Evolution of injury burden in Qatari professional football - 8 season data from the Aspetar Injury and Illness Surveillance Programme.

Prospectively collected injury surveillance data are essential for designing and implementing injury prevention programmes. We investigated the incidence, characteristics and patterns of professional football injuries in Qatar, providing details on the most observed injuries' burden. We prospectively recorded individual time-loss injuries and training/match exposure from 17 professional football teams in Qatar during 8 seasons (2014/15 to 2021/22).

Computational design of potent dimeric phenylthiazole NS5A inhibitors for hepatitis C virus.

Hepatitis C virus (HCV) presents a significant global health issue due to its widespread prevalence and the absence of a reliable vaccine for prevention. While significant progress has been achieved in therapeutic interventions since the disease was first identified, its resurgence underscores the need for innovative strategies to combat it. The nonstructural protein NS5A is crucial in the life cycle of the HCV, serving as a significant factor in both viral replication and assembly processes.

Computational Design of (B)Chl Models: Structural and Chemical Modifications toward Enriched Properties.

The functional units of natural photosynthetic systems control the process of converting sunlight into chemical energy. In this article, we explore a series of chemically and structurally modified bacteriochlorophyll and chlorophyll pigments through computational chemistry to evaluate their electronic spectroscopy properties. More specifically, we use multiconfigurational and time-dependent density functional theory methods, along with molecular dynamics simulations, to compute the models' energetics both in an implicit and explicit solvent environment.

Prevalence of interdigital pilonidal sinus in hair professionals during the COVID-19 pandemic: A cross-sectional study.

Interdigital Pilonidal Sinus (IPNS), also known as barber's disease, is a rare occupational disease that affects hairdressers and barbers. It develops when customers' hair penetrates the webspace between the fingers, causing a foreign body reaction. This cross-sectional study, conducted across all five governorates in Bahrain, aimed to investigate the prevalence of IPNS among hairdressers and barbers in Bahrain.
