Dysbiosis of the Salivary Microbiome is Associated with Hypertension and Correlated with Metabolic Syndrome Biomarkers
(
Dovepress
, 2021 , Article)
Background: Hypertension (HT) is an idiopathic disease with severe complications and a high incidence of global mortality. Although the disease shares characteristic features with diabetes and obesity, the complex interplay ...
Synthesis and Optimization of a Highly Stable and Efficient BN/TiO2 Nanocomposite for Phenol Degradation: A Photocatalytic, Mechanistic and Environmental Impact Study
(
Wiley
, 2021 , Article)
Different BN/TiO2 nanocomposites were prepared hydrothermally, and their ratio was optimized to get the best photocatalytic performance towards phenol degradation. They were characterized by x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, ...
Assessment of calcified aortic valve leaflet deformations and blood flow dynamics using fluid-structure interaction modeling
(
Elsevier
, 2017 , Article)
Aortic valve diseases are among the most common cardiovascular defects. Since a non-functioning valve results in disturbed blood flow conditions, the diagnosis of such defects is based on identification of stenosis via ...
Blood Flow Disturbance and Morphological Alterations Following the Right Atrial Ligation in the Chick Embryo.
(
Frontiers Media
, 2022 , Article)
Collectively known as congenital heart defects (CHDs), cardiac abnormalities at birth are the most common forms of neonatal defects. Being principally responsible for the heart's pumping power, ventricles are particularly ...
In Vitro and In Vivo Validation of GATA-3 Suppression for Induction of Adipogenesis and Improving Insulin Sensitivity
(
MDPI
, 2022 , Article)
Impaired adipogenesis is associated with the development of insulin resistance and an increased risk of type 2 diabetes (T2D). GATA Binding Protein 3 (GATA3) is implicated in impaired adipogenesis and the onset of insulin ...
Molecular epidemiology and genotype distribution of Human Papillomavirus (HPV) among Arab women in the state of Qatar
(
BioMed Central Ltd.
, 2014 , Article)
Background: Human Papilloma Virus (HPV) infection is the major cause of cervical cancer worldwide.
With limited data available on HPV prevalence in the Arab countries, this study aimed to
identify the prevalence and ...
Assessing the performance of a serological point-of-care test in measuring detectable antibodies against SARS-CoV-2
(
Public Library of Science
, 2022 , Article)
This study investigated the performance of a rapid point-of-care antibody test, the BioMedomics COVID-19 IgM/IgG Rapid Test, in comparison with a high-quality, validated, laboratory-based platform, the Roche Elecsys ...
The QChip1 knowledgebase and microarray for precision medicine in Qatar
(
Nature Research
, 2022 , Article)
Risk genes for Mendelian (single-gene) disorders (SGDs) are consistent across populations, but pathogenic risk variants that cause SGDs are typically population-private. The goal was to develop "QChip1," an inexpensive ...
Duration of mRNA vaccine protection against SARS-CoV-2 Omicron BA.1 and BA.2 subvariants in Qatar.
(
Nature Research
, 2022 , Article)
SARS-CoV-2 Omicron BA.1 and BA.2 subvariants are genetically divergent. We conducted a matched, test-negative, case-control study to estimate duration of protection of the second and third/booster doses of mRNA COVID-19 ...
Docosahexaenoic Acid Counteracts the Hypoxic-Induced Inflammatory and Metabolic Alterations in 3T3-L1 Adipocytes
(
MDPI
, 2022 , Article)
Background: Hypoxia is caused by the excessive expansion of the white adipose tissue (AT) and is associated with obesity-related conditions such as insulin resistance, inflammation, and oxidative stress. Docosahexaenoic ...
