In today’s digital era, health research heavily relies on digital data. This shift calls for teamwork across different fields to tackle the tricky methods and hurdles that come with this data. Typically, health research follows a clear, step-by-step path, while data science takes a more flexible, ex
Living longer is great, but it also brings new challenges. People with HIV are now facing a higher chance of a painful hip condition called femoral head necrosis. This happens when the ball part of the hip bone dies due to lack of blood. It's not just HIV that's to blame, though. Medicines used to t
Orthopedic surgery is constantly evolving, with a significant focus on maximizing health outcomes for the cost. This field uses various economic tools to achieve this goal. However, the way this research is conducted varies greatly depending on the specific area of orthopedics and where it's being d
Scientists were curious to see if two native UAE plants, Arthrocnemum macrostachyum and Tamarix nilotica, could fight cancer. They tried two ways to get chemicals out of the plants: leaving them in a liquid (maceration) and heating them up with microwaves (microwave-assisted extraction or MAE). They
Imagine trying to fix something complex, like a broken bone, without knowing all the pieces. That's how many Black medical professionals feel about the orthopaedic field. It's time to change the conversation and amplify Black voices. For years, the orthopaedic world has been dominated by one perspe
In the mid-1980s, Europe was divided into two worlds: the East, governed by communist regimes like the Czechoslovak Socialist Republic and the Soviet Union, and the West, home to democracies such as Austria. A heavily guarded border, known as the Iron Curtain, separated these two blocs, preventing E
Phytocompounds, found naturally in plants, are stirring up interest as potential weapons against the parasitic disease leishmaniasis. These compounds hold promise due to their ability to fight against parasites without causing harm to human cells. Scientists are diving into research to figure out ho
Suicide is a major health issue worldwide, ranking as the fourth leading cause of death among young people aged 15 to 29. To better understand this complex problem, researchers aimed to identify key risk factors connected with violent and non-violent suicide methods. They conducted a large-scale stu
Flavors and tastes are what make meat so appealing to us. They're the main reasons why we pick one cut over another or choose beef over chicken. This look into the meat industry explores both old and new ways of creating these delicious sensations. Traditional methods like aging and marinating are s
In the world of science, it's not just about the discovery—it's about who profits from it. Journals, the gatekeepers of scientific knowledge, often prioritize their own gains. Authors, who spend countless hours on research, face a harsh reality: they must pay to play. This comes in the form of artic
