Selenium nanoparticles (SeNPs) have recently gained much attention in nanomedicine applications owing to their unique biological properties. Biosynthesis of SeNPs using nutraceuticals as lycopene (LYC) maximizes stability and bioactivities. In this context, study aimed elucidate the renoprotective activity coated with LYC (LYC-SeNPs) acute kidney injury (AKI) model.Rats were divided into six groups: control, AKI (glycerol-treated), AKI+sodium selenite (Na2SeO3; 0.5 mg/kg), AKI+LYC (10...
Quality improvement is a strategic priority for all healthcare systems. However, the engagement of providers in pursuing accreditation plays critical role integrating standards into routine practice. Therefore, current study assessed perceptions, attitudes, and barriers towards using Central Board Accreditation Healthcare Institutions (CBAHI) among Saudi providers.
Thyroid cancer is the most prevalent endocrine among female population in Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (KSA) and ninth common male Arabia. Over past years, an increasing incidence thyroid has been reported However, etiology still not clear. Therefore, this study aimed to estimate mortality trends from 1990 2019. The current utilized Global Burden Disease Institute for Health Metrics Evaluation databases extract prevalence data Moreover, project utilizes (GBD) web-based tools visualize these data....
Coronavirus disease 2019 has become a global health threat resulting in catastrophic spread and more than 3.8 million deaths worldwide. It been suggested that there is negative influence of diabetes mellites (DM), which complex chronic disease, on COVID-19 severe outcomes. Other factors diabetic patients may also contribute to outcomes, such as older age, obesity, hyperglycaemia, hypertension, other conditions.A cohort study was conducted the demographics, clinical information, laboratory...
Objectives: This study aims to investigate hemostatic changes in patients with coronavirus disease (COVID-19) and their relationship severity survival. Methods: included 284 COVID-19 who attended the Security Forces Hospital, Makkah, Saudi Arabia between October 2020 March 2021, retrospectively reviewed demographic, radiological, laboratory findings. The coagulation profile was assayed at time of diagnosis for platelet counts using an automated hematology analyzer; Sysmex XN2000 while...
Introduction The human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) and acquired syndrome (HIV/AIDS) are worldwide public health issues. Since Saudi Arabia is growing more accessible to the outside world, it critical analyze general population's knowledge of HIV/AIDS transmission modes attitudes toward infected people, level awareness. Therefore, this study aimed assess as well awareness among population in Kingdom Arabia. Methods current online community-based cross-sectional descriptive was conducted...
This study was aimed at determining the prevalence estimate and association of transfusion-transmitted infections (TTIs) with ABO Rh blood groups among donors King Faisal Specialist Hospital Research Center (KFSH & RC) in western region Saudi Arabia. A retrospective conducted bank center KFSH RC from 1 January 2013 to 31 December 2019. Data on group testing, serological molecular investigations, assays, nucleic acid testing (NATs), socio-demographic information were gathered. During period,...
In the wake of COVID-19 pandemic, research indicates that disease susceptibility varies among individuals depending on their ABO blood groups. Researchers globally commenced investigating potential methods to stratify cases according prognosis several clinical parameters. Since there is evidence a link between groups and susceptibility, it could be argued manifestation progression. The current study investigates whether manifestation, laboratory, imaging findings vary hospitalized confirmed...
Here, we investigated the protective efficacy of protocatechuic acid (PCA) against lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced septic lung injury. Eighty-two male Balb/c mice were divided into six groups: control, PCA30 (30 mg/kg), LPS (10 PCA10-LPS, PCA20-LPS, and PCA30-LPS treated with 10, 20 30 mg/kg PCA, respectively, for seven days before intraperitoneal injection. PCA pre-treatment, especially at higher dose, significantly reduced LPS-induced tissue injury as indicated by increased heat shock...
Inherited hemoglobinopathies are common in Jazan Province, Saudi Arabia, and some patients may frequently require a blood transfusion. Therefore, the provision of compatible units using extended phenotypes is necessary to preclude risk alloimmunization. This study aimed investigate frequencies Lewis (LE), Lutheran (LU), P1 antigens, as well determine prevalence LE LU phenotypes.This collected 150 samples from Arabian anonymous volunteering donors at Prince Muhammed bin Nasser Hospital...
Blood donation is vital for healthcare; however, transfusion-transmitted infections (TTIs) pose a serious risk. This study investigated the seroprevalence of TTIs among Saudi blood donors.
Jazan Province in Saudi Arabia is notable for its high prevalence of inherited hemoglobinopathies, including sickle cell disease and thalassemia, necessitating frequent blood transfusions affected individuals. To mitigate risks such as RBC alloimmunization hemolytic transfusion reactions, ensuring compatibility crucial. The Kell (KEL) group system, pivotal alongside the ABO RH systems, encompasses multiple antigens implicated these complications. This study aimed to investigate frequencies...
In Covid-19, the pathological effect of SARS-CoV-2 infection is arbitrated through direct viral toxicity, unusual immune response, endothelial dysfunction, deregulated renin-angiotensin system [RAS], and thrombo-inflammation, leading to acute lung injury (ALI), with a succession respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) in critical conditions. C1 esterase inhibitor (C1INH) protease that inhibits spontaneous activation complement contact systems kinin pathway, clotting, fibrinolytic systems....
This research study aims at investigating knowledge, attitudes, and practices (KAPs) of healthcare workers towards the Middle East respiratory syndrome (MERS), also known as camel flu, caused by MERS-CoV coronavirus. The present focuses on Hajj season in 2019 city Al-Madinah Al-Munawwarah Saudi Arabia it is one most beloved cities for Muslim pilgrims who keep visiting its famous lovely prophetic Mosque (Al-Masjid Al-Nabawi). For that, almost 500.000 visitors come to everyday. Most year,...
Abstract Background: This study aimed to assess knowledge about and attitude towards blood donation among students at the Faculty of Applied Medical Sciences King Abdulaziz University. In Saudi Arabia, shortage donors is a major challenge in banks. could be due low levels community unfavorable attitudes. Methods: A community-based cross-sectional was conducted between November 2017 July 2018. total 350 were randomly selected interviewed using well-structured validated electronic...
Testing of blood donors for markers transfusion-transmitted infections (TTIs) such as HBV, HCV, HIV, HTLV, syphilis, and malaria is mandatory in Saudi Arabia. This study determined the prevalence all tested TTIs among western region Arabia.This retrospective included 5,473 who attended donation center at Security Force Hospital (SFH) located Arabia from January 1, 2015 to December 31, 2018. The was classified per year, gender, age, type (first-time vs. returned donors), category (replacement...
The rate of infections in the intensive care units (ICUs) is rising, mainly because increasing use invasive procedures and specialized devices.
