Factors Associated With Mortality Among Hospitalized Children With Acute Bacterial Meningitis in a Resource-Limited Setting: A Retrospective Study.

Background: Acute bacterial meningitis (ABM) is a significant public health problem in developing countries, including Yemen, especially during warfare. This is because persistent political turmoil impedes ABM prevalence, etiology, and treatment. Here, we investigate the factors associated with mortality among hospitalized children with ABM in a resource-limited setting.

Effect of DOPA decarboxylase inhibitor supplements on the incidence of urinary tract infections in Parkinson's disease patients: A systematic review and meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials.

Objectives: Parkinson's disease is the most common neurodegenerative disease. Combining levodopa with other drugs, including decarboxylase inhibitors (DCI) is its most effective treatment. Urinary tract infection (UTI) is the most common cause of hospitalization in Parkinson's patients, making it crucial to find an appropriate treatment to reduce the incidence of this complication.
