| population | Saudi Arabia | “Infectious Etiologies and Antimicrobial Management of Acute Chest Syndrome in Adult Sickle Cell Disease Patients: Pathogen Identification Patterns and Clinical Outcomes from a Five-Year Retrospective Study in Eastern Saudi Arabia. This study aimed to investigate the infectious etiologies, pathogen identification patterns, and antimicrobial management outcomes of ACS in adult SCD patients in Eastern Saudi Arabia. A total of 60 adult SCD patients experiencing 80 episodes of ACS were included.” | 0.95 | saudi_context_rules_v1 |
| population | Saudi Arabia | “Clinical characteristics and healthcare burden of neurofibromatosis type 1 in Saudi Arabia: a single centre experience. The study aimed to describe the clinical characteristics and healthcare burden of NF1, including those with PN and those receiving Selumetinib therapy, in Saudi Arabia. METHODS: This retrospective observational study was conducted at the National Guard Health Affairs King Abdulaziz Medical City in Saudi Arabia. RESULTS: A total of 60 patients with NF1 were included; 55.2% of them were females. CONCLUSION: This study highlights the clinical and healthcare challenges of NF1 and PN in Saudi Arabia, emphasizing the need for a multidisciplinary approach that combines medical, psychological, and financial support.” | 0.95 | saudi_context_rules_v1 |
| population | Saudi Arabia | “Quantitative Assessment of CT Pulmonary Angiogram (CTPA) in SCD Patients in Comparison to non-SCD Cases in Saudi Arabia. The disease is most prevalent in regions such as sub-Saharan Africa, the Mediterranean, and the Middle East, with Saudi Arabia showing significant variability in prevalence and severity across its provinces. METHODS: We conducted a retrospective comparison between 60 adult SCD patients and 60 age-matched controls, all of whom were evaluated for suspected PE in our emergency department using an MDCT scanner.” | 0.95 | saudi_context_rules_v1 |
| population | Saudi Arabia | “The Association Between Janus Kinase 2 and Factor V Leiden Mutations and Thrombotic Complications in Patients With Myeloproliferative Disorders: A Study From Saudi Arabia. We addressed the association between combined mutations of JAK2 and factor V Leiden (FVL) and thrombotic complications in Saudi Arabian patients with MPDs. Methods We studied 60 patients with MPDs, 32 with polycythemia vera (PV), 24 with essential thrombocythemia (ET), and four with primary myelofibrosis (PMF). Conclusions In the present study of patients with MPDs from Saudi Arabia, JAK2 mutations were found among all the studied patients, and FVL mutations were encountered in 20% of patients.” | 0.95 | saudi_context_rules_v1 |
| population | Saudi Arabia | “Evidence from genetic studies among rs2107538 variant in the CCL5 gene and Saudi patients diagnosed with type 2 diabetes mellitus. This study aimed to investigate the genetic role of the rs2107538 variant in the CCL5 gene in Saudi patients with T2DM. Sixty subjects with T2DM patients and 60 healthy controls participated in this prospective case-control study. Finally, the rs2107538 variant was linked to an increased risk of T2DM in the Saudi Population.” | 0.95 | saudi_context_rules_v1 |
| population | Saudi Arabia | “Proinflammatory cytokine profiles in prediabetic Saudi patients. A total of 60 adult Saudi prediabetes patients and healthy control individuals were included in this study.” | 0.95 | saudi_context_rules_v1 |
| population | Saudi Arabia | “Effect of tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α) -308 and -1031 gene polymorphisms on periodontitis among Saudi subjects. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Peripheral blood was used to prepare genomic DNA from 60 subjects with stage II to stage III periodontitis, as along with 65 control subjects. CONCLUSION: The TNF-α (-308 G/A) polymorphism potentially has no correlation with periodontitis susceptibility, whereas the TNF-α (-1031) CT genotype and C allele might be related to periodontitis among Saudi subjects.” | 0.95 | saudi_context_rules_v1 |
| population | Saudi Arabia | “Cytokine Profiling among Children with Multisystem Inflammatory Syndrome versus Simple COVID-19 Infection: A Study from Northwest Saudi Arabia. RESULTS: We identified 60 children with MIS-C (mean age of 7.4 ± 3.8 years) compared to 30 age- and sex-matched controls with simple COVID-19.” | 0.95 | saudi_context_rules_v1 |
| population | Saudi Arabia | “β-Catenin accumulation and S33F mutation of CTNNB1 gene in colorectal cancer in Saudi Arabia. In the present investigation an attempt was made to study the role of β-catenin mutations in exon-3 in 60 colorectal cancer patients from Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (KSA).” | 0.95 | saudi_context_rules_v1 |
| population | Saudi Arabia | “Spectrum of Mutations in 60 Saudi Patients with Mut Methylmalonic Acidemia. To better elucidate the spectrum of mutations causing mut MMA in Saudi patients, we screened a cohort of 60 Saudi patients affected by either forms of the disease for mutations in the MUT gene. This study describes for the first time the clinical and mutational spectrum of mut MMA in Saudi Arabian patients.” | 0.95 | saudi_context_rules_v1 |
| population | Saudi Arabia | “The second to fourth digit ratio (2D:4D) in Saudi boys with autism: A potential screening tool. METHODS: This case-control study was conducted with 60 male children with 31 individuals having classic-onset autism and 29 individuals serving as age-matched, healthy controls. CONCLUSIONS: This study demonstrates a significantly lower 2D:4D ratio in Saudi boys with autism, which indirectly suggests that these boys were exposed to high levels of prenatal FT.” | 0.95 | saudi_context_rules_v1 |
| population | Saudi Arabia | “Characteristics of Down syndrome subjects in a Saudi sample. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Cephalometric radiographs of 60 Saudi DS subjects and 60 controls with specific inclusion criteria were used.” | 0.95 | saudi_context_rules_v1 |
| population | Saudi Arabia | “In order to evaluate the contribution of polymorphisms of the adiponectin gene, ADIPOQ, to the risk of colon cancer, we conducted a case-control study of 60 colon cancer patients and 60 age, gender and ethnicity-matched controls in the Saudi population.” | 0.95 | saudi_context_rules_v1 |
| population | Saudi Arabia | “METHODS: The total study sample comprised of 60 Arab children (38 boys and 22 girls) from three Arab countries (22 Jordanians, 19 Saudis and 19 Egyptians). RESULTS: It was found that the housewives and Saudi parents described more autistic symptoms and externalizing behavior problems.” | 0.95 | saudi_context_rules_v1 |
| population | Saudi Arabia | “Association between β+252 tumour necrosis factor polymorphism and asthma in western Saudi children. In this study, we extended our research work on TNFA to include the genotyping of Saudi asthmatic children as regards to TNFB gene (namely as lymphotoxin-α, LTA). We examined 60 asthmatic Saudi children compared to 56 healthy non-asthmatics using the PCR-RFLP analyses to identify the polymorphism +252A>G in intron 1 in lymphotoxin-α gene. Herein, we stated that more than 93% of Saudi children under investigation lived in the randomized areas of western regions of Saudi Arabia.” | 0.95 | saudi_context_rules_v1 |
