Investigating the utilization of healthcare services to manage respiratory tract infections (RTIs) among Qatari patients attended selected primary healthcare centers in Qatar by Islam, Nazmul

“…The large seasonal variation indicates additional likelihoods to decrease healthcare service use. After the bi-variate analysis of individual patient-level data of selected 4 healthcare services across age-categories, gender and various comorbidity status, healthcare services varied significantly across age-categories and whether patients had one of the five comorbidities. …”

CLINICAL AND ECONOMIC IMPACT OF GENETIC AND NON-GENETIC FACTORS ON INR NORMALIZATION IN PRE-OPERATIVE MANAGEMENT OF WARFARIN PATIENTS by ELJILANY, ISLAM AHMED SAYED AHMED

“…To optimize the period of preprocedural warfarin interruption to decrease the incidence of bleeding in case of bridging and the incidence of thromboembolism in case of non-bridging, a study was conducted to determine the influence of CYP2C9, VKORC1, CYP4F2, FII, and FVII genetic polymorphisms and non-genetic factors on INR decline in a cohort of Arabs undergoing a procedure that requires warfarin interruption and developing an algorithm to tailor the duration of warfarin interruption before the procedure. …”

Molecular dynamics of CH4/CO2 on calcite for enhancing gas recovery by Carchini, Giuliano

“…These results highlight how the CO2 geometry of adsorption is well defined and characterized by strong interaction, while methane adsorption is quite loose and depicts a very dynamic picture. Focusing on the effect of pressure, RDF peaks intensities increase, although this effect is limited to the 1-5 MPa range. …”

Pharmacoeconomic evaluation of voriconazole vs. liposomal amphotericin B in empiric treatment of invasive fungal infections in Turkey by Turner, Stuart J.

“…Univariate sensitivity analysis highlighted that increasing the duration of voriconazole by >1.2 days or decreasing LAmB by >1.0 days changes the result. Monte Carlo Simulation resulted in 69.4% of simulations favouring voriconazole per patient treated.Conclusion: There is a strong likelihood that voriconazole is economically more favourable than LAmB in the empiric treatment of IFI in Turkey.…”

Asymmetric effects of oil price shocks on the demand for money in Algeria by Amirouche, Chelghoum

“…This paper investigates the symmetric and asymmetric effects of real oil prices on real money demand in Algeria over the period 1999:Q1–2020:Q1. Using a linear autoregressive distributed lag model (ARDL), and a nonlinear autoregressive distributed lag model (NARDL), we find no evidence of a long-term relationship among the variables. …”

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

“…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. …”
