  • SAUDI ARABIA @Religious Intolerance: the Arrest, Detention and Torture of Christian Worshippers and Shi'a Muslims
    £SAUDI ARABIA @Religious intolerance: The arrest, detention and torture of Christian worshippers and Shi'a Muslims 1. INTRODUCTION Hundreds of men, women and children have been arrested and detained in Saudi Arabia since the Gulf Crisis in August 1990, most without charge or trial, solely for the peaceful expression of their religious beliefs. Scores have been subjected to torture, flogging or other cruel, inhuman or degrading treatment while in detention. In Saudi Arabia, where the vast majority of citizens are Sunni Muslims, both public and private non-Muslim religious worship is, in practice, banned. This ban is not limited to non-Muslims, however, as the public expression of Shi'a Muslim beliefs or the performance of their religious rites is strictly monitored and generally prohibited. In recent years a clear pattern of discrimination against religious minorities, particularly resident Christians and Saudi Arabian Shi'a Muslims, has emerged. Religious intolerance in the country appears to have become particularly acute after the Gulf Crisis of 1990-1991, as evidenced by a marked increase in the number of Christian worshippers being arrested and ill-treated solely for the peaceful expression of their religious beliefs. Members of the Christian faith in Saudi Arabia are, with very few exceptions, expatriate workers resident in the Kingdom for relatively short periods of time. During their stay in the country some form informal private worship groups. All non-Muslim worship, whether public or private, is banned in practice, and Christians meeting to worship are often the target of arrest, detention and torture or ill-treatment at the hands of Saudi Arabia's security and religious authorities.

  • Traumatic Spinal Cord Injury in Saudi Arabia: an Epidemiological Estimate from Riyadh
    Spinal Cord (2012) 50, 882–884 & 2012 International Spinal Cord Society All rights reserved 1362-4393/12 www.nature.com/sc ORIGINAL ARTICLE Traumatic spinal cord injury in Saudi Arabia: an epidemiological estimate from Riyadh SS Alshahri1,2, RA Cripps3, BB Lee2,4 and MS Al-Jadid5 Study design: Retrospective study. Objectives: To review traumatic spinal cord injury (TSCI) rates and epidemiology at the Riyadh Military Hospital (RMH) in Saudi Arabia and to hypothesise strategies for a more integrated approach to injury prevention in Saudi Arabia. Setting: RMH, Rehabilitation Division. Methods: A review was conducted of all patients with TSCI aged X14 years admitted to RMH from January 2003 to December 2008. Descriptive analysis was performed for age, gender, cause of TSCI, completeness and neurological level of the injury. Results: In all, 307 TSCI patients were admitted during this period: 88% were male, and their mean age was 29.5 years old (median 27, range 14–70). Of all TSCI patients, 52% had tetraplegia and 51% had a complete TSCI. Road traffic accidents (RTAs) were the main cause of TSCI (85%). Conclusions: TSCI in Saudi Arabia affects mainly the male population. The rate of RTAs caused by four-wheeled vehicles is the highest globally reported RTA statistic. Primary prevention strategies specific to the region should be developed to decrease the number of car accidents. The higher-than-expected rate of complete injuries may reflect practices in acute management and transport, and suggests that a review of the acute and integrated management of TSCI may also be necessary.

E-mail: [email protected] Objectives: To assess the attitude and practice of doctors in the Military Hospital Primary Care Centers in Riyadh (RMH) toward research and to identify the main barriers to conduct research. Materials and Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted from March to April, 2010, at RMH primary care centers. The sample included all general practitioners (GPs) working in primary healthcare centers. A self-administered questionnaire was formulated from different sources and used as a tool for data collection.Results: The response rate was 75%. Among the respondents 96.9% agreed that research in primary care was important for different reasons. Most of the GPs had a positive attitude toward research: 68% had been influenced by research in their clinical practice and 66% had an interest in conducting research, and74.2% of the respondents had plans to do research in the future. Insufficient time was the most frequently cited barrier (83.5%) for participating ABSTRACT in research, followed by the lack of support (58.8%). Conclusions: Many of the GPs had a positive attitude toward research, but had no publications or plan for new research.
