In this study, we reported on the effect of the internal magnetic field arising from magnetic particles added to zinc oxide in certain proportions, which led to an improvement in the performance of the dye solar cell, We found that the magnetic effect It is the main factor that improves the ability to transfer electrons generated from the separation process between (electron-hole) pairs, And reduce the process of reunification between electrons and holes, The efficiency of the cell with a pure electrode was (1.38%), while the highest efficiency we got after doping was when doping with a ratio (97%ZnO+3%MnCoFeO4) reached (1.7%), i.e. the percentage increase in efficiency (23%).

An ethnobotanical survey was conducted to identify and document the plants used in the treatment of haemorrhoids in North-Central, Nigeria. A total of three hundred (300) respondents among whom were herb sellers, herbalists, and traditional medicinal practitioners were consulted and interviewed with the help of structured questionnaires to collect data on the plant species from them. Data were represented tables, bar and pie charts and analyzed using descriptive statistics (frequencies and percentages). A total of forty-eight (48) plant species from twenty-seven (27) families were found to be useful in treatment of haemorrhoids in the area under the study. The most prominent among these being members of the family Euphorbiaceae with 4 species, indicating the utmost importance of this family in the cure of haemorrhoids. Followed by families Amaranthaceae, Compositae, Fabaceae and Meliaceae with 3 species each. The plants were identified using botanical, and common names, and the parts of the plant used were also identified. The study revealed that traditional medicinal practices were widely accepted among the people in the study area, probably because they believed in their effectiveness. The plant parts used ranged from root (8.30%), whole plants (8.30%), leaves (43.80%), stem bark (4.24%), bark (10.43%), stem (6.25%) to fruits, young leaves, stem bark leaves, bulb, fruit cub, juice, leaves and juice, shaft of seeds, and bark and leaves at 2.08% each. Further research should be carried out to identify more plant species in the area that can be used to treat haemorrhoids.

Antibiotics are chemicals or natural compounds that act by fighting various types of bacterial infections including urinary tract infection in pregnant women which is considered the most vulnerable patients to such infection due to several factors which may be hormonal , anatomical etc. The aim of this recent study is to confirm a pattern of antibiotic selection used for urinary tract infection in pregnant women in Nasiriya city- South of Iraq. Ninety pharmacies were asked about the antibiotics prescribed for their patients, the doses, dosage form, dose frequency, concomitant drugs (aim from administration of these drugs with antibiotics) and adverse effect. The study period was extended from January2022 till August 2022. From this study , the most dispensed antibiotics ware Cefexime 35.5% in a dose 400 mg capsule every twelve hours and the most frequently prescribed dosage form according to the physicians feedback and the analysis of the data was displayed the oral administration either (tablets or capsules) and it is less commonly prescribed are paraenteral antibiotics . In this work cefixime was the most dispended with a percent (35.5) cefixime may be due to it because there is more prescription due to safety during pregnancy , also it available in pharmacies

House flies carry many disease-causing bacteria. Through this study, we will find the relationship between house flies and bacteria that cause diarrhea in children. A total of three hundred and fifty flies were collected from (butchers, chicken and fish shops, markets, house and hospitals) and 200 samples were collected from children with diarrhea from each of Shatrah and Nasiriyah Governorate during the research period from July 2022 to January 2023 in Thi-Qar Governorate. The current study showed that 126 (36.0 %) of the flies carried bacteria, while 224 (64.0 %) of them did not contain bacteria. The current study showed that the percentage of high isolated bacteria was from the internal content of flies (8.71%), followed by(5.57%), on the external surface of flies. the present study showed the high isolated bacteria were from butcher (4.29%), following in hospital (4.0%),while the lowest isolated bacteria from flies collected from houses( 2.86%), The current study showed that the most isolated bacteria is E. coli with a percentage of( 24.3%), followed by S. aureus (17.0%), followed by Klebsiella. spp (13.15%), while the least isolated bacteria is Micrococcus (3.94%).When comparing the bacteria present in flies with the bacteria isolated from pediatric patients with diarrhea, these bacteria, the current study showed that the predominant bacteria was Escherichia coli from diarrhea with a percentage of (44.63%), and Escherichia coli was (36.27%) in the dominant flies.

Background: Neuroblastoma, the most common extra-cranial malignant pediatric solid tumor and one with a high mortality rate. Children suffering from Neuroblastoma after chemotherapy suffer from anemia, severe infections, and effects on some organs of the body. Therefore, the current study aims to study the effect of chemotherapy on inflammatory factor (high-sensitivity C-reactive Protein), some hematological parameters such as white blood cells, platelets, and hemoglobin, and some kidney function such as urea and Creatinine in children with Neuroblastoma before and after three cycles of chemotherapy. Materials and methods: 70 cases were divided into three groups: Group A; 35 healthy children are included as a control group., and group B; consists of 35 newly diagnosed patients and group C; following three chemotherapy rounds (same patients newly diagnosed), with an age range from 2 months to 12 years. They had attended Basrah Specialist Hospital for Children from May 2022 to the end of March 2023. Results: When compared to the control group, the results of the current study showed a significant rise (p˂0.05) in the levels of high-sensitivity C-reactive protein, white blood cells, and platelets in the sera samples of patients with Neuroblastoma Conclusion: This study came to the conclusion that Neuroblastoma treatment considerably changed a number of hematological markers and hs-crp. Consequently, it is essential to monitor these signs.

This study aims to shed light on the generality types of urinary bladder cancer in the city of Nasiriyah / Thi-Qar Province – Iraq. The study includes cases that were registered in the Department of Pathology in Al-Hussein Teaching Hospital and Private Laboratories. Patient records were analyzed for information regarding age, sex, residence, and cancer type. A total of 114 sufferers of bladder cancer were obtained. The data taking period was from January 1, 2021 to April 30, 2022. Tumors were diagnosed mainly in the private laboratories of two consultant pathologists in Nasiriyah. The results showed 107 (93.86%) transitional cell carcinomas with a mean age of 47 years, in addition to 6 (5.26%) squamous cell carcinomas with a mean age of 69 years and 1 adenocarcinoma (0.88%) at the age of 51 years. Out of all cancer cases, males accounted for 74.56% whilst females accounted for 25.44%, indicating a male to female ratio of 4:1. Additionally, males showed a clear dominance in the totality of the histological grades. The age range with the highest number of cancer cases was between 70-79 years old (n = 37; 32.45%), while the age range with the lowest number of cases was between 23-39 years old (n = 3; 2.63%). The current study concluded that the majority types of bladder cancer in the city of Nasiriyah / Thi-Qar Province - Iraq are transitional cell carcinomas with an average age of 47 years. Among all cancers, males had the highest incidence.

Bovine viral diarrhea virus (BVDV) is a complicated ruminant pathogen that naturally infects cattle, goats, sheep, buffalo, pigs, camelids, and wild ruminants. BVDV infection causes serious financial losses, either directly due to high rates of mortality and morbidity brought on by fatal mucosal disease and immunosuppression. From September 2022 to May 2023, blood samples (225) were randomly collected from unvaccinated cattle from various regions within Thi-Qar province, Iraq. 5?-untranslated region (UTR) amplification by nested RT-PCR results showed that the distribution of bovine viral diarrhea virus in Thi-Qar province was 19.11% (43 out of 225). These results show no statistically significant differences in the bovine viral diarrhea virus distribution between geographical regions and study months (P >0.05).

The relationship between obesity and COVID-19 is controversial. In addition, the disease’s relationship to sex and re-infection is not fully understood. This study investigated the demographic characteristics of 120 patients in the age range from 27 to 70 years old, without chronic disease, who were infected with COVID-19 and treated at Al-Hussein Teaching Hospital in Thi-Qar Province/Southern of Iraq. In this study, the male increased non-significantly than female 55.83% 44.17% respectively. The infected females had a higher BMI (29.1 ± 6.07kg/m2) than males (26.7 ± 5.99 kg/m2); 12.5% of the male patients and 0.83% of the female patients were previously infected with COVID-19; and 12.5% of the patients and 7.5% of female patients were previously vaccinated against COVID-19. The study noted a positive relationship between BMI and disease severity in both male and female patients and that males had a higher percentage of severe disease than females. The study identified age and BMI had association with disease severity, that COVID-19 occurred more in males than females, and that 80% of patients were not vaccinated against COVID-19.
