Relationship between Self-Care Practices of Secondary School Students with Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus and Their Socio-Demographic Data
Diabetes in adolescence is a global public health issue that is getting more and more attention. It is a long-term metabolic condition defined by a partial or total lack of the hormone insulin. The key to effective control of diabetes is adherence to the complicated collection of chores that go into diabetic self-care practices. The adolescents spend (5-6) hours in school and during this time they are outside of parental care, so we need to monitor self-care practices of students with T1D. The aim of the study was to find out the relationship between self-care practices of secondary school students with type 1 diabetes mellitus and their sociodemographic data. Methods A descriptive (cross sectional) research design was used in this study. Sample size consist of (200) secondary school students. A non-probability (purposive) technique was used to collect data. Developed interview instrument was used in collect data. Data was gained in the al najaf center for diabetic and endocrine.

A number of statistical methods were used, represented by analysis Confirmatory construct validity, the Pearson correlation coefficient, to measure the type and degree of relationship between the study variables, structural reliability analysis of the measurement tool (Cronbach\u27s Alpha), and simple and multiple effect testing (structural equation modeling SEM), to determine differences in the sample answers, a set of The most important results are the presence of a positive correlation and a positive effect of the role of the overlapping waves strategy on entrepreneurial motivation
INVESTIGATION OF ASYMPTOMATIC BACTERIURIA IN A GROUP OF IRAQI PATIENTS WITH DIABETES MELLITUS TYPE 2 IN BAGHDAD CITY, IRAQ
Several studies have indicated that asymptomatic bacteriuria (ASB) is a frequent condition in diabetics and may lead to more severe urinary tract infections (UTIs). This study was conducted to determine the frequency of ASB in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus as well as the identification of the bacterial etiology of ASB in addition to the antibiotic sensitivity profile in a group of Iraqi patients. A total of 100 individuals were included in this study, 50 diabetic outpatients and 50 non-diabetics as a control group. Mid-stream urine specimens were collected from patients and tested using the urine dipstick test, microscopy and culture tests. It was shown that 90% of diabetic patients were culture positive and 10% were culture negative for bacteria. On the other hand, it was observed that 90% of non-diabetics had no bacterial growth in their urine specimens. The most isolated organisms were Staphylococcus aureus (34%), Enterobacter aerogenes (28%), and Klebsiella spp (10%). It was observed that S. aureus was completely resistant to ampicillin (100%), while only 30% of these isolates were resistant to ciprofloxacin. It was noted that S. aureus was the most isolated in the study, which is a clear change in the spectrum of the causative agent of these cases. Given the high prevalence of ASB in patients with type 2 diabetes, this study recommends that the diagnostic program for diabetic patients should include bacterial culture of their urine specimens to determine the antimicrobial resistance of isolated bacteria

VALUE RELEVANCE OF ACCOUNTING INFORMATION: INSIGHTS FROM IRAQ
This research investigates the value relevance of accounting information, namely earnings and book value of equity (separately and aggregately), related to stock market values and stock market returns models, for Iraqi services companies for the four years 2015 - 2018. The paper finds that, related to stock market values model, the value relevance of earnings and book value has increased separately; the value relevance for earnings increased while it is irrelevant for book value when they are associated. In the other hand and related to stock market returns model, the value relevance of earnings either separately or aggregately has increased while that of book value has decreased. Generally, it is shown that earnings figures can importantly demonstrate variances in stock market values and stock market returns compared with book value figures. Moreover, the findings show that earnings and book value separately are more value relevant in stock market values model. Differently, these variables aggregately are more value relevant in stock market returns model. The study finds earnings can widely help in demonstrating the changes stock market values in Iraqi services companies. The value relevance of accounting information using two models of stock market values and stock market returns has not examined before in one study in Iraq

THE RELATION BETWEEN LOSS OF A FAMILY MEMBER AND ORAL LICHEN PLANUS IN IRAQI POPULATION
Abstract background Oral lichen planus is common oral mucosal lesions with several predisposing factors, but with poorly identified etiology. Stressor factors could be one of etiological causes for eruption of the lesion and/or a predisposing factor for its appearance, aggravating the excited lesion. The aim of this study to evaluate certain circumstances that were passed on Iraqi population that may be related to elevated OLP incidence in Iraq. Material and method One hundred twenty-nine clinical charts for oral lichen planus patients were taken from oral pathology department college of dentistry university of Baghdad from a period 2009 to 2017. Results Fifty-eight patients only involved in the inclusion criteria of this study, the patients classified according to history associated eruption of the lesion into loss of one family member, trouble associated and both loss and trouble group .The mean age 48.37±12.2 ,the lesion most common in female than male 1.7:1,bilateral involvement of the lesion and mostly on buccal mucosa with slight higher of the red lesions over the reticular making elevated symptoms associated with the lesion mostly the burning sensation .About 65%of the patients presented within one to six months of eruption of the lesion. Conclusion The stressor events affect the age and the symptoms associated with eruption of oral lichen planus lesion
