Awareness and Knowledge of the National Healthcare Transformation Program Among Public Health and Preventive Medicine Physicians in Saudi Arabia.

Background: The Health Sector Transformation Program (HSTP) has been established as part of Saudi Vision 2030. Despite the significant progress achieved in previous years, the HSTP addresses multiple challenges. One of these challenges is that the current healthcare model prioritizes treatment over prevention.

Development and evaluation of quercetin enriched bentonite-reinforced starch-gelatin based bioplastic with antimicrobial property.

Nowadays novel bio-based materials have been widely employed in food and pharmaceutical industry because of their wide acceptability by the consumers rather than the synthetic materials nevertheless, they possess poor mechanical properties. Reinforcement of biopolymers with intercalation of mineral clays can improve their physicochemical properties; so that such biocomposites possess superior barrier and mechanical properties as well as stability and drug loading efficacy. Thus, this research aimed at formulating quercetin loaded bentonite-reinforced starch-gelatin based novel bioplastic with diverse applicability.

Prevalence, Predictors, and Management of Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease After Laparoscopic Sleeve Gastrectomy: a Multicenter Cohort Study.

Background: One of the most popular bariatric procedures is laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG), which can either cause or worsen gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD). Therefore, the goal of this study was to examine the prevalence, predictors, and management of GERD symptoms after LSG.

Materials And Methods: From January 2017 to January 2022, we looked at patients who had a primary LSG and developed GERD.

Predictors of poor outcomes among patients of acute methanol intoxication with particular reference to Sequential Organ Failure Assessment (SOFA) score.

Methanol intoxication is a global problem with serious morbidities and mortalities. Apart from the lifelong disabilities experienced by methanol intoxication survivors, mortality rates of up to 44% of exposed patients have been reported. The aim of the current study was to outline the early findings that could be utilized as effective in-hospital outcome predictors among cases of methanol exposure.

Coconut oil-based resveratrol nanoemulsion: Optimization using response surface methodology, stability assessment and pharmacokinetic evaluation.

Phytochemicals are widely studied for therapeutic applications and nanostructured delivery systems for phytochemicals are under spotlight. Resveratrol is a promising candidate for neurodegenerative disorders. In the present study, we aimed to formulate nanoemulsion of resveratrol by ultrasonication process using response surface methodology.
