    Abstract Background: Semaglutide, liraglutide and tirzepatide are glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonists that are effective for weight reduction. Recent reports of patients experiencing suicidal thoughts and other psychiatric adverse events while using GLP-1 agonists have raised concerns about the potential risk of self-harm and led the European Medicines Agency to investigate these medications.
    Aim: To identify and analyse the psychiatric adverse events associated with semaglutide, liraglutide and tirzepatide.
    Method: All individual case safety reports for semaglutide, liraglutide, and tirzepatide reported to the EudraVigilance database from 01/01/2021 to 30/05/2023 were analysed. Descriptive statistics were used to explore study population characteristics.
    Results: During the study period, 31,444 adverse event reports were identified: semaglutide (n = 13,956; 44.4%), liraglutide (n = 16,748; 53.2%), and tirzepatide (n = 740; 2.3%). There were 372 reports with psychiatric adverse event reports (n = 372; 1.18%) with a total of 481 adverse events. Women accounted for 65% (n = 242) of these reports. Depression was the most commonly reported adverse event (n = 187; 50.3%), followed by anxiety (n = 144; 38.7%) and suicidal ideation (n = 73; 19.6%). Nine deaths (8 with liraglutide and 1 with semaglutide) and 11 life-threatening outcomes (4 associated with liraglutide and 7 with semaglutide) were reported. The fatal outcomes occurred primarily among men (8 out of 9) resulting from completed suicidal attempts and depression.
    Conclusion: Psychiatric adverse events comprised only 1.2% of the total reports for semaglutide, liraglutide, and tirzepatide. However, the severity and fatal outcomes of some of these reports warrant further investigation.

    Abstract Background: Imatinib, a potent inhibitor of targeted protein tyrosine kinases, treats chronic myeloid leukaemia (CML). Data on imatinib-associated changes in hepatic and thyroid functions are limited and conflicting.
    Aim: To report the prevalence of hepatic and thyroid toxicity associated with the use of imatinib in CML patients.
    Method: Articles for the systematic review were selected from electronic databases (PubMed, CINALH, Web of Science). Readily accessible peer-reviewed full articles in English published 1st January 2000 to 18th July 2023 were included. The search terms included combinations of: imatinib, CML, liver toxicity, hepatic toxicity, thyroid toxicity. Screening of titles, abstracts, full text articles was conducted independently by two reviewers. Inclusions and exclusions were recorded following PRISMA guidelines. Detailed reasons for exclusion were recorded. Included articles were critically appraised.
    Results: Ten thousand one hundred and twenty-three CML patients were reported in the 82 included studies corresponding to 21 case reports, 2 case series, 39 clinical trials and 20 observational studies were selected. Excluding case studies/reports, 1268 (12.6%; n = 1268/10046) hepatotoxicity adverse events were reported, of which 64.7% were rated as mild grade I & II adverse events, 363 (28.6%) as severe, grade III and IV adverse events; some led to treatment discontinuation, liver transplantation and fatal consequences. Twenty (35.1%) studies reported discontinuation of imatinib treatment due to the severity of hepatic toxicity. Fourteen (8.4%, n = 14/167) thyroid dysfunction adverse events were reported.
    Conclusion: High frequency of mild and severe hepatotoxicity, associated with imatinib in CML patients, was reported in the published literature. Low numbers of mild and manageable thyroid toxicity events were reported.

    Abstract Introduction: The introduction of electronic prescription services has been a significant development in healthcare systems worldwide. In Saudi Arabia, the Wasfaty electronic prescription service was recently introduced, aiming to streamline prescription transfer and medicine collection.
    Aim: This study assesses the implementation of Wasfaty by investigating prescription transfer, patient satisfaction, and medicine availability among beneficiaries at the University of Jeddah.
    Methods: A cross-sectional online questionnaire was distributed to students and staff at the University of Jeddah who had received e-prescriptions from the University Medical Centre (n = 2067) in July-December 2022. The questionnaire consisted of three sections: demographics, patient perceptions and satisfaction with the Wasfaty service, and the availability of prescribed medicines. A total of 217 completed questionnaires were received and analyzed.
    Results: Among the respondents, a majority were female (n = 125, 57.6%). A significant proportion of participants expressed satisfaction with the initial registration process of the Wasfaty service (n = 183, 84.1%). However, a noteworthy finding was that nearly one-third of the participants reported difficulties in locating their prescribed medicines (n = 64, 29.7%). Consequently, a majority of these individuals had to seek alternative pharmacies to obtain their prescribed treatment (n = 138, 63.9%). Of concern were reports of limited access to specific pharmaceuticals, such as anti-hypertensives and antidiabetic medications, which elicited dissatisfaction among respondents.
    Conclusion: This study sheds light on the challenges associated with the implementation of the Wasfaty electronic prescription service in Saudi Arabia. While initial registration satisfaction is notable, the study highlights issues concerning medicine availability and access to essential pharmaceuticals. Addressing these challenges requires the attention of service providers, and further investigation on a national scale is warranted to better understand and address these issues effectively.

    Abstract Human papillomavirus (HPV) is a highly contagious virus that is linked to cervical cancer and is a major public health issue. Saudi Arabia national efforts aimed to have females aged 9-25 years to receive the available vaccine.
    Objectives: This study aims to explore parental knowledge, views, and perceptions around HPV in Saudi Arabia.
    Methods: A cross-sectional online questionnaire was used through direct interview to collect information from a group of parents attending King Abdul-Aziz University Hospital in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia. The questionnaire comprised items including demographics, knowledge, views, and perceptions of HPV infection and vaccination.
    Results: Of the 500 parents who participated in this study, only 54 (11%) had heard about HPV being associated with cervical cancer. The majority of the participants reported being from the middle social class (n = 472, 94.4%). The vast majority (n = 483, 96.8%) had never heard of the HPV vaccine and (n = 470, 94%) were unwilling to vaccinate their daughters. The primary reported reason behind refusing the vaccine was the lack of information on the importance of HPV vaccination (n = 426, 85.2%). The majority (n = 419, 83.8%) believed that there was insufficient information regarding vaccine safety and efficacy. Participants suggested ways to increase vaccination acceptance like social media awareness (n = 369, 73.8%), educational seminars in schools (n = 254, 50.8%), and a governmental platform (n = 218, 43.6%) providing information on HPV infection and promoting vaccination.
    Conclusion: Parents in the present study demonstrated a substantial lack of knowledge about HPV infection and vaccination, which may necessitate the establishment of national awareness campaigns.

    Abstract The development of safe, effective, affordable vaccines against COVID-19 remains the cornerstone to mitigating this pandemic. Early in December 2020, multiple research groups had designed potential vaccines. From 11 March 2021, several European countries temporarily suspended the use of the Oxford-AstraZeneca vaccine amid reports of blood clot events and the death of a vaccinated person, despite the European Medicines Agency (EMA) and the World Health Organization's assurance that there was no indication that vaccination was linked. This study aimed to identify and analyse the thrombotic adverse reactions associated with the Oxford-AstraZeneca vaccine. This was a retrospective descriptive study using spontaneous reports submitted to the EudraVigilance database in the period from 17 February to 12 March 2021. There were 54,571 adverse reaction reports, of which 28 were associated with thrombotic adverse reactions. Three fatalities were related to pulmonary embolism; one fatality to thrombosis. With 17 million people having had the AstraZeneca vaccine, these are extremely rare events The EMA's Pharmacovigilance Risk Assessment Committee (18 March 2021) concluded that the vaccine was safe, effective and the benefits outweighed the risks. Conducting further analyses based on more detailed thrombotic adverse event reports, including patients' characteristics and comorbidities, may enable assessment of the causality with higher specificity.

    Abstract This study aimed to assess the perceptions of staff working at the University of Jeddah (UJ) Medical Center on the possibility of finding new financing methods for the administration and privatization of the primary and specialized medical care services it provides. A questionnaire link was sent online targeting all staff at the UJ Medical Center (n = 141). The questionnaire comprised 17 items under the following sections: demographic information, staff perceptions about the current status of the services provided by the UJ Medical Center and the possibility of finding new financing methods and additional sources of revenue for the administration. Of the 101 questionnaires returned, the majority were filled by males (n = 71; 70.3%). One-third of the participants (n = 39; 38.6%) have between 5 and 9 years of working experience in Medical Administration, and most of them (n = 42; 41.6%) reported that they have a background in the concept of revenue development/privatization/self-resources/paid treatment. Most were satisfied with the current status of the services provided (average rating = 3.39/5). However, most participants (n = 72; 71.3%) reported that the UJ Medical Center is not ready for the Revenue Development Project of privatization. The survey respondents demonstrated satisfaction with the medical services provided by the UJ Medical Center and the potential application of the Revenue Development Project. However, streamlining the privatization process according to the governmental structures is crucial for it to be implemented properly at the UJ Medical Center.

    Abstract Vaccination against COVID-19 is the cornerstone of controlling and mitigating the ongoing pandemic. Thrombotic adverse events linked to Moderna, Pfizer and the Oxford-AstraZeneca vaccine have been documented and described as extremely rare. While the Oxford-AstraZeneca vaccine has received much of the attention, the other vaccines should not go unchallenged. This study aimed to determine the frequency of reported thrombotic adverse events and clinical outcomes for these three COVID-19 vaccines, namely, Moderna, Pfizer and Oxford-AstraZeneca. A retrospective descriptive analysis was conducted of spontaneous reports for Moderna, Pfizer and Oxford-AstraZeneca COVID-19 vaccines submitted to the EudraVigilance database in the period from 17 February to 14 June 2021. There were 729,496 adverse events for the three vaccines, of which 3420 were thrombotic, mainly Oxford-AstraZeneca (n = 1988; 58.1%) followed by Pfizer (n = 1096; 32.0%) and Moderna (n = 336; 9.8%). As serious adverse events, there were 705 reports of pulmonary embolism for the three vaccines, of which 130 reports (18.4%) were for Moderna, 226 reports (32.1%) for Pfizer and 349 (49.5%) for Oxford-AstraZeneca vaccines. The occurrence of pulmonary embolism is significantly associated with a fatal outcome (

    Abstract Tamsulosin is an antagonist of a subtype-specific alpha-1A- and alpha-1D-adrenoceptor (AR) that is expressed in the prostate gland, urethra, and bladder. Several reports have shown a possible relationship between ophthalmologic adverse effects and the use of alpha-1-receptor medicines, including tamsulosin. This descriptive review evaluates the intraoperative floppy iris syndrome (IFIS) associated with tamsulosin. A search of the Medline and PubMed databases was conducted to identify control trials, case reports, and observational examinations published in English. The publication dates were restricted (January 1, 2000, to January 1, 2020). Keywords (tamsulosin, alpha-blocker, ocular, eye, adverse reaction, and IFIS) were used in the searches. The searches identified 66 studies including
