Study the Prevalence, Characteristics of Mothers and Associated Risk Factors of Pica Eating among Pregnant Women
Eating disorder is a common phenomenon accompanying pregnancy including ingestioning non-nutrtitve substances. Causes of pica are uncertain. The purpose of this study therofre is to assesse prevalnce, characteretics and risk factos of pica among Kurdish pregnant women. A cross sectioal study was conducted in Iraqi Kurdistan and the information regarding sociodemographic infromation, prevalence and characterestics of and risk facros were collected. Four hundred woment were registered and interviewed for this study. The resuslts: data showed that prevalence of pica was 60.5% (242), and the most frequenct forms of pica eaten were pagophagia and geaphagia and amylophagia by 29.7% (119), 25.3% (101) and 12.5% (50) respectively. Data showed that pica is related to mother education (P=0.011), mother occupation (P=0.002), living place( P=0.011), health complication duering pregnancy ( P=0.018) and affects bread feeding (P=0.040). Baby gender, mother age, Iron suppelemtation, hisotry of child abortion and economic satisfacton weren not signicantly associated to pica eating. The results also showed that psychlogical factors for pica eating was reduce nausia, amilearate stress and axiety and very fewer pregnant used to control hunger. Conclusion: Mother should check for any health complication before pregnancy and receive enough and regualr check as well as edcuate themselves regarding consequence of pica. Also psychological consultation is important throughout pregnancy period
Supplement-Duo Modules
In this note we consider a generalization of the notion of duo modules namely supplement duo modules. where an R module M is called a supplement duo module if every supplement submodule of M is a fully invariant. Many results about this concept are given. Also we study when the direct sum of supplement duo modules is supplement duo,and relationships between a supplement dou module and other modules
Textile dye wastewater characteristics and constituents of synthetic effluents : a critical review
Textile industries are responsible for one of the major environmental pollution problems in the world, because they release undesirable dye effluents. Textile wastewater contains dyes mixed with various contaminants at a variety of ranges. Therefore, environmental legislation commonly obligates textile factories to treat these effluents before discharge into the receiving watercourses. The treatment efficiency of any pilot-scale study can be examined by feeding the system either with real textile effluents or with artificial wastewater having characteristics, which match typical textile factory discharges. This paper presents a critical review of the currently available literature regarding typical and real characteristics of the textile effluents, and also constituents including chemicals used for preparing simulated textile wastewater containing dye, as well as the treatments applied for treating the prepared effluents. This review collects the scattered information relating to artificial textile wastewater constituents and organises it to help researchers who are required to prepare synthetic wastewater. These ingredients are also evaluated based on the typical characteristics of textile wastewater, and special constituents to simulate these characteristics are recommended. The processes carried out during textile manufacturing and the chemicals corresponding to each process are also discussed

E-learning adoption in higher education in Jordan: vision, reality and change
This paper discusses the implementation of an e-learning program at a Jordanian University (Al-Ahliyya Amman University). The program originally aimed to establish a virtual university which offers totally online courses but due to a number of reasons there had to be some changes in the implementation process. The paper discusses such changes and challenges faced by AAU in implementing its e-learning program from an IS project management point of view. Findings suggest that implementing such projects needs careful consideration of a variety of issues to ensure that the objectives are achieved. The case provides rich insights to other educational institutions wishing to implement such projects
Superluminal light group velocity in tapered optical microfibers
Superluminal light group velocity was formerly reported in anomalous dispersion, nonlinear amplification of light pulse, high-gain lasers' cavities, and waveguides. Motivated by a recent observation of light acceleration in optical microfiber [1], the possibility of attaining the light group velocity exceeds its value in vacuum is investigated. The investigation of superluminal velocity is in tapered optical microfiber that has a radius decreases with propagation axis by a factor 10-3. Our results show the possibility of attaining superluminal group velocity in this microfiber at length of about 1080Āµm. At this length the instantaneous acceleration of light is found to be 13Ć1019 m/s2 which its corresponding Unruh temperature is 0.527K
An Enhanced AODV Protocol for Avoiding Black Holes in MANET
Ā© 2018 The Authors. Published by Elsevier Ltd. Black hole attack is one of the well-known attacks on Mobile Ad hoc Networks, MANET. This paper discusses this problem and proposes a new approach based on building a global reputation system that helps AODV protocol in selecting the best path to destination, when there is more than one possible route. The proposed protocol enhances the using of watchdogs in AODV by collecting the observations and broadcasting them to all nodes in the network using a low overhead approach. Moreover, the proposed protocol takes into account the detection challenge when a black hole continuously moves
ET-Hollow Module and ET-Lifting Module
Let M be a R-module;, where R be a commutative; ring with identity,
In this paper, we defined a new types of module namely āET-hollow(ET-holl.) and ET-lifting(ET-lift.) modulesā. An R-module M is called ET-holl. module, if for all sub-module H of M then HM. An R-module M is called An R-module M is called ET-lifting module, if for all H M , there exists X M and LM, such that H=X+L. We give many characterizations of ET-holl. and ET-lifting modules, Also we give the relation between T-hollow and ET-holl. and relation between T-lifting modules and ET-lift. modules.
