Biography and Research Information

OverviewAI-generated summary

Murad Almasri's research focuses on the impact of COVID-19 on surgical patients and outcomes, particularly in the context of cancer surgery. He has led and contributed to several international cohort studies investigating mortality and pulmonary complications in patients with perioperative SARS-CoV-2 infection. His work has also examined the effects of COVID-19 pandemic lockdowns on planned cancer surgeries and explored the use of machine learning for risk prediction in these patients.

Almasri's publications include studies on global variations in postoperative mortality after cancer surgery and mortality from gastrointestinal congenital anomalies across different income countries. He has also investigated preoperative testing strategies and the delay of surgery for patients with prior SARS-CoV-2 infection. His research network includes collaborators such as Dala Zakaria, Joshua Daily, Markus S. Renno, and Krittika Joshi, all affiliated with the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences, with whom he has co-authored multiple publications.
