Characteristics of abdominal vein thrombosis in children and adults.
(Thromb Haemost, 2013-04)
The demographic and clinical characteristics of adults and children with lower extremity
deep-vein thrombosis and/or pulmonary embolism (LE DVT/PE) may differ from those with
abdominal vein thrombosis (abdominal VT). Abdominal ...
Gender and age interact to affect early outcome after intracerebral hemorrhage.
(PLoS One, 2013)
BACKGROUND: Intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) is a common and devastating form of cerebrovascular
disease. In ICH, gender differences in outcomes remain relatively understudied but
have been examined in other neurological ...
Gene expression-based classifiers identify Staphylococcus aureus infection in mice and humans.
(PLoS One, 2013)
Staphylococcus aureus causes a spectrum of human infection. Diagnostic delays and
uncertainty lead to treatment delays and inappropriate antibiotic use. A growing literature
suggests the host's inflammatory response to the ...
Delays in appropriate antibiotic therapy for gram-negative bloodstream infections: a multicenter, community hospital study.
(PLoS One, 2013)
BACKGROUND: Gram-negative bacterial bloodstream infection (BSI) is a serious condition
with estimated 30% mortality. Clinical outcomes for patients with severe infections
improve when antibiotics are appropriately chosen ...
Comorbid substance use disorders with other Axis I and II mental disorders among treatment-seeking Asian Americans, Native Hawaiians/Pacific Islanders, and mixed-race people.
(Journal of psychiatric research, 2013-12)
Little is known about behavioral healthcare needs of Asian Americans (AAs), Native
Hawaiians/Pacific Islanders (NHs/PIs), and mixed-race people (MRs)-the fastest growing
segments of the U.S. population. We examined substance ...
A randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial of pramipexole augmentation in treatment-resistant major depressive disorder.
(The Journal of clinical psychiatry, 2013-07)
<h4>Background</h4>Multiple treatments for patients with major depressive disorder
(MDD) have demonstrated efficacy, but up to one-third of individuals with MDD do not
achieve symptomatic remission despite various interventions. ...
TGFβ1 Polymorphisms Predict Distant Metastasis-Free Survival in Patients with Inoperable Non-Small-Cell Lung Cancer after Definitive Radiotherapy.
(PloS one, 2013-01)
Transforming growth factor (TGF) -β1 signaling is involved in cancer-cell metastasis.
We investigated whether single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) at TGFβ1 were associated
with overall survival (OS) and distant metastasis-free ...
Association between a rare novel TP53 variant (rs78378222) and melanoma, squamous cell carcinoma of head and neck and lung cancer susceptibility in non-Hispanic Whites.
(Journal of cellular and molecular medicine, 2013-07)
Recently, several studies have investigated the association between a newly reported
rare functional single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) in TP53 (rs78378222) and cancer
risk, but generated inconsistent findings. The present ...
