The rapid sprawl in urban areas caused by excessive production and consumption of goods (as driven by local poor social choices) has inevitably resulted in a major burden due to environmental degradation worldwide. Unfortunately, these traditional models of urban planning fail to properly account for the intricacies that permeate a modern city and are deficient in terms of their approach as they shape themselves within an environment largely divorced from natural systems, resulting in vast mismanagement of resources, guiding cities down trajectories where growth destroys both physical and cultural landscapes. As cities suffer from increasing scarcity, we advocate for regeneration and resilience to be embedded in advanced urban design approaches based on natural systems principles. This study explores how engineering synthetic natural systems can be employed to influence the development of urban intelligent frameworks expressed in terms of adaptive solutions that support environmental and social needs for cities. The main objective of this research is to test, explore, and validate the way natural systems (like ecosystems) can be simulated in order to support an improvement in urban intelligence and a qualitatively better quality of life. Through a computational study, the objective of developing models is to mimic important aspects found in natural systems, such as resource use efficiency and resilience, including the separation of adjoining land areas within the urban planning domain. To bridge this gap, we propose an integrated natural system design in urban intelligence to develop a comprehensive platform that deals with multi-faceted urban challenges, including but not limited to air and water quality, and green space accessibility. The research confirms that when natural systems are incorporated into urban landscapes, the outcomes have considerable benefits in terms of resources, environment, and quality of life. This results in better air quality, reduced urban heat islands, and an improved use of resources for cities as they develop green infrastructure or adaptive water management systems, which directly impact temperatures. They also enhance social fairness, as the stimulation of natural systems results in an increase in availability and proximity to green places, which altogether boosts public health. The study also underscores the need for urban intelligence systems that leverage real-time data to dynamically adjust infrastructure planning and operation in response to their environment as well as population changes, ultimately aiming towards long-term resilience for cities. These are the types of insights that can deliver a model for sustainable urban development strategies at scale to policymakers and city planners. ©2025 The authors.
The aim of the study is to identify the stage of both decentralized performance and organizational confidence with through those responsible the decentralized work of officials in organizing and managing local championships affiliated with the Iraqi Athletics Federation from their perspective. The study employed a descriptive approach using a correlational method on a sample of those managing local championships of the Iraqi Athletics Federation, including members , coaches, referees, and the president of the central administrative board, as well as the members and presidents of the subfederations for the sports (2020/2021).
The research topic dealt with the strategic recovery of the insurance service, which is one of the approaches that have an important role in providing solutions and remedies for the recession that affects companies and hinders them from achieving their strategic goals. The research also addressed the strategic objectives of the company as the rationale and actual guide for companies of all activities in order to protect their systems from deviation for its desired purpose. So the aim of the research is to demonstrate the repercussions of the strategic recovery of the insurance Service represented by (compensation, speed of response, apology, initiative (identifying the problem). The company's strategic goals are represented (prof

The objective of this study was to investigate the prophylactic roles of human enteric derived Lactobacillus plantarum L1 (Ll) and Lactobacillus paracasei L2 (L2), on EHEC O157:H7 infection in rodent models (In vivo). The Lactobacillus suspensions (L1 and L2) were individually and orally administered to experimental rats at a daily two consecutives of 100 μl (108 CFU/ ml/rat) for up to two weeks. Thereafter, on the 8th day of experiment rats were orally challenged with one dose infection of EHEC (105 CFU/ml/rat). Animals mortality and illness symptoms have been monitored. There was no fatal EHEC infection in rats that had been pre‑colonized with the Lactobacillus strains, while most of EHEC infected rats were died (90%). The

Follow up has maintained to determine the Delayed Type of Hypersensitivity using skin test both in infected and control lab animals. Chicken red blood cells were used as a parameter to evaluate the immune system; they are dull and have the ability of immunization. Two concentrations of chicken R.B.C were examined to determine which gives the higher titration in Hamsters and those were 1.5 X 109 cell/ml and 3 X 109 cell/ml , the second concentration gave the maximum titration where then used in this work.
