It is associated with various serious medical conditions like depression, psoriatic arthritis, and cardiometabolic syndrome. Interleukin-36a (IL-36a) is a key molecule in inflammation, coordinating the activation of critical pro-inflammatory cytokines and immune cells. The current study involved 84 Iraqi psoriatic patients (PoS) and 67 healthy controls. Real-time PCR and sequencing techniques were used to evaluate the gene expression and polymorphism of two SNPs (rs2305152 A/C and rs895497 G/A) of the IL-36a gene. The findings revealed that the IL-36a gene was up-regulated in psoriatic patien

Successive governments are trying hard to reduce the effects of that legacy by filling the shortage in school buildings. The best example of this is the shortage in public schools in Wasit governorate, as this governorate lacks a number of factors that make education in it. Vulnerable due to the lack of schools, where we find in most government schools that the number of students in one class is more than 50 male and female students, as most parents resorted to registering their children in private schools, so we will address in this research to some predictive methods to find solutions Where we dealt with the traditional trend methods represented by the exponential smoo
