Fatigue performance of asphalt binders modified with varying nanomaterials
...Show More Authors

This study investigates the influence of five nanomaterials nano-alumina (NA), nano-silica (NS), nano-titanium (NT), nano-zinc oxide (NZ), and carbon nanotubes (CNT)on enhancing the fatigue resistance of asphalt binders. NA, NS, and NT were incorporated at dosages of 2%, 4%, 6%, 8%, and 10%, while NZ and CNT were added at 1%, 2%, 3%, 4%, and 5%. A series of physical, rheological, and performance-based tests were conducted, including penetration, softening point, ductility, and rotational viscosity. Based on the outcomes of the overall desirability evaluation, the first three dosages of each nanomaterial were selected for further testing due to their superior workability and binder flexibility. Subsequent investigations included the high-temperature performance grade, fatigue parameter (G*.sin δ), Linear Amplitude Sweep (LAS), and IDEAL-CT test integrated with Digital Image Correlation (DIC). The results confirmed that nanomaterial modification significantly enhanced asphalt binder performance, though the effectiveness varied with type and dosage. Physical tests demonstrated improved stiffness, softening point, and reduced temperature susceptibility, with slight ductility losses at higher dosages. Rotational viscosity analysis indicated that low-to-moderate contents ensured workability excluding high CNT dosages which exceeded Superpave limits. High-temperature PG improved notably with NS, NZ, and CNT, while NA and NT showed limited gains. Fatigue parameter results (G*.sin δ) identified NA and NT as the most consistent in reducing cracking susceptibility. LAS testing confirmed superior fatigue lives at optimal dosages of 6% NA, 6% NT, 2% NS, 2% CNT, and 1% NZ, while higher concentrations often caused agglomeration and performance decline. IDEAL-CT and DIC analyses validated these findings by demonstrating increased fracture energy, CT index, and more uniform strain distributions in nano-modified mixtures compared to neat asphalt. FTIR spectra confirmed reduced oxidative aging most prominently with NT and NA while SEM revealed enhanced microstructural cohesion and reduced surface defects. The integration of the Overall Desirability (OD) framework confirmed NT-6 as the most effective dosage, followed by NZ-1 and NS-2, while higher dosages often led to poor compatibility and performance decline. Complementary cost–effectiveness analysis further demonstrated that lower dosages of NZ, NT, and NS achieved the best balance between technical performance and economic viability, whereas excessive CNT and NT contents were not recommended due to unfavorable cost-to-performance ratios. These findings highlight that dosage optimization is critical for translating nanomaterial benefits into practical pavement engineering applications, ensuring enhanced durability with rational investment of resources.

GRHPR gene variations in Iraqi patients infected with calcium oxalate kidney stones
...Show More Authors

      The alterations in glyoxylate reductase and hydroxy-pyruvate reductase concentrations in the sera and the genetic alterations associated with calcium oxalate kidney stones in Iraqi patients were not studied previously so this study aimed to focus on these points. This study included 80 subjects; they were 50 patients with calcium oxalate stones compared to 30 apparently healthy controls. Biochemical investigations for kidney functions (creatinine, urea, and uric acid), were performed on the sera of both groups. Also, complete blood count, random blood sugar, and blood group tests. Furthermore, urine had been collected for General Urine Examination to visualize oxalate crystals in the urine of the patient. Also, the GRHPR

HEPATITIS B VIRUS GENOTYPES IN IRAQI PATIENTS WITH CHRONIC HEPATITIS B INFECTION
...Show More Authors

Hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection is a serious disease of the liver and signifies a major worldwide health concern. HBV Genotyping is vital for further epidemiological study, predicting the disease outcome and response to treatment. The current study aimed to determine hepatitis B virus genotypes in patients with chronic hepatitis B, and to validate possible associations with the baseline characteristics of the disease. A total of 90 patients with chronic hepatitis B infection were enrolled in this study. Liver function tests, hepatitis B virus markers and DNA viral load were done using routine standardized procedures. HBV genotyping was performed using real time PCR. Genotype D was the most predominant in 64 (71.1%) of samples, while

Hyperferritinemia as a factor associated with poor prognosis in COVID-19 patients
...Show More Authors

Worldwide, hundreds of millions of people have been infected with COVID-19 since December 2019; however, about 20% or less developed severe symptoms. The main aim of the current study was to  assess  the  relationship  between  the  severity of Covid-19 and different clinical and laboratory parameters. A total number of 466 Arabs have willingly joined this prospective cohort. Out of the total number, 297 subjects (63.7%) had negative COVID-19 tests, and thus, they were recruited as controls, while 169 subjects (36.3%) who tested positive for COVID-19 were enrolled as cases. Out of the total number of COVID-19 patients, 127 (75.15%) presented with mild symptoms, and 42 (24.85%) had severe symptoms. The age range for the partic

Breast cancer survival rate prediction using multimodal deep learning with multigenetic features
...Show More Authors

Breast cancer is a heterogeneous disease characterized by molecular complexity. This research utilized three genetic expression profiles—gene expression, deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) methylation, and micro ribonucleic acid (miRNA) expression—to deepen the understanding of breast cancer biology and contribute to the development of a reliable survival rate prediction model. During the preprocessing phase, principal component analysis (PCA) was applied to reduce the dimensionality of each dataset before computing consensus features across the three omics datasets. By integrating these datasets with the consensus features, the model's ability to uncover deep connections within the data was significantly improved. The proposed multimodal deep
