Entrepreneurs face massive challenges when attempting to create sustainable businesses in the current era. This juggling act leads to eco-anxiety and climate change anxiety, which mainly affect entrepreneurs by creating concerns and ruining creativity and progress. These issues contribute to individuals' mental health problems (MHP) and severely affect psychological well-being (PWB). With this in mind, the present study investigates the impact of eco-anxiety (EA) and climate change anxiety (CCA) on MHP and PWB amon [...]

This review examines the effectiveness of integrating botulinum toxin type A (BONT-A) with various rehabilitative strategies in treating spastic diplegia in children. The studies analyzed consistently demonstrate significant reductions in spasticity and improvements in gait when BONT-A is combined with interventions such as intensive physical therapy, serial casting, electrical stimulation, physiotherapy, occupational therapy, and robotic-assisted gait training. The findings underscore the importance of personalize [...]

Diabetic neuropathy (DN) is a type of nerve damage caused by long-term hyperglycemia in diabetes mellitus (DM). The gut microbiota alters in DM. Therefore, improvement of the gut flora may affect neuropathic pain and oxidative biomarkers' responsiveness to the probiotic treatment. The present study aimed to assess the effects of probiotic supplementation on neuropathic pain and oxidative stress biomarkers in diabetic rats’ serum. Forty-eight rats (200-250 g) were randomly divided into four groups (n = 12 per group) [...]

Zebrafish (Danio rerio) is a vertebrate with unique characteristics, making it an excellent biomedical research animal model. One research area involves investigating changes in gene expression during neurodegenerative processes, aging-related changes, and behavioral studies in zebrafish. To achieve this, high-quality and quantity RNA must be extracted from zebrafish. This study aims to develop an optimized RNA extraction method from zebrafish larvae brains. After rearing and maintaining the zebrafish in suitable c [...]

University entrepreneurs' psychological wellbeing (PWB) is a gigantic problem that substantially affects their academic performance, health, innovative capabilities, and more comprehensive societal contributions. In this study, we examine mental hindrances, such as stress, anxiety and depression and entrepreneurship-related constructs, such as entrepreneurial purpose (ENSE), entrepreneurial carefulness (ENSS) and entrepreneurial desire (ENRE) that predict PWB among Egyptian university entrepreneurs. In this quantit [...]

Gliomas are the most common brain tumor in adults, with a poor prognosis despite intensive treatments. Complete surgical resection is difficult due to its infiltrative growth, but aggressive surgery improves outcomes. Fluorescence-guided surgery (FGS) is used to distinguish tumor tissue during surgery. 5-Aminolevulinic Acid (5-ALA) is a crucial fluorescent agent in FGS, transforming into a molecule that accumulates in tumor cells. We presented a 34-year-old female with a high-grade glioma in the left parietal lobe [...]

This pilot study (N = 28) aims to develop universal computer-aided empathy training. The experiment tests a research design of manipulating behavior in subjects toward non-affective cues in a bioengineering system. The study implements the Mother-Fetus Neurocognitive Model to involve subjects in subliminal cognitive collaboration with confederates, which enables subjects to associate the meaning of empathy with the picture only seen by confederates. The outcome shows the feasibility of the chosen research design wi [...]

In the present era of digitalization, technology plays a prominent role in relaxation and brain development (BD), specifically for university students. The present study explores the impact of technology use and digital characteristics (DC) in developing students' BD. We applied the quantitative methods; the study collected 328 samples from Egypt's different public sector universities through a questionnaire. Using path analysis through analysis of moment structures (AMOS), the results demonstrate a positive effect [...]
