Unlike previous research that focused on broad immune markers and general effects, this study investigated specific proinflammatory cytokines (IL-1ß, IL-2, IL-4, IL-6, and TNF-alpha) and considered gender differences in the immune response. Fresh khat plants and nontoxic doses were used to obtain clear observations relevant to human health.

This study aimed to provide comprehensive insights into the literature on Frankincense and Myrrh research (FMR) by examining patterns, perspectives, and research trends within the research landscape.
Methods: This bibliometric study utilized MeSH-generated terms, followed the PRISMA guidelines, and analyzed English-based bibliographic data from original studies retrieved from the Scopus database.
Background: Over the past 15 years, WORLD NEUROSURGERY (WN) has emerged as a pivotal source in the neurosurgery field, reflecting remarkable growth and development. Originally published as Surgical Neurology from 1973 to 2009, the journal transitioned to its current title in 2010, significantly expanding its reach and influence.
Methods: A comprehensive bibliometric analysis of WN's publications from 1973 to 2023 was performed.
The project aimed to conduct an up-to-date and comprehensive bibliometric analysis of robotic surgery to provide a detailed and holistic understanding of the field. Three strategies were employed in the data analysis i.e.

Design: A cross-sectional study was conducted between 1 August 2023 and the end of November 2023 at 4 governmental hospitals and 28 primary healthcare centres.
Setting: Hail City, Saudi Arabia.
Background: Research on Coffea arabica focuses on various aspects, including genetics, breeding, climate change resilience, pest and disease management, agronomy, sensory analysis, and sustainability. This study aims to analyze the hotspots, conceptual map and dynamicity, global landscape, and emerging trends in research (CA-R).
Methods: A comprehensive dataset comprising data-driven articles (N = 3967) from 1932 to 2023 was extracted from Scopus using predefined search terms.
Background: Determining the proportion of nurses reporting medication errors (MEs) and identifying the barriers they perceive in ME reporting are crucial to encourage nurses to actively report MEs.
Objective: This study aimed to determine the proportion of nurses experiencing and reporting MEs, perceived barriers to reporting MEs and their association with nurses' sociodemographic and work-related characteristics.
Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted among 350 nurses from June to November 2023.
Background: Supplemental O is not always available at health facilities in low-income and middle-income countries (LMICs). Solar-powered O delivery can overcome gaps in O access, generating O independent of grid electricity. We hypothesized that installation of solar-powered O systems on the paediatrics ward of rural Ugandan hospitals would lead to a reduction in mortality among hypoxaemic children.

View Article and Find Full Text PDFLack of access to pediatric medical devices and innovative technology contributes to global disparities in children's surgical care. There are currently many barriers that prevent access to these technologies in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs). Technologies that were designed for the needs of high-income countries (HICs) may not fit the resources available in LMICs.
View Article and Find Full Text PDFThe ventriculoperitoneal (VP) shunt has been one of the primary methods for treating hydrocephalus for many years and is one of the most frequent surgical interventions performed in neurosurgery using a variety of techniques and different VP shunt types. Consequently, shunt insertion is associated with many complications, including insertion failure, functional failure, and mechanical failure such as shunt migration. Shunt migration to the gastrointestinal or urogenital tract is a rare and one of the most distressing complications, which can lead to ascending infection and even meningitis.
