Abstract

Background: Iraq has been experiencing decades of dictatorship, governmental and academic corruption that reduced the contributions of physicians to the international scientific achievements and advances. The aim of this paper is to identify Iraqi pediatricians’ contributions by eminent papers to international and European conferences.

        Materials and Methods: Eminent conferences’ papers are defined as:

i.              Papers which has abstract published in at least two PubMed journals,

ii.             Papers which has abstract published in one PubMed journal, and the full-length paper published in a well-indexed journals,

iii.            Papers which has abstract published in one PubMed journal, and the full-length paper published as a book chapter or in a book chapter,

iv.            Papers which has abstract published in a conference book available online, and the full-length paper published in a Scopus journal or as a book chapter or in a book chapter. More than 100 conferences’ books published in PubMed journals during the previous 15 years were reviewed. The retrieved conferences’ papers were traced in other publications.

       Results: Twenty eminent conference’ papers contributed by Iraqi pediatricians were found in the abstract books of thirteen international and European conferences. The conferences were held in ten different countries in three continents.

The abstracts of eleven conference’ papers were published in at least two PubMed journals, while, the abstracts of four conference’ papers were published in one PubMed journal, and the full-length paper was published in a well-indexed journals. The abstracts of three conferences’ papers were published in one PubMed journal, and the full-length paper was published as a book chapter or in a book chapter. The abstract of one paper published in a conference book available online, and the full-length paper published in a Scopus journal, while the abstract of another paper was published in a conference book available online published in an open-access journal, and the full-length paper published as a book chapter.

      Conclusion: Eminent conference’ papers contributed by Iraqi pediatricians to international conferences provided the first descriptions of the patterns of some disorders in Iraqi children or reported the occurrence of rare disorders for the first time in Iraq. Other eminent conference’ papers described new therapeutic approaches for chronic renal failure, autism disorders, and cerebral palsy.

Keywords: Eminent conference’ papers, Iraqi pediatricians.

Introduction

Conference papers have been widely used as an accredited CME activity, particularly papers presented in international and European conferences. Many academic institutions throughout the world are considering conference papers during the process of academic promotions. Conference papers can help in early sharing of research findings and receiving feedback. They sometimes help the authors to get invitations from journal to publish the full-length of their conference papers [1-5]. Iraq has been experiencing decades of dictatorship, governmental and academic corruption that reduced the contributions of pediatricians and physicians in general to the international scientific achievements and advances [6-9]. The aim of this paper is to identify Iraqi pediatricians’ contributions by eminent papers to international and European conferences.

Materials and Methods

The conferences were held in ten different countries in three continents.

When retrieved conferences’ papers were traced in other publications; the abstracts of three papers were also found the conference books of the Second Pan Arab Human genetics conference (Dubai, UAE, 20-22 November, 2007). Center for Arab Genomic studies, and the 1st International Conference of the Cyprus Society of Human Genetics 3-4 October 2008. The abstracts of eleven conferences’ papers were published in at least two PubMed journals [10-37]. The full-length of two of these conference’ papers were also published in PubMed journals [38,39], while the full-length of an other five conferences’ paper were also published in a well-indexed journal including a Scopus journal [40-44]. The abstract of one of theses papers [42] was also published in the books of Abstracts of an Arab conference which is available online [45], a Cyprian conference [46].

The abstracts of four conference’ papers were published in one PubMed journal, and the full-length paper was published in a well-indexed journals [47-54], and the abstract of one of theses two papers was also published in the abstract book of a Cyprian conference [55].The full-length of one of these papers [53] was also published as a book chapter that was published in 4 different languages [56-60]. The abstracts of three conference’ papers were published in one PubMed journal, and the full-length paper was published as a book chapter or in a book chapter [61-65].The abstract of one of these papers[63] was also published in the books of Abstracts of an Arab conference which is available online [66].

Some eminent conference’ papers provided the first descriptions of the patterns of some disorders in Iraqi children including urolithiasis in renal tubular disorders [11-13], Oculo-cerebro-renal syndrome[16,17],spectrum of renal tubular disorders [23,24],ocular abnormalities in chronic renal failure [25-28], and childhood renal disorders [34-37]. Some eminent conference’ papers reported the occurrence of rare disorders for the first time in Iraq such as Coffin Siris syndrome [14,15], Aicardi syndrome [49], and Sanjad-Sakati-Richardson-Kirk syndrome [52] or described the occurrence of a new dysmorphic syndrome [29, 30]. Other eminent conference’ papers described a new therapeutic approaches for chronic renal failure [18,19,20,21,22;31,32,33,47,48], autism disorders [52], and cerebral palsy [61].

The eminent conference’ papers described a new therapeutic approaches for chronic renal failure [18,19,20,21,22;31,32,33,47,48] contributed to the emergence of intestinal dialysis technology [70-73], and the author of these conferences’ paper has been included in a list of most famous physicians of all time suggested by “Only medical talks web site”, since 2008 [74]. One eminent conference paper provided a unique insight about the role of ancient Iraqi people (Sumerian, Assyrian, Babylonian and Arabian) in the development of medicine as viewed by western writers [67].

Mechanical ventilators control either gas flow (volume control) or airway pressure (pressure control) for the inspiratory period. Dual control modes are designed to combine the constant minute ventilation of volume control ventilation and the fast variable current advantages of pressure control ventilation. All dual control modes provide pressure controlled breath using pressure limit and descending flow model. The volume produced varies depending on the patient's effort and pulmonary impedance. In the dual control mode, unlike the pressure control mode, the output is changed according to the measured input (volume). Dual control modes can be patient or time triggered, current or time cycled.

 

Dual Control modes allow you to set the volume target while the ventilator is pressure controlled breathing. In dual-in-breath mode, the ventilator switches from volume control to volume control, according to the patient's inspiratory effort and ability to reach the set minimum tidal volume, within the same breath. While the device is working in pressure support (PS) or pressure control (PC) mode in breathless dual control mode, with the operation of the feedback ring, it decreases or increases the pressure limit to provide the tidal volume set by the clinician.
