| population | Saudi Arabia | “LITERATURE REVIEW: We reviewed all articles from 1986 to 2023, and there were 32 reported cases describing the co-occurrence of ALS and MS in different populations. Our case is the 33rd, and to our knowledge, it is the only case reported in the Middle East and specifically in Saudi Arabia.” | 0.95 | saudi_context_rules_v1 |

| population | Saudi Arabia | “Genetic analysis of TMPRSS6 gene in Saudi female patients with iron deficiency anemia. This study aims to identify the common genetic variations of the TMPRSS6 gene that affect iron levels among Saudi female patients with iron deficiency anemia (IDA). METHODS: All study participants were Saudi females (12-49 years old): 32 patients with IDA, 32 patients with IRIDA, and 34 healthy individuals comprising the control group. CONCLUSION: This is the first study to investigate the genetic variants of TMPRSS6 gene in Saudi female patients with IDA.” | 0.95 | saudi_context_rules_v1 |
| population | Saudi Arabia | “Using machine learning to reduce unnecessary rehospitalization of cardiovascular patients in Saudi Arabia. METHODS: Inpatient data were collected from 48 Ministry of Health hospitals (MOH) in Saudi Arabia from 2016 to 2019. RESULTS: From 2016 to 2019, we identified 403,032 hospitalized patients from 48 hospitals in 13 administrative regions of Saudi Arabia.” | 0.95 | saudi_context_rules_v1 |
| population | Saudi Arabia | “Various α-Thalassemia Genotype Combinations of the Saudi-Type Polyadenylation Signal Mutation (αT-Saudiα) in the Population of Bahrain: An Update of Genotype-Phenotype Analyses. The Saudi-type polyadenylation (polyA) signal mutation on the α2-globin gene, HBA2: c.*94A > G; AATAAA>AATAAG; αT-Saudiα, is one of the major α-thalassemia (α-thal) determinants in the population of Bahrain. Here, we report these various genotypes involving the Saudi-type polyA signal mutation and their relevant phenotype presentations. A total of 32 patients were diagnosed with the genotype of αT-Saudiα/αT-Saudiα.” | 0.95 | saudi_context_rules_v1 |
| population | Saudi Arabia | “Hepatitis C virus (HCV) is a common infection affecting 15% of hemodialysis population in Saudi Arabia resulting in delay in transplantation and long-term complications. We conducted an open-label prospective study using either peginterferon α-2a alone (Group I, 32 patients) or peginterferon α-2a plus adjusted dose ribavirin (Group II, 26 patients).” | 0.95 | saudi_context_rules_v1 |

Here, we used 51 respiratory samples from 32 patients with confirmed MERS-CoV infection for virus isolation in Vero B4 and Caco-2 cells.” | 0.95 | saudi_context_rules_v1 |
| population | Saudi Arabia | “MATERIAL & METHODS: This study was conducted after approval from the Ethics Committee of the Children's Hospital Taif, Saudi Arabia. Among the 32 cases, 24 were male and eight were female.” | 0.95 | saudi_context_rules_v1 |
| population | Saudi Arabia | “Ocular manifestations in chronic granulomatous disease in Saudi Arabia. RESULTS: This cohort included 32 CGD patients: 14 (44%) had abnormal eye findings, 11 (34%) had anterior segment disease, and 4 (12.5%) had chorioretinal lesions.” | 0.95 | saudi_context_rules_v1 |
| population | Saudi Arabia | “In this study, CYP1B1 mutations were searched for in 32 unrelated PCG patients from Morocco. The other, G61E, was previously found in patients from Turkey and Saudi Arabia.” | 0.95 | saudi_context_rules_v1 |
| population | Saudi Arabia | “Distribution of hepatitis C genotype and co-infection rate with hepatitis G in Saudi Arabia. We determined the hepatitis C virus (HCV) genotypes and the co-infection rate with hepatitis G (HGV) in 32 Arab patients infected with hepatitis C virus. Twenty two Saudi and ten Egyptian patients were recruited from southern Saudi Arabia, an endemic region for chronic liver disease. HCV genotype 4 was detected in 11 of 22 Saudi patients (50%). HCV genotype 1b was detected in 9 Saudi patients (40.9%) and HCV genotype 1a was detected in 2 Saudi patients (9.1%). We conclude that HCV genotypes 4 and 1b are the major pathogenic strains, accounting for greater than 90% of HCV across ethnic groups in the southern region of Saudi Arabia.” | 0.95 | saudi_context_rules_v1 |
| population | Saudi Arabia | “A total of 25 different cathepsin C mutations have been reported in 32 families with Papillon-Lefèvre syndrome (PLS) and associated conditions. To evaluate the generality of cathepsin C mutations, PLS probands representative of five reportedly unrelated Saudi Arabian families were evaluated by mutational and haplotype analyses. The R272P mutation has been previously reported in two other non-Saudi families. The presence of the R272P mutation in probands from these four Saudi families makes this the most frequently reported cathepsin C mutation. Results of haplotype analysis for genetic polymorphisms within and flanking the cathepsin C gene are consistent with inheritance of the R272P mutation "identical by descent" from a common ancestor in these four Saudi families.” | 0.95 | saudi_context_rules_v1 |
| population | Saudi Arabia | “HMG CoA lyase deficiency: identification of five causal point mutations in codons 41 and 42, including a frequent Saudi Arabian mutation, R41Q. The hereditary deficiency of 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl (HMG) CoA lyase (HL; OMIM 246450 [http://www3.ncbi.nlm.nih. gov:80/htbin-post/Omim/dispmim?246450]) results in episodes of hypoketotic hypoglycemia and coma and is reported to be frequent and clinically severe in Saudi Arabia. We found genetic diversity among nine Saudi HL-deficient probands: six were homozygous for the missense mutation R41Q, and two were homozygous for the frameshift mutation F305fs(-2). In 32 non-Saudi HL-deficient probands, we found three R41Q alleles and also discovered four other deleterious point mutations in codons 41 and 42: R41X, D42E, D42G, and D42H.” | 0.95 | saudi_context_rules_v1 |
| population | Saudi Arabia | “Pulmonary alveolar microlithiasis in a Saudi child and two cousins. Pulmonary alveolar microlithiasis is a rare disease and only 32 cases have been reported in children under 12 years of age. The first report on Saudi children with this disorder and on affected cousins is presented, supporting the possible hypothesis of it being an autosomal recessive disorder.” | 0.95 | saudi_context_rules_v1 |
