In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful, who has granted us His grace and strength, to present the sixth issue of the Sudan Journal of Health Sciences (the Journal), published by Alfajr College for Science and Technology (ACST) every four months. The Journal incepted during extraordinary times, amidst the challenging and exceptional circumstances of the unjust war imposed on Sudan. It stands as a witness to this unprecedented conflict in Sudan’s history. Despite the war, the Journal has continued to be published. Standing at the threshold of victory, we remain hopeful for the end of this difficult period in Sudan, Insha'Allah.

Publishers know what it means to issue a scientific Journal in the first place, let alone issuing it in such circumstances. The commitment required to publish a scientific Journal is immense, and to do so in such dire conditions is a testament to the unwavering dedication of the scholars behind this Journal. They embody determination, capability, and tireless effort, firmly believing in the mission of the Journal and ACST.

These scholars have worked tirelessly, day and night, meticulously collecting, reviewing, correcting, and revising articles, ensuring each stage of production is handled with the utmost care, resulting in the Journal’s esteemed form.

The Editor-in-Chief of this Journal, Professor Hasan Abuaisha, demonstrated remarkable perseverance and commitment, overcoming personal and general challenges to meticulously oversee the articles' progression. His renowned precision, extensive knowledge, and patience—honed through experience and scholarly expertise—are unparalleled. We pray for his health and well-being, acknowledging his invaluable contributions to science and its students. Our deepest appreciation and respect go to Professor Abuaisha, and we ask Allah to grant him the strength to guide this newborn Journal to compete with leading Journals inside and outside Sudan.

Supporting the Professor is a team of ambitious, enthusiastic, and dedicated young professionals, led by Dr. Egbal Ahmed Bashir, the Journal’s esteemed executive editor, and the Professor's invaluable right hand. Dr. Egbal has worked tirelessly and diligently to ensure the Journal’s continuity and visibility across various scientific platforms, attracting young, promising individuals equipped with the necessary expertise and skills, just to mention Dr. Sahar Elderdiri, and the young doctors: Rahaf Ibrahim, Hisham Zain, Rahma Ibrahim, Abdullah Nadir, Youmna Alhassan, and Omer Fadl. Leading these outstanding young professionals, Dr. Ali Adam Ali Hamad stands out for his efforts in spreading, preserving, and archiving the Journal, establishing an independent website, obtaining a DOI, and enhancing its presence on social media. This has significantly increased the Journal’s readership and contributor base.

Despite the challenging circumstances in Sudan, this newborn Journal has managed to publish six consecutive issues punctually, an accomplishment made possible by Allah’s grace and the collaborative efforts of distinguished scholars across various fields. These scholars served as scientific reviewers for the articles published over the past two years, rigorously evaluating submissions to uphold the Journal’s standards.

We ask Allah to grant success to all those involved with this Journal, guiding them and crowning their efforts with success. All praise and thanks are due to Allah, the Grantor of success for this distinguished work.
