Noise-induced hearing loss (NIHL) refers to hearing impairment caused by either a sudden traumatic noise event or long-term exposure to elevated sound levels. Such exposure can lead to irreversible damage to the inner ear, resulting in permanent changes to hearing thresholds. Several factors contribute to the risk of developing NIHL, including individual characteristics such as genetic predisposition, age, gender, and lifestyle, as well as environmental factors such as the duration, intensity, a

Liver fibrosis is a significant medical condition characterized by the abnormal accumulation of fibrous tissue in the liver and can lead to cirrhosis. A deeper understanding of the biological processes that drive liver fibrosis is crucial for the development of more effective diagnostic and therapeutic strategies. Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) have emerged as key regulators in the development of liver fibrosis and may serve as promising targets for future therapies. This article examines the in

Visceral leishmaniasis (VL) is a major public health threat due to its high morbidity and mortality rates in untreated cases. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the hematological and biochemical parameters in patients with VL in ElGadarif State, Sudan. Blood samples were collected from 39 VL patients for the analysis of complete blood count (CBC) and clinical chemical tests. The CBC was analyzed, and clinical chemistry tests were performed using a Biosystem analyzer with relevant reagents
