Abstract Objective When patients feel spiritually supported by staff, we find increased use of hospice and reduced aggressive treatments at end life, yet substantial barriers to staff spiritual care provision still exist. We aimed study these in a new cultural context analyzed subgroup with “unrealized potential” for improved provision: those who are positively inclined toward do not themselves provide it. Method distributed the Religion Spirituality Cancer Care Study via Middle East...
Background: Cancer incidence in the world is predicted to increase next decade. While progress has been diagnosis and treatment, much still remains be done improve cancer pain therapy, mainly underserved communities low-income countries. Objective: To determine knowledge, beliefs, barriers regarding management both high- countries (according WHO classification); learn about ways current state of affairs. Design: Descriptive survey. Setting/Subjects: Fifty-six worldwide; convenience sample...
Patients with ischemic stroke frequently develop hemorrhagic transformation (HT), which could potentially worsen the prognosis. The objectives of current study were to determine incidence and predictors HT, evaluate predictor interaction, identify optimal predicting models.A prospective included 360 patients stroke, whom 354 successfully continued study. subjected thorough general neurological examination T2 diffusion-weighted MRI, at admission 1 week later HT. HT selected by a filter-based...
Cerebrovascular stroke is considered as the most common cause of symptomatic seizures. Post-stroke seizures herald a poor functional outcome, high mortality rate, and long in-hospital duration stay.To assess incidence risk factors responsible for early after first-ever cerebral stroke, its relation to outcome following well stay.150 patients with who were admitted in an intensive care unit Neurology Department Zagazig University Hospitals, Egypt, within first 24 hours onset included study....
Abstract Background Vitamin D deficiency has been proposed as a risk factors of cerebrovascular stroke. Objectives The aim this study was firstly, to assess the serum level vitamin in cerebral stroke patients and secondly, examine if its associated with severity outcome. Methods We utilized case-control design recruited 138 acute age- sex-matched controls from subjects attending outpatient clinic for other reasons. All participants were subjected full general neurological examination. Brain...
Abstract Background Patients with ischemic stroke and atrial fibrillation (AF) are at high risk of developing hemorrhagic transformation (HT). The aim the current study is to evaluate incidence associated factors in a hospital-based sample AF patients. A prospective total 234 patients was consecutively recruited. HT determined by computed tomography (CT) or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Risk identified comparing without HT. Results 22.6%. Univariate analysis established that old age,...
Abstract Background The role of adipokines such as leptin and adiponectin in regulating the immunity has been documented, however data concerning their consequence on multiple sclerosis (MS) Egyptian patients are deficient. aim this study is to demonstrate serum levels MS assess association with disease disability severity. A case–control including 60 subjects (30 30 age, sex body mass index-matched healthy controls) was performed. Results Serum level significantly higher among than controls...
Abstract Headache with a neurological deficit and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) lymphocytosis (HaNDL) is usually under-recognized under-reported. HaNDL self-limiting condition, but the grave symptoms require large-scale differential diagnosis. We report case of 24-year-old female who developed dysarthria for several hours decreased use right arm right-sided facial weakness. After extensive investigation blood, CSF, neuroimaging, we excluded central nervous system infections autoimmune vascular...
Background:Previous studies had linked obesity to the pathogenesis and risk of multiple sclerosis (MS) but little is known about its association with disease course. Objective: This study aimed assess frequency in MS patients relation disability. Methods: A cross-section included 60 clinically definite relapsing remitting was selected from inpatients wards outpatients clinic Neurology Department, Zagazig during period March 2020 September 2020. All underwent a thorough physical neurological...
Background: Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a neurodegenerative disease, and considered chronic inflammatory disease.Retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL) thickness as structural biomarker for axonal loss in MS. Objective:The aim of the present study was to assess role optical coherence tomography (OCT) detecting RNFL MS patients without history optic neuritis correlate with disease duration disability.Patients methods: Case-control included 34 clinically definite relapsing remitting multiple (RRMS)...
