INTRODUCTION: Obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA) is a sleep-related breathing disorder with recurrent episodes of apnoea or hypopnoea occurring during sleep. It is associated with an increased risk of cardiovascular disease. However, there is no applicable study that assesses the risk for OSA at the primary care level. This study aims to assess the pre

According to the latest update from WHO (2016), an estimated 422 million people globally were living with diabetes in 2014, compared to 108 million in 1980. • The global prevalence of diabetes also showed double increment since 1980 from 4.7% to 8.5% in the adult population.12-Mar-20 1Diabetic Foot Problem: The Overview And Management Strategies

Research is a careful, systematic, patient study and investigation in some field of knowledge, undertaken to establish facts or principles.14-Dec-20 1 Introduction to Research PROF DR MOHD AZNAN MD ARIS DEPARTMENT OF FAMILY MEDICINE INTERNATIONAL ISLAMIC UNIVERSITY MALAYSIA What is Research?

Malaysia has been recognized as one of the destinations for Muslim travellers, possessing factors such as multicultural identities, a unique culture and heritage based on Islamic principles. In Kuala Lumpur, most iconic Islamic attractions, the National Mosque and Federal Mosque are must- visit locations in the city. These mosques are highly promot

Utilizing high-performance cellulose nanopapers as 2D-reinforcement for polymers allows for realizing high-loading-fraction (80 vol-%), high-performance (strength > 150 MPa, modulus > 10 GPa) laminated nanopaper reinforced epoxy composites. Such cellulose nanopapers are inherently dense, which renders them difficult to be impregnated with t

Background: The primary cause of cancer is gene mutation which allows the growth of abnormal and damaged cells. Nutrition is one of the key factors that either increases or decreases the risk of cancer. Mannose has been found in many fruits such as oranges, apples and berries. Mannose has been linked to increase the risk factors or potential therap

Background: Fucose is a deoxyhexose sugar. While the biological roles of L-fucose remain unclear, the sugar is known to accelerate the malignant potential of cancer cells. Therefore, this study aimed to evaluate the viability pattern of human cancer and normal cell lines treated with fucose. Methods: The human gingival fibroblast (HGF-1), colorecta

Background: Cancer knowledge, attitude, and practice (KAP) levels of communities are essential to be assessed to enhance cancer educational programs. This study aimed to determine the KAP level of the Kuantan community on the effects of monosaccharides on cancer. The association between the sociodemographic data and KAP level of the community has a

Most of the studies' findings explored that the prevalence of stress is increasing among university students. Student retention, student progression and graduate on time (GOT) are becoming critical issues in all universities. There are a significant number of studies that have examined the stress level of students using the Perceived Stress Sca

Background: Glucose is associated with weight gain, which increases the risk of cancer. There is insufficient information on the effects of high glucose concentrations on cell lines. This study evaluated the viability patterns of human cancer and normal cell lines treated with glucose. Methods: Human gingival fibroblast (hGF), colorectal adenocarci
