This paper uses official statistics and previous research by Saudi scholars, but mainly our own evidence from 23 interviews during 2015 and 2016 with 25-35-year-old males and females, to explain why modernisation is Saudi Arabia, which includes the diversification of its economy and a huge expansion in higher education for males and females, is unlikely to lead to a higher proportion of women in the workforce. This is because the total number of jobs in the country is unlikely to increase, and opportunities for women are likely to remain limited not only by employers’ hiring preferences and practices but also by the limited range of jobs that young women and their families consider acceptable. Thus rather than following the same modernizing path as Western societies, Saudi Arabia will add to the examples of multiple modernities.

AbstractKikuchi-Fujimoto disease (KFD) has been widely reported from Japan and sporadically from many parts of the world including Saudi Arabia, since its original description in 1972 but the disease remains poorly known by clinicians. In this paper we report two Saudi patients seen in Tabuk. Saudi Arabia. One was a 36-year-old Saudi man and the other a 16-yearold Saudi girl. Both presented with cervical lymphadenopathy and pyrexia. Histological examination of biospy material from both showed classical features of KFD. Other laboratory findings were unremarkable except for leucopenia. Following excision biopsy both patients recovered without sequelae. KFD is a self-limiting process of uncertain aetiology that predominantly affects young women aged 20–-30 years. We review the pathology, clinical featuers and possible aetiology of this interesting disease, which may well be underdiagnosed. Increased awareness of KFD will minimize the risk of confusing this entity with malignant lymphoma or other serious conditions.

This report describes an unusual and persistent dysphonia in two young women who had taken a therapeutic regimen of isotretinoin for intractable acne. We report perceptual and instrumental data for their dysphonia, and pose a theoretical basis for the relationship of dysphonia to this drug. We also provide recommendations for reducing the risk of acquiring a dysphonia during the course of treatment with isotretinoin.

Learning To Listen

Abstract Learning to listen and speak are well-established preludes for reading, writing, and succeeding in mainstream educational settings. Intangibles beyond the ubiquitous test scores that typically serve as markers for progress in children with hearing loss are embedded in descriptions of the educational and social development of four young women. All were diagnosed with severe-to-profound or profound hearing loss as toddlers, and all were fitted with hearing aids and given listening and spoken language therapy. Compiling stories across the life span provides insights into what we can be doing in the lives of young children with hearing loss.
