The current study sought to assess the awareness, knowledge, and usage of FA among young females in Jazan region of Saudi Arabia.

Autoinjectors for Administering Glatiramer Acetate in Relapsing Remitting Multiple Sclerosis in Europe: A Survey of Patient and Nurse Preferences.

Purpose: Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a neurological disorder affecting almost 2.8 million people globally, approximately 80-85% of whom have the relapsing-remitting form of the disease (RRMS). There are several autoinjectors available for the administration of injectable disease-modifying therapies for the treatment of MS.

Bivariate - generalized extreme value distribution: A comparative approach with applications to climate related data.

The premise of extreme value theory focuses on the stochastic behaviour and occurrence of extreme observations in an event that is random. Traditionally for univariate case, the behaviour of the maxima is described either by the types-I, types-II or types-III extreme value distributions, primarily known as the Gumbel, Fréchet or reversed Weibull models. These are all particular cases of the generalized extreme value ( ) model.

Impact of iron deficiency anemia on academic achievement among female university students in Saudi Arabia.

Anemia, particularly iron deficiency anemia (IDA), is a prevalent health issue globally and in Saudi Arabia, especially among young adult females. This study investigates the association between anemia and academic achievement among female students at the Female Health Campus of Jazan University, Jazan, Saudi Arabia. This cross-sectional study included 118 randomly selected participants aged 18-22.

Application of Positive Psychology in Digital Interventions for Children, Adolescents, and Young Adults: Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis of Controlled Trials.

Background: The rising prevalence of mental health issues in children, adolescents, and young adults has become an escalating public health issue, impacting approximately 10%-20% of young people on a global scale. Positive psychology interventions (PPIs) can act as powerful mental health promotion tools to reach wide-ranging audiences that might otherwise be challenging to access. This increased access would enable prevention of mental disorders and promotion of widespread well-being by enhancing self-efficacy, thereby supporting the achievement of tangible objectives.

Intelligent tumor tissue classification for Hybrid Health Care Units.

Introduction: In the evolving healthcare landscape, we aim to integrate hyperspectral imaging into Hybrid Health Care Units to advance the diagnosis of medical diseases through the effective fusion of cutting-edge technology. The scarcity of medical hyperspectral data limits the use of hyperspectral imaging in disease classification.

Methods: Our study innovatively integrates hyperspectral imaging to characterize tumor tissues across diverse body locations, employing the Sharpened Cosine Similarity framework for tumor classification and subsequent healthcare recommendation.

Retinoblastoma: An update on genetic origin, classification, conventional to next-generation treatment strategies.

The most prevalent paediatric vision-threatening medical condition, retinoblastoma (RB), has been a global concern for a long time. Several conventional therapies, such as systemic chemotherapy and focal therapy, have been used for curative purposes; however, the search for tumour eradication with the least impact on surrounding tissues is still ongoing. This review focuses on the genetic origin, classification, conventional treatment modalities, and their combination with nano-scale delivery systems for active tumour targeting.

Design: Qualitative interviews and framework thematic analysis.

Setting: Kabul, Bamyan and Nangarhar in Afghanistan.

Neurosurgical Malpractice Litigation: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis.

Background: Neurosurgery has 1 of the highest risks for medical malpractice claims. We reviewed the factors associated with neurosurgical malpractice claims and litigation in the United States and reported the outcomes through a systematic review of the literature.

Methods: We conducted a systematic review of the literature according to the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analysis guidelines using the Medline, Embase, Cochrane, PubMed, and Google Scholar databases.

Systematic inspection on the interplay between MoNa-induced sodium and the formation of MoSe intermediate layer in CIGSe/Mo heterostructures.

The critical impact of sodium-doped molybdenum (MoNa) in shaping the MoSe interfacial layer, influencing the electrical properties of CIGSe/Mo heterostructures, and achieving optimal MoSe formation conditions, leading to improved hetero-contact quality. Notably, samples with a 600-nm-thick MoNa layer demonstrate the highest resistivity (73 μΩcm) and sheet resistance (0.45 Ω/square), highlighting the substantial impact of MoNa layer thickness on electrical conductivity.

DDFC: deep learning approach for deep feature extraction and classification of brain tumors using magnetic resonance imaging in E-healthcare system.

This research explores the use of gated recurrent units (GRUs) for automated brain tumor detection using MRI data. The GRU model captures sequential patterns and considers spatial information within individual MRI images and the temporal evolution of lesion characteristics. The proposed approach improves the accuracy of tumor detection using MRI images.

Assessing Nutritional Anemia Among University Students in Jazan, Saudi Arabia: A Public Health Perspective.

Background: Nutritional anemia is a significant public health concern worldwide, particularly affecting young adults and children in Saudi Arabia, where inadequate nutrition is considered a primary contributing factor. This study aims to (i) examine the levels of serum iron, folate, and vitamin B in young adult students, with a focus on identifying any deficiencies and their association with anemia; (ii) explore the prevalence of mixed-deficiency anemia resulting from deficiencies in serum iron, folate, and vitamin B (iii) explore how sociodemographic characteristics and dietary habits influence serum iron, folate, and vitamin B levels.

Materials And Methods: This cross-sectional study encompassed 158 young adult students at Jazan University, Saudi Arabia.

Role of deep brain stimulation (DBS) in addiction disorders.

Background: Addiction disorders pose significant challenges to public health, necessitating innovative treatments. This assesses deep brain stimulation (DBS) as a potential intervention for addiction disorders.

Methods: A literature review was carried out with a focus on the role of DBS in addiction disorders and its future implications in neurosurgical research.

Exploring antithrombin: insights into its physiological features, clinical implications and analytical techniques.

Antithrombin is an essential protein that acts as a natural anticoagulant in the human body. It is synthesized by the liver and belongs to the serine protease inhibitors, which are commonly referred to as the SERPINS superfamily. The antithrombin molecule comprises 432 amino acids and has a molecular weight of approximately 58 200 D.
