7±0.3, S/B = 21±2.1, Z’ = 0.75±0.04. Pilot screen of FDA-approved drug library (n=1,400 compounds) demonstrated hit rate of 0.5%. Two compounds demonstrated pharmacological response and were authenticated by western blot analysis.

We developed a highly robust HTS-amenable high content screening assay capable of monitoring down re…[Read more]

Neonatal infection, a leading cause of neonatal death in low- and middle-income countries, is often caused by pathogens acquired during childbirth. Clean delivery kits (CDKs) have shown efficacy in reducing infection-related perinatal and neonatal mortality. However, there remain gaps in our current knowledge, including the effect of individual…[Read more]

Primary clival mucoceles are a rare clinical entity that usually represents an incidental finding on computed tomography or magnetic resonance imaging scanning. There are only a few reports in the literature of patients who presented with vague symptoms such as headaches, facial paresthesia, and numbness. Clival mucoceles can also be secondary, by…[Read more]

Road traffic injuries (RTIs) are increasing and have disproportionate impact on residents of low- and middle-income countries (LMICs) where 90% of deaths occur. RTIs are a leading cause of death for those aged 15 – 29 years with costs estimated to be up to 3% of GDP. Despite this fact, little primary research has been done on the household…[Read more]

This study underlines the biotechnical valorization of the accumulated and unusable remains of agro-industrial orange fruit peel waste to produce α-amylase under submerged conditions by Streptomyces sp. KP314280 (20r). The response surface methodology based on central composite design (RSM-CCD) and artificial neural network coupled with a genetic…[Read more]

in the medical field, and to reduce biases arising from inaccurate representation of different study populations, women’s enrolment in Arab cardiovascular trials should be pre-planned and based on the percentage of women among the studied disease population.

Patients with cystic fibrosis (CF) develop with progressive loss of lung function and…[Read more]
