Objective: Febrile seizures are the most common seizures in children less than 5 years(2-5%),and the risk of its recurrence is 50%(>1year),30%(<1year).We focused on the effect and safety of the prophylaxis treatment of recurrent FS beacuase it is a terrifying case for the parents. Materials&Methods:This is a trial study on 40 patient with FS.Clonazepam was recommended 0.05mg/kg/d then anti e when fever exceed 38°.We did follow up every 3 month during one year. Results:we followed 35 patient, familial history of FS found in 57.1%,a history of epilepsy in 28.57%.clonazepam side effects were supportable the most common was lawson 14.28%,the efficacy of the treatment we didn’t noticed any episode of FS during the study 97.1%. Conclusion: Clonazepam is a safe and effective and easy treatement for the parents for the prophylaxis of FS recurrence.

Research summary
تناولت الدراسة التي أجراها الدكتور مازن غالية فعالية وأمان استخدام الكلونازيبام كعلاج وقائي متقطع لمنع تكرار نوبات الاختلاج الحروري عند الأطفال. تعتبر الاختلاجات الحرورية الأكثر شيوعاً بين الأطفال الذين تقل أعمارهم عن 5 سنوات بنسبة 2-5%. وقد شملت الدراسة 40 مريضاً، حيث تم إعطاء الكلونازيبام بجرعة 0.05 مغ/كغ/اليوم، وتمت متابعة المرضى كل 3 أشهر لمدة سنة كاملة. أظهرت النتائج أن 97.1% من الأطفال لم يعانوا من أي نوبة اختلاج حروري خلال فترة الدراسة، وكانت الآثار الجانبية خفيفة ومحتملة. خلصت الدراسة إلى أن الكلونازيبام علاج وقائي فعال وآمن وسهل الاستخدام للوقاية من تكرار نوبات الاختلاج الحروري.
Critical review
دراسة نقدية: على الرغم من أن الدراسة تقدم نتائج إيجابية حول فعالية الكلونازيبام في الوقاية من نوبات الاختلاج الحروري، إلا أن هناك بعض النقاط التي تحتاج إلى مزيد من البحث والتحليل. أولاً، حجم العينة كان صغيراً نسبياً (35 طفل)، مما قد يؤثر على تعميم النتائج. ثانياً، لم يتم مقارنة الكلونازيبام مع علاجات وقائية أخرى بشكل مباشر، مما يجعل من الصعب تحديد ما إذا كان هو الخيار الأفضل. ثالثاً، تمت متابعة المرضى لمدة سنة واحدة فقط، مما يترك تساؤلات حول فعالية وأمان الكلونازيبام على المدى الطويل. وأخيراً، لم يتم تناول تأثير العلاج على جودة حياة الأطفال وأسرهم بشكل كافٍ.

Background& Objective: the early surgical intervention for neurological caludication cases which are often caused by severe degenerative lumbar canal stenosis gives excellent results especially on near term. To confirm that early surgical interventi on, early timing for severe lumbar canal stenosis which caused signs and symptoms of neurological claudication, can yield excellent functional and motor results for patient and it returns thim to good life activity. Materials & Methods: This study was done retrospectively for neurological caludication cases in elderly patients admitted to neurosurgery department at Al-assad university hospital in the period between 2007– 2010 year. (53) Patients underwent posterior laminectomy, with or without vertebral fixation accompanied. Results: The direct improvement of the surgery was 75 % for neurological claudication and 79% after one year of surgery. Radical pain accompanied with neurological clauication improved fully in 66 % directly after surgery, up 75 % after one year. The sensory symptoms were low grade improvement, which was about 56% partial improvement directly after surgery and fully in 34%up to 28% – 66%after one year of surgery. The complications were few and mild in (11 %). Conclusion: Early surgical intervention to all cases of neurological claudication especially in the elderly gives magnificent results (motor & sensory) with good functional activity improvement in comparison to conservative therapy.
Epilepsy is a chronic neurological disorder that occurs in the brain، and affects approximately 2% of people around the world، where epilepsy patients face a lot of difficulties in everyday life due to the occurrence of seizures. Electroencephalog ram (EEG) is used in the automated detection of epileptic seizures، which has Characteristics of non-linear and non-stationary. In this research، we conducted automated detection of the seizures from the scalp EEG signals using a Level 5 Discrete Wavelet Transforms DWT to analyze the signal and extracting statistical features (maximum، minimum، mean، average ، standard deviation، the ratio between the mean values) and Categorizing using artificial neural networks ANN for classification. The suggested detection method has 89.85% detection accuracy with 90.60% sensitivity ، and 89.1% specificity.
Paper mill wastewater is an environment contaminated wastewater , and refractory to biological treatment due to its high value of COD and low value of BOD_5. This research studies the treatment of mentioned wastewater using Fenton Oxidation Fe^(2+)/ H_2 O_2. The effect of some key elements on this oxidation such as H_2 O_2 and Fe^(2+) doses, dosage strategy of H_2 O_2, with a pH value near 3 was studied. Fenton method showed high efficiency of COD removal reached 78.5 % with a total hydrogen peroxide dose of 2.2g/l applied in four doses and intervals of 15min. Experiments also proved that intermittent dosage - four doses - are better than giving whole dose in one stroke. Results appeared evidently in two points: the efficiency of COD removal and the ratio of BOD5/COD; since we reached through intermittent dosages a value of BOD5/COD near 0.32 , which eventually allows effluent from Fenton oxidation process to be treated biologically.
In this work, we conduct a comprehensive investigation on one of the centerpieces of modern machine translation systems: the encoder-decoder attention mechanism. Motivated by the concept of first-order alignments, we extend the (cross-)attention mech anism by a recurrent connection, allowing direct access to previous attention/alignment decisions. We propose several ways to include such a recurrency into the attention mechanism. Verifying their performance across different translation tasks we conclude that these extensions and dependencies are not beneficial for the translation performance of the Transformer architecture.
TMP-SMX is the first choice drug to prevent Pneumocystis jiroveci pneumonia (PCP) in hemato-oncology patients. The utilization of alternative drugs (Pentamidine – Dapsone) was suggested in some protocols in hemato-oncology. It seems that there is a n increase in the utilization of alternative drugs. The aim of the study was to evaluate the utilization of different drugs to prevent PCP and to identify the reasons which lead to the utilization of alternative drugs.
