The literature is scarce regarding the safety or efficacy of closed reduction attempts of acute glenohumeral fracture dislocations. The objective of this study was to assess the safety and success rate of attempted closed reduction of proximal humerus fracture dislocations. A retrospective review was performed on all proximal humerus fracture dislocations seen at one institution from 2011-2015 in order to evaluate for clinical scenarios with greater failure rates of glenohumeral fracture dislocation joint reductions by closed manipulation. The results indicate that, in general, reduction attempts are safe, but that success rates are inversely proportional to fracture severity.

Liquid fertilizers, particularly when integrated with precision irrigation systems, offer a more efficient and sustainable alternative to traditional solid nitrogen fertilizers. The industrial production of ammonium nitrate (NHNO) is environmentally detrimental due to its reliance on fossil fuels. This study introduces an innovative air-to-NOx-to-NHNO pathway for synthesizing liquid nitrogen fertilizer.

Background & objectives Surgical site infections (SSIs) are among the most prevalent healthcare-associated infections (HCAIs). They cause significant morbidity, leading to excess health expenditures and increased length of hospital stay. Despite a high population burden, data on post-discharge SSIs is lacking from low-and middle-income countries (LMICs).

Our review study addresses the issue of tooth loss, which is caused by loss of masticatory function and its impact on cognitive functions, dementia, and Alzheimer's disease. Numerous studies have confirmed a positive correlation between premature tooth loss, reduction in masticatory function and significant cognitive decline observed through learning disabilities, including overcoming ordinary life problems to early and advanced forms of dementia. Reduced numbers of teeth in the main food processing area, i.

Introduction: Social isolation is a main risk factor for loneliness, health issues and psychological diseases. With its restriction measures, the coronavirus pandemic has led to an objective reduction in meaningful interactions, communication, and social contacts in general (social isolation). However, it has been shown that older adults cope differently with social isolation.

Background: Highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) (H5N1) has been endemic in Egypt for almost two decades, profoundly impacting both the poultry industry and public health. Egypt stands as a prominent epicenter for HPAI H5N1 outbreaks in Africa, marked by the highest number of positive human cases. Despite continuous governmental efforts, prior research underscored the inadequacy of strategies in controlling the virus spread.
