Biocorrosion behavior of biodegradable nanocomposite fibers coated layer-by-layer on AM50 magnesium implant by Abdal-hay, Abdalla

“…The corrosion performance of coated and uncoated coupon samples was investigated by means of electrochemical measurements. The results showed that the AJS 3D membrane fiber layers, particularly the hybrid membrane layers containing a small amount of nHA (3wt.%), induce a higher biocorrosion resistance and effectively decrease the initial degradation rate compared with the neat AM50 coupon samples. …”

Appropriateness of gentamicin therapeutic drug monitoring at a Middle Eastern tertiary hospital setting: a retrospective evaluation and quality audit by Al-Sulaiti, Fatima Khalifa

“…Although 27.6% (n = 16) of gentamicin concentrations were non-therapeutic, continuing gentamicin dosing without adjustment was the most frequent post-analytical action (69.8%, n = 37). Gentamicin dose regimen continuations, dose regimen decreases and dose regimen discontinuations were inappropriately applied in 27% (n = 10), 25% (n = 2) and 14% (n = 1) of the times, respectively. …”
