Evaluation of the Expression of SIM and NDM Genes in Pseudomonas Aeruginosa Isolated from Clinical Sources
Authors: Dawood Eilaf Mohammed , Alkazaz Abdulkareem A.
Published: October 2024

Pseudomonas aeruginosa has recently been labeled a major threat to public health due to its resistance to almost all commonly used antibiotics. Many factors have been suggested for P. aeruginosa's antibiotic resistance. The goal of this study is to find out what role SIM and NDM, which are related to carbapenem resistance, play in P. aeruginosa isolates from local clinical sources. In this study, out of 110 different clinical specimens, 50 were identified as P. aeruginosa from hospitalized patients. All of the isolates were characterized based on the biochemical test and confirmed using the VitekII compact system. P. aeruginosa isolates were tested for antibiotic susceptibility using 8 antibiotics, including: amikacin, tobramycin, ciprofloxacin, levofloxacin, imipenem, meropenem, piperacillin/tazobactam, ticarcillin, and clavulanate. Susceptibility testing results revealed that every isolate was highly resistant to Piperacillin/Tazobactam, with lower resistance to Ticarcillin/clavulanate (TCC). Using the broth dilution method, the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) of P. aeruginosa isolates resistant to meropenem ranged from 32µg/100µl to 128 µg/100µl. The EDTA combined disc test was used to detect the ability of P. aeruginosa isolates to produce carbapenemase, and the results showed that all isolates were carbapenemase producers. Additionally, conventional PCR confirmed the identification of P. aeruginosa using 16S. Real-time PCR was adopted to assess the expression of the NDM and SIM genes in 25 of the identified P. aeruginosa isolates. The mean of gene expression results for NDM showed increased expression compared to the control sample of 1.74, while the SIM gene showed expression of 0.95. These genes, SIM and NDM in class B (which are important for resistance in Pseudomonas aeruginosa), result from chromosomal changes that mutate the membrane permeability flow pump, causing excessive expression.
Site selection for Proposed Construction Using the Electrical Resistivity Method and Some Geotechnical Tests of Soil At Al-Nahrawan Area, Baghdad, Iraq
Authors: Al-Rawi Nabaa A. , Al-Samarrai Thair Thamer
Published: October 2024

The study site represents an investigation of a proposed construction site in Baghdad City, in the Al-Nahrawan area, using 2D electrical resistivity and some geotechnical tests for soil samples. A Wenner-Schlumberger configuration was used for 4 parallel lines, each line 120 m long, with 1m spacing between electrodes. Interpretation is made by RES2DINV software. The results showed areas with relatively high resistivity caused by mud cracks and low- resistivity caused by water content (wet soil). The groundwater depth ranges from 5.5 to 5.7 m; these values were matched by comparing with nearby wells using a sounder device. Soil samples from different depths ranging from 0.5 to 4 m were analysed, and the samples consisted mainly of clay > 88% with low liquid and plastic limits >50 (USCS). It is classified as CL, which means Low plasticity. The electric method and laboratory tests were effective in identifying the subsurface image.
Improved RNN Model for Real-Time Human Activity Recognition
Authors: Muhamad Azhee Wria , Mohammed Aree Ali
Published: October 2024

This study focuses on the automatic detection of human actions in video streams. The requirement to detect what human activities happen in videos is recognition of human action due to significant differences in people's visual and motion appearance and actions, camera perspective shifts, moving background, occlusions, noise, and a massive amount of video data. The human activity recognition challenge involves identifying physical activities carried out by individuals or groups based on traces of movements, including gestures, actions, interactions, and group activities. The detection of concepts usually requires additional annotations for the training dataset.  In this paper, useful methods for categorizing human action recognition are discussed. The current models are an accurate deep learning method that is based on models that have been changed to be more useful.  The large disparities that result from the backdrop and the size of the objects have prevented the identification of activities in videos from being fully and effectively addressed. The main objective is to achieve better accuracy for the Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) method, which was used to improve the Recurrent Neural Networks (RNN) model. In this paper, LSTM is used to come up with models for different action recognition tasks. The model was made better by making the LSTM have four layers and putting 128 units, 64 units, 32 units, and 16 units in each layer, respectively. In addition, the performance evaluation of deep learning-based approaches has been compared to other related works. Therefore, an improved approach to RNN is proposed to recognize human actions. To classify the videos, a multilayer RNN with a specific type of LSTM is used to extract features from video sequences.  The UCF-101 and UCF Sports human action recognition datasets are utilized in this study for both training and assessment. Test findings demonstrate that the suggested strategy achieved increased accuracy. Finally, the enhanced RNN model's total model accuracy in the UCF-101 dataset is 93.78% and 95.70% for the UCF Sport dataset.

Objetivo: Identificar por medio de una revisión de literatura la evidencia más reciente y relevante de pacientes con VIH y el efecto de ART en el estado oral y periodontal.
Materiales y Métodos:   Se realizó una búsqueda de artículos clínicos en PubMed, Science Direct LILACS y Google Académico, entre los años 2011 y 2023. Los criterios de selección: pacientes con ART para VIH y evaluación del estado oral/periodontal. Se incluyeron ensayos clínicos, revisiones sistemáticas y metaanálisis.
Resultados: Inicialmente se identificaron 173 artículos, se excluyeron 135 encontrando al final solo dos revisiones sistemáticas y ningún ensayo clínico. Una revisión sistemática presentó 18 artículos con 1632 pacientes adultos con enfermedad periodontal (EP) y terapia antirretroviral altamente activa (HAART) y la otra en niños con 12 artículos y 1002 pacientes <18 años revisando estado periodontal y lesiones orales.
Conclusión: La HAART reduce la prevalencia de manifestaciones orales en niños con VIH; mas no así con la EP en pacientes adultos con HAART, a excepción de la gingivitis necrotizante.
Articulator Characteristics Of THE Cycles Of The Historical-Fantasy Romans Of David Gemmell" The Lion Of Macedon " and "Troy"
Authors: Qader Harem Haider
Published: October 2024

David Gemmell's historical fantasy novels, particularly those centered around the Trojan War and Alexander of Macedonia, masterfully intertwine historical authenticity with imaginative elements, creating narratives that both entertain and offer fresh perspectives on well-known historical events. This study delves into Gemmell's unique approach to historical fantasy, analyzing how he reimagines legendary episodes such as the siege of Troy and the life of Alexander the Great. Through a detailed examination of Gemmell's works, including The Lion of Macedon and the Troy trilogy, this research highlights his ability to blend historical accuracy with mythological creativity. The analysis reveals that Gemmell's characters, rooted in history yet enhanced by fantastical traits, resonate deeply with modern readers by addressing timeless themes such as heroism, fate, and the human condition. The study finds that Gemmell's integration of historical figures with mythological elements not only enriches the narrative complexity of his works but also engages readers in a more profound exploration of the ethical and philosophical dimensions of history. His portrayal of characters like Alexander and the heroes of Troy balances their legendary status with human vulnerabilities, making them relatable and compelling to a contemporary audience. Additionally, the research uncovers that Gemmell's approach to historical fantasy significantly influences the reader's perception of historical events, offering an alternative lens through which to understand and appreciate the past.
The Dichotomy within Masculinity in Fadia Faqir's The Cry of the Dove: A Self-Orientalist Approach
Authors: Badbeis Omer Salem
Published: October 2024

The representation of masculinity is a prevalent theme in literary studies that critique Orientalist discourse within Western literature. This exploration often highlights the dichotomy inherent in the portrayal of masculinity, contrasting the representations of Western and Eastern men in Orientalist texts. In her article "Re-Orientalism: The Perpetration and Development of Orientalism by Orientals," Lisa Lau (2009) introduces the concepts of 're-Orientalism' and 'self-Orientalism,' arguing that Orientalist depictions are not only perpetuated in Western narratives but are also internalized within Eastern literary productions. Lau posits that writers from Eastern backgrounds frequently do not wholly reject these Orientalist narratives; instead, they engage with and occasionally affirm them, thereby reinforcing a binary opposition between the East and West in their works. Despite the relevance of this theory, the contributions of Anglophone Arab authors, such as Fadia Faqir, have not been thoroughly analyzed through the lens of Self-Orientalism. Consequently, this study seeks to investigate the representation of masculinity in Faqir's The Cry of the Dove (2007) within the framework of Self-Orientalism, with a focus on determining whether Faqir challenges or internalizes Orientalist stereotypes. This theoretical perspective suggests that Anglophone authors tend to internalize Orientalist stereotypes, constructing a dichotomy that attributes negative characteristics to Eastern individuals while ascribing positive traits to their Western counterparts. Through a detailed examination of male characters in the novel, this study reveals that Faqir internalizes these Orientalist representations, thereby establishing a contrasting portrayal of masculinity: Arab and Muslim men are depicted as lustful, cruel, and hypocritical, in stark contrast to their Western counterparts, who are characterized as respectful, tender, and virtuous.

This study presents a pragmatic approach focusing on the meaning of speech and knowledge regarding the undergraduate students' understanding and utilization of speech act ‘request’ within the Department of English Language at the College of Arts. Quantitative approach has been employed to analyze request strategies by using an open-ended questionnaire comprising sixteen diverse scenarios to gather data on various request speech acts. The study investigates the effectiveness of instructional interventions in developing students' proficiency in this speech act.
The findings from the pre-tests revealed that students exhibited comparable performance across all three strategies: direct requests, conventionally indirect requests, and non-conventionally indirect requests have been assessed in terms of both awareness and production levels. Despite the initial similarity in performance among learners, substantial improvements have been observed after the instructional phase. Specifically, individuals within the experimental group demonstrated notable enhancements in their awareness and production of requests, coupled with a decreased reliance on direct request strategies. These findings underscore the potential for pragmatics instruction rich in input to enhance learners' identification and utilization of suitable pragmatic elements within diverse social contexts. Overall, the study highlights the importance of pragmatic education in foreign language learning, suggesting its efficacy in fostering learners' pragmatic competence.
التداخل النصي في الشعر العربي القديم (تمشي الهوينا )
Authors: شهد فاطمة ضمد
Published: October 2024

إن موضوع التداخل النصي قد ورد في الشعر العربي القديم لكن بمفهوم آخر، ويدلُّ تداخل النصوص الشعرية لدى الشعراء على مدى تأثرهم أو تعلقهم مع النص أو المبدع ، وتعددت أشكال التداخل النصي وأنواعه في الشعر ، وأظهر التداخل النصي انصهار شخصية المبدع فيما يقدمه من إبداع ، وتناص الشعراء مع الأعشى دليل على إبداع هذا الشاعر الجاهلي في تأثيره على المتلقي ، ودليل ثقافة الشعراء الذين تناصوا معه في نفس اللفظة سواء كان التناص معنوياً أو شكلياً ، و دليل اطلاعهم على التراث وقريحتهم  اللغوية ، ينطلق الشاعر في تعامله مع التناص من عقله الباطن الذي تجمعت فيه نصوص متعددة قديمة وحديثة وظاهرة  أو خفية فيخرج نصاً إبداعياً جديداً .

As one of the crucial structural parameters for the pintle injectors, the design of the skip distance ratio is still heavily empirical-dependent in engineering, and the intrinsic correlations between the skip distance ratio and spray characteristics of liquid–liquid pintle injectors are also unclear. Inspired by the observations that the instability of axial liquid film exerts significant influence on the downstream spray behaviors of a liquid–liquid pintle injector, the influence of the skip distance ratio on the instability of the axial liquid film and the subsequent spray characteristics of the pintle injector was experimentally investigated. The spray steadiness of the pintle injector was evaluated based on the instantaneous images using the proper orthogonal decomposition technique, and the effects of the skip distance ratio and the momentum ratio on the spray features were analyzed. Furthermore, a proactive strategy was proposed to adjust the liquid film instability by modifying the outer wall morphology of the pintle post, and the verification experiments were carried out based on three different wall morphologies. It was discovered that the rough wall enhances the axial liquid film instability and promotes the liquid sheet breakup and atomization of the pintle injector. These results provide new insights and valuable references for the optimization design of pintle injectors.
