The Syrian war divided the country into temporary regions with different political influences and heterogeneously impacted health care accessibility among these regions....
Change in prevalence of advanced lung cancer cases at presentation; change in overall survival odds....
The study included 5160 patients from all Syrian governorates (mean [SD] age, 59.6 [10.8] years; 4399 men [85.3%]). New diagnoses sharply declined during the first 3 years of the war, with partial rec...
The Syrian war has been associated with a marked decline in the management of patients with lung cancer, with limited access to specialized care, delayed diagnoses, and substantial decrease in surviva...
The importance of mentorships in medical education and neurosurgery is highly attributed to the support and encouragement of the advances and learning opportunities for medical students and junior neu...
The provision of healthcare services in Iraq has been negatively affected by a lack of resources, strained healthcare infrastructure, and low patient socioeconomic status. This paper describes a case ...

Gulf War Illness is a type of chronic multisymptom illness, that affects about 30% of veterans deployed to the 1990-91 Persian Gulf War. Veterans deployed to Iraq/Afghanistan after 2000 are reported t...
Here, we used structural magnetic resonance imaging and diffusion tensor imaging to measure the volumes of subcortices, brainstem subregions and white matter integrity of brainstem fiber tracts in 188...
We found that compared to healthy controls, veterans of both campaigns presented with substantially smaller volumes in brainstem subregions, accompanied by greater periaqueductal gray matter volumes. ...
These structural differences in the brainstem neurons and tracts may reflect autonomic dysregulation corresponding to the symptom constellation, which is characteristic of Gulf War Illness. Understand...
