Autism manifests in various progressive, fluctuating, or static differences that may be disabling. This requires healthcare staff to provide individualized, culturally competent care for autistic people (AP). However, staff are underprepared since disability curricula are not universally implemented, which may exacerbate health disparities for AP.

Introduction: Older adults are at risk of adverse effects during chemotherapy including nausea and fatigue, but many also suffer from dizziness and peripheral neuropathy. This may lead to balance and walking impairments and increased risk of falls and affect health-related quality of life. Moreover, these symptoms are often underreported with inadequate awareness among health professionals leading to deficient focus on the need for targeted assessment and rehabilitation.

Background: Adverse drug reactions (ADRs) are a significant public health concern, particularly in limited resource settings where underreporting is prevalent due to various challenges. Mobile health applications (mHealth apps) offer a promising solution to enhance pharmacovigilance by facilitating easier and more efficient ADR reporting. However, despite the increasing availability and use of mHealth apps, there is a lack of evidence on healthcare professionals' willingness to adopt them for ADR reporting in resource-constrained environments.

Background and objective While hypertension (HTN) is a major health-related threat globally, it is often an under-reported clinical condition as most of the stage I hypertensive patients do not present with any symptoms. The relationship between endogenous oxygen-sensing protein [erythropoietin (EPO) and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF)] levels and vascular stress in hypertensive patients is not fully understood as the mechanistic pathway by which these oxygen-sensing proteins alter the vascular physiology and cause hypertension is still a matter of debate. In light of this, we explored the role of these two proteins in the development of vascular stress including increased pulse wave velocity (PWV).
