Trace element composition of size-fractionated suspended particulate matter samples from the Qatari Exclusive Economic Zone of the Arabian Gulf: the role of atmospheric dust by Oguz Yigiterhan (14151006)

“…For several other elements (Cd, Cu, Mo, Zn, and Ca) the excess concentrations present after lithogenic correction are most likely of biogenic/anthropogenic origin. The excess concentrations, relative to average dust, for most elements (except Cd) decreased with distance from the shore, which may be due to differences in biology, currents, proximity to the coast, or interannual processes.…”

Prevalence of polypharmacy and the association with non-communicable diseases in Qatari elderly patients attending primary healthcare centers: A cross-sectional study by Ayman Al-Dahshan (8962568)

“…Females were 1.18 times more likely to have polypharmacy compared to males (95% CI: 1.03–1.34). …”

Glycolytic overload-driven dysfunction of periodontal ligament fibroblasts in high glucose concentration, corrected by glyoxalase 1 inducer by Amal Ashour (6752957)

“…</p><h3>Results</h3><p dir="ltr">In high glucose concentration cultures, there was a ca. twofold increase in cellular MG, cellular protein MG-H1 content and decreased attachment of PDLFs to collagen-I. This was driven by increased hexokinase-2 linked glucose metabolism and related increased MG formation. …”
