Abstract

Background: Biochemical indicators and endocrine factors, particularly thyroid hormones and sex hormones, are closely related to bone metabolism and skeletal regulation in women. Knowledge Gap: Although several biomarkers are known to participate in bone metabolism, the combined profile of biochemical and hormonal parameters associated with osteoporosis in women remains insufficiently documented in certain regional populations. Aims: This study investigated selected biochemical and hormonal biomarkers in women diagnosed with osteoporosis in Al-Diwaniyah Governorate. Results: A total of 76 women aged 25–45 years participated in the study and were divided into an osteoporosis group (46 patients) and a healthy control group (30 individuals). Statistical analysis showed significant reductions in body mass index, serum calcium, and vitamin D levels in osteoporotic women compared with controls. In contrast, thyroid-related hormones, including thyroid-stimulating hormone and thyroxine, were significantly elevated in the patient group. Additionally, estrogen and follicle-stimulating hormone concentrations were significantly lower in women with osteoporosis. Novelty: The study provides an integrated evaluation of biochemical and endocrine biomarkers related to bone metabolism among women within the studied population. Implications: These findings highlight the importance of hormonal and biochemical assessment in understanding metabolic alterations associated with osteoporosis and may support clinical laboratory monitoring strategies for women at risk of bone metabolism disorders. Keywords: Osteoporosis, Bone Metabolism, Thyroid Hormones, Vitamin D, Women Key Findings Highlights Reduced calcium, vitamin D, and body mass index detected in affected participants. Elevated thyroid-related hormones identified in the patient group. Lower estrogen and follicle-stimulating hormone concentrations observed in osteoporotic women.

Abstract

General Background: Air pollution has become a critical global issue affecting environmental sustainability and public health, creating a strong demand for accurate air quality prediction systems. Specific Background: Traditional statistical models and conventional machine learning techniques often struggle to capture the nonlinear and multivariate characteristics of environmental data, particularly when dealing with complex temporal dependencies. Knowledge Gap: Many existing forecasting approaches focus primarily on either short-term sequential learning or long-range temporal modeling, which limits their ability to represent both bidirectional temporal patterns and long-term dependencies in multivariate air quality datasets. Aims: This study proposes a hybrid deep learning framework integrating Transformer, Bidirectional Long Short-Term Memory (BiLSTM), and an Attention mechanism for accurate multivariate air quality prediction. Results: Experiments conducted on the UCI Air Quality dataset demonstrate that the proposed model achieves superior predictive performance with RMSE of 0.0799, MAE of 0.0589, and R² of 0.9621, outperforming baseline models such as standalone Transformer and BiLSTM architectures. Novelty: The proposed framework combines global temporal dependency modeling from Transformer encoders with bidirectional sequence learning from BiLSTM and adaptive temporal weighting through the attention mechanism. Implications: The framework provides a reliable computational approach for environmental monitoring systems, supporting intelligent air quality forecasting, early warning mechanisms, and data-driven environmental decision-making. Highlights Hybrid architecture captures both long-range temporal dependencies and bidirectional sequence relationships in environmental data. Multivariate forecasting shows strong predictive consistency across several pollutants and meteorological variables. Experimental evaluation reports very low prediction errors and strong statistical correlation with observed measurements.
