The current paper is a critical cognitive corpus-based analysis of Aljazeera Arabic news reports that have utilized the Qur’anic scripture in an implicit way to report on political events that took place in Egypt in 2011. While it is well-known in academic research that intertextuality can be determined by metaphors in media discourse (Semino, 2008; Otaif, 2015), the current paper found that intertextuality can also constitute a main discourse metaphor that serves as an effective discursive tool ...

A highly ultrasensitive sensor that relied on Cr/ZnO-NPs was developed to detect etilefrine hydrochloride (ETF) in different matrices via a particular green voltammetric technique. The X-ray diffraction pattern showed the nanomaterials of the polycrystalline hexagonal structure. The energy-dispersive X-ray spectrum approved the presence of Cr3+ inside the host zinc oxide framework. The morphological and topological characteristics were visualized using transmission electron microscopy and atomic ...

Abstract: Positive vitreous pressure (PVP) is common during open anterior segment surgery and penetrating keratoplasty (PKP) has a reported incidence rate of 40– 50%. Despite adequate perioperative preventive precautions, positive pressure occurs during surgery and optimum management of PVP is required to avoid serious complications. Many pharmacological and mechanical approaches can be employed either preoperatively or intraoperatively to decrease vitreous pressure. Surgical techniques such as graft- ...

Laboratory testing is one of the major and important component of medical diagnosis. However, unrationalised laboratory test ordering may lead to misdiagnosis of diseases which would delay treatment of the patients. It would also lead to wasting the laboratory resources that adversely impact the hospital budget. The aim of this project was to rationalise laboratory tests ordering and ensure effective utilisation of resources at Armed Forces Hospital Jizan (AFHJ). This study included two major steps: ( ...

Abstract Background Protein intake is recommended in critically ill patients to mitigate the negative effects of critical illness-induced catabolism and muscle wasting. However, the optimal dose of enteral protein remains unknown. We hypothesize that supplemental enteral protein (1.2 g/kg/day) added to standard enteral nutrition formula to achieve high amount of enteral protein (range 2–2.4 g/kg/day) given from ICU day 5 until ICU discharge or ICU day 90 as compared to no supplemental enteral protein ...
