Antibiotic Residues in Milk and Milk-Based Products Served in Kuwait Hospitals: Multi-Hazard Risk Assessment.

Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) poses a significant global health challenge affecting food safety and development. Residues of antibiotics in food from animal sources, particularly milk, contribute to the development and spread of AMR, alter intestinal microbiota, and potentially lead to allergies, serious health conditions, and environmental and technological problems within the dairy industry. Therefore, this study investigated the residue levels of veterinary drugs from β-lactam antibiotics and tetracyclines in milk and milk products and assessed human health risks.

Digital Impressions Versus Conventional Impressions in Prosthodontics: A Systematic Review.

The accuracy of definitive impressions has a significant impact on the quality of the final prosthesis. Elastic impression materials are commonly used in the traditional approach to replicate anatomical structures while indirectly fabricating prostheses. Digital impression has gained increasing popularity due to its various advantages, including three-dimensional previsualization, cost-effectiveness, and reduced time consumption.

COVID-19 reinfection: A multicenter retrospective study in Saudi Arabia.

Introduction: There are limited direct data on severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) long-term immune responses and reinfection. This study aimed to evaluate the rate, risk factors, and severity of COVID-19 reinfection.

Methods: This retrospective cohort study included five hospitals across Saudi Arabia.

Evaluation of Reduction Protocols in Managing Aerosol Generation in Caries Management in COVID 19 in Riyadh: An Original Research.

Introduction: External high-volume extraction (HVE) devices may offer a way to reduce any aerosol particulate generated. The aim of this study was to measure the particle count during dental aerosol-generating procedures and compare the results with when a HVE device is used.

Materials And Methods: Design A comparative clinical study measuring the amount of PM1, PM2.

Risk Factors, Subtypes, and Outcome of Ischemic Stroke in Kuwait: A National Study.
