Effect of SAMe-TT2R2 score and genetic polymorphism on the quality of anticoagulation control in Qatari patients treated with warfarin.
(
Springer Nature
, 2020 , Article)
There is no strong evidence on pharmacogenetics role on the quality of INR control after the initiation phase and on the maintenance of stable INR on the long term as measured by the time in therapeutic range (TTR). The ...
The effect of genetic and nongenetic factors on warfarin dose variability in Qatari population.
(
Pharmacogenomics Journal
, 2020 , Article)
The objective of this study is to estimate the prevalence of VKORC1, CYP2C9, and CYP4F2 genetic variants and their contribution to warfarin dose variability in Qataris. One hundred and fifty warfarin-treated Qatari patients ...
Effect of CYP2C19 genetic variants on bleeding and major adverse cardiovascular events in a cohort of Arab patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention and stent implantation
(
Lippincott Williams and Wilkins
, 2022 , Article)
Introduction One-third of patients have clopidogrel resistance that may lead to major adverse cardiac events (MACEs). By contrast, it was found that some clopidogrel-treated patients have hyperresponsive platelets that are ...
Genomewide association analysis of warfarin dose requirements in Middle Eastern and North African populations
(
Wiley-Blackwell
, 2022 , Article)
To date, there has been no genomewide association study (GWAS) from the Middle East and North African (MENA) region to identify genetic variants associated with warfarin dose variability using this approach. In this study, ...
Warfarin-Rifampin-Gene (WARIF-G) Interaction: A Retrospective, Genetic, Case–Control Study
(
Wiley-Blackwell
, 2023 , Article)
Warfarin is extensively metabolized by cytochrome P450 2C9 (CYP2C9). Concomitant use with the potent CYP2C9 inducer, rifampin, requires close monitoring and dosage adjustments. Although, in theory, warfarin dose increase ...
Genetic and non-genetic factors impact on inr normalization in preprocedural warfarin management
(
Dove Medical Press
, 2021 , Article)
Background: Annually, 10% of warfarin patients will likely need to stop warfarin prior to elective surgery to achieve a baseline international normalization ratio (INR) level (INR ≤ 1.2) at the time of the procedure. This ...
Genetic Factors Associated with Morphine Consumption in Women Undergoing Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy: A Prospective Cohort Study.
(
Dove Press Ltd
, 2023 , Article)
Morphine has been a crucial analgesic agent used perioperatively in various surgical procedures. Genetic factors can lead to morphine dose requirement interpatient variability. Our objective was to determine the contribution ...
A cross-sectional analysis of zinc and copper levels and their relationship to cardiovascular disease risk markers in Qatar biobank participants
(
Frontiers Media
, 2023 , Article)
Cardiovascular diseases (CVD) are the leading cause of mortality and morbidity worldwide. Dietary intake, particularly zinc (Zn) and copper (Cu) has been strongly associated with CVD. These trace elements play a crucial ...
