Comparative Serological Study for the Prevalence of Anti-MERS Coronavirus Antibodies in High- and Low-Risk Groups in Qatar
( Hindawi Publishing Corporation , 2019 , Article)Infection with Middle East respiratory syndrome coronavirus (MERS-CoV) could be asymptomatic or cause mild influenza-like illness. Therefore, the prevalence of MERS-CoV infections in the general population could be ... -
Comparing Levels of Metabolic Predictors of Coronary Heart Disease between Healthy Lean and Overweight Females.
( MDPI , 2021 , Article)Screening for the metabolomic signature of coronary heart disease (CHD) before disease onset could help in early diagnosis and potentially disease prevention. In this study, the levels of 17 CHD metabolic biomarkers in ... -
Comparing metabolic profiles between female endurance athletes and non-athletes reveals differences in androgen and corticosteroid levels
( Elsevier , 2022 , Article)Endurance training is associated with physiological changes in elite athletes, but little is known about female-specific effects of endurance training. Despite the significant rise in female sports participation, findings ... -
Comparing Methods for Induction of Insulin Resistance in Mouse 3T3-L1 Cells.
( Bentham Science Publishers , 2024 , Article)Cell culture plays a crucial role in addressing fundamental research questions, particularly in studying insulin resistance (IR) mechanisms. Multiple in vitro models are utilized for this purpose, but their technical ... -
Comparing Quantitative and Qualitative Methods for Detecting the In Vitro Activity of Colistin against Different Gram-Negative Bacilli
( Austin Publishing Group , 2021 , Article)The surge in the prevalence of Multidrug-Resistant (MDR) Gram-negative bacterial infections with limited treatment led to colistin reusing to treat MDR infections. This study aimed to determine economical, simple, and ... -
Comparing the Metabolic Profiles Associated with Fitness Status between Insulin-Sensitive and Insulin-Resistant Non-Obese Individuals
( MDPI , 2022 , Article)(1) Background: Young non-obese insulin-resistant (IR) individuals could be at risk of developing metabolic diseases including type 2 diabetes mellitus. The protective effect of physical activity in this apparently healthy ... -
