Pharmacological inhibition of histamine N-methyltransferase extends wakefulness and suppresses cataplexy in a mouse model of narcolepsy.

Histamine, a neurotransmitter, plays a predominant role in maintaining wakefulness. Furthermore, our previous studies showed that histamine N-methyltransferase (HNMT), a histamine-metabolizing enzyme, is important for regulating brain histamine concentration. However, the effects of pharmacological HNMT inhibition on mouse behavior, including the sleep-wake cycle and cataplexy, in a mouse model of narcolepsy have not yet been investigated.

Prevalence and factors associated with workplace violence in a tertiary healthcare facility in Nigeria.

Background: Healthcare workers globally are at an increased risk of workplace violence. Adverse effects such as physical injury, reduced quality of care to patients and lower productivity with associated costs to employers occur. Non-reporting hinders the implementation of effective prevention.

Breast cancer diagnosis and management guided by data augmentation, utilizing an integrated framework of SHAP and random augmentation.

Recent research indicates that early detection of breast cancer (BC) is critical in achieving favorable treatment outcomes and reducing the mortality rate associated with it. With the difficulty in obtaining a balanced dataset that is primarily sourced for the diagnosis of the disease, many researchers have relied on data augmentation techniques, thereby having varying datasets with varying quality and results. The dataset we focused on in this study is crafted from SHapley Additive exPlanations (SHAP)-augmentation and random augmentation (RA) approaches to dealing with imbalanced data.

Management staff's perspectives on intervention strategies for workplace violence prevention in a tertiary health facility in Nigeria: a qualitative study.

Introduction: Health workers have increasingly become victims of workplace violence. However, negligible action has been given to developing workplace violence (WPV) prevention programs in hospital settings in low-middle-income countries. An effective workplace violence prevention program is crucial for preventing violence and managing the consequences of incidents.
