SIADH and mixed delirium following the abrupt cessation of long-acting benzodiazepines: a case report.

Benzodiazepines (BZDs) are among the most commonly used medications due to their efficacy and rapid onset of action. Although they offer significant therapeutic benefits in treating various psychiatric and neurological conditions, their clinical utility is limited by substantial risks, including dependency and withdrawal symptoms. The syndrome of inappropriate antidiuretic hormone secretion (SIADH) has been linked to BZD withdrawal.

Adapting the athlete sleep behavior questionnaire (ASBQ) for Arabic-speaking populations: Translation, reliability testing, and validation using classical theory and item response theory.

Sleep is essential for athletes' physical performance as well as their general health, well-being, and quality of life. To assess athletes' sleep behaviors, the Athlete Sleep Behavior Questionnaire (ASBQ) was developed in the English language. However, a validated Arabic-version of the ASBQ is lacking.

Analyzing the Prevalence of Depression and Anxiety Symptoms Among Relatives of Cancer Patients in Kuwait.

Introduction: The mental health impact on relatives of cancer patients frequently goes unnoticed and is commonly undervalued. This study aimed to explore how personal factors such as the patient's degree of kin, marital status, cancer stage, and number of diagnosed family members are correlated with the severity of depression and anxiety among relatives of cancer patients.

Method: This self-administered cross-sectional survey was conducted in Kuwait, employing a random sampling method to recruit participants.

The Prevalence of Mild, Moderate, and Severe Nomophobia Symptoms: A Systematic Review, Meta-Analysis, and Meta-Regression.

NOMOPHOBIA, or NO MObile PHone Phobia, refers to a psychological condition in which people fear being disconnected from their mobile phones. The purpose of this review was to establish the prevalence of nomophobia symptoms in youth and young adults according to severity, country, culture, population, measurement tool, and year of data collection. An electronic search of fourteen databases, two digital preservation services, and three content aggregator services was conducted from the inception of each database until 15 September 2021.

Delay in diagnosing a patient with mitochondrial encephalomyopathy, lactic acidosis, and stroke-like episodes (MELAS) syndrome who presented with status epilepticus and lactic acidosis: a case report.

Background: Mitochondrial encephalomyopathy, lactic acidosis, and stroke-like episode syndrome is a rare mitochondrial genetic disorder that can present with a variety of clinical manifestations, including stroke, hearing loss, seizures, and lactic acidosis. The most common genetic mutation associated with this syndrome is M.3243A>G.

Cultural adaptation and validation of the Arabic version of the multidimensional cognitive attentional syndrome scale (MCASS).

The cognitive attentional syndrome (CAS) is a core concept within metacognitive theory. The premise of the CAS is related to metacognition, however its role in psychopathology is distinct. Due to the complex nature of the CAS, a theoretically driven and psychometrically sound self-report measure of the CAS for the Arabic population is yet to be developed.

The prevalence and severity of insomnia symptoms during COVID-19: A global systematic review and individual participant data meta-analysis.

Introduction: There have been no previous meta-analytic studies that have looked at the prevalence of insomnia symptoms in different COVID-19 groups using a single assessment instrument to evaluate insomnia symptoms while maintaining data homogeneity. The current review's associated goal is to undertake an individual participant data (IPD) analysis to further investigate past meta-analyses, a method that has been shown to be more robust than standard meta-analyses.

Meethods: Only studies that used the Insomnia Severity Index (ISI) to assess insomnia are used in this analysis.

Camel milk composition by breed, season, publication year, and country: A global systematic review, meta-analysis, and meta-regression.

Camel milk consists of an essential macro/micronutrient for human nutrition in the arid and urban regions. This review study aimed to use meta-analysis statistical techniques for assessment and correction of publication bias, exploration of heterogeneity between studies, and detailed assessment of the effect of a comprehensive set of moderators including breed, season, country, year of publication, and the interaction between composition elements. This could provide a single synthesis of the camel milk composition to warrant strong generalizability of results, examine variability between available studies, and analyze differences in camel milk composition among different exposures.

The role of micronutrients in the management of COIVD-19 and optimizing vaccine efficacy.

Since COVID-19 was declared as a pandemic, a race between researchers has begun to deeply examine the mechanism of the virus and how to combat it. Few clinical investigations and studies have paid attention to the role of micronutrients in the disease's course and how it may affect the disease outcomes. Micronutrients have a noticeable effect on the host immune system regulation, as well as micronutrients insufficiencies where they can affect the host immune response against SARS-CoV-2 by, for example, altering the production and the function of the inflammatory cytokines such as IFN-γ, IFN-α, TNF and interleukins.

Sleep disturbances during the COVID-19 pandemic: A systematic review, meta-analysis, and meta-regression.

This systematic review and meta-analysis evaluated the extent of sleep disturbances during the COVID-19 pandemic. Eleven databases and six preprint repositories were searched for the period from November 1, 2019, to July 15, 2021. The DerSimonian and Laird method was used to develop random-effect meta-analyses.
