It unclear whether specific ELSs affect depression risk, cognitive function structure.This cross-sectional study included 64 antidepressant-free depressed 65 never-depressed individuals. Both groups reported a range on the Early Life Stress Questionnaire, completed neuropsychological testing 3T magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)....
The scale of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection among health care workers (HCWs), particularly in resource-limited settings, remains unclear. To address this concern, universal (non-symptom-based) screening HCWs was piloted to determine the proportion SARS-CoV-2 and associated epidemiological clinical risk factors at a large public facility Egypt.Baseline voluntary 4040 took place between 22 April 14 May 2020 12 hospitals medical centres Cairo....
Abstract Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) is a prevalent neurodevelopmental disorder, and early diagnosis plays pivotal role in prognosis management. This study aims to examine the psychometric properties of Mental Status Exam (AMSE), tool that shows great promise terms clinical utility, within Turkish population. conducted cohort 307 children aged 17 120 months with suspected ASD. Participants underwent multidisciplinary assessment based on DSM-5 criteria for were categorized into ASD non-ASD...

From April 2011 February 2014, total 2145 HF were recruited 20 all over Egypt. Of these...
BackgroundWe examined Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) seroconversion incidence and risk factors 21 days after baseline screening among healthcare workers (HCWs) in a resource-limited setting.MethodsA prospective cohort study of 4040 HCWs took place at 12 university facilities Cairo, Egypt; April-June 2020. Follow-up exposure clinical data were collected through online survey. SARS-CoV-2 testing was done using rapid IgM IgG serological tests reverse...

Background: Evidence supported a beneficial effect of ivabradine on clinical outcome patients with systolic heart failure, and sinus rate (HR) ≥ 70 bpm. We explored the ivabradine, vs. placebo, added to evidence-based treatment exercise tolerance quality life in idiopathic dilated cardiomyopathy. Methods: enrolled 43 consecutive cardiomyopathy no apparent cause, left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) < 40%, New York Heart Association class II, HR bpm, background anti-failure medications....
Abstract Aims This analysis evaluates gender differences in the Egyptian cohort of patients hospitalized for acute heart failure (AHF) European Society Cardiology Heart Failure Long‐Term Registry.
