Hymenoptera venom allergy is a potentially life-threatening allergic reaction following honeybee, vespid, or ant sting. Systemic-allergic sting reactions have been reported in up to 7.5% of adults and 3.4% children. They can be mild restricted the skin moderate severe with risk anaphylaxis. Patients should carry an emergency kit containing adrenaline autoinjector, H1 -antihistamines, corticosteroids depending on severity their previous reaction(s). The only treatment prevent further systemic...
More older people are living in the community with multiple diagnoses and medications. Managing medications produces issues of unrivalled complexity for those involved. Despite increasing literature on subject, gaps remain understanding how, why whom complex medication management works, therefore how best to improve practice outcomes. MEMORABLE, MEdication Management Older people: Realist Approaches Based Literature Evaluation, aimed address these gaps.
Background: Hospital-acquired infections (HAIs) represent a significant healthcare challenge globally, with Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) being leading cause of skin and soft tissue infections. Methicillin-resistant (MRSA) poses an even greater threat due to its resistance commonly used antibiotics. Understanding the prevalence patterns MRSA is crucial developing effective infection control strategies, especially in resource-limited settings like Peshawar, Pakistan. Objective: To...

Design A realist approach...
Developing new techniques to overcome poor solubility in drug development remains a challenge for the pharmaceutical industry. It is estimated that up 40% of newly discovered chemical entities are insoluble. This has led industry turn approaches such as nanotechnology help solubility. Nanotechnology based delivery systems have been associated with improving therapeutic activity and minimising undesirable side effects drugs. an emerging field potential change way illnesses treated drugs...
