Disease relapse post-treatment is reported in co-infection with other bacterial and parasitic infections, but reactivation is not very common with viral infections. Early recognition and diagnosis of a malaria relapse in a non-endemic region pose a diagnostic dilemma.

The study used cross-sectional regression and switching regression regime for empirical analysis. The result shows a positive relationship between changes in price level and carbon emissions that verify "welfare-reducing effects," while there is a negative relationship between population growth and poverty at varying poverty threshold to support the "Gary Becker human capital theory.

Aim: To explore the prognostic value of initial PP in ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) and non-ST elevation ACS (NSTE-ACS).
Methods: Over a 5-month period in 2007, 6704 consecutive patients with ACS were categorized into five groups according to initial PP: P1, PP ≤0; P2, PP 31-40; P3, PP 41-50; P4, PP 51-60; P5, PP>60mmHg.
Aim: To evaluate changes in management practices and its influence on short term hospital outcomes in patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI) admitted during two different time periods, 2007 and 2004.
Methods And Results: We studied AMI patients from two acute coronary syndrome registries carried out in Kuwait in 2007 and 2004. We included 1872 and 1197 patients from the 2007 and 2004 registries, respectively.
We describe the baseline characteristics, management, and outcomes of acute coronary syndrome (ACS) in patients of age ≤ 40 in the Gulf region of the Middle East. We studied 8176 hospitalized patients (≤ 40 years) with ACS. Ten percent (805) of the recruited patients were ≤ 40 years.
