Anemia in pregnancy: a systematic review and meta-analysis of prevalence, determinants, and health impacts in Egypt.

Background: The WHO considers anemia in pregnancy a severe public health issue when prevalence surpasses 40%. In response, we conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis to examine anemia among pregnant women in Egypt, focusing on its prevalence, determinants, and associated complications.

Methods: We conducted a systematic literature search for studies published between January 1, 2010, and August 18, 2024, to identify studies from Egypt reporting on anemia in pregnant women, including its prevalence, associated determinants, and complications.

Assessment of dynamics of pathogenic environmental T4 and T9 genotypes isolated from three recreational lakes in Klang Valley, Malaysia over the HaCaT cell monolayer.

Free-living amoebae of the genus are causative agents of keratitis and amoebic encephalitis. They are widely found in various ecological environments. Therefore, the present study brings results that can help to better understand the genotypes of the environmental isolates and their pathogenicity.

Wastewater treatment using Moringa oleifera (Lam.) and Eichhornia crassipes (Mart.) as neutral-carbon options within the framework of COP 27 recommendations.

Contamination of water by heavy toxic metal ions such as (e.g., Cr, Mn, Ni, Cu, Zn, As Pb, Cd, and Ag) can lead to serious environmental and human health problems because of their acute and chronic toxicity to the biological system.

Mannan oligosaccharides as a prebiotic for laying hens: effects on fertility, hatchability, productive performance, and immunity.

This experiment examined how adding mannan-oligosaccharides (MOS) to the diet affected fertility, hatching rates, egg production, carcass characteristics, cost-effectiveness, and immune function in laying hens. One hundred and twenty Mandarah chickens (30 hens and 3 roosters per group) were randomly chosen between 34 and 50 wk old and divided into four groups. The first group was the control group, which was given just the basal diet.

L. Promotes wound healing by upregulating expression of TGF-β, IL-1 β, VEGF and MMP-2.

L. has been traditionally used for treating snakebites and is known to possess antifebrile and hemostatic properties. These properties are closely related to wound healing.
