Food allergy knowledge and attitudes among university students in Palestine
Food allergy (FA) is an immune-mediated reaction that can cause anything from minor symptoms such as skin rashes to severe, potentially fatal anaphylaxis. Little is known about FA knowledge and management among Palestinian university students, despite the abundance of studies on the condition in pediatric populations. To the best of the authors’ knowledge, this is one of the first studies to evaluate FA knowledge and attitudes, particularly among…
Parental knowledge and attitudes toward food allergies
Parenting a child with FA, comorbid asthma or eczema, number of discussions held with healthcare professionals, and education and income levels were significantly associated with a higher knowledge score. Educational interventions targeting parents should blend emotional regulation, medical information, and management skills to increase knowledge about FA and alleviate associated stress

As demonstrated by an incredible number of COVID-19-related publications, the research science community responded rapidly. Therefore, this study was intended to assess the growing contribution of the Arab world to global research on COVID-19. METHODS: For the period between December 2019 and March 2021, the s…
A comparative evaluation of medicine package inserts for oral antidiabetic agents in Palestine
Significant differences were being identified, with excellence being assigned to imported PPIs. So, it is worth suggesting some necessary modifications in PPI topography and sequence structure of local diabetic agents. Experts in Palestinian Ministry of Health should implement regulatory guidelines to improve the quality and quantity of information provided by local PPIs. This optimisation could become a step forward toward optimal health practic…
Knowledge, attitude and practices among parents regarding food poisoning
Knowledge, attitude, and practices regarding food poisoning prevention are associated with each other and are affected by a complex interplay between socio-economic variables. The study highlights the need for health education programmes and general awareness campaigns that intend not only to enhance knowledge but also promote parents to practice food safety measures strictly and further strengthen their awareness level
Estimates of global research productivity in using nicotine replacement therapy for tobacco cessation
BACKGROUND: Tobacco use is a major healthcare problem worldwide. Tobacco smoking remains the most important risk factor for both cancer and heart diseases. This study was initiated due to the lack of published data concerning the real progress in research output in the use of nicotine replacement therapy (NRT) for tobacco cessation. This study was aimed to use bibliometric analysis to estimate the NRT literature indexed in Scopus database at glob…
Bibliometric analysis of global migration health research in peer-reviewed literature (2000–2016)
Our heat map of research output shows that despite the ever-growing prominence of human mobility across the globe, and Sustainable Development Goals of leaving no one behind, research output on migrants' health is not consistent with the global migration pattern. A stronger evidence base is needed to enable authorities to make evidence-informed decisions on migration health policy and practice. Research collaboration and networks should be encour…
