The thesis aimed to:<\/h3>\n
    \n
  • \n

    Measure serum levels of the hormones ghrelin and gastrin among Yemeni Qat chewers.<\/h3>\n<\/li>\n
  • \n

    Compare serum levels of ghrelin, gastrin, triglycerides, and cholesterol among Yemeni Qat chewers and non-chewers.<\/h3>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    The study yielded several key findings summarized as follows:<\/h3>\n
      \n
    • \n

      A significant increase in serum gastrin levels among Qat chewers.\u200e<\/h3>\n<\/li>\n
    • \n

      A decrease in triglyceride levels.\u200e<\/h3>\n<\/li>\n
    • \n

      A positive correlation between ghrelin levels and both age and cholesterol levels.\u200e<\/h3>\n<\/li>\n
    • \n

      Qat chewers were more likely to exhibit elevated serum gastrin levels and lower \u200etriglyceride levels.\u200e<\/h3>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

      In light of these findings, the researcher recommended the following:\u200e<\/h3>\n
        \n
      • \n

        Conducting further studies involving larger samples of adult Yemeni males and \u200e\u200e<\/h3>\n<\/li>\n
      • \n

        Carrying out future research to investigate other gastrointestinal hormones.\u200e<\/h3>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

        The defense session was attended by a number of academics, researchers, students, colleagues, and the researcher\u2019s family.<\/h3>\n
