Nurses' Perspectives on the Sleep Quality of Hospitalized Patients in Al Ahsa, Saudi Arabia.

Background: Sleep quality is crucial for patient recovery and well-being, yet hospitalized patients often suffer from poor sleep due to environmental disruptions, clinical routines, and psychosocial stressors. While these challenges are well-documented, qualitative insights into nurses' perspectives-essential frontline providers shaping the sleep environment-are scarce, especially within rapidly evolving healthcare systems like Saudi Arabia's. This study explores nurses' perceptions of factors influencing patient sleep quality in a private hospital in Al Ahsa, Saudi Arabia, and identifies strategies for improvement.

Comparative Analysis of Percutaneous Coronary Intervention and Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting in Left Main Disease Stratification by Angiographic SYNTAX Score.

Using the SYNTAX score (SS) for decision-making between percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) and coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) for left main coronary artery (LMCA) revascularization is under scrutiny. This study investigated the clinical outcomes of LMCA revascularization stratified by SS. This multicenter study included 2138 patients recruited between 2015 and 2020 who underwent LMCA disease revascularization using PCI or CABG and were categorized based on their SS into three groups: low (≤22), intermediate (23-32), and high (≥33).

Development of stable and porous AgO-loaded hydroxyapatite nanocomposites for enriched photocatalytic degradation of Rhodamine B under visible light.

A simple and inexpensive process from natural phosphate in the presence of Ag ions was used to develop AgO-loaded hydroxyapatite nanocomposites. The structural and textural characterization of the nanocomposites suggests that the AgO nanoparticles are well dispersed on the hydroxyapatite (HAp). The prepared nanocomposites show efficient Rhodamine B (RhB) dye photocatalytic degradation in water under visible and UV-visible light irradiation.

HLA class I and class II alleles and haplotypes of Algerian population from Algiers and neighbouring area.

In this study, we aimed to investigate the current genetic diversity and provide additional insights into the origins of the Algerian population by analyzing the frequencies of HLA -A,-B,-DRB1,-DQB1 alleles and associated haplotypes. We analyzed 1,082 unrelated healthy Algerian individuals, who were potential kidney donors, recruited and assessed in the Immunology Department of CHU Mustapha in Algiers over a 10-year period (2009-2019). HLA genotyping was performed by Polymerase Chain Reaction Sequence Specific Primers (PCR-SSP).

The transformation of Jordan's healthcare system in an area of conflict.

Background: The Jordanian healthcare system has evolved over the past decades expanding its services, technological, and educational resources. A comprehensive view of this system is lacking. The objective of this report is to describe the structure of the Jordanian healthcare system, the challenges facing it, and the current and recommended health policies.
