Abstract	Purpose: This study aims to investigate the mediating effect of transformational leadership (TL) and work engagement (WE) on health-care clinic nurses' performance and the crucial role of these variables in the work environment (WEV). Design/methodology/approach: Data were collected from 353 nurses working across various health-care clinics in the United Arab Emirates. This study used descriptive correlational statistics from the Statistical Package for the Social Sciences, the Pearson correlation coefficient, confirmatory factor analysis for model validity, Cronbach's alpha for reliability and path analysis to determine the results. Findings: The relationship between TL and job performance among nurses in health-care clinics was strongly influenced by WE. In addition, a moderate WEV increased the positive influence of TL on job accomplishment. Furthermore, there were no statistically significant differences between the participants' demographics characteristics and the main variables of the study. Practical implications: Health-care management can support and enhance nurses' job performance through TL, create a more structured WEV and support WE. Originality/value: This study involves a specific investigation into WE as a mediator, WEV as a moderator and the effect of TL on nurses' job performance.

Abstract	Rough drawings provide artists with a simple and efficient way to express shapes and ideas. Artists frequently use sketches to highlight their envisioned curves, using several groups' raw strokes. These rough sketches need enhancement to remove some subtle impurities and completely simplify curves over the sketched images. This research paper proposes using a fully convolutional network (FCNN) model to simplify rough raster drawings using deep learning. As input, the FCNN takes a sketch image of any size and automatically generates a high-quality simplified sketch image as output. Our model intuitively addresses the shortcomings in the rough sketch image, such as noises and unwanted background, as well as the low resolution of the rough sketch image. The FCNN model is trained by three raster image datasets, which are publicly available online. This paper demonstrates the efficiency and effectiveness of using deep learning in cleaning and improving the roughly drawn image in an automatic way. For evaluating the results, the mean squared error (MSE) metric was used. From experimental results, it was observed that an enhanced FCNN model reported better accuracy, reducing the prediction error by 0.08 percent for simplifying the rough sketch compared to the existing methods.

Abstract	Globally, there is a severe problem with antibiotic resistance in animals and humans. It may result in diseases that are extremely challenging to treat. In certain situations, conventional antibiotics used to treat an illness may no longer be effective in poultry and an alternative treatment is used. Therefore, using probiotics instead of antibiotic therapy to treat specific health issues in both humans and animals can achieve the desired result, such as preventing infectious zoonotic diseases and enhancing general health. Probiotics are friendly live microorganisms like normal flora, when consumed in a sufficient dose which produces positive effects on the host. This review aimed to prove that using probiotics in poultry instead of antibiotics can fight the spread of pathogenic bacteria such as Salmonella and Campylobacter to humans by ingestion of undercooked poultry meat infected with these bacteria and also increase antibiotic resistance to humans. Finally, concluded that probiotics play a potential role in the spread of antibiotic-resistance genes in our natural environments, we believe it is crucial to implement proper regulation on their use in both livestock and human applications globally.

Abstract	Purpose: Cardiovascular disease can be detected in individuals with prediabetes. The purpose of this study was to determine whether soluble suppression of tumorigenicity 2 (sST2), which is elevated in cardiovascular disease and/or type 2 diabetes, is correlated with glycated haemoglobin in individuals with glycemia in the normal/prediabetes range. Patients and methods: The anthropometric, biochemical and metabolic parameters were measured in 30 adults, and the plasma levels of sST2 were quantified. Results: sST2 was directly correlated with glycated hemoglobin in individuals with glycemia in the normal/prediabetes range. Participants who were at the higher end of glycated hemoglobin (5.8-6.4%) had significantly higher sST2 compared to those at the lower end (≤5.5%). Moreover, sST2 was directly correlated with homeostatic model assessment of insulin resistance (HOMA-IR), alkaline phosphatase, and waist circumference. However, the correlation between sST2 and HOMA-IR or waist circumference was lost after adjusting for age, gender or body mass index. Conclusion: Circulating sST2 may be used to establish a cut-off value for cardiometabolic risk/disease in individuals with glycemia in the normal/prediabetes range.

Abstract	Epilepsy is a chronic brain disease with a global prevalence of 70 million people. According to the World Health Organization, roughly 5 million new cases are diagnosed every year. Anti-seizure drugs are the treatment of choice. However, in roughly one third of the patients, these drugs fail to produce the desired effect. As a result, finding novel treatments for epilepsy becomes inevitable. Recently, angiotensin receptor blockers have been proposed as a treatment to reduce the over-excitation of neurons in epilepsy. For this purpose, we conducted a review using Medline/PubMed and Google Scholar using the relevant search terms and extracted the relevant data in a table. Our review suggests that this novel approach has a very high potential to treat epilepsy, especially in those patients who fail to respond to conventional treatment options. However, more extensive and human-based trials should be conducted to reach a decisive conclusion. Nevertheless, the use of ARBs in patients with epilepsy should be carefully monitored keeping the adverse effects in mind.

Abstract	Background: The COVID-19 pandemic and the consequently adopted worldwide control measures have resulted in global changes in the epidemiology and severity of other respiratory viruses. We compared the number and severity of viral acute lower respiratory tract infection (ALRTI) hospitalizations and determined changes in causative respiratory pathogens before, during, and after the pandemic among young children in Qatar. Methods: In this single-center retrospective study, we reviewed data of children ≤ 36 months old who were admitted to Sidra Medicine in Qatar with a viral ALRTI during winter seasons (September-April) between 2019 and 2023. The study period was divided into three distinct seasons based on the pandemic-imposed restrictions as follows: (1) the period between September 2019 and April 2020 was considered the pre-COVID-19 pandemic season; (2) the periods between September 2020 and April 2021, and the period between January and April 2022 were considered the COVID-19 pandemic seasons; and (3) the periods between September 2022 and April 2023 was considered the post-COVID-19 pandemic season. Results: During the COVID-19 season, 77 patients were admitted, compared with 153 patients during the pre-COVID-19 season and 230 patients during the post-COVID-19 season. RSV was the dominant virus during the pre-COVID-19 season, with a detection rate of 50.9%. RSV infection rate dropped significantly during the COVID-19 season to 10.4% and then increased again during the post-COVID-19 season to 29.1% (P < 0.001). Rhinovirus was the dominant virus during the COVID-19 (39.1%) and post-COVID-19 seasons (61%) compared to the pre-COVID-19 season (31.4%) (P < 0.001). The average length of hospital stay was significantly longer in the post-COVID-19 season than in the pre-COVID-19 and COVID-19 seasons (P < 0.001). No significant differences in the pediatric intensive care unit (PICU) admission rate (P = 0.22), PICU length of stay (p = 0.479), or respiratory support requirements were detected between the three seasons. Conclusion: Our study showed reduced viral ALRTI hospitalizations in Qatar during the COVID-19 pandemic with reduced RSV detection. An increase in viral ALRTI hospitalizations accompanied by a resurgence of RSV circulation following the relaxation of COVID-19 restrictions was observed without changes in disease severity.

Abstract	Purpose: This study examines the knowledge, attitudes, and practice of psychiatric nurses towards the use of physical restraint in Saudi Arabia. Design and methods: Descriptive explanatory cross-sectional design, 101 participants were invited to complete a set of questionnaires to assess the knowledge, attitude, and practice towards the use of physical restraint. Findings: Participants had a moderate knowledge and attitude as well as practice in using physical restraint. Less than half reported that they recognized alternative approaches to physical restraint and most of them did not understand the reasons for the restraint. Practice implications: This study highlights some important misunderstandings of nurses about using physical restraint. The findings serve as a supporting reason for recognizing the importance of educating nurses about its use.
