(
MDPI
, 2020 , Article)
Soft drink consumption has become a significant public health concern that is associated with
various adverse health outcomes.We aim to examine the association between soft drink consumption
and aggressive behavior among ...
Detection of DNA Bases via Field Effect Transistor of Graphene Nanoribbon with a Nanopore: Semi-empirical Modeling
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers
, 2021 , Article)
DNA sequencing techniques are critical in order to investigate genes’ functions. Obtaining fast, accurate, and affordable DNA bases detection makes it possible to acquire personalized medicine. In this article, a ...
A novel method to generate key-dependent s-boxes with identical algebraic properties
(
Elsevier
, 2022 , Article)
The s-box plays the vital role of creating confusion between the ciphertext and secret key in any cryptosystem, and is the only nonlinear component in many block ciphers. Dynamic s-boxes, as compared to static, improve ...
Goodness-of-fit testing based on Gini Index of spacings for progressively Type-II censored data
(
Taylor & Francis
, 2021 , Article)
In this article, we propose two new scale invariant test statistics when the
available data are subject to progressively Type-II censoring. The proposed
tests are based on Gini index of spacings. It is observed thorough ...
On goodness-of-fit testing for Burr type X distribution under progressively type-II censoring
(
Springer
, 2022 , Article)
In this article, we propose two goodness-of-fit test statistics for the Burr Type X
distribution when the available data are subject to progressively Type-II censoring.
The proposed test statistics are based on the sample ...
BNT162b2 and mRNA-1273 COVID-19 vaccine effectiveness against the SARS-CoV-2 Delta variant in Qatar.
(
Nature Researc
, 2021 , Article)
With the global expansion of the highly transmissible SARS-CoV-2 Delta (B.1.617.2) variant, we conducted a matched test-negative case-control study to assess the real-world effectiveness of COVID-19 messenger RNA vaccines ...
Association of Prior SARS-CoV-2 Infection With Risk of Breakthrough Infection Following mRNA Vaccination in Qatar.
(
American Medical Association
, 2021 , Article)
The effect of prior SARS-CoV-2 infection on vaccine protection remains poorly understood. To assess protection from SARS-CoV-2 breakthrough infection after mRNA vaccination among persons with vs without prior SARS-CoV-2 ...
mRNA-1273 COVID-19 vaccine effectiveness against the B.1.1.7 and B.1.351 variants and severe COVID-19 disease in Qatar
(2021 , Article)
The SARS-CoV-2 pandemic continues to be a global health concern. The mRNA-1273 (Moderna) vaccine was reported to have an efficacy of 94.1% at preventing symptomatic COVID-19 due to infection with ‘wild-type’ variants in a ...
Epidemiological impact of prioritising SARS-CoV-2 vaccination by antibody status: Mathematical modelling analyses
(
BMJ Publishing Group
, 2021 , Article)
Background Vaccines against SARS-CoV-2 have been developed, but their availability falls far short of global needs. This study aimed to investigate the impact of prioritising available doses on the basis of recipient ...
