Article Synopsis
  • Psoriasis is a lifelong skin condition, and Tofacitinib, a type of JAK inhibitor, may help improve skin lesions and overall patient outcomes, but it also carries risks like increased infections due to its immunosuppressive nature.
  • A systematic review and meta-analysis were conducted, following specific guidelines, to compare the safety of Tofacitinib against placebo, focusing on the occurrence of serious infections and other adverse effects among participants.
  • Among 998 studies, only six randomized controlled trials with 2,516 psoriasis patients were included; the results indicated increased risks of herpes zoster and respiratory infections, but no significant differences in safety outcomes were found between those taking Tofacitinib and those receiving a placebo

In the optical energy gap, visible and near-IR emission of halide phosphate glasses with a composition of 40PO-30ZnO-20LiCl-10BaF in mol% doped with 3.5 × 10 ppm PrO, referred to as PZLBPr, were synthesized. The UV-VIS-NIR and spectroscopic properties of these glasses were also predicted.

To investigate the quantum confinement effect on excitons in hybrid perovskites, single-crystal platelets of CHNHPbBr are grown on mica substrates using one-step chemical vapor deposition. Photoluminescence measurements reveal a monotonous blue shift with a decreasing platelet thickness, which is accompanied by a significant increase in exciton binding energy from approximately 70 to 150 meV. Those phenomena can be attributed to the one-dimensional (1D) quantum confinement effect in the two-dimensional platelets.

Background: Chronic respiratory diseases such as asthma and allergic rhinitis (AR) are a major public health problem in developing countries including those in the Middle East. However, to date, there is a paucity of information related to physician-diagnosed AR in this region. The Allergies in Middle East Survey was undertaken to help clarify and broaden the understanding of physician-diagnosed AR across Egypt, Iran, Lebanon, Saudi Arabia, and the United Arab Emirates.
