Innovative strategies to reduce traffic related injuries and deaths in youth by Joanne Banfield (19794507)

“…This is consistent with the cognitive dissonance theory, which states that changing the beliefs that underlie certain behaviors can cause a behavioral change (2). From these theories, one can expect that changing the risk taking attitudes of adolescents can lead to a decrease in the probability of collisions. …”

Qatar’s immigrants at higher risk of diabetes by Nature Research (16552612)

“…The researchers stress, however, that their preliminary results should be confirmed in future studies involving larger numbers of participants. 1 “We would advise the Qatari government to screen all immigrants entering the country, as this would decrease the risk of unnecessary complications due to the late diagnosis of diabetes,” says lead author Dennis Mook-Nakamori. …”

Hepato‐splanchnic fluxes during exercise in patients with cirrhosis—a pilot study by Stefanos Volianitis (22155835)

“…Heart rate increased from 68 (62–74) at rest to 95 (90–100), 114 (108–120), and 140 (134–146) beats/min (<i>P</i> < 0.05), respectively. The hepatic blood flow, as determined by constant infusion of indocyanine green with arterial and hepatic venous sampling, declined from 1.01 (0.75–1.27) to 0.69 (0.47–0.91) L/min (<i>P</i> < 0.05). …”

Cost-Benefit Analysis of Antimicrobial Stewardship Program in the Adult General Medicine Setting in Qatar by Dina Abushanab (10696501)

“…Antimicrobials use and resource utilization, and their associated costs, declined after the maturity of ASP (i.e. positive cost saving), with a cost saving of QAR 458 (US$ 125) per 100-patient beds per year, signifying a benefit of QAR 458 generated for each QAR 1 invested in the ASP service. …”

The cost associated with the development of the antimicrobial stewardship program in the adult general medicine setting in Qatar by Dina Abushanab (10696501)

“…The operational costs decreased with the developed ASP. Whereas antimicrobial consumption and resource utilisation, and their associated costs, appear to have declined with the developed ASP, with a cost saving of QAR458 (US$125) per 100-patient beds, the avoided cost was negative, by QAR4,807 (US$1,317) per 100-patient beds, adding to a total QAR4,224 (US$1,160) increase in the 100-patient beds cost after ASP development.…”
