Effect of Stress on Sleep Quality among Medical Students: A Cross-sectional Study at Jazan University, Saudi Arabia.

Introduction: It has long been understood that sleep is a necessary therapeutic element of human physiology and is crucial for healthy functioning, mental health, and quality of life. Medical students frequently minimize their sleep and habits to cope with their workload and their stressful lives, which has a negative influence on both mental health and academic performance. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the prevalence of stress and its effect on sleep quality among medical students (in both the preclinical and clinical years) at Jazan University in Saudi Arabia.

Awareness, Knowledge, and Attitudes Regarding Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation in Case of Cardiac Arrest among the Population in the Jazan Region, Saudi Arabia.

Introduction: For cardiac arrest victims, providing high-quality cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) is a fundamental component of initial care, especially in out-of-hospital settings. We sought to assess the knowledge of nonmedically trained individuals about CPR in case of cardiac arrest in the population of Jazan, Saudi Arabia.

Materials And Methods: A cross-sectional survey containing 22 questions was administered to individuals aged ≥ 18 years who were not health-care providers.

The Impact of Heart Attack and Sudden Cardiac Death Risk Perception on Lifestyle Modification Intention Among Adults in Jazan Province.

Purpose: This study aimed to assess the perception of sudden cardiac death (SCD) and heart attack risk and its influence on the intention to adopt healthy lifestyle behaviors among the general population in Jazan province, Saudi Arabia. SCD refers to an abrupt and unexpected loss of heart function resulting in death, and its incidence has been alarmingly increasing worldwide. Several factors, including smoking, hypertension, diabetes, obesity, and specific medications, have been associated with an elevated risk of SCD.

Clinical presentation and angiographic findings of acute myocardial infarction in young adults in Jazan region.

Background: There is a paucity of information about the clinical features and angiographic findings in young patients with acute myocardial infarction (MI), especially in the Arab Peninsula countries.

Objective: The aim of this study was to assess the proposed risk factors, clinical presentation, and angiographic findings of acute myocardial infarction in young adults.

Methods: This prospective study included young (range, 18 to 45 years) patients who presented with acute MI based on clinical evaluation, laboratory investigation, and electrocardiogram, and they underwent a coronary angiography procedure.

Gender Differences in Coronary Artery Disease, Clinical Characteristics, and Angiographic Features in the Jazan Region, Saudi Arabia.

Background: Cardiovascular disease is a major cause of death worldwide. In Saudi Arabia and the gulf area, coronary artery disease (CAD) is considered a serious problem with high mortality. Previous studies identified multiple risk factors, that include hypertension, diabetes, dyslipidemia, obesity, smoking, and low physical activity, which might be related to lifestyle changes over the last few decades.

Case report: Spontaneous coronary artery rupture presenting with acute coronary syndrome: A rare diagnosis of common disease.

Acute coronary syndrome (ACS), myocardial infarction, and sudden death have all been linked to spontaneous coronary artery rapture (SCAR). Patients primarily afflicted by SCAR are those with or without cardiovascular risk factors, notably men, implying a mechanism distinct from the more prevalent atherosclerosis. Both medical and interventional treatment should consider the diverse causes of ACS as well as the patient's clinical stability.
