The Impact of Climate on the Incidence of Connective Tissue Disorders in the Al-Faw and Al-Qurnah Districts

Abstract

This research examines the incidence of connective tissue disorders in the Al-Faw and Al-Qurnah districts for the period (2009/2010 - 2019/2020), investigates monthly variations, identifies which of the two districts is more affected and prevalent by the disease, and explores the statistical relationship between climatic factors and connective tissue disorders. The research is divided into three sections, with the first section providing the theoretical framework of the research, including general research fundamentals. The second section analyzes the monthly variations in connective tissue disorders, while the third section investigates the impact of climatic factors on disease incidence using the Pearson correlation coefficient. The study relies on both analytical and quantitative methodologies.
