The Association of Serum Adiponectin Level with Type Two Diabetes Mellitus in Some Iraqi Patients

Abstract:
Adiponectin is a 244 – amino acid-long polypeptide, that acts as a hormone with anti-inflammatory and insulin sensitizing properties. serum adiponectin level correlates inversely with insulin resistance, and hypoadiponectinemia being is found in subjects with obesity or type 2 diabetes mellitus. The aim of the present study is to study the association of serum adiponectin level with the risk of type two diabetes mellitus. Sixty six diabetic patients and Twenty five controls were enrolled in this study. Adiponectin levels were significantly reduced in T2DM patients than in control group with mean and standard error of 8.98 ± 0.86μg/ml vs. 12.51 ± 1.53μg/ml, respectively. Adiponectin levels were significantly reduced in T2DM patients male with a mean and standard error of 5.58 ± 0.64 μg/ml more than that of female (10.95 ± 1.22 μg/ml).

Application of Ann in Australian Credit Card Approval

Abstract:
Nowadays, credit cards became popular in both developed and developing countries. For lenders, more credit card applications mean more complex decision making process. The purpose of this research was to examine how accurate and reliable results Neural Networks (ANN) can provide for Credit Card approval. Research was done using Australian Credit Card Approval Dataset which has interesting mixture of data and 690 instances. Thirty experiments were done using two and three hidden layers, and back-propagation training method. Results indicated high level of reliability and accuracy of 87 % which is good empirical evidence that ANN can be used as reliable tool for credit card approval.

Moscow Media Education Centers for Non-professionals in the Media Fields

Abstract:
The analysis of the basic media education models used in Moscow media education centers has shown that nowadays the synthetic media education models are most typical; they are based on the synthesis of the sociocultural, educational and informational, practical and utilitarian models. And they lean towards the maximum usage of media education potential depending on the aims and objectives; they are characterized by variability, and the capacity to entirely or partially integrate into the education process. The suggested media education technology is based as a rule on blocks or modules of creative and role play/gaming assignments for the teachers to use both in school and out-of-school activities. An important peculiarity of the analyzed models is that they have a wide field of application: schools, universities, institutions of additional education and leisure activity. Media studies may be organized in the form of lessons, optional classes, and special courses integrated into different school subjects, or used in school societies.

Firstly, One Sample Kolmogorov-Smirnov test was applied to see whether the data follow normal distribution or not. Non-parametric tests were used as the data did not demonstrate normal distribution. Mann-Whitney and Kruskal-Wallis H tests were applied to compare the data with respect to variables.To determine the relationship between sub-dimensions, Spearman correlation analysis was used. As a result of the study, it has been identified that attitude of democratic management was affected by many factors while the attitude of autocratic and disinterested classroom management were affected by a small number of factors.

17-Year Periods of Rising and Falling Water Levels in the Kazakhstan Section of the Caspian Sea

Abstract:
The Caspian is the largest endorheic lake on Earth, situated on the boundary of Europe and Asia, yet it is called a sea due to its sheer size and its seabed that has been formed by oceanic Earth crust. The Caspian Sea has a fluctuating hydrologic regime that causes both sharp drops and sudden increases in its water level. The present article examines the specifics of the relief of the sea floor in the Kazakhstan section of the Northern Caspian which is the most susceptible to underflooding (due to a rise in the water table) during water surges. This article analyses the dynamics of the fluctuating water levels in the Caspian Sea during the period of decreased and increased water levels from 1960 to 2013. It also offers the possible reasons for these changes in the water levels of the Caspian Sea.

Abstract:
This paper examines the motivation factors which influence young people when choosing city destinations in Europe and aims to show if there are any differences in the decision-making process between Danish and international students. Previous research has taught us that the decision to buy a tourism product is a complex process. Therefore, any kind of differences can be essential in developing appropriate marketing strategies for different market segments. The findings of this study indicate that there are seven major factors for young people when choosing a city destination in Europe. Further analysis shows that there are significant differences among several motivation factors when it comes to Danish and international students. The contribution of this study is its indication towards which factors influence city destination choice among young people which will further enable European cities to develop and promote more appropriate and satisfactory tourism products and services for their young visitors.
