Assessing the consistency of iPSC and animal models in cystic fibrosis modelling: A metaanalysis
( Public Library of Science , 2022 , Article)Introduction Cystic fibrosis (CF) is a hereditary autosomal recessive disorder caused by a range of mutations in the CF Transmembrane Conductance Regulator (CFTR) gene. This gene encodes the CFTR protein, which acts as a ... -
Association between Multimorbidity and COVID-19 Mortality in Qatar: A Cross-Sectional Study
( PagePress , 2023 , Article)This study assessed the association between multimorbidity and mortality from COVID-19 in the Middle East and North Africa region, where such data are scarce. We conducted a cross-sectional study using data of all cases ... -
Combined Noncoding RNA-mRNA Regulomics Signature in Reprogramming and Pluripotency in iPSCs
( Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute (MDPI) , 2022 , Article)Somatic cells are reprogrammed with reprogramming factors to generate induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs), offering a promising future for disease modeling and treatment by overcoming the limitations of embryonic stem ... -
COVID-19 exit strategy during vaccine implementation: a balance between social distancing and herd immunity
( Springer , 2022 , Article Review)Currently, health authorities around the world are struggling to limit the spread of COVID-19. Since the beginning of the pandemic, social distancing has been the most important strategy used by most countries to control ... -
Fibrillar form of α-synuclein-specific scFv antibody inhibits α-synuclein seeds induced aggregation and toxicity
( Springer Nature , 2020 , Article)Synucleinopathies including Parkinson’s disease (PD), dementia with Lewy bodies (DLB), and multiple system atrophy (MSA) are characterized by pathological accumulation of α-synuclein (α-syn). Amongst the various approaches ... -
High-throughput autoantibody screening identifies differentially abundant autoantibodies in autism spectrum disorder
( Frontiers Media SA , 2023 , Article)Introduction: Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a neurodevelopmental condition characterized by defects in two core domains, social/communication skills and restricted/repetitive behaviors or interests. There is no approved ... -
Identification of potential transcription factors that enhance human iPSC generation
( Springer Nature , 2020 , Article)Although many factors have been identified and used to enhance the iPSC reprogramming process, its efficiency remains quite low. In addition, reprogramming efficacy has been evidenced to be affected by disease mutations ... -
Identification of Prognostic Metabolomic Biomarkers at the Interface of Mortality and Morbidity in Pre-Existing TB Cases Infected With SARS-CoV-2
( Frontiers Media S.A. , 2022 , Article)Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection currently remains one of the biggest global challenges that can lead to acute respiratory distress syndrome (CARDS) in severe cases. In line with this, ... -
Influenza prevalence and vaccine efficacy among diabetic patients in Qatar
( Elsevier , 2023 , Article)Seasonal influenza viruses may lead to severe illness and mortality in patients with comorbidities, including Diabetes Mellitus (DM). Vaccination against influenza in DM patients may reduce influenza incidence and severity. ... -
Metabolic predictors of COVID-19 mortality and severity: a survival analysis
( Frontiers Media SA , 2024 , Article)Introduction: The global healthcare burden of COVID-19 pandemic has been unprecedented with a high mortality. Metabolomics, a powerful technique, has been increasingly utilized to study the host response to infections and ... -
Molecular epidemiology, genetic diversity, and vaccine availability of viral acute gastroenteritis in the middle East and North Africa (MENA) region
( Elsevier , 2022 , Article)Acute gastroenteritis is the cause of considerable mortality and morbidity worldwide, particularly among children under five years in underdeveloped countries. Most acute gastroenteritis (AGE) cases are attributed to viral ... -
The retrospective study of the metabolic patterns of BCG-vaccination in type-2 diabetic individuals in COVID-19 infection
( Frontiers Media , 2023 , Article)Background: The cross-protective nature of Bacillus Calmette-Guerin (BCG) vaccine against SARS-CoV-2 virus was previously suggested, however its effect in COVID-19 patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D) and the underlying ... -
Screening and diagnostic testing protocols for HIV and Syphilis infections in health care setting in Qatar: Evaluation and recommendations
( Public Library of Science , 2023 , Article)Background HIV and Syphilis are common STIs, which have become a concern and burden on healthcare systems, as many infections go untreated and lead to potentially serious complications. HIV is usually diagnosed with Western ... -
The spectrum of fungal colonization and their attributable effects on cystic fibrosis patients with rare CFTR genetic mutations
( Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute (MDPI) , 2021 , Article)Chronic airway colonization by bacteria and fungi is very common in CF patients, causing irreversible lung damage. It is known that rates of fungal infections are much lower than those of bacterial infections, however they ...
