Impostor phenomenon among urologists in Saudi Arabia
Impostor phenomenon (IP) is the persistent inability to believe that oneâs
success is deserved or has been legitimately achieved due to oneâs efforts or
skills. It is associated with burnout, anxiety and depression and can negatively
impact the lives of the affected individuals. This study aimed to determine the
prevalence of IP among urologists in Saudi Arabia. A cross-sectional study was
conducted among practicing urologists and urologists-in-training in Saudi Arabia
between November and December 2022. A self-administered questionnaire comprising
questions on the sociodemographic characteristics and the Clance
impostor phenomenon scale (CIPS) was distributed through email to all registered
urologists in the Saudi Commission for Health Specialties database. A total of
155 urologists (143 men and 12 women) were enrolled in this study. The majority
of the urologists (44.5%) were consultants, and the prevalence of the impostor
phenomenon in this study was 27.7%. Nearly half of the urologists (49.7%)
presented moderate levels of the phenomenon, 23.9% of the urologists
demonstrated high levels, and 20.6% presented low levels. Only 5.8% of the
urologists showed intense levels of the phenomenon. The phenomenon was
significantly more prevalent among those in training (p = 0.010) and
less prevalent among those with a subspecialty in endourology (p =
0.016). The prevalence of the impostor phenomenon among urologists was 27.7%. It
was more commonly seen in resident urologists, and those with a subspecialty in
endourology were less likely to be affected by this phenomenon

DOPA: Detecting Open Ports in Android OS
In smartphones, open ports can be exploited by malicious applications to allow attackers to remotely control user\u27s device. In this work, we perform an attack that opens a port on an Android device to remotely connect to this port and access various phone features without requesting any permission from the user. Additionally, we develop and implement a tool called, Detecting Open Ports in Android operating system (DOPA), that detects open ports and reports them to the user

Updates in the pathophysiology of COVID-19 infection in male reproductive and sexual health: a literature review
This extensive comprehensive review explores the impact of the Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic on menâs sexual and reproductive health. We conducted a literature review focusing on the possible pathophysiology by which severe acute respiratory syndrome corona virus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) affects menâs sexual and reproductive systems. We reviewed most of the studies that reported the impact of SARS-CoV-2 infection on the Testicular, Epididymal, Prostatic, and Penile tissue. Also, we focused on evaluating the SARS-CoV-2 infection on semen parameters and male reproductive hormones. Finally, we reviewed the COVID-19 vaccineâs effect on male reproductive and sexual health. Findings revealed the adverse consequences of SARS-CoV-2 at cellular and organ levels on the male genital tract. However, the reported data are still controversial. The initial data regarding COVID-19 vaccination was promising promoted safety for menâs reproductive and sexual health. We conclude this paper by offering recommendations to address these adverse consequences and potentially improve sexual and reproductive health among men in the post-COVID-19 pandemic era
Role of Living Anatomy in Medical Education: A Narrative Review
Introduction: There has been a significant change noticed in the way in how anatomy is taught and learned in last two decades. The use of teaching approaches such as body painting, peer physical examination, medical imaging, and virtual anatomy software in the teaching and learning of living anatomy was made possible by advancements in medical technology. This study focuses on a review of the historical context and contemporary developments in teaching and learning of live and surface anatomy with a special emphasis on its pedagogical elements, some opinions of medical educationists, and undergraduates. Conclusions: It is suggested that living anatomy be included as a core subject in the curriculum. Learning about living anatomy will be improved in an integrated and pertinent framework with the inclusion and execution of teaching and learning modalities such as body painting, peer physical examination, medical imaging, and virtual anatomy software
Impact of cluster of differentiation 20 expression and rituximab therapy in classical Hodgkin lymphoma: Real world experience
The prognostic impact of CD20 expression and rituximab therapy in classical Hodgkin lymphoma (cHL) is unclear. Among 310 patients, CD20 was expressed in 66 (22%) cases. The 3-year PFS was 75.1% for CD20+and 70% for CD20â (p = 0.36). The 3-year PFS was 84.7% for the rituximab group and 67.8% for the no rituximab group (p = 0.23). Only constitutional symptoms and positive interim PET/CT were significantly associated with worse outcome, HR 3.2 (1.14â9.01; p = 0.028) and 4.3 (2.27â8.1; p < 0.0001), respectively. Neither CD20 expression nor rituximab use significantly impacted outcome
