Associations between Bone Mineral Density and WOMAC Scores in Healthy Individuals: Insights from the Qatar Biobank by Mohammed Al-Hamdani (16962702)

“…However, BMD measures significantly contributed to predicting stiffness after controlling for sociodemographic variables (R² = 0.065, ΔF(7, 1724) = 3.34, p= 0.002), with a higher total body BMD associated with increased stiffness and a higher trunk BMD associated with decreased stiffness. …”

Evaluation of transportation network reliability during unexpected events with multiple uncertainties by El Khoury, John

“…This paper presents a numerical example that shows the result of ignoring uncertainties after a disaster is overestimated. Also, it was observed that increasing variation of demand and supply decreases the network performance and network reliability, and the increasing knowledge of the user in route choice behavior increases the network efficiency.…”

Impact of seafood and fruit consumption on bone mineral density by Zalloua, Pierre A.

“…Multiple regression models were used to assess the relationships among dietary variables and BMD, after adjusting for age, BMI (body mass index), weight, occupation, smoking status, and alcohol consumption. Results Increasing seafood consumption was significantly associated with greater BMD in women (p < 0.001), especially those consuming more than 250 g per week of seafood. …”
