The development of new therapies, especially herbal medicines, has received much global attention.is a medicinal plant. Its gum is used in healing known ail…

Selecting an appropriate outcome measure is a critical step in designing valid and useful clinical trials and outcome studies. This selection process needs to extend beyond examining basic psychometric properties to consider additional features of instruments that may affect their validity and utility for the study's p…

Physicians are faced with a burgeoning literature of economic studies. However, most physicians have little training in evaluating economic research. Economic studies involve a comparison of the costs and benefits of alternative treatment options. To be of use for medical decision making, they should meet appropriate m…

This study takes a phenomenon-based framework and the self-transcending constructions approach to explain why wicked human services problems need to be addressed differently than wicked social-ecological problems. Based on the study's findings, a new approach for addressing wicked human services problems is proposed. I…

Prior studies explored the production and technical efficiency of fish farms and farmers from the perspectives of factors such as credit access and cooperative membership. We focused on the chronic non-communicable diseases (NCDs) of household members and their quantitative impacts on fish farm production efficiency, b…

Modern medical technology innovation is a critical safeguard for human health, while a significant number of developing nations are confronted with the challenge of biopharmaceutical technological advancement. To investigate the possible routes of technological advancement, we investigated the impact of the endogenous…

Neuroscientific studies aim to find an accurate and reliable brain Effective Connectome (EC). Although current EC discovery methods have contributed to our understanding of brain organization, their performances are severely constrained by the short sample size and poor temporal resolution of fMRI data, and high dimens…

Treated 70 patients for alcohol dependency. Various degrees of cortical dysfunctioning were represented as measured by the Halstead-Reitan Neuropsychological Battery. The study's purpose was to determine whether there was a relationship between brain-behavior and hypnotic susceptibility as measured by the Stanford Hypn…

The purpose of this study was to determine the center of mass of the trunk in living subjects by using computed tomography (CT), thus providing more accurate data to aid scientists in their effort to describe human motion quantitatively. This advanced x-ray was used to analyze the trunk segment of four subjects, two me…

The physician-researcher is a key figure in the development of modern medicine. Many physicians are involved in bioresearch, be it basic research in the laboratory or in the field of clinical trials, as partners of new drug/device development. A clinical trial is a systematic and controlled study of a medical intervent…

Conducting an international research study may bear various challenges; however, during the global COVID-19 crisis, such a study undertakes unpredictable trajectories. This paper explores the challenges experienced by researchers studying Syrian refugees' physical and mental health and aid workers serving under humanit…

This letter commends the study by Wang et al. on the association between in-hospital hemoglobin (Hb) drift and outcomes in aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH) patients undergoing surgical clipping. The study's findings highlight the importance of vigilant Hb monitoring and timely interventions. Future research di…

Yorkshire piglets serve as valuable animal models in biomedical research, including partial heart transplantation research. This study characterizes the swine leukocyte antigen (SLA) diversity within a cohort of 16 Yorkshire piglets, including 5 genetically modified to express green fluorescent protein (GFP). Employing…

PURPOSE: Self-efficacy, or a person's belief in his/her ability to perform specific tasks, has been correlated with workplace performance and role adjustments.
