Introduction We assessed whether the Women for International (WfWI) economic and social empowerment programme could reduce women’s experiences of intimate partner violence (IPV) depression in Afghanistan. Methods conducted a two-arm individually randomised controlled trial six urban peri-urban communities. Communities were selected by WfWI being conflict affected showing signs vulnerability (eg, little or no education, living extreme poverty). Individual eligibility female, aged 18–49, able...

Abstract Background Recent studies suggest the benefit to salvage oral (PO) antibiotics support people who use drugs (PWUD) with serious bacterial infections leave before medically advised (BMA) prior completing antibiotics. We compared of PO in PWUD S. aureus bacteremia (SAB) discharged BMA versus after implementation a multidisciplinary discharge planning conference for requiring long-term and publication recent literature suggesting patients leaving BMA. Methods performed retrospective...

The Women for International (WfWI) intervention a year-long combined economic social empowerment marginalized women survivors conflict. Primarily, it seeks support achieve four key outcomes: earn save money; improve their health well-being; influence decisions homes communities; connect networks support....

INTRODUCTION: The prevalence of metabolic dysfunction–associated fatty liver disease (MAFLD) and its complication, MAFLD-related acute-on-chronic failure (MAFLD-ACLF), is rising. Yet, factors determining patient outcomes in MAFLD-ACLF remain understudied. METHODS: Patients with were recruited from the Asian Pacific Association for Study Liver-ACLF Research Consortium (AARC registry). diagnosis was made when treating unit had identified etiology chronic as MAFLD (or previous nomenclature such...

Asymptomatic chronic hepatitis B virus (HBV) carriers are at risk of developing complications liver disease, but these patients not recommended for treatment with antiviral drugs. In fact, drugs ineffective in the immune tolerance phase, when they have inadequate levels host immunity. We postulated that combination therapy an modulator and may potential to help patients. Twenty-five incidentally-detected asymptomatic HBV were immunized vaccine (10 μg surface antigen) intramuscularly five...

Introduction: Hepatitis C virus (HCV) is a leading cause of chronic liver disease worldwide including Bangladesh. Approximately 0.84% our population infected with HCV. Genotypes HCV are important in the determination treatment duration and predicting response to infection. Methodology: 61 consecutive patients who presented us hepatitis (CHC) could afford having no features decompensation were included study. Results: Of study subjects, 46 males 15 females.

Left atrial ball valve thrombus is an unusual condition, especially in patients with normal mitral valve. In the present case, we describe a 61-year-old female restrictive cardiomyopathy who presented large left thrombus, which subsequently embolized to right carotid artery and was treated intravenous thrombolysis. This case provides useful insight into genesis of such thrombi highlights management dilemmas rare clinical problem.

Background: In general, it is assumed that patients with chronic hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection high viral load exhibit increased liver damages. Accordingly, the treatment guidelines emphasize on reducing in HBV carriers. The ethical and scientific basis of these observations was mainly accumulated from investigations developed countries world. More than 80% carriers live developing nations world, but little known about relationship between extent damages countries. this study, we...

Abstract The Internet of Things (IoT) is transitioning towards Quantum Computing soon, relying on electromagnetic waves for data transfer within circuits and between IoT devices. This paper introduces a four-level atomic medium controlled by fields to manipulate the speed light, resulting in subluminal superluminal information IoT. Subluminal propagation transmits at an average rate, while transfers faster than conventional methods. differentiation these two modes determined sign group...
