Abstract:
Background: Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE) is a systemic autoimmune disease that necessitates a multidisciplinary approach. Many studies showed misconceptions and low awareness in different regions of the kingdom of Saudi Arabia. The aim: of this study is to evaluate the level of awareness among general population in Taif city, Saudi Arabia. Methodology:across-sectional study using a self-administrated online Arabic questionnaire. Results: a total of responses from 408 participants whose sociodemographic characteristics showed 34.8% belonged to the age group of 18-24 years, 66.2% were females, 53.7% were married, 83.6% were Saudis, 35.5% had post-graduate education, and 46.1% were medical students. The analysis showed that 89% had poor awareness, only 3.7% had good awareness and 7.6% had a fair awareness about SLE. Conclusion: This study showedlow general awareness and some misconceptionsamong the Taif-KSA population regarding the SLE. Recommendations: health education campaigns to increase awareness of SLE among the Saudi population, will be helpful to detect and diagnose early cases of SLE patients to reduce its complication and improve the quality of patients life.

Abstract:
Polymorphisms in the genes encoding CYP2C9 enzyme and VKORC1 reductase significantly influence the dose variability of coumarinic oral anticoagulants (COAs). Substantial inter- and intraethnic variability exists in the frequencies ofCYP2C9∗2 and∗3 andVKORC1–1639A alleles. However, the prevalence ofCYP2C9andVKORC1genetic variants is less characterized in Arab populations. A total of 131 healthy adult subjects from the Al-Ahsa region of Saudi Arabia were genotyped for theCYP2C9∗2 and∗3 andVKORC1–1639G>A polymorphisms by PCR-RFLP method. The frequencies of theCYP2C9∗2 and∗3 andVKORC1–1639A alleles were 13.3%, 2.3%, and 42.4%, respectively, with no subjects carrying 2 defective alleles. The frequencies of theCYP2C9∗3 andVKORC1–1639A alleles were significantly lower than those reported in different Arabian populations. None of the subjects with theVKORC1–1639AA genotype were carriers ofCYP2C9∗1/∗3 genotypes that lead to sensitivity to COAs therapy. The low frequency of theCYP2C9∗3 allele combined with the absence of subjects carrying 2 defectiveCYP2C9alleles suggests that, in this specific population, pharmacogenetic COAs dosing may mostly rely uponVKORC1genotyping.

Abstract:
Background No Arabic or its dialect questionnaire is available to evaluate the anterior knee pain in the Saudi Arabian religious population. This study aims to translate, adapt, and psychometrically validate the Knee Injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score (KOOS-PF) Patellofemoral scale in the Arabic language in Saudi Arabic dialect. Method Translation has been done as per standard guidelines. The questionnaire was administered to 95 patients to determine the psychometric properties including on two different occasions, with a 48-hour gap in-between; to ensure that their answers were reliable; 84 patients (88.4% compliance rate) responded for test and retest reliability, ceiling-floor effects, validity and other psychometric criteria. Results Cronbach’s alpha (internal consistency) and test–retest reliability was good and excellent (∞ = 0.81; ICC > 0.95). None of the items showed >30% floor or ceiling effect and the minimal detectable change was within the acceptable range (<30%). The KOOS-PF subscale showed a moderate correlation (−0.568) with pain-visual analog scale for its construct validity. Conclusion The Arabic dialect of KOOS-PFis reliable and valid to be used to evaluate isolated knee pain of patellofemoral origin in Muslim patients in Saudi Arabia.

Abstract:
Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic has had a significant impact on public mental health. Our objective was to assess prevalence of depression, anxiety, and stress among the general population in Saudi Arabia during this pandemic. A descriptive cross-sectional approach was used targeting all accessible populations in Saudi Arabia. Data were collected from participants using an electronic pre-structured questionnaire. Psychological impact was assessed using the Arabic version of Depression, Anxiety, and Stress Scale (DASS-21). A total of 1597 participants completed the survey. In total, 17.1% reported moderate to severe depressive symptoms; 10% reported moderate to severe anxiety symptoms; and 12% reported moderate to severe stress levels. Depression, anxiety, and stress were significantly higher among females, younger respondents, and health care providers. Depression was higher among smokers, singles, and non-working respondents. Anxiety was higher among those reporting contacts with COVID-19 positive cases, previously quarantined and those with chronic health problems. Our findings reaffirm the importance of providing appropriate knowledge and specialized interventions to promote the mental well-being of the Saudi population, paying particular attention to high-risk groups.

Abstract:
Inherited individual differences in eating behaviors known as “appetitive traits” can be measured using the Adult Eating Behavior Questionnaire (AEBQ). The AEBQ can be used to assess individuals that require intervention regarding their weight, eating habits, and for the identification of eating disorders. Arabic eating behavior assessment tools are few. This study, therefore, aimed to translate and validate the AEBQ in Arabic language (AEBQ-Ar) and to confirm the factor structure while assessing the internal consistency of all subscales. Participants completed the AEBQ-Ar and reported their sociodemographic data online. Exploratory factor analysis (EFA) was used and internal reliability was assessed using Cronbach’s α. Correlations between AEBQ-Ar subscales and body mass index (BMI) were done using Pearson’s correlation. A sample of 596 adults, mean age of 35.61 ± 12.85 years, was recruited from Saudi Arabia. The 6-factor structure was the best model, excluding emotional under- eating subscale and merging enjoyment of food and food responsiveness subscales. Internal consistency was acceptable for all subscales (Cronbach’s α = 0.89–0.66). Emotional over- eating was positively associated with BMI, and slowness in eating was negatively associated with BMI. The AEBQ-Ar with 6-subscales appears to be a valid and reliable psychometric questionnaire to assess appetitive traits in Arabic speakers.

Abstract:
This study aimed to examine the degree of Arabic language teachers’ consideration of persuasive writing skills in teaching expression and their differences according to the variables of gender, academic qualifications, and years of experience. To achieve the objectives of the study, the descriptive approach was applied in the form of the school survey method. The study sample consisted of 239 male and female Arabic language teachers in public schools of Najran region in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. They constituted 42.7% of the study population. To collect the data, the study used a questionnaire consisting of 21 items after verifying its validity and reliability in the Saudi context. The results showed that the degree to which the Arabic language teachers consider the persuasive writing skills in teaching expression in all domains of the study instrument and the total score ranked moderate. Also, the results revealed that there were statistically significant differences in the degree of Arabic language teachers’ consideration of persuasive writing skills in teaching expression in all domains of the study instrument and the total score due to gender variables in favor of females, academic qualifications in favor of graduate studies, and years of experience in favor of ten years or more. The study recommends the Ministry of Education should work on developing the practices of Arabic language teachers for persuasive writing skills in teaching expression by providing appropriate training programs.

Abstract:
Obesity is a highly heritable and genetically heterogeneous disorder. Reports have shown that the number of obese individuals will project to worldwide high levels in the next couple of years. In this study I tried to identify missing heritability in obesity by looking at extreme phenotypes that are likely to be enriched with rare variants. This will improve the power of their discovery by identifying the loci that may reveal more rare variants. I employed the strategy of using 'extreme' sub-groups of obese patients to identify known and novel loci for obesity in the population of Saudi Arabia. Two different approaches were used. The first was to investigate the contribution of copy number variation (CNV) to obesity in Saudi adults/children that have mental retardation, dysmorphic features and obesity or morbid obesity: for adults, this was defined as body mass index (BMI) ≥ 30 and ≥ 40 kg.m-2 respectively; for children, BMI respectively above the 90th and 97th percentiles. The second was to look for known and new Mendelian forms of obesity in multiplex consanguineous families in children that have extreme obesity (z-BMI above 97th centile). Genome-wide genotyping was performed using the Affymetrix SNP 6.0 Chip platform (AFFYMETRIX, Santa Clara, CA) to discover novel copy number variants using PennCNV. I also used a whole exome sequencing in combination with the detection of runs of homozygosity (ROH) and linkage analysis to screen for known monogenic and possibly novel obesity genes in multiplex Saudi consanguineous families. Two rare obesity causing CNVs were identified from this study. The first was the known chromosome 16p11.2 heterozygous deletion that has been previously shown to be associated with obesity. The second is a novel rare homozygous CNV deletion that encompasses TRIB3 gene that has been previously associated with diabetes. A chromosome 16p11.2 duplication was also found within the known chromosome 16p11.2 deletion. This duplication helped in narrowing down the obesity-causing region within the chromosome 16p11.2 deletion region. Additionally, rare CNV duplication with a size above 500kb were found to be slightly enriched (P=0.017) in cases versus controls. In this study we have also shown the presence of a novel homozygous missense MC4R mutation in combination with a heterozygous missense LPIN3 mutation within the same family. The carriers of MC4R mutation have developed an extreme obesity phenotype on the other hand the carriers of LPIN3 mutation also carried a heterozygous MC4R mutation and were found to be lean suggesting a reverse effect of the LPIN3 gene on the development of obesity. In another family a heterozygous deletion was found in a possibly novel obesity-causing gene CHRNA7. This gene mainly mediates fast signalling transmission at synapses and is found particularly in the lateral hypothalamus that regulates food appetite. In summary, this thesis presents multiple novel CNVs and genes that are found as promising obesity causing variants. It is hoped that the work from this thesis may contribute towards elucidation of the role of CNVs and novel genes in the development of obesity.

Abstract:
This study describes cancer incidence in under 24 year olds, particularly leukaemias, lymphomas and central nervous system tumours. It also describes the socioeconomic status (SES) of the geographically delimited Governorates in Saudi Arabia, by deriving two indices – the first time this has been done in the country. It also sought to determine whether SES and Hajj (occurring in Makkah) as a measure of population mixing has an association with the incidence of these cancers. During 1994 to 2008, 17,150 cases were identified from the Saudi Cancer Registry. Census data were accessed for 2004 and included 29 indicators. A continuous SES index was constructed using exploratory factor analysis (EFA) and a categorical index using latent class analysis (LCA). Incidence rate ratios (IRRs) were calculated for cancers in Makkah compared to other Governorates by year to assess the effect of Hajj, and for all Governorates to assess the effect of SES. The Hajj had no significant effect on the incidence for all cancer groups. The continuous index produced by EFA consisted of scores ranging from 100 to 0, for affluent to deprived Governorates. The LCA found a four-class model as the best model fit. Class 1 was termed ‘affluent’, Class 2 ‘upper-middle’, Class 3 ‘lower-middle’ and Class 4 ‘deprived’. The urbanised Governorates were affluent, whereas the rural Governorates were on average more deprived. For SES, an elevated risk was found for acute lymphoblastic leukaemia in the affluent class (IRR=1.38, 95%CI=1.23-1.54), and was reduced in the deprived class (IRR=0.17, 95%CI=0.10-0.29). Similar associations were observed for all cancer groups. The findings are not supportive of the PM hypothesis, but give support to the delayed infection hypothesis, suggesting that delayed exposure to infections may prevent immune system modulation, although results may be exacerbated by poor case-ascertainment/under-diagnosis in deprived areas. Similarities between the two indices suggest validity.

Full text
Abstract:
Timely and accurate data on the spatial distribution of the population for small urban areas are a key requirement for sustainable development. Unfortunately, population data in many countries is limited by coarse spatial and temporal resolution. The aim of this research was to develop, refine and validate a model that uses remotely sensed satellite sensor data, demographic data and field survey data to obtain an accurate small-area population map. It uses the specific case study of Saudi Arabia, where few studies have attempted to estimate population distributions at fine scale. Moreover, it is desired to better understand how (i) different image algorithms affect the accuracy of land cover data and Cii) different spatial resolution satellite sensor data affect the discrimination of urban characteristics to be used as input to a predictive model. This research investigated a range of models of the relationship between dwelling unit density and urban remote sensing covariates, with a view to predicting dwelling unit density at a finer spatial resolution than currently available and subsequently to transform this distribution to estimate population. The main contribution of this research was to demonstrate the gradual refinement of the predictive model using both Ci) a variety of explanatory variables including building height and the number of floors and a choice of resolutions and Cii) a set of alternative models including global regression, regional regression, geographically weighted regression and dasymetric mapping. The fitted models varied in terms of their accuracies. The set of models that used detailed residential land use classes obtained from fine spatial resolution satellite sensor data were the most accurate compared with the set of models that used general land cover classes obtained from coarse spatial resolution satellite sensor data. 6-class dasymetric mapping was the most accurate model of all those tested.

AbstractThe Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) region plays a vital role in shaping the global energy markets because of its substantial amount of hydrocarbons resources. Although the GCC has abundant hydrocarbon resources, countries in the region have also shown their commitment and intent to become the global leaders in alternate energy, especially, renewable energy through their “Visions and Laws”. Further, All the countries in the Middle East have also set targets for the deployment of renewable energy at the federal or local level.For several decades, there has been steady economic and population growth of the Middle East countries, with most of the region’s wealth and socio-economic development, tied to its substantial oil and gas resources. Renewable energy can provide an alternative to their energy landscape, which holds a vast potential to cut fuel costs, reduce GHG emissions.To promote renewable energy, in the last five years, renewable energy has gained a lot of interest in the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) countries. Low tariffs bids for renewable energy generation in the United Arab Emirates (UAE) and Saudi Arabia since 2016 have made renewable energy, especially solar power competitive with conventional energy (International Renewable Energy Agency. Renewable Energy Market Analysis-GCC 2019. s.l.: International Renewable Energy Agency, 2019).With the push from the decision-makers to reduce the risk of dependence fossil fuels, the renewable energy plans can be implemented in the GCC. Decision-makers in the GCC have recognized the need for a plan for the post-oil era. This chapter will explore the GCC long term policies and government’s role in shaping the renewable energy market. Further, the chapter will also explore the challenges & opportunities related to the renewable energy sector in GCC (International Renewable Energy Agency.

The associated risks are compounded by increasing exposure and vulnerability through rapid and unregulated urbanization, poor infrastructure, and sociocultural factors, among other elements. This research explores the flash flooding risk in the Saudi Arabian city of Jeddah with a particular focus on the Abruq Ar Rughamah neighborhood, which experienced a destructive flood in November 2009 that resulted in 116 deaths and 1,200 families becoming homeless. The neighborhood is an interesting case study as it has two distinctive urban layouts representing planned and irregular settlement types. In this paper, the focus is placed on exposure to flash flood hazards using a geographic information system to study urban layouts, building types, and resident populations in conjunction with data from satellites, flood mapping studies, and topographic data. The results show that most of the study area is located along a natural flood path. The regions that were affected by the 2009 disaster received no comprehensive site rehabilitation. This paper concludes that it is important to develop a risk management strategy that includes limiting urban expansion in flood-prone areas and redesigning neighborhoods to increase flood resilience.

Abstract:
Amid mounting death tolls in Iraq, Syria, and Yemen, sectarian discourse is on the rise across the Arab world—particularly in the online sphere, where extremist voices are amplified and violent imagery and rhetoric spreads rapidly. Despite this, social media also provides a space for cross-sectarian discourse and activism. Analysis of over 7 million Arabic tweets from February to August 2015 suggests that violent events and social network structures play key roles in the transmission of this sectarian and countersectarian rhetoric on Twitter. The vast majority of tweets containing anti-Shia, anti-Sunni, or countersectarian rhetoric were sent from the Gulf and were especially concentrated in Saudi Arabia, mirroring Twitter’s demographic distribution across the Arab world, as well as rising tensions and regime crackdowns on the Saudi Shia population. Anti-Shia rhetoric is much more common online than anti-Sunni or countersectarian rhetoric, reflecting the minority status of Shia throughout the region and the manner in which anti-Shia rhetoric is amplified by influential Twitter users with millions of followers. While social media has facilitated Sunni-Shia interaction online, including the coordination of joint political protest movements, today countersectarian rhetoric is often dismissed or decried as pro-Shia propaganda.

Abstract:
Abstract Saudi Arabia consumes a significant amount of oil domestically for transportation and energy generation purposes. The booming population and high power consumption contribute to a sharp increase in power demands. The Saudi electric utility is investing heavily in upgrading the power grid and generation infrastructure to keep up with surging consumption. The desert belt in Saudi Arabia is exposed to substantial levels of solar irradiance, which renders Saudi Arabia a good candidate for large scale solar energy schemes. Upper and lower limits of cost and energy output are to be estimated for such ambitious endeavors to enter the national and international conversations. In this work, an attempt was made to estimate the area of photovoltaic panels and levelized energy cost required for generating the peak load and baseload power demands of the entire country and contrast them against the subsidized and unsubsidized cost of electricity in the kingdom. The levelized energy cost was found to be higher than the unsubsidized cost of electricity in the kingdom. The area required for both schemes was not found to be a limiting factor when compared to the available land area.

Abstract:
After the economic rise in Saudi Arabia in 1938, workers migrated from across Saudi Arabia seeking better work opportunities. Statistics from the General Census of Population and Housing in 2010 reveal that the total number of international immigrants increased from 0.7 to 1.73 million between 2002 and 2010 (from 29.4% to 50% of the Population), coming from different countries, cultural, social and religious backgrounds. Over recent years, a perception has developed by some citizens that there are too many Immigrants, which has exposed increased feelings of insecurity. Anti-immigrant attitudes and social exclusion have become more prominent, Saudi nationals have become concerned about diminishing national identity, in addition to believe that expatriates take available work and economic opportunities away from nationals, main cause of crime, and moral corruption. Immigrants have brought with them new ideas, skills and practices from their home cultures, which add to the new urban cultures in Jeddah. This has helped to create a culturally vibrant urban environment. The study will discuss the challenges faced by immigrants in Jeddah, in terms of interaction and social harmony with Saudi citizens in public spaces, and the underlying causes of those challenges. Qualitative method is used in this study, through discuss and analyse general literature review about the objective of the research (Public space and Immigration social challenges in Jeddah), then propose general recommendations that contribute to the improvement of the immigrants social life in the public space.

Abstract:
Geographical and racial differences in the incidence of thrcmbo-embolisn could be related to basic dissimilaritiesin the haemostatic system in different ethnic groups. However reliable comparative population studies in haemostatic parameters is lacking. The large expatriate ccmnunity in Saudi Arabia offers such a chance.Subjects tested were all healthy blood donors (aged 20-50 years) and were classified on the basis of ethnic origininto three categories (1) Arabs n=750, (2) Westerns (Americans and Europeans) n=400, and (3) S.E. Asians (Filipinos) n=570. The measurements done included PT, PTT, TT, Reptilase time, Plasma fibrinogen, AT III, Plasminogen, F.VIII:C, FX, α-2 Antiplasmin and Platelet aggregation in response to ADP (20.0, 2.0, 1.0, 0.5 & 0.25 uM), Collagen, Arachidonic acid, Adrenaline and Ristocetin (1.5, 1.2 & 1.0 mg/ml).There were no significant ethnic differences in the measured plasmatic clotting tests. This contrasts the finding of many smaller studies. Besides no significant ethnic differences were noted in platelet aggregation response to high doses of ADP (20 uM) or Ristocetin (1.5 mg/ml) and to Collagen. However, 45% of the S.E. Asians displayed abnormally inhibited responses to Adrenaline when compared to Arabs (34%) and Westerns (35.2%). Asians also displayed more inhibited responses to lower doses of ADP (2.0 & 1.0 uM) . On the other hand, S.E. Asians showed the lowest incidence of inhibited Arachidonic acid responses (9%) when compared to Arabs (24%) and Westerns (26%) . Similar racial differences were noted in response to low doses of Ristocetin (1.2 & 1.0 mg%) where Arabs and Asians showed high incidence of abnormally reduced responses (26-28%) when compared to Westerns (15%). No evidence of enhanced aggregation could be detected in Westerns. Changes of climate and/or dietary habits could be important factors influencing the haemostatic system in such a way that reduces ethnic dissimilarities.

Abstract:
Abstract Renewable energy is experiencing a surge in the Middle East and North Africa. Investigations of the economic feasibility of utility level renewable energy projects are necessary for such projects to become part of the zeitgeist of power generation in the region and be viewed as a sustainable clean alternative. Saudi Arabia, with the advent of Vision 2030, has placed renewable energy as a key pillar of its energy policy with several renewable energy projects planned and commissioned in the past couple of years. Although Solar Energy seems like an obvious choice for Saudi Arabia, owing to its location and the amount of solar irradiance it experiences annually, there remain unanswered questions about this option’s viability. Several investigations into the financial efficacy of large-scale solar projects in the kingdom have raised concerns about their economic feasibility. Wind turbines have the potential of resolving the economic questions about renewable energy as a source of power for domestic consumption to cover the Kingdom’s growing energy demands. The power generation capacity of Saudi Arabia has grown exponentially due to several factors such as modernization and a population boom in the past five decades, thus necessitating finding clean energy alternatives. In this work, estimates of area, energy output, and levelized energy cost for a large, utility-scale, energy scheme is obtained using a RETScreen model, which is informed by up-to-date figures from the region. The levelized cost of energy, area required, and energy output of a wind power plant with a nameplate capacity — the full load of the power plant as intended — equivalent to the country’s peak load demand is estimated. The levelized energy cost resulting from the model is compared with the current unsubsidized costs of energy in the kingdom.

Abstract:
Saudi Aramco gas pipeline location classification are designed with a similar approach to the American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME) B31.8, which segments the pipeline length and counts the population for each segment. For the segments width, ASME utilizes a fixed distance, i.e., 400 m, while Saudi Aramco uses the pipeline Rupture Exposure Radius (RER), a consequence modeling driven distance similar to ASME’s Potential Impact Radius (PIR). The design factors (i.e., wall thickness requirements) are selected based on the population density within the defined segments, while also affecting the number of segments and emergency isolation valves required along the pipeline. Previously, Saudi Aramco pipelines safety standards set two default RER values to be used in the pipeline design based on conservative estimates. Based on the pipeline diameter, the RER is set at 1,000m or 2,000m for less than 24″ pipeline and greater than or equal to 24″ in size, respectively. Saudi Aramco standard defined RER by modelling the downwind dispersion distance at ground level in case of a pipeline full bore rupture to the limit of ½ the lower flammable limit (LFL) of the released vapor cloud, which was shown to be smaller than the standardized values. As sweet gas pipeline systems are hugely expanding to accommodate the increase in domestic demand in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, an efficient method for calculating RER was developed and introduced to the standard. For future pipelines, lower RER distances resulted in more flexibility in route selection, lower pipeline location class, and hence thinner wall thicknesses, less emergency isolation valves required, and longer span between sectionalizing valves, which all translate to cost savings. Existing pipelines currently require less upgrades when encountering urban development in their route, have less number of High Consequence Areas (HCAs) and better repair prioritization. By statistically analyzing and modeling the Saudi Aramco gas pipeline network, this paper discusses the development of an empirical formula that is representative and less conservative for estimating pipelines flammable gas cloud dispersion ½ LFL. The resulted calculation method had been developed utilizing consequence modeling software, and is expressed as a simple formula as a function of the pipeline pressure and diameter. The established method is currently adopted by Saudi Aramco pipeline safety standards, and resulted in a reduction of 74% of the average pipelines RER, with a standard deviation of 4 meters from the consequence modeling results, and minor diversion in consequence distances when compared to international standards calculation methods such as ASME PIR.

Abstract:
Researchers and practitioners have been modeling the street networks of metropolitan and geographical regions using space syntax or configurational analysis since the late 1990s and early 2000s. Some models even extend to a national scale. A few examples include the island of Great Britain, within the national boundaries of England, over half of the Combined Statistical Area of Metropolitan Chicago and the entirety of Chatham County, Georgia and the City of Savannah in the USA, and the Chiang-rai Special Economic Zone in northern Thailand bordering Myanmar and Laos. Researchers at Qatar University constructed a space syntax model of Metropolitan Doha in 2018. It covered a land area of 650 km2 , encompassing over 24,000 streets, and approximately eighty-five percent (~85%) of the total population (~2.8 million) in Qatar. In a short time, this model led to a deeper understanding of spatial structure at the metropolitan and neighborhood level in Doha compared to other cities of the world, especially in the Gulf Cooperation Council region. The paper presents the initial results of expanding this model to the State of Qatar, which provides ideal conditions for this type of large-scale modeling using space syntax. It occupies the Qatari Peninsula on the Arabian Peninsula adjacent to the Arabian/Persian Gulf, offering natural boundaries on three sides. Qatar also shares only a single border with another country to the southwest, which Saudi Arabia closed due to the current diplomatic blockade. The expanded model includes all settlements and outlying regions such as Al Ruwais and Fuwayriţ in the far north, Al Khor and the Industrial City of Ras Laffan in the northeast, and Durkan and Zekreet in the west. Space syntax is serving as the analytical basis for research into the effect of the newly opened rail transportation systems on Doha's urban street network. Researchers are also utilizing space syntax to study micro-scale spatial networks for pedestrians in Souq Waqif, Souq Wakra, and other Doha neighborhoods. The paper gives a brief overview of this research's current state with an emphasis on urban studies.

Abstract:
The International Health Regulations (2005) are legally binding on 196 States Parties, Including all WHO Member States. The IHR aims to keep the world informed about public health risks, through committing all signatories to cooperate together in combating any future “illness or medical condition, irrespective of origin or source, that presents or could present significant harm to humans.” Under IHR, states agreed to strengthen their public health capacities and notify the WHO of any such illness in their populations. The WHO would be the centralized body for all countries facing a health threat, with the power to declare a “public health emergency of international concern,” issue recommendations, and work with countries to tackle a crisis. Although, with the sudden and rapid spread of COVID-19 in the world, many countries varied in implementing the WHO guidelines and health recommendations. While some countries followed the WHO guidelines, others imposed travel restrictions against the WHO’s recommendations. Some states refused to share their data with the organization. Others banned the export of medical equipment, even in the face of global shortages. The UN Compliance Research group will focus during the current cycle on analyzing the compliance of the WHO member states to the organizations guidelines during the COVID-19 pandemic.
