Comparative application of multicriteria decision making/analysis (MCDM/MCDA) methods for the evaluation of project success

The application of multicriteria decision making/analysis (MCDM/MCDA) methods is widespread for resolving important decision-making problems in the engineering sciences. The main objective of this article is the comparison of prominent MCDM/MCDA methods for the evaluation/assessment of project success. Twenty (20) comp...

Global Pharmacological Research on Diabetes Mellitus: A Bibliometric Analysis (2005–2025)

Pharmacological management of diabetes mellitus has undergone substantial transformation over the past two decades, evolving from a treatment paradigm centred on glycaemic control alone to one that integrates cardiovascular, renal, and metabolic risk reduction. Despite the rapid expansion of the scientific literature i...

Peer Review Report For: Associations between pharmaceutical industry interactions and prescribing practices in chronic non-malignant pain management: A protocol for a systematic review [version 2; peer review: 1 approved, 1 not approved]

Introduction Chronic non-malignant pain (CNMP) represents a major global health issue and is a primary reason for disability worldwide. Managing CNMP often involves prescribing analgesics which carry risks such as dependency and adverse outcomes. Interactions between healthcare professionals (HCPs) and the pharmaceutic...

A systematic review of the association of depression and psychological distress with cancer incidence and mortality risk in people with chronic diseases: evidence primarily from diabetes populations

Objective: This systematic review examined the association between depression, anxiety, psychological distress, and the risks of cancer incidence and mortality in adults with chronic diseases, to inform integrated chronic disease management. Methods: PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, and the Cochrane Library were searche...

Diagnostic Accuracy and Renal Safety of Carbon Dioxide Angiography in Lower Limb Angiography: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis

Background/Objectives: Iodinated contrast media (ICM) used in lower limb angiography carry risks of contrast-induced nephropathy (CIN) and allergic reactions, particularly in patients with peripheral arterial disease (PAD) and renal dysfunction. Carbon dioxide (CO2) angiography offers a potential non-nephrotoxic altern...

Qualitative analysis of outbreak management by national public health institutes across the WHO Eastern Mediterranean Region

Background: National public health institutes are science-driven agencies that lead surveillance, laboratory services, risk assessment, and emergency preparedness and response at country level. It is therefore essential to understand their role in the management of disease outbreaks. Aim: To examine the role of nationa...

Processing Differences Between AI-Generated and Human Therapist Responses: An Eye-Tracking Study

This study investigates whether large language model (LLM)-generated therapeutic responses are processed differently from human therapist responses, and whether labeling the source of a response (AI vs. human therapist) changes how it is received. Theoretically, the study is grounded in the concept of prediction error:...

MOSES-assisted versus conventional holmium laser enucleation of the prostate for benign prostatic hyperplasia: a pooled study

Purpose With the widespread adoption of holmium laser enucleation of the prostate (HoLEP), increasing attention has focused on whether pulse-modulation technologies can further improve procedural efficiency and perioperative outcomes. We therefore conducted an updated systematic review and meta-analysis comparing MOSES...
