Comparative analysis of hospital laboratory wastewater treatment techniques in Syrian Arab Republic.
East Mediterr Health J
December 2024
Department of Basic Sciences, Faculty of Civil Engineering, University of Aleppo, Aleppo, Syria.
Background: Hospital wastewater poses a significant threat to human health due to the presence of difficult-to-degrade organic compounds, active pharmaceutical ingredients and multiple inorganic substances that can pollute water resources and ecosystems.
Aim: To compare the effectiveness of different techniques for removing organic load from hospital laboratory wastewater in Aleppo, Syria.
Methods: We treated wastewater samples from hospital laboratories at Aleppo University Hospital, Syria, using several techniques, including biological treatment with the rotating biological contactor, adsorption with Syrian natural clay, coagulation with aluminium sulphate, advanced oxidation with ultrasound, and a combined treatment using natural clay and ultrasound.

Department of Physiology, Kampala International University, Western Campus, Ishaka, Uganda.
Purpose: Diabetes mellitus is a global health challenge that leads to severe complications, negatively impacting overall health, life expectancy, and quality of life. Herbal medicines, valued for their accessibility and therapeutic benefits with minimal side effects, have been promoted as potential treatments. Managing conditions like diabetes, characterized by free radical production and cytokine-driven inflammation, is vital due to the active components in plants that exert direct pharmacological effects.

Front Mol Biosci
December 2024
Metabolomics Section, Department of Clinical Genomics, Center for Genomics Medicine, King Faisal Specialist Hospital and Research Centre (KFSHRC), Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.
Introduction: Gestational Diabetes Mellitus (GDM) is a metabolic disorder marked by Q10 hyperglycemia that can negatively affect both mothers and newborns. The increasing prevalence of GDM and the limitations associated with the standard diagnostic test highlight the urgent need for early screening strategies that promote timely interventions.
Methods: This study aims to investigate the metabolic profile associated with GDM through an untargeted metabolomic analysis using mass spectrometry (MS)- based omics.
Incidence and impact of other malignancies after immunochemotherapy by fludarabine, cyclophosphamide, and rituximab as frontline treatment for chronic lymphocytic leukemia: A single-center retrospective study.
Clin Hematol Int
January 2025
Service d'Hématologie Clinique et Thérapie Cellulaire Hôpital Saint-Antoine.
Individuals with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) or small lymphocytic lymphoma (SLL) have a high risk of developing other malignancies (OMs). The development of OMs may be associated with the advanced age of CLL/SLL patients, presence of a tumor-promoting microenvironment, immune alterations inherent to CLL/SLL, or chemotherapy. Importantly, the occurrence of OMs following frontline fludarabine, cyclophosphamide and rituximab (FCR) treatment is associated with a reduction in the overall survival (OS).
