Objectives: The aim of the study was to estimate the crude prevalence rate (CPR) of compressive radiculopathies in Qena governorate/Egypt.
Patients And Methods: 10 areas in Qena governorate were selected by random sampling, involving 9303 inhabitants with 57.3% urban residents and 42.
Background: Few epidemiological studies of the prevalence of neuromuscular disorders have been undertaken. The aim of the study was to estimate the prevalence of the most common types of neuromuscular disorders in Qena governorate/Egypt.
Methods: A random sample was taken from 11 districts, involving 9303 inhabitants with 57.
Background And Purpose: There have been few studies to estimate the prevalence of Bell's palsy (BP) in Arab countries. A community-based study was conducted to estimate the prevalence, incidence rates, precipitating factors, and outcome of BP in Qena Governorate, Egypt.
Subjects And Methods: A door-to-door survey was carried out, with random sampling of 10 districts, involving 9303 inhabitants, 51.
Background: No epidemiological studies on the prevalence of compressive neuropathy have been undertaken in Arab countries. The aim of the study was to estimate the prevalence of the most common types of compressive neuropathies in Qena governorate/Egypt.
Methods: The study was part of a community-based survey carried out to assess the prevalence of neuromuscular disorders among the Qena population.
Background: No previous study was done to estimate the prevalence of diabetic neuropathy (DN) in Arabic countries. The aim of this study was to estimate the prevalence of DN and its characteristics in Qena governorate.
Material And Methods: This is a random sampling of 10 study areas, involving 9,303 inhabitants; 51.
Background And Purpose: In a previous study we found a high crude prevalence rate (CPR) for Parkinson's disease (PD) in Assiut governorate/Egypt. We therefore surveyed a second Nile valley governorate (Qena) to provide confirmatory evidence for the high prevalence rate of PD in Egypt.
Subjects And Methods: 10 areas in Qena governorate were selected by random sampling to recruit 8027 inhabitants.
Background: There are only a few reports which provide prevalence rates of mild cognitive impairment (MCI) and dementia specifically in Arabic countries.
Objective: This study is aimed at estimating the prevalence of MCI and dementia among subjects aged ≥60 years using door-to-door survey in Qena Governorate/Egypt.
Methods: We conducted a door-to-door survey with multistage probability random sampling.
