Prevalence and predictors of poor oral health-related quality of life among the Saudi elderly.

Background: Oral health-related quality of life (OHRQoL) among Saudi senior populations has been investigated. Yet, studies were conducted in a confined area or city with smaller sample sizes, using different OHRQoL measures, and none mentioned the rate of poor OHRQoL. Thus, this study aimed to determine the prevalence and predictors of poor OHRQoL in elderly Saudi Arabians, using the Oral Health Impact Profile (OHIP-14).

Acceptance and Readiness of Critical Care Nurses to Use Artificial Intelligence: A Structural Equation Modeling Approach.

Aim: The aims of this study was to evaluate the acceptance and readiness of critical care nurses to use artificial intelligence (AI).

Background: AI is increasingly incorporated into clinical practice, offering the potential to revolutionize healthcare and significantly impact nursing practices.

Introduction: Integration of AI into nursing practice depends on its acceptance and adoption, with the potential to transform health care, improve patients' outcomes, and support decision-making.

Quality of life in Saudi Arabia: a patient-reported outcome measurement information system (PROMIS) - 10 global health study.

Background: Measuring the quality of life of a population provides a baseline for future comparisons and is essential for decision-makers, especially regarding resource allocation. Despite substantial investment in healthcare services in Saudi Arabia, no study has captured the general Saudi population's overall health-related quality of life. This study utilized existing healthcare system data to develop reference values for the Patient-Reported Outcome Measurement Information System - Global Health (PROMIS-GH) survey for the population in Saudi Arabia and to examine associated sociodemographic predictors of health-related quality of life.

Instagram and Aesthetic Dentistry: A Study of Content and Engagement Among Arabic Posts Related to Dental Smile.

Background: Instagram has gained ground over the past few years and is a significant health (mis)information source. Instagram posts significantly contribute to the increased demand for dental cosmetic procedures among patients in Arab countries. However, it is critical to assess the quality of these posts to ensure the dental information's reliability and accuracy.

Potential of Sodium-Glucose Cotransporter-2 Inhibitors in the Management of Heart Failure With Preserved Ejection Fraction: A Narrative Review.

Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction presents a major clinical challenge due to its complex pathophysiology and limitations in its therapeutic options. This comprehensive review explores the comparative effectiveness of sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitors, focusing on their impact on diabetic versus non-diabetic patients, individuals with chronic kidney disease, and the elderly. A comprehensive literature search identified randomized controlled trials, meta-analyses, and clinical studies that evaluated the role of sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitors in managing heart failure with preserved ejection fraction.
