The aim of this study was to perform a systematic overview of the pharmacogenetic studies conducted in Jordan. A structured search of Medline was conducted for articles over the last decade (January 2010-July 2020). Studies were classified by design, sample size, drug-gene combination, and the significance of the results. Thirty-two studies met the criteria for review. Most pharmacogenomic studies had a case-only design (n = 23). Only five studies included >500 participants. The total number of genetic variants in all studies was one hundred fifteen, which were found in forty genes, including dynamic (n = 27), and kinetic (n = 9) genes. The most commonly studied drugs were within the hematology and cardiology therapeutic areas and included statins, warfarin, aspirin, and clopidogrel. Most studies (n = 18) reported results with mixed p values [<0.05 and >0.05]. Pharmacogenomic research in Jordan is still in its infancy and is limited mainly to replication attempts. The need for standardization is imperative, especially in developing countries with scarce funding resources.

Background: Traumatic anterior shoulder dislocation is the most common type of joint dislocation, with an incidence of 11 to 29 per 100 000 persons per year. Controversy still surrounds the recommendations for treatment and the available procedures for surgical stabilization.
Methods: This review is based on pertinent publications (2014-2024) that were retrieved by a selective search in the PubMed and Google Scholar databases.
Background: An estimated 17% of all couples worldwide are involuntarily childless (infertile). The clinically identifiable causes of infertility can be found in the male or female partner or in both. The molecular pathophysiology of infertility still remains unclear in many cases but is increasingly being revealed by genetic analyses.

This study reports on the development of a highly sensitive non-enzymatic electrochemical sensor based on a two-dimensional TiCT/MWCNT-OH nanocomposite for the detection of paraoxon-based pesticide. The synergistic effect between the TiCT nanosheet and the functionalized multi-walled carbon nanotubes enhanced the sensor's conductivity and catalytic activity. The nanocomposite demonstrates superior electrochemical and electroanalytical performance compared to the pristine TiCT and MWCNT-OH in detecting paraoxon-ethyl in fruit samples (green and red grapes), with a linear response range from 0.

Purpose: This cross-sectional study explored how the speechreading ability of adults with hearing impairment (HI) in China would affect their perception of the four Mandarin Chinese lexical tones: high (Tone 1), rising (Tone 2), falling-rising (Tone 3), and falling (Tone 4). We predicted that higher speechreading ability would result in better tone performance and that accuracy would vary among individual tones.
Method: A total of 136 young adults with HI (ages 18-25 years) in China participated in the study and completed Chinese speechreading and tone awareness tests.
