This study aimed to develop a measurement tool to assess employees' awareness of their rights and responsibilities before and after a potential occupational accident and disease. . The study used a quantitative research method and was conducted with factory workers in the production sector in Sakarya province between April and December 2023. Firstly, scope validity was performed to develop the scale. Confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) was then conducted for construct validity. The scale's reliability was determined using the Cronbach internal consistency coefficient. In CFA, all goodness-of-fit indices confirmed the acceptable fit of the model: root mean square error of approximation (rmsea) = 0.080, normalized fit index (NFI = 0.925), comparative fit index (CFI = 0.950), standardized root mean square residual (SRMR = 0.044), fit index ( /  = 2.800), Tucker-Lewis index (TLI = 0.944). . The occupational accident and disease awareness scale is a valid and reliable instrument for assessing employees' awareness of rights and responsibilities in occupational accidents and diseases.

Background: Health inequality in Latin America is particularly severe for individuals living with HIV (PLHIV) and key populations, such as men who have sex with men, transgender women, people who use drugs, and sex workers. Despite regional programs aimed at reducing health inequalities, such as the Sustainable Development Goals and the Sustainable Health Agenda for the Americas 2018-2030, the COVID-19 health crisis has exposed significant shortcomings in national healthcare systems for PLHIV and key populations. The multi-country, community-based research program, EPIC, was developed by Coalition PLUS within an network of community-based organizations engaged in the response to HIV and viral hepatitis.

Excessive salt consumption has been linked with the emergence of hypertension, which further leads to cardiovascular disease development among other medical conditions. This has resulted in leading world institutions such as the WHO coming up with relevant plans to minimize its use. Lower-middle-income countries (LMICs) have greatest burden of noncommunicable diseases (NCDs), with hypertension being a common condition.

Article Synopsis
  • The study focused on assessing Saudi women's knowledge and practices regarding breast self-examination (BSE) and mammography in Arar City, highlighting the importance of early breast cancer detection.
  • Most participants were aware of BSE (84.2%) and had good knowledge about it (80%), but only a small percentage (33.5%) actually performed BSE, and even fewer (19.5%) underwent mammography screening despite acknowledging its safety (65.1%).
  • The results suggest that while awareness is high, there is a significant gap in practice, underscoring the need for targeted educational campaigns to enhance early detection and screening behaviors among women.

Background: Nasal myiasis, an infestation by fly larvae, is a rare condition typically associated with immunocompromised individuals, poor hygiene, and low socioeconomic status. It is commonly seen in tropical regions and is often linked to chronic sinonasal diseases or underlying health conditions. However, cases in healthy individuals without predisposing factors are uncommon, making this case novel and worthy of documentation.
