B-cell lymphoma research in Malaysia - A narrative review.

Lymphomas are a diverse group of malignant proliferations that arise as discrete tissue masses. The most widely accepted taxonomy for lymphoma is the World Health Organization classification of tumours of haematopoietic and lymphoid tissues, the 5th edition of which was released in June 2022. Most (85% to 90%) lymphoid neoplasms are of B cell origin.

CPR Quality Officer role to improve CPR quality: A multi-centred international simulation randomised control trial.

Background: An out-of-hospital cardiac arrest requires early recognition, prompt and quality clinical interventions, and coordination between different clinicians to improve outcomes. Clinical team leaders and clinical teams have high levels of cognitive burden. We aimed to investigate the effect of a dedicated Cardio-Pulmonary Resuscitation (CPR) Quality Officer role on team performance.

Determining current approaches to the evaluation of the quality of healthcare simulation-based education provision: a scoping review.

With an increase in simulation being used in healthcare education, there is a need to ensure the quality of simulation-based education is high. This scoping review was conducted to answer the question: What are the current approaches to the evaluation of the quality of health-care simulation-based education provision? Databases PubMed, Cochrane, ERIC, CINAHL and Medline were searched in March 2023 to retrieve peer-reviewed healthcare research and review articles written in the English language within the last 20 years. All data were extracted from six studies, themed and presented in the main text and in tabular form.

Diffuse large B-cell lymphoma research in Malaysia: A review.

Lymphomas are prevalent worldwide and a common malignancy reported in Malaysia. Diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) is the most common subtype of B-cell lymphomas accounting for 54% to 65% of all B-cell lymphomas and 39% to 57% of all malignant lymphomas. However, DLBCL comprises a heterogeneous group of diseases with different clinical presentations, biology and response to treatment.

Current Best Practices for Analysis of Dendritic Spine Morphology and Number in Neurodevelopmental Disorder Research.

Quantitative methods for assessing neural anatomy have rapidly evolved in neuroscience and provide important insights into brain health and function. However, as new techniques develop, it is not always clear when and how each may be used to answer specific scientific questions posed. Dendritic spines, which are often indicative of synapse formation and neural plasticity, have been implicated across many brain regions in neurodevelopmental disorders as a marker for neural changes reflecting neural dysfunction or alterations.
