Abstract: The advent of artificial intelligence (AI) in the realm of personalized physiotherapy marks a pivotal shift, especially concerning the management of rare musculoskeletal disorders. Conventional physiotherapeutic strategies frequently fall short in addressing the intricate and individualized requirements of patients with uncommon clinical presentations, thereby underscoring the necessity for advanced, adaptable methodologies. Leveraging AI-driven data analytics and machine learning algorithms, clinicians can now devise highly individualized rehabilitation protocols that account for each patient's unique clinical and genetic characteristics, thus refining both diagnostic accuracy and therapeutic effectiveness. Recent literature underscores the capacity of AI-enhanced interventions, including interactive digital platforms and tailored exergaming, to bolster patient participation and adherence by targeting specific functional impairments and fostering greater motivation. Additionally, AI's integration within precision medicine frameworks accelerates the identification and optimization of therapeutic pathways, further expediting the development of patient-specific treatments. The purpose of this review is to synthesize current evidence regarding the implementation of AI in personalized physiotherapy for rare musculoskeletal disorders, evaluating its impact on clinical outcomes and outlining future directions for research and practice. Collectively, these advancements signify a transformative era in individualized care, with AI poised to reshape both therapeutic paradigms and the broader landscape of rare disease management.

Abstract: Nowadays, the way that health organizations operate has changed dramatically because of technology. The recent rapid adoption of technology in healthcare has increased the need for healthcare providers and patients to use computer technology.  So, the aim of the study is to assess healthcare providers’ perception and attitude toward using artificial intelligence technology in healthcare settings at Ministry of health hospitals in Jeddah. Design: The quantitative, descriptive, cross-sectional design was implemented. The non-probability Convenience sampling technique was used to recruit the studied sample from the healthcare providers working in the two general hospitals. The sample size was equal to 366. Two electronic self-administered questionnaires were utilized to collect data about the perception of artificial intelligence and attitudes questionnaires of healthcare providers. Results: The findings demonstrated that most participants perceived AI as a valuable tool for improving healthcare efficiency, decision-making accuracy, and patient safety. High agreement was reported for AI’s role in accelerating care processes, enhancing workflow efficiency, and supporting clinical judgment. Although perceptions were generally positive, most nurses demonstrated neutral attitudes toward AI applications. Conclusion: This finding concluded that the positive correlation between perception and attitude suggests that enhancing nurses’ knowledge and practical engagement with AI may gradually shift attitudes from neutrality toward informed acceptance. This finding recommended that nurse leaders and educators should play a central role in shaping AI implementation strategies to ensure alignment with patient safety, ethical practice, and professional autonomy. Establishing clear policies and involving nurses in AI design and evaluation may further enhance trust and adoption.

Abstract: While anthropometric indicators like stunting and wasting provide visible evidence of malnutrition, they often fail to capture the underlying physiological dysregulation caused by micronutrient deficiencies, or "hidden hunger." This study aimed to comprehensively assess the biochemical nutritional status, including protein-energy markers, micronutrient deficiencies, inflammation, and patterns of multiple concurrent deficiencies among children under five years in Sokoto State, Nigeria. A community-based cross-sectional study was conducted among 150 mother-child pairs attending Primary Health Centres in Sokoto State. Venous blood samples were collected and analyzed for a panel of biomarkers: Prealbumin, C-Reactive Protein (CRP), Serum Retinol (Vitamin A), Hemoglobin, Serum Albumin, and Serum Zinc. Descriptive statistics were used to summarize biomarker levels, and prevalence of deficiency was determined using standard clinical cut-offs (WHO, IZiNCG). The burden of multiple concurrent deficiencies was assessed by counting the number of deficiencies present in each child. The biochemical profile revealed a profound and multifaceted nutritional crisis. Protein-energy malnutrition was confirmed by critically low mean Prealbumin (6.8 ± 2.1 mg/dL) and Serum Albumin (3.1 ± 0.5 g/dL) levels, with 94.6% and 64.0% of children deficient, respectively. A rampant burden of "hidden hunger" was evidenced by a 91.3% prevalence of Vitamin A deficiency (28.0% severe) and a 73.3% prevalence of Zinc deficiency (34.7% severe). Furthermore, 78.0% of children had elevated C-Reactive Protein (CRP >3 mg/L), indicating widespread systemic inflammation, while 78.7% were anemic (Hemoglobin <11 g/dL), including 8.0% with severe anemia. Critically, 98.7% of children suffered from at least one deficiency, and 78.7% suffered from three or more concurrent deficiencies. Only 1.3% of children were deficient in none of the biomarkers assessed. The findings reveal a syndemic of protein-energy malnutrition, critical micronutrient deficiencies, and chronic inflammation that underpins the high rates of anthropometric failure in this population. The near-universal prevalence of multiple concurrent deficiencies constitutes a state of comprehensive metabolic failure, systematically compromising immune function, growth, and cognitive development. Public health strategies must urgently move beyond single-nutrient interventions to integrated, multi-micronutrient and multi-sectoral approaches that address dietary diversity, infection control, and the structural determinants of poverty.

Abstract: A growing public health concern among teenagers is the double burden of malnutrition, which is defined by the coexistence of underweight and overweight/obesity. This condition may be significantly shaped by lifestyle and psychosocial factors. The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationships between the double burden of malnutrition among Jordanian adolescent girls and psychological well-being, quality of life, and lifestyle factors. In Ain Al-Basha, Jordan, 450 girls between the ages of 15 and 17 participated in a cross-sectional study. Multistage stratified sampling was used to choose participants from five secondary schools. The World Health Organization's growth standards were used to categorize body mass index (BMI). Using validated questionnaires, dietary practices, physical activity, psychological state, and quality of life were evaluated. To find independent predictors of BMI categories, multinomial logistic regression analysis was used. Unhealthy eating habits, low physical activity, lower psychological well-being, and a lower quality of life were all substantially linked to an increased risk of malnutrition in both directions.

ABSTRACT: Background: Obesity and cardiometabolic risk, especially in women, are closely associated with metabolic syndrome (MetS), also referred to as insulin resistance syndrome. This study looked at the relationships among adult females' MetS, obesity patterns, and dietary and lifestyle factors.

Methods: Adult females (n = 310) who were recruited from Al-Sareeh Medical Consulting Center participated in a cross-sectional study. Internationally recognized standards were used to define MetS. Measurements were made of anthropometric indicators, such as waist circumference (WC), waist-to-height ratio (WHtR), body mass index (BMI), and body fat percentage. Data were gathered on dietary intake (food frequency questionnaires), age, and physical activity (validated questionnaires). 

Results: The prevalence of MetS rose considerably with age, peaking in women between the ages of 40 and 50. Women who were overweight or obese and did not engage in physical activity had a significantly higher prevalence of MetS (p < 0.05). Women who had MetS had higher BMI, body fat percentage, WC, and WHtR, consumed more total energy and fat, and consumed less dietary fiber. They also had higher rates of hyperglycemia, dyslipidemia, and hypertension.

Conclusions: The main causes of MetS in adult females are central obesity, poor diet, physical inactivity, and aging. Public health initiatives that encourage the reduction of abdominal fat, physical activity, and high-fiber diets are crucial, particularly for middle-aged women.

Key words: central obesity; dietary patterns; insulin resistance; physical activity; public health; women.

Abstract: Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) is resistant to beta-lactam antibiotics (and other drug classes) through altered penicillin-binding proteins that maintain cell wall synthesis despite antimicrobial pressure. MRSA can be hospital-associated (HA-MRSA) or community-associated (CA-MRSA). The major risk factors for MRSA infection in Africa include hospitalization, prior antibiotic use, diabetes, invasive procedures, intravenous drug use, and HIV infection. The prevalence of CA-MRSA is widely variable and stands at about 26.7% in the US, predominantly among younger patients with skin infections. In Kenya, the prevalence is 1.8% according to limited data. The Infectious Diseases Society of America (IDSA) recommends using clindamycin, trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole, tetracycline, and linezolid for skin and soft tissue infections caused by CA-MRSA and discourages the use of rifampicin in this context. However, we report on the case of a young Kenyan woman in a rural setting whom we successfully treated for CA-MRSA impetigo with oral rifampicin monotherapy after ruling out active tuberculosis infection prior to treatment. She had failed treatment with all the other IDSA-recommended antibiotics.

Abstract: Background: Postpartum hemorrhage (PPH) remains a leading cause of maternal mortality in low-resource settings, where the effectiveness of emergency response depends not only on individual provider skills but also on the strength of supportive systems. While Skilled Birth Attendant (SBA) training improves theoretical knowledge, sustained clinical readiness requires continuous supervision, guidance, and reinforcement. Nurse mentoring has emerged as a health-system strengthening strategy to enhance clinical performance, teamwork, and adherence to PPH management protocols at facility level.

Objectives: To examine the role of nurse mentoring as a capacity-building approach for improving preparedness and system responsiveness to PPH emergencies among SBA-trained nurses in public healthcare facilities of Kanpur Division, Uttar Pradesh.

Methods: A descriptive evaluation was conducted among 62 SBA-trained staff nurses posted at PHC, CHC, CHC-FRU, and District Women Hospital facilities. Data were collected using a structured demographic form, knowledge questionnaire, practice checklist, and Objective Structured Clinical Examination (OSCE). Descriptive statistics were used. The analysis emphasised how mentoring exposure, frequency, and facility context influenced competency and emergency readiness rather than only individual scores.

Results: Although mean knowledge (76.6%), practice (72.6%), and skill scores (63.1%) indicated moderate overall competency (70.8%), mentoring exposure contributed significantly to better adherence to PPH protocols, timely uterotonic use, improved team coordination, and more systematic emergency response practices. Facilities reporting regular mentoring visits demonstrated higher consistency in OSCE performance and fewer procedural gaps. Demographic and facility-level patterns further highlighted mentoring as an enabling factor for competency retention and institutional readiness.

Conclusion: Nurse mentoring strengthens PPH management not merely by improving individual competencies but by enhancing broader health-system functions such as supervision, teamwork, clinical decision-making, and continuity of quality care. Integrating structured mentoring into routine maternal health programs can improve institutional preparedness and support the sustainability of training outcomes in low-resource settings.

Abstract: The integration of health promotion and community engagement has gained increasing recognition for its potential to enhance public health outcomes. Community physiotherapy has emerged as a vital approach to reduce morbidity and empower populations by improving access to services and fostering self-management of health conditions. This review synthesizes existing literature on the role of community physiotherapy in promoting health, highlighting its capacity to address non-communicable diseases, enhance physical and psychological well-being, and foster social cohesion. Evidence indicates that tailored physiotherapy programs in community settings can lead to decreased hospital admissions, improved mobility, and increased health literacy, especially among vulnerable groups. Moreover, community physiotherapy facilitates active participation, promoting autonomy and empowerment, which are crucial for sustainable health improvements. The literature also underscores the role of community physiotherapy in bridging gaps between healthcare providers and populations, contributing to more equitable health outcomes. However, significant gaps remain, including the predominance of quantitative studies that overlook subjective experiences and the limited research in rural or underserved communities. Additionally, there is a need for longitudinal studies to assess the long-term impacts and sustainability of these interventions. Future research should adopt mixed-methods approaches and consider contextual factors to optimize program effectiveness across diverse settings. Overall, community physiotherapy offers a promising strategy to reduce morbidity while fostering individual and community empowerment. Policymakers and practitioners are encouraged to integrate these insights into health systems, ensuring that community physiotherapy remains a cornerstone of sustainable public health initiatives aimed at improving population well-being.
