populationSaudi Arabia“However, there are no studies on the Saudi Arabian population for the detection of CNVs linked to ASD, to the best of our knowledge. Therefore, the aim of the present study was to explore the prevalence of CNVs in autistic Saudi Arabian children. Genomic DNA was extracted from the peripheral blood of 14 autistic children along with four healthy control children and then array-based comparative genomic hybridization (aCGH) was used to detect CNVs. In the present study, CNVs in autistic Saudi Arabian children were identified to improve the understanding of the etiology of autism and facilitate its diagnosis.”0.95saudi_context_rules_v1
populationSaudi Arabia“However, the surveillance practices among FAP individuals in Saudi Arabia are unknown. RESULTS: A total of 14 patients were included with an average age of 25 years.”0.95saudi_context_rules_v1
populationSaudi Arabia“There is a lack of comprehensive clinical and pathological documentation of PTLD cases among Saudi patients, and the available data are limited to a few case reports. MATERIAL AND METHOD: In this review, we share our insights on cases diagnosed with PTLD at King Faisal Specialist Hospital and Research Center, a prominent tertiary center in the western region of Saudi Arabia, from 2005-2023. RESULT: We have diagnosed a total of 14 cases of PTLD in our department, with an age range spanning from 3 to 62 years. In this study, we present our experience from a large tertiary center in the western region of Saudi Arabia.”0.95saudi_context_rules_v1
populationSaudi Arabia“The objective of this functional genomics study was to identify the resistant genes by analyzing the genome of E. avium IRMC1622a, a type of bacteria found in feces collected from a patient at a Saudi Arabian tertiary hospital. The present study revealed that the E. avium IRMC1622a genome contains a high number of genes associated with virulence factors, and 14 matched pathogenic protein families and predicted as human pathogen (probability score 0.855).”0.95saudi_context_rules_v1
populationSaudi Arabia“Maternal perspectives: The needs of Saudi families of children with Down's syndrome. Down syndrome (DS) is a chromosomal condition that is affecting an increasing number of infants born in Saudi Arabia. This study investigates the needs of families with children with DS in Saudi Arabia from mothers' perspectives and in a cultural and religious context. An exploratory qualitative research design was used, and semi-structured interviews were conducted with 14 mothers of children with DS.”0.95saudi_context_rules_v1

populationSaudi Arabia“Delineating the phenotypic spectrum of hyperphosphatasia with mental retardation syndrome 4 in 14 patients of Middle-Eastern origin. We report here detailed clinical, biochemical, and molecular findings of 14 patients clinically suspected to have HPMRS4, from three Middle-Eastern Countries; Saudi Arabia, Qatar, and Oman. We believe that the recurrent mutations identified in our cohort may represent founder mutations in big tribes from a certain geographical region of Saudi Arabia, Qatar, and Oman.”0.95saudi_context_rules_v1
populationSaudi Arabia“BACKGROUND: Crohn's disease is being increasingly reported from Saudi Arabia and information about its pattern is still accumulating. AIM OF THE STUDY: To describe and classify the disease and assess the response to therapy in patients referred to a tertiary care centre in Gassim region, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (KSA). PATIENTS AND METHODS: Fifteen Saudi patients found to have Crohn's disease over an eight-year period were studied. The age of 14 patients was less than 40 years. CONCLUSION: Crohn's disease occurs more commonly in young Saudi females.”0.95saudi_context_rules_v1
populationSaudi Arabia“Molecular analysis of the SMN and NAIP genes in Saudi spinal muscular atrophy patients. In this study we examined the deletion of the SMN and NAIP genes in 14 Saudi families (16 patients and 38 relatives of the patients, including parents and siblings) and six healthy Saudi volunteers. All control Saudi volunteers and all but two family members of the patients had both normal SMN and NAIP genes. Our results show that the incidence of NAIP deletion is higher in the more severe SMA cases and the dual deletions of the SMN and NAIP genes are more common in Saudi SMA type-I patients compared to patients of other ethnic groups.”0.95saudi_context_rules_v1
populationSaudi Arabia“Male pseudohermaphroditism: factors determining the gender of rearing in Saudi Arabia. OBJECTIVE: Experience with male pseudohermaphrodites at King Fahd Hospital of King Faisal University, Al-Khobar, Saudi Arabia from 1981 to 1991 was reviewed to ascertain the factors determining the gender of rearing. METHODS: The records of 14 patients consisting of 6 prepubertal and 8 postpubertal patients were studied. CONCLUSIONS: The male genotype is a more important factor than phallic adequacy in determining the gender of rearing in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, an observation attributable to the financial, social, and cultural benefits that the male gender confers in Saudi society.”0.95saudi_context_rules_v1

During a period of three years more than 14 cases of MSUD have been confirmed in our hospital suggesting an alarmingly high rate of incidence of this disease in the Kingdom as compared to the West.”0.95saudi_context_rules_v1
