Prior Statins Use and Risk of Mortality and Severe Disease from COVID-19: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis
( Oxford University Press , 2021 , Article)Background Statins up-regulate angiotensin converting enzyme-2, the receptor of SARS-CoV-2, while also exhibiting pleiotropic antiviral, antithrombotic and anti-inflammatory properties. Uncertainties exist about their ... -
Prior zero forcing for cognitive relaying
( IEEE , 2013 , Article)Relaying primary signals by cognitive base-stations (CBSs) can help the primary system and thus win CBSs a higher chance to transmit their own signals. For this purpose, conventional zero-forcing (CZF) beamforming is a ... -
Prioritisation of lean construction barriers in Qatari context: A fuzzy AHP approach
( Inderscience Enterprises Ltd. , 2019 , Article)This study identifies, reviews and prioritises lean construction barriers in Qatari context. Lean has been widely adopted in manufacturing and service sectors, but its applications in construction sector are found in scarce. ... -
Prioritising agility variables for cold supply chains
(2011 , Article Review)It is recognised that organisations that focus on supply chainagility would profit as they can rapidly and cost effectively respond to unpredictable changes in the business environment. As supply chain agility is a ... -
Prioritising factors for selection of infectious waste management contractors using fuzzy analytic hierarchy process
( Inderscience Publishers , 2011 , Article)Bio-medical or infectious waste has not received its due attention in developing countries like India. It is being collected and disposed off along with the municipal solid waste (MSW). Therefore, infectious waste management ... -
