Background: Nocturnal enuresis (NE), commonly referred to as nighttime bed wetting, is a common condition characterized by involuntary urination during sleep. This condition affects a significant number of children worldwide with a higher prevalence in boys than girls aged 6-12 years old. This study aims to evaluate the symptoms, assess the risk factors and address the response to different management types of this disorder among children and adolescents living in the Qassim region, Saudi Arabia.

Structural investigations of the compounds 4a and 4b were performed using X-ray single crystal structure determinations and Hirshfeld analysis. Both compounds crystallized in monoclinic crystal system.

Background: PPHN is a common cause of neonatal respiratory failure and is still a serious condition and associated with high mortality.
Objectives: To compare the demographic variables, clinical characteristics, and treatment outcomes in neonates with PHHN who underwent ECMO and survived compared to neonates with PHHN who underwent ECMO and died.
Methods: We adhered to the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guideline and searched ProQuest, Medline, Embase, PubMed, CINAHL, Wiley online library, Scopus and Nature for studies on the development of PPHN in neonates who underwent ECMO, published from January 1, 2010 to May 31, 2023, with English language restriction.
Rotator cuff (RC) and long head of the biceps tendon (LHBT) tears are common shoulder problems presented to the orthopedic clinic. The aim of this study was to assess the association between RC and LHBT tears among a Saudi population sample. A total of 243 patients who were diagnosed with shoulder pain due to RC or LHBT tear between 2016 and 2018 using a magnetic resonance imaging scan were included in this study.

CS Schiff base formation was confirmed by using FT-IR, XRD, and TGA. Characteristic data show that amino groups in chitosan reacted with the functional group in the heterocyclic compound to form the Schiff base.
