  Adherence to Immunosuppressive Medications in Kidney Transplant Patients at Three Centers in Khartoum State, Sudan: A Cross-sectional Hospital Study

summary:
  The availability was not con- sidered a barrier for immunosuppressive medications adherence; however, this study revealed a significant association between drug shortage and immunosuppressant’s adherence. In our study, side effects was significantly associated with immunosuppressive medications adherence (P = 0.022); this can be attributed to the fact that only 36.5% of the participants stated that their doctors counseled them about the importance of medications compliance, and this may be contributed to the higher percentage of nonadherent patients which was found in this study.

  Therefore, despite focusing on developing smart healthcare technologies, scholars also need to include domestic and international stakeholders from multi-disciplines such as legal, IT, medical, phar- maceutical, nursing and business to promote a highly reliable healthcare operational Model. However, there are some potential barriers to adopting healthcare 5.0 across healthcare industries, such as heterogeneity of the clinical data, irregularity, and interactiveness during the formu- lation of clinical information, limited computational capabilities, inadequate utilization of energy, lack of validity among sensor’s data, and lack of robustness among intelligent models.

  Evaluation of Fine-needle Aspiration Cytology (FNAC) Sensitivity Compared to PCR for Diagnosing Tuberculosis Lymphadenitis

summary:
  The correlation between cytological findings and PCR results are set out in Table 1, showing a Chi-square with p-value > 0.05 which was considered statistically insignificant (<0.05 was considered significant). PCR amplification of MTB gene The amplification was carried out using 10× PCR buffer (10 mMtris-Hcl, Ph 8.3, 50 mM KCL, 1.5 mMMgcl2); 2.5mM of each dNTPs, DNA template and i-TaqTMDNA Polymerase (5U/μl) in a final volume 20 μL. Reactions were performed in a thermal cycler TC-412 with the following thermal profile: primary denaturing at 94ºC for 5 min, denaturing at 94ºC for 30 sec, annealing temperature at 62ºC for 30 sec, extension at 72ºC for 1 min, and a final extension at 72ºC for 30 sec for 40 cycles for the outer PCR.

The decrease in the level of heterogeneity (I2) was recorded as 21% in the three studies, Ali et al., 2008, Bliss et al., 1996, and Elamin et al., 2017, and the hypothesis of homogeneity of the studies with a P value = 0.28 was accepted. Additionally, studies of Ali et al., 2008 and Farman et al., 2020 were removed to reverse the heterogeneity caused with their inclusion on the meta-analysis of urea (I2 = 97%, P value = 0.05) reaching homogeneity (I2 = 55%, P value = 0.14).

They restated that the manifestations of advanced shock would be unequivocal, however, milder degrees of shock might be challenging to distinguish from severe dehydration, concluding that “when there was uncertainty, the safe approach would be to treat as though shock was present.”

  Errors and Near-miss Errors Encountered by Nursing Students in Clinical Settings in Governmental Universities, Khartoum State (2018)

summary:
  Concerning nursing, the common reply to student error has been some type of punishment, vary from a verbal warning to abrupt release or dismiss. Also, several faculty members accept that individual self-vigilance is what matters most and that if an error or a near-miss occurs, the student is at a mistake; if the fact of student errors becomes open knowledge, clinical organization may be unwilling to have students in their facilities [5]. Education in nursing schools is expected to be up-to-date and of high quality, which should be done by ensuring that the new novice nurses are able to offer safe patient care in a variety of clinical settings[6].

summary:
  All parameters were compared using the Pearson’s correlation test; the results showed that ABG O2 saturations were closer to the SPO than the PPO but the differences were not statistically significant as the Pearson’s correlation values for all parameters were >0.8. We also compared the parameters by Bland Altman Plot and all observations were outside 95% CI (confidence interval), which means that there was a good agreement between O2 saturations by all three methods, that is, ABG, SPO, and PPO; however, ABG O2 saturations were closer to SPO than PPO but this difference was not statistically significant.
