Impact of Fingolimod Discontinuation Strategy on Recurrence of Disease Activity in Individuals With Multiple Sclerosis.

Background: For individuals with multiple sclerosis (MS), treatment interruption can result in relapse/recurrence of the disease activity. Currently, there are no consensus guidelines about whether an abrupt stop with a short washout period or gradual tapering is better for fingolimod (Gilenya) cessation. We investigated the impact of the fingolimod discontinuation strategy on the recurrence of disease activity and the rebound occurrence of symptoms during washout.

Comparative study between the roles of intrauterine misoprostol versus the sublingual route for prevention of postpartum blood loss in elective cesarean sections: a randomized controlled trial.

Background: The prostaglandin E1 analog "misoprostol" is a drug that has powerful ecbolic effects and can be beneficial in the prevention and treatment of postpartum hemorrhage, which is the leading cause of maternal mortality worldwide.

Objectives: To assess the value of adding intrauterine misoprostol together with intravenous oxytocin injection compared with sublingual misoprostol together with intravenous oxytocin injection during elective cesarean section to reduce blood loss intraoperatively and prevent postpartum hemorrhage.

Methods: A total of 192 pregnant women were counseled and recruited from the labor and delivery unit at Kasr Al Aini Hospital, Cairo University, and equally randomized into two groups.

Severe hyponatremia in obstetrics: Presentations and outcome. Retrospective cohort over 10 years.

Hyponatremia in labor and the postpartum period is generally underreported. In this study we aimed to identify attributable causes of severe hyponatremia in an obstetric population and define maternal outcomes. This was a retrospective cohort study, in a single center over a period of 10 years.

Predictors of climate change literacy in the era of global boiling: a cross-sectional survey of Egyptian nursing students.

Background: Climate changes have led to health and environmental risks, so it has become essential to measure climate change literacy among the entire population, especially nursing students. The significant role of nursing students in raising public awareness and future healthcare roles emphasizes assessing the predictors of climate change literacy among nursing students.

Aims: This study seeks to identify the predictors of climate change literacy among nursing students in A Multi-Site Survey.

miRNAs: possible regulators of toll like receptors and inflammatory tumor microenvironment in colorectal cancer.

Background: Colorectal cancer (CRC) is ranked as the third most commonly diagnosed cancer and the third cause of cancer related deaths. CRC is greatly attributed to genetic and epigenetic mutations and immune dysregulation. Tumor aberrant expression of Toll-like Receptors (TLRs) can contribute to tumorigenesis.
