical properties of fluorosed bones have still not been studied in alveolar bone, which, like extremities, is an important component of the periodontal tissue. Objective: The goal of this research was to compare the histology of fluorosed femur bones to that of non-fluorosed femur bones. Method: 40 non-fluorosed and fluorosed healthy bone (femoral) samples were tested using a microscope to compare and assess the histology of non-fluorosed with fluorosed bone. Results: When comparing the non-fluorosed group (11.835.21, 9.853.45) to the fluorosed group (7.724.42, 6.702.42), bone of cortical and cancellous cellularity was shown to be substantial in term of statistics. The non-fluorosed and fluorosed bone had the same trabecular density statistically not significant, p-value is equal to 0.726]. Nonfluorosed bone had thick trabeculae, while fluorosed bone had short and thin trabeculae. Conclusion: The identified histologic variations could affect the pathogenesis of periodontitis / the efficacy of periodontal therapy. In widespread fluorosed regions, dental fluoride could likely be identified as an important public health issue.

GENDER EQUALITY IS NOT ENOUGH: WHAT TEACHERS HAVE TAUGHT ME ABOUT JUSTICE?
Authors: M. Aquino Avelina
Published: July 2022

In a democratic society, people make decisions on the benefit of and justice to the majority. Justice is taught in the classroom if it is reflective of gender equality. Gender equality in the classroom means creating a learning environment in which students are participants, in which all positions are equally respected without necessarily being equally valued. The researchers used the 32 student participants from Bachelor of Technical Teacher Education (BTTE) in the College of Education of Bulacan State University-Pulilan Extension during the 1st semester of school year 2019-2020. A descriptive-correlational method was utilized; Pearson r was used to determine the relationship between gender equality and justice teaching. Also, z-test was used to test the significance. When it comes to gender equality, empowerment (EMP) stood out among the five dimensions. In terms of teaching justice in the classroom, both inequality (INE) and bigotry (BIG) were on top of discrimination (DIS). It was found that there is a moderate positive correlation between gender equality and justice in the classroom. For these findings, the researchers concluded that 1) empowerment dominates gender equality in the classroom; 2) both inequality and bigotry are evident in the classroom; 3) since there is a moderate positive correlation between gender equality and justice in the classroom, the researchers rejected the null hypothesis. Conclusions were drawn; and recommendations were offered.
MUSIC AS A POLITICAL VOICE: INTERRELATION BETWEEN NOTES AND THOUGHTS
Authors: Huiqi Quan , Li Jia  , Jing Ning
Published: July 2022

Individuals are motivated to continue working by their belief in their own political effectiveness, which is especially true when the effects of protest actions are clearly linked to the acts that triggered them. This paradigm, on the other hand, has developed through time as a result of its emphasis on the human aspect while overlooking structural limits that limit the efficiency of the players in the situation. Because of this, the methodologies for measuring political success that is described in the next section show two separate but connected aspects: internal efficacy and external effectiveness, which are discussed in more detail below. When we talk about internal efficacy, we are referring to beliefs about one’s own ability to comprehend and participate successfully in politics, whereas when we talk about external efficacy, we are referring to beliefs about the responsiveness and competency of state authorities and institutions in responding to citizens demands.
ORAL DISTILLATES AND POSTCOLONIAL TEMPER IN ADEMOLA DASYLVA’S SONGS OF ODAMOLUGBE
Authors: OYETIMI Kehinde Olawale
Published: July 2022

This paper engages the self-validating domain of orality as a valuable and potent field in the depiction of postcolonial Africa, in particular Nigeria. The paper accounts for orality as the authentic core of the mode of self-assertion, continued self-existence and the consistent (re)validation of how traditional societies structured their worldviews and cultural aesthetics. It argues that African writers still utilise the aesthetic provisions that their oral backcloth and oral past provide in the identification, (re)appraisal and the representation of the postcolonial situation in Africa. Engaging Ademola Dasylva’s Songs of Odamolugbe as primary text and data, the paper examines and explores features of Yoruba oral poetry and allied aggregates that the Yoruba traditional culture offers. This is clearly realized and apprehended in the crafting of the collection of poems and the overarching thematic foci and direction. These representations are captured within two extremes. Employing insights from postcolonial literary theory in its critique of the primary text, the paper situates the enervating frustrations, collapse of industry, economic inanities, atmosphere of fear, tensions, widespread underdevelopment, neocolonial excesses, prevalent hunger, deep-seated corruption and a general apathy to life and living as daily experienced in postcolonial Africa and Nigeria. As part of its finding, the paper attests that Dasylva’s Songs of Odamolugbe relishes a completed precolonial past where African communities maintained a communal cultural ownership of their existence and presided over their own affairs. It concludes that the poetry collection decries and rejects the morbid realities that characterize the postcolonial African experience.

Authors: Almusawi Inaam Ghadeer
Published: July 2022

The fast transition of accounting information systems from manual to electronic media impacts the financial reporting process linked to information technology. First, significant dependence on electronic accounting information systems may expose the company’s databases to information security threats, resulting in higher audit risks. As such, this study seeks to demonstrate how information technology governance structures may aid in protecting information in the context of electronic accounting information systems. Second, the study investigates the impact of improving information technology governance in Iraqi private banks in decreasing audit risks using the COBIT framework for internal control. The results indicate that implementing IT governance mechanisms in Iraqi private banks can reduce audit risks identified by external auditors. This framework increases the reliability of accounting information systems and enhances information security in the context of electronic accounting information systems. In addition, the field findings indicated a positive and statistically significant relationship between audit risk reduction and the dimensions of information technology governance (mechanisms and automation, policies, plans, and procedures, responsibility and accountability, skills and experience, knowledge and communication, and goal setting and measurement). Finally, the study proposes that Iraqi private banks implement the COBIT framework for internal control to govern information technology and risk management in electronic accounting information systems

Published: July 2022

The main problem currently experienced by the countries of the world is the problem of unemployment, as the latter has become a social phenomenon of universal status, whether society is advanced or developing. After being part of the economic cycle, unemployment has become a structural problem, particularly in developing countries, where unemployment is generally exacerbated by the failure of development efforts, worsening external debt, and implementing strict financial discipline programs. Most countries in the Arab world have pursued different development paths for economic growth. Still, these paths have been unsustainable for a long time, as fluctuations in oil revenues during the mid-1980s have affected the results of development policies, creating several problems requiring economic reforms and restructuring. In all its forms and guises, unemployment has had a significant impact on the living standards of the workforce. Accordingly, lead to changes in the people's real income, resulting in poor purchasing power, changing consumption, and a significant loss to the national economy due to its survival below the level of total employment. Unemployment also leads to waste of human resources, particularly those with a high stock of human capital.

The paper aims to extrapolate the nature of domestic credit in Iraq by focusing on the period 2011/14 and focusing on the study's core focus. It explores the overall effects on the variables of economic activity and the population's overall well-being. The results indicate that credit changes in Iraq have not played a clear role under the reality of banks and their work as they are still constrained by many restrictions of an economic and political nature. Nevertheless, domestic credit is critical for encouraging banking and stock market operations and recruiting FDI, which enhances the banking system's and stock market's competence, impacting economic activity and energy consumption. It also enables increased access to credit and financial services and the building of cash for future investment since providing credit is a critical component in economic development. Nevertheless, the results reveal unequivocally that industrialization and financial development are necessary components of Iraq's long-run economic success.
Unemployment In Iraq: Causes, Consequences, and Treatment
Authors: Kadhim Hasan Latif , Almusawi Abdulwahab
Published: July 2022

Unemployment is one of the primary problems that most contemporary economic systems suffer from in the world, which works to bring about negative consequences on the welfare and security of society. Therefore, governments are working hard to reduce their unemployment rates, mitigate its effects, and develop economic strategies that are happy in providing job opportunities. Unemployment means stopping a part of the labor force in the economy despite the availability of the ability and willingness to work. Unemployment usually results from an imbalance in the labor market due to demand and supply considerations. Unemployment wastes the workforces of a large part of society and may lead to social violence and political unrest outbreaks when it reaches high levels. In Iraq, unemployment has deep roots that go back to the 1980s. The government began to face the problem of providing adequate job opportunities for the nearly one million people who served in the Iran-Iraq war. Unemployment has had dire consequences for the economy, society, and the Iraqi state. These effects include the spread of poverty, deprivation, and the deterioration of development rates with all its indicators.

Published: July 2022

Total quality management (TQM) for state-owned companies is essential since it influences economic activity. Moreover, it represents a crucial part of improving the quality of financial reporting via greater control over information security, which concentrates on aspects that prevent the occurrence of high risks of deviations or manipulations. In addition to its efficiency, objectivity and activation of quality information can be transmitted. These communication procedures can be auto-enabled via information systems that save and share information among all parties by setting the process sequence. The processes will be codified on the transaction according to activation measures of inputs quality, commerce, and financial data outputs and then analyzed over accounting information. The control levels on the financial information technology environment applications are set to three classes: preventive control, detective control (diagnostic), and corrective power. As already mentioned, a suggested pattern was built which identifies the type of relationship between independent variables (requirements of total quality management) and the dependent (quality of financial reporting) where the comprehensive quality management (TQM) has been compatible with the quality of financial reporting.

Role of Good Governance In Nation-Building: A Case of Iraq
Authors: Bekheet Heider Nima
Published: July 2022

In Iraq, the issue of access to good governance is very important for a variety of reasons, perhaps most notably its fall under US occupation for the period 2003-2011 when its political system was changed. Genuine human growth rediscovers the actual worth of human life, which has been distorted by successive wars and international sanctions, not to mention previous policies. Iraq also owns a massive wealth of enormous oil and gas reserves, as well as other resources, which requires a proper system to manage it, which may not be accessible in the first place, and is founded on the principles and practices of good governance. Another factor in this area is the nature of the Iraqi people, which is composed of numerous nationalities, religions, and sects, which may expose the country to a real crisis if a particular sect or nationality becomes dissatisfied with the current regime, as is currently the case in some provinces. This study seeks to re-emphasize what good governance is, the rationale for its emergence, and its various indicators, not to mention its role in nation-building, while also highlighting the most significant barriers to its application in Iraq, and thus pointing to the most critical ways to promote good governance in Iraq. The findings reveal that there are several barriers to obtaining and implementing good governance in Iraq, which are caused by a range of factors and need a very lengthy period of time to overcome

It is challenging to establish conditions for a flexible and uncontrolled legal phenomenon, such as the phenomenon of legal implantation, because it is changing by changing its constituent elements. Yet, we have tried to establish two conditions:  general conditions close to the legal transplant process, which can apply to almost all legal transplants. We called these conditions (verification conditions). Once these conditions are met, we are facing an integrated legal transplant. These conditions include; the first condition indicating there should be a transition of the legal base from one country to another. The value of this requirement is excellent in terms of the distinction between legal transplantation and other transfers of legal rules between countries. The second requirement of verification is that the legal law transferred is foreign of foreign origin, i.e., foreign from the receiving legal environment. The third condition is that the legal transplant should occur in the receiving state's legal system. As for the second type of conditions, which we called (conditions of success), they are conditions related to the success of the legal transplant and achieving its desired objectives, and this type of conditions falls under it a lot of sub-conditions, so we tried to put titles for these conditions characterized by the capacity of the meaning, to understand many details, which can not be searched to make them independent addresses,  These conditions are: the condition of legal participation and legal harmony, and this condition represents the fundamental foundations of the legal families, and the second condition is the cultivation of laws that have proved successful in the exporting country, and the importance of this condition lies in avoiding going into the experience of new statutes or has not yet succeeded.  This condition is urgent in the success of the legal transplant process in terms of the political will of the law to be implanted in terms of identifying its pros and cons, in addition to the awareness of this political will with the needs, problems, and desires of its society, which makes it choose the right lawyer for its social environment
Prospects for preserving Iraq's architectural heritage
Authors: Lafta Naseer Sabbar
Published: July 2022

The Iraqi Antiquities and Heritage Act No. 55 of 2002, through its provisions to the Archaeological Authority, allowed the disposal of heritage materials through specific legal conditions by displaying heritage materials to the public, preserving them, or evacuating heritage areas in the event of a threat to them, as well as the possibility of showing them for scientific study purposes, as well as to be communicated to the public in museums and exhibitions inside Iraq. However, all these legal conditions permitted by the legislator to the archaeological authority are not without dangers that may accompany them, including vandalism, extinction, demolition, theft, and fire, and this causes an irreparable loss. In this study, we try to establish the possibility of securing materials for Iraq's architectural heritage, which we are trying to provide through the general rules of the insurance contract. We divided this research into two types of research that were the first title on the concept of the danger of securing architectural heritage materials. The second topic is entitled The Benefits of this insurance by putting the insurance of architectural heritage materials into practice

Prioritizing educational achievements, notably higher education, is critical for economic and social growth in developing or developed countries. Educational institutions in general, whether universities, institutes, or others, seek to apply their academic programs to their inputs through the most advanced scientific methods to produce program-digesting outputs prepared for entry into the labor market. As a result, educational institutions are often classified according to many worldwide classifications, ranked sequentially according to the type in charge of this process and the criteria and indicators used. One of the most well-known classifications in this field is that of China's Shanghai Jiao Tong University. The Times THES-QS ranking of world universities THES QS World University Rankings, and a third classification, no less significant than the previous two, is that of the Spanish Webometrics website. Arab institutions have typically been excluded from higher ranks in these three rankings, save one of Saudi Arabia's universities. Nevertheless, it was listed among the top 200 institutions in the online metrics webometrics ranking when King Saud University was placed 99th after being ranked 100 in the second edition of 2010.
The Application of Time Series Analysis To Forecasting Baghdad's Electrical Energy Production: An Empirical Study
Authors: Alfredawy Ali
Published: July 2022

The behavior of time series is a significant issue in statistical sciences. Thus, forecasting power output is critical, given that energy is the lifeblood of life. Two approaches for prediction were chosen in this study: ARIMA-Box-Jenkins and Exponential Smoothing, and the two methods were compared to determine which way is the best for prediction. The actual production and predicted values were calculated using the standard of the root mean square error (RMSE). This research aims to evaluate the two approaches MAPE and MAE, and determine which one is the best for forecasting using the time series method. The findings indicate that the firm cannot produce and create power due to wars and sieges before 2003, terrorist attacks after 2003, and a lack of development plans. Additionally, the rise in population, which increases electricity demand, all of these factors contributed to a growing disparity between supply and consumption
Environmental Relationship In Investment Project Feasibility Studies
Authors: Lafta Abaas , Mohisin Ahmed
Published: July 2022

The paper discusses the theoretical concepts underlying the environmental feasibility study by defining the nature of the investment project, the theoretical frameworks for feasibility studies in general, and ecological feasibility in particular, to accomplish the paper's objective of emphasizing the environmental feasibility study's impact and significance for the project and society as a whole. The ecological research conducted by those responsible for the feasibility study concluded that it contributes to mitigating adverse effects on society. It accurately defines the expected returns on the project. One of the most critical recommendations must be made, which is a law granting a license to establish the project or not. The article seeks to elucidate the theoretical principles underpinning the examination of environmental feasibility and the implications for the project and society at large. The findings indicate that ecological feasibility studies reduce the potential risks associated with establishing specific projects that could harm society's and the environment's public health, and how critical they are for the project among feasibility studies (financial, legal, economic, etc.).
