Exploring the Challenges in Adopting Occupational Safety and Health (OSH) Management Standards and Critical Success Factors for OSH Management System Implementation in Public Universities: A Qualitative Study

Abstract : This study explores the challenges in adopting Occupational Safety and Health Management Systems (OSHMS) and Critical Success Factors (CSFs) for Management Standards (MS) implementation in public universities in Malaysia. Using a qualitative, grounded theory approach, six public universities were studied—three with OSHMS certification and three without. Purposive sampling and in-depth interviews with nine key informants were conducted. Thematic analysis approach guided by socio-technical theor


Assessing Azithromycin’s Impact on Preterm Infants: A Meta-Analysis for Bronchopulmonary Dysplasia Prevention

Abstract : Bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) remains a major cause of morbidity and mortality in preterm neonates, necessitating the exploration of novel preventive strategies. Azithromycin, with its anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial properties, has shown potential in this context. This study systematically evaluates the effectiveness and safety of azithromycin in preventing BPD in preterm neonates. Following PRISMA guidelines, Medline, Cochrane, and Embase databases were searched for studies assessing az


Dorsal Wrist Ganglion Recurrence: Insights from a Meta-Analysis of Treatment Strategies

Abstract : Dorsal wrist ganglion is the most common soft tissue mass of the wrist and hand, originating from the joint capsule or tendon sheath. While surgical excision is considered the gold standard due to its definitive nature, aspiration combined with corticosteroid injection is an attractive, minimally invasive alternative. However, the efficacy of these treatments, particularly in terms of recurrence, remains debated. This meta-analysis was conducted in accordance with the PRISMA guidelines and inclu


Advancing Surgical Decisions: Meta-Analysis of Intramedullary Fixation vs. Plating for Midshaft Clavicle Fractures

Abstract : Midshaft clavicle fractures are common orthopedic injuries often requiring surgical intervention, with plate fixation (PF) and intramedullary fixation (IMF) being the primary treatment options. PF provides good stability but is associated with complications such as hypertrophic scars, painful scars, implant protrusion, and the need for hardware removal. Intramedullary fixation (IMF) offers a less invasive alternative, though its comparative effectiveness remains debated. This meta-analysis aimed


The confusing tale of celiac disease and irritable bowel syndrome: A review and meta-analysis

Abstract : The symptoms of celiac disease and irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) are similar, and could be confusing; however, a correct diagnosis is highly important because the treatment is different. Literature assessing celiac disease among patients with IBS is scarce. We assessed the prevalence of celiac disease among patients with IBS. We searched PubMed/MEDLINE, Cochrane Library, and Google Scholar during March and April 2024. All articles investigating celiac disease/irritable bowel syndrome overlappin
