udents with awareness and knowledge of IPV and specific information regarding local resources and referrals for any patients experiencing IPV.Type 2 diabetes (T2DM) prevalence is three times higher among West African Immigrants compared to the general population in the UK. The challenges of managing T2DM among this group have resulted in…[Read more]

Furthermore, this as-prepared device is also capable of serving as a self-powered capacitive sensor for detection of tiny mechanical impacts and measurement of human finger bending. This results of this work provides a new avenue to easily fabricate electrostatic nanogenerators with high durability and self-powered capacitive sensors for the…[Read more]

Myofunctional therapy is currently a reasonable therapeutic option to treat obstructive sleep apnea-hypopnea syndrome (OSAHS). This therapy is based on performing regular exercises of the upper airway muscles to increase their tone and prevent their collapse. Over the past decade there has been an increasing number of publications in this area;…[Read more]

Zinc, an abundant transition metal, serves as a signalling molecule in several biological systems. Zinc transporters are genetically associated with cardiovascular diseases but the function of zinc in vascular tone regulation is unknown. We found that elevating cytoplasmic zinc using ionophores relaxed rat and human isolated blood vessels and…[Read more]

The COVID-19 pandemic has endangered human health and production since 2019. As an emerging disease caused by SARS-CoV-2, its potential transmissibility via aerosols has caused heated debate. This work summarizes the current research findings on virus aerosol generation, aerodynamic properties, and environmental influencing factors on their…[Read more]

Although numerous materials have been explored as bone scaffolds, many of them are limited by their low osteoconductivity and a high biodegradability. Therefore, new materials are desired to induce bone cell proliferation and facilitate the bone formation. Attapulgite (ATP) is a hydrated silicate that exists in nature as a fibrillar clay mineral…[Read more]

Diabetic kidney disease (DKD) is a major long-term complication of diabetes mellitus (DM). Given the paucity of data on DKD in Jordan, we aimed to evaluate the prevalence, characteristics and correlates of DKD in Jordanian patients with type 2 DM.

This cross-sectional study included 1398 adult patients with type 2 DM who sought medical…[Read more]

to the already available products.In resectable gastric or gastroesophageal junction cancer (GC/GEJC), the powerful positive prognostic effect and the potential predictive value for a lack of benefit from the combination of adjuvant/peri-operative chemotherapy for the MSI-high status was demonstrated. Given the high sensitivity of MSI-high tumors…[Read more]
