Optimizing food waste anaerobic digestion in Kuwait: Experimental insights and empirical modelling using artificial neural networks.

This study investigates, for the first time, the anaerobic digestion of food waste in Kuwait to optimize methane production through a combination of artificial neural network (ANN) modelling and continuous reactor experiments. The ANN model, utilizing eight hidden neurons and a 70-20-10 split for training, validation and testing sets, yielded mean squared error values of 0.0056, 0.

The characteristics and distribution of emergency medical services in Saudi Arabia.

Background: Emergency medical services (EMS) play an essential role in treating and transporting patients to hospitals or between hospitals. EMS providers must be distributed wisely across all regions of the country to meet healthcare needs during normal times and disasters. No previous study has investigated the characteristics and distribution of the EMS workforce in Saudi Arabia.

Formulation of Multicomponent Chrysin-Hydroxy Propyl β Cyclodextrin-Poloxamer Inclusion Complex Using Spray Dry Method: Physicochemical Characterization to Cell Viability Assessment.

The work aimed to enhance chrysin (CHR) water solubility, dissolution, and in vitro antibacterial as well as cell viability. Chrysin binary, as well as ternary inclusion complex, were prepared using the spray drying method. The influence of an auxiliary component (poloxamer; PLX) was also assessed after being incorporated into the chrysin HP βCD complex (CHR-BC) and formed as a chrysin ternary complex (CHR-TC).

National research guideline for prehospital emergency medical care: A prospective Delphi-study.

Objectives: To identify the most important research topics to establish a national research agenda and protocol for prehospital research in Saudi Arabia (KSA).

Methods: A 3-round modified Delphi consensus methods were used to determine high-priority research topics. Round I included an open-ended question to list all high-priority research topics in a prehospital setting in Riyadh, KSA.

Exploring satisfaction level among outpatients regarding pharmacy facilities and services in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia; a large regional analysis.

Background: Evaluation of patients`satisfaction towards pharmacy services is of utmost importance to ensure the quality of care. It helps in identifying domains requiring improvements to provide high quality pharmacy services to ensure the provision of enhanced pharmaceutical care. The current study aims to ascertain the extent of satisfaction towards pharmacy services among patients attending outpatient pharmacies in Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.

Comparison of the Effectiveness and Comfort Level of Two Commonly Used Mask Ventilation Techniques in a Model.

Background: Mask ventilation is an important rescue airway skill for providing oxygenation and ventilation. Maintaining a good face mask seal is a fundamental factor for successful ventilation. Therefore, the aim of this study was to compare the effectiveness and comfortability of 2 commonly used mask ventilation techniques.

A proposed scalable design and simulation of wireless sensor network-based long-distance water pipeline leakage monitoring system.

Anomalies such as leakage and bursts in water pipelines have severe consequences for the environment and the economy. To ensure the reliability of water pipelines, they must be monitored effectively. Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) have emerged as an effective technology for monitoring critical infrastructure such as water, oil and gas pipelines.
