Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Purpose: This study evaluated the risk of opioid dose escalation as it relates to sex differences among patients receiving opioids for long-term therapy. Patients and methods: This retrospective cohort study was conducted in tertiary hospital settings in Malaysia using electronic prescription records. Opioid naïve patients, aged ≥ 18 years, who

Multidrug-resistant (MDR) Acinetobacter baumannii has emerged as a very problematic pathogen over the past decades, with a high incidence in nosocomial infections. Discovered in the late 1940s but abandoned in the 1970s, polymyxins (i.e., polymyxin B and colistin) have been revived as the last-line therapy against Gram-negative “superbugs,” inc

Sensors in Electronic Applications
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

In response to any change in the measuring quantity (stimulus), input type transducers or sensors generate a proportional output voltage or signal which basically depends on the sensor type in use. Usually sensors are categorized into two types: active and passive sensors. There are also some other type of sensors such as; digital sensors, deflecti

Capacitive Sensing for non-Contact Means of Measurement
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Capacitive sensors exhibit an electrical property called "capacitance" on the way to carry out the measurements. Capacitance is particularly defined for two conducting objects, across which the potential difference is connected. The plates are separated by an electrical insulating material named as dielectric that helps the parallel plates

Research on non-Steroidal anti-Inflammatory Drugs in Malaysia: a Bibliometric Analysis
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

INTRODUCTION Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) are the most common analgesics used for pain relief. Adverse effects of NSAIDs range from gastrointestinal tract disturbances to increased risk of bleeding, renal injury and myocardial infarction. In Malaysia, the research productivity of NSAIDs is not well explored. OBJECTIVES This study

A Bibliometric Analysis on the Productivity of Opioid Research in Malaysia
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

INTRODUCTION Opioid analgesics have been widely used for the treatment of pain. In the USA, it was reported that increase in opioid prescribing is parallel with the increase of opioid use disorders such as misuse, abuse and opioids overdose related death. Little is known about the opioid situation and its related research in Malaysia. OBJECTIVES Th

Prescribing of non-Steroidal anti-Inflammatory Drugs, Tramadol and Opioids in Children: Patterns of its Utilization
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Background: Analgesic is commonly used in children but little is known about its patterns of utilization. This study explored the patterns of analgesic prescribing in children. Methods: This cross sectional study used prescription databases of tertiary hospital settings in Malaysia from 2010 to 2016. Prescriptions for nine NSAIDs (diclofenac, ketop

Ten Years of Strong Opioid Analgesics Consumption in Malaysia and Other Southeast Asian Countries
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Abstract Background: It was reported that opioid consumption in developing countries was stagnated or decreased but precise data on the consumption are unclear. This study examined the trends and patterns of opioid consumption in Malaysia and other four Southeast Asian countries. Methods: Data of five strong opioids consumption (morphine, oxycodone
