Predictors of mortality and morbidity in critically ill COVID‐19 patients: An experience from a low mortality country
Published 2022“…<h3>Background and Aims</h3><p dir="ltr">Clinical characteristics and factors associated with mortality in patients admitted to the intensive care unit (ICU) in countries with low case fatality rates (CFR) are unknown. We sought to determine these in a large cohort of critically ill COVID-19 patients in Qatar and explore the early mortality predictors. …”

Research on the potential of photovoltaic technologies in reducing energy consumption in an urban mixed use residential community. A Case study for net zero energy community in Dub...
Published 2018“…Polycrystalline technologies with higher energy efficiencies from different manufacturers with 18.15% module efficiency were simulated resulting in 24% energy generation more than the base case panel with 16% module efficiency but from an economic point of view it is not a cost-effective solution due to its high cost per production AED/KWh rate. …”

Why do some countries produce more capital intensive output than others?
Published 2016“…The intuitive explanation of my hypothesis is that the risk of expropriation by corrupt government officials is higher in the case of capital-intensive projects due to the larger size of the prize (many economists argue that it is easier for a corrupt government official to expropriate large non-standard capital-intensive projects as opposed to smaller standardized labor-intensive projects), so in countries where the quality of governance is low, investors prefer to invest in labor-intensive projects with lower output per worker instead of capital-intensive projects with higher output per worker. …”

Unraveling the future productivity burden of cardiovascular disease in Qatar: Investigating the modifiable risk factors control in type 2 diabetes
Published 2025“…The financial value of PALYs was determined based on the gross domestic product (GDP) per full-time worker (i.e. US$80,573). The base-case model estimated the productivity burden of CVD, and interventional scenarios were simulated to assess potential gains resulting from improved control of modifiable risk factors, including reduced incidence of T2D, lower systolic blood pressure (SBP), decreased number of smokers, and reduced total cholesterol. …”
