Qatari Genotype May Contribute to Complications in Type 2 Diabetes by Youssra Dakroury (9991407)

“…For patients with diabetes, hypertension (p<0.035) and retinopathy (p<0.016) were greater in the Q3 ancestry. Conclusion. These data suggest that the genotype may contribute to complication risk, as exemplified by the increase in hypertension and retinopathy in the Q3 ancestry, though the SLMAP allele was not implicated; however, diabetes prevalence did not differ between the four Qatari ancestries.…”

The Impact of Voluntary Recall on the Trust of Loyal and First-Time Consumers in a High Awareness Brand After a Functional Transgression by Valeria L M A Freundt (17541786)
