Al-Huweizah Marsh is considered as the largest in Iraq. This research aims to maintain thesustainability of Al-Huweizah Marsh under all circumstances and within the limits of the
available natural resources from the Iraqi side and the absence of feeding from the Iranian sidedue to the recent Iranian separation dike along the international boundaries within the marsh.
Twelve scenarios have been suggested as a first step to restore the whole marsh. But the
uncontrolled Iranian feeders and exiguity of their discharges recently, it was necessary to studyonly the northern part of the marsh as an alternative case to ensure reasonable amounts of waterfor the purpose of maintaining and restore the marsh. Hydrological routing model was used to
calculate the quantities required to restore the whole marsh, as well as the northern part. In thisresearch, the total dissolved solid (TDS) was adopted as the water quality parameter considering,three concentrations of TDS (1500, 1750, and 2000ppm). A two-dimensional flow mathematicalsimulation model was prepared using the SMS package (surface water modeling system) whereRMA-2 and RMA-4 software’s are used to study the flow and water quality patterns,
respectively. In order to improve the water quality in the marsh according to the acceptable waterquality determinants and the current conditions, we studied diverting some of Tigris River water,which is one of Shatt-Al-Arab feeders, into the marsh and releasing this amount into Tigris Riverthrough Al-Kassara control structure into Shatt-Al-Arab. A significant water qualityimprovement in the marsh was noticed as a result of mixing 25% or 50% of the Tigris Riverwater which is suppose to go to Shatt Al-Arab. According to the results of this study, it was
found that the restoration of the whole marsh cannot be achieved under the current circumstancesbecause of the limited water discharges from Iraqi feeders of the marsh and receding of feeding
from Iranian side. The best scenario was that of 3650million cubic meters/year for an area338km

and water surface elevation of 3m.a.m.s.l. The results also show that Al-Kassara controlstructure is unable to pass the required outflow at low level to improve water quality according
to the required standard determinants.
The inflammatory reactions cause nasal polyposes (NPs), which contained the paranasal sinuses and the nasal mucous membrane. They consist of recurrent multiple masses originating in the paranasal sinuses then spread from the middle meatus to the nasals cavity, which leads to the nasal blockage that causes the restriction of airflow to the olfactory area. This study aims at clarifying the role of IL-12RB2 polymorphism by using PCR technology in nasal mucosal stem cells in nasal polyps of Iraqi patients and use it as a biomarker. Fifty-eight cases of this study are referred to as nasal surgery, which selected from Dept.of Otolaryngology, Baghdad City, Iraq from May 2013 to January 2014. They were grouped into Control group (022 samples

Background: Dental caries is a disease occurs in the world in both developed and developing countries, it is still widespread among children and it can be controlled but not eliminated , most of tooth loss occurs due to dental caries and its complications. The aim of this study was to estimate the occurrence, and severity of dental caries and treatment needs among kindergarten children in Al-Basrah governorate. Materials and methods: The sample consisted of 1000 kindergarten children at age of 4-5 years old (445 boys and 555 girls) from urban areas in Al-Basrah city. Diagnosis and recording of dental caries and treatment needs were done according to the criteria of WHO (1987). Results: The percentage of dental caries was (80.8%) of the tota

B3LYP density functional is utilized for probing the effect of decorating Al, Ga, and In on the sensing performance of a boron phosphide nanotube (BPNT) in detecting the 2-chloroethanol (CHE) molecule. We predict that the interaction of pure BPNT with CHE is physisorption, and the sensing response (SR) of BPNT is approximately 6.3. The adsorption energy of CHE is about − 26.3 to − 91.1, − 96.6, and − 100.3 kJ/mol, when the Al, Ga, and In metals are decorated on the BPNT surface, respectively. This indicates that the decorated metals significantly strength the interaction. Also, the corresponding SR meaningfully rises to 19.4, 41.0, and 93.4, indicating that by increasing the atomic number of metals, the sensitivity i

Objective: To study the incidence of
sensorineural hearing loss and possible contributing
factors in patients with chronic kidney disease.
