Aims: to assess the HIV/AIDS-related knowledge and attitude among dental students and dentists in KSA, to explore the association between the dental students’ knowledge toward HIV, their age, gender, and academic year and to compare the level of knowledge among dental students, interns, and dentists. Study design: This is an observational cross-sectional study. Place and Duration of Study: Conducted in Saudi Arabia at Jeddah, Riyadh, Almadina, Hail, Dammam, Jazan, and Sakaka cities from December 2020 to August 2021. Methodology: Self-administered questionnaires were used to collect data. Background information and HIV/AIDS-related knowledge and attitudes were collected using a self-administered -based questionnaire, the first section assessed demographic data, while the second section assessed knowledge and attitudes towards dental treatment for HIV/AIDS patients. Results: The total number of participants was 461. The percentage of age distribution 49.7% were 30 years. Following; knowledge-based group 50.5%, 1.5% and 47.1% 14 considered blood, saliva are possible HIV origins. 83.3% believe that HIV is transfusion origin. 15 While, 3.3% considered disease is contiguous and 4.8% believe it is due to sharing of food. Conclusion: Current study reveals a lack of knowledge and attitude among dental students 17 and dentists, with insignificant variations. More education regarding AIDS patients is needed 18 in dentistry community.

Concussion Knowledge

Background Dangers of sports-related concussion are well documented, and those participating in sports involving significant contact are at an even higher risk relative to the general population. Despite extensive concussion education, athletes still make decisions that would be considered unsafe, such as underreporting and continuing to play despite experiencing symptoms. Although baseline testing is an increasingly common practice at all levels of sport, little is known about its ability to improve player safety perceptions. Aims The current study examines whether taking part in a standardized baseline concussion assessment changes athletes’ knowledge, attitudes, or perceptions of concussion safety decisions. Method A total of 229 club and National Collegiate Athletic Association athletes completed a modified Rosenbaum Concussion Knowledge and Attitudes Survey–Student Version (RoCKAS-ST), which was used to evaluate knowledge, attitudes, and perceptions of concussion safety decisions in hypothetical scenarios. Athletes were randomly assigned to either complete baseline concussion testing prior to the RoCKAS-ST or complete baseline testing after the RoCKAS-ST. Results Athletes randomly assigned to complete baseline testing before the RoCKAS-ST demonstrated greater agreement with favorable concussion safety decisions in hypothetical scenarios relative to athletes completing baseline testing after the RoCKAS-ST. The two conditions did not differ with respect to concussion knowledge or attitudes. Discussion Baseline testing appears to have an added benefit of resulting in more favorable perceptions toward making safe decisions following suspected concussions. Conclusion Baseline testing may provide an effective means of improving a broader constellation of concussion safety behavior, particularly in club athletes, who are typically underserved in terms of concussion-related resources and care.
