| population | Saudi Arabia | “Quality of life of 26 family members from four generations with X-linked hypophosphatemia: a cross-sectional study. 26 family members with XLH from Saudi Arabia were assessed via a home visit and clinical assessment in hospital.” | 0.95 | saudi_context_rules_v1 |
| population | Saudi Arabia | “In this study, we present for the first time the landscape of the lung microbiota in patients with ventilator-associated pneumonia in Intensive Care Units in Saudi Arabia. Of 51 on ventilation with pneumonia, the pathogens identified through sequencing corresponded with the findings from culture-dependent tests in 26 patients (50.98%), whereas the results differed in 30 patients (58.82%).” | 0.95 | saudi_context_rules_v1 |
| population | Saudi Arabia | “Whole Exome Sequencing in 26 Saudi Patients Expands the Mutational and Clinical Spectrum of Diabetic Nephropathy. The objective of this study was to examine the association of genetic loci with diabetic nephropathy (DN) in the Saudi population. Materials and Methods: Whole exome sequencing (WES) and bioinformatics analysis, such as Genome Analysis Toolkit, Samtools, SnpEff, Polymorphism Phenotyping v2, and Sorting Intolerant from Tolerant (SIFT), were used to examine the association of gene variations with DN in 26 Saudi patients (18 males and 8 females).” | 0.95 | saudi_context_rules_v1 |
| population | Saudi Arabia | “The hidden diversity of Saudi Arabian Red Sea octocorals revealed through a morpho-molecular assessment across bathymetric and latitudinal gradients. While these studies have revealed a remarkable richness and diversity of shallow-water species, mesophotic and deep-sea octocoral research remains limited in the region, in particular along the Saudi Arabian coast. Following six Red Sea oceanographic expeditions and various biodiversity surveys conducted between 2020 to 2023, we analysed a collection of 728 octocoral specimens sampled along 13 degrees of latitude in the Saudi Arabian Red Sea, from shallow-water reefs to deep-sea habitats. Our integrated results revealed the occurrence of 26 families and 56 genera in the basin from 3 to 859 m of depth. While the description of new species was beyond the scope of this work, here we provide a reference dataset for octocoral diversity from a biodiversity hotspot, as well as essential insights to inform biodiversity management and planning of conservation measures, particularly relevant for the rapidly developing Saudi Arabian Red Sea coast.” | 0.95 | saudi_context_rules_v1 |
| population | Saudi Arabia | “Vegetation Composition of the Halophytic Grass Aeluropus lagopoides Communities within Coastal and Inland Sabkhas of Saudi Arabia. Aeluropus lagopoides (L.) Thwaites is a halophytic forage plant growing in salt marsh habitats of inland and coastal sabkhas of Saudi Arabia. The present study provides an analysis of vegetation composition and distribution of the A. lagopoides community in five different regions within Saudi Arabia, emphasizing the environmental factors that affect species distribution. The floristic survey revealed the presence of 48 species, belonging to 26 families.” | 0.95 | saudi_context_rules_v1 |
| population | Saudi Arabia | “Colorectal cancer (CRC) is one of the most important causes of morbidity and mortality in the developed world and is gradually more frequent in the developing world including Saudi Arabia. According to the Saudi Cancer Registry report 2015, CRC is the most common cancer in men (14.9%) and the second most prevalent cancer. To explore the prevalence of KRAS gene mutations in the Saudi population, we collected 80 CRC tumor tissues and sequenced the KRAS gene using automated sequencing technologies. The chromatograms presented mutations in 26 patients (32.5%) in four different codons, that is, 12, 13, 17, and 31.” | 0.95 | saudi_context_rules_v1 |
| population | Saudi Arabia | “We retrospectively evaluated 43 primary or recurrent neurofibroma (NF) specimens from 26 patients (2002 to 2018) at the King Khaled Eye Specialist Hospital, Saudi Arabia.” | 0.95 | saudi_context_rules_v1 |
| population | Saudi Arabia | “Vagus nerve stimulation for refractory epilepsy: experience from Saudi Arabia. We report our experience with this treatment modality for refractory epilepsy in Saudi Arabia. PATIENTS AND METHODS: Collected data included 26 patients' demographics, epilepsy characteristics, seizure frequency, and treatment history. CONCLUSION: The experience with VNS in a single center in Saudi Arabia confirms that it is a safe and effective adjunctive therapy for refractory epilepsy in adult and pediatric patients.” | 0.95 | saudi_context_rules_v1 |
| population | Saudi Arabia | “The Saudi experience in fludarabine-based conditioning regimens in patients with Fanconi anemia undergoing stem cell transplantation: excellent outcome in recipients of matched related stem cells but not in recipients of unrelated cord blood stem cells. In this study, we used a uniform Flu-based conditioning regimen (ie, CY, Flu, ATG) in 26 pediatric patients with Fanconi anemia undergoing SCT.” | 0.95 | saudi_context_rules_v1 |
| population | Saudi Arabia | “Plasma fatty acids as diagnostic markers in autistic patients from Saudi Arabia. The aim of this study is to compare plasma fatty acid profiles of Saudi autistic patients with those of age-matching control subjects in an attempt to clarify the role of FA in the etiology of autism. METHODS: 26 autistic patients together with 26-age-matching controls were enrolled in the present study. The altered fatty acid profile was discussed in relation to oxidative stress, mitochondrial dysfunction and the high lead (Pb) concentration previously reported in Saudi autistic patients. CONCLUSIONS: Receiver Operating Characteristic (ROC) curve analysis shows satisfactory values of area under the curve (AUC) which could reflect the high degree of specificity and sensitivity of the altered fatty acids as biomarkers in autistic patients from Saudi Arabia.” | 0.95 | saudi_context_rules_v1 |
| population | Saudi Arabia | “This study details the experience of a tertiary referral teaching hospital in Central Saudi Arabia in the management of GI bleeding necessitating admission in ID adults. Five out of 26 patients with upper and 6 of 13 with lower GI bleeding needed operative treatment.” | 0.95 | saudi_context_rules_v1 |
