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

“…We have found no difference in the month-to-month rates of RTI-related GP visits (per 1000 total visits) over the study period (non-significant decreasing trend). However, there was a significant decreasing trend in the monthly rates of antibiotics consumption and an increasing trend in the tests/investigations done but there was no clear increasing or decreasing trend in the monthly rates of other medications use. …”

Battery-Induced Load Hiding and Its Utility Consequences by Aly, Hussein

“…Our findings reveal that the inclusion of battery users in datasets can diminish the quality of conclusions drawn from these data. This can result in a decrease in the Area Under the Curve (AUC) by more than 10% when attempting to profile users within single-occupant and multiple-occupant households. …”
