Diet-induced obesity differentially regulates behavioral, biomechanical, and molecular risk factors for osteoarthritis in mice.
(Arthritis Res Ther, 2010)
INTRODUCTION: Obesity is a major risk factor for the development of osteoarthritis
in both weight-bearing and nonweight-bearing joints. The mechanisms by which obesity
influences the structural or symptomatic features of ...
Implementation and randomized controlled trial evaluation of universal postnatal nurse home visiting.
(Am J Public Health, 2014-02)
OBJECTIVES: We evaluated whether a brief, universal, postnatal nurse home-visiting
intervention can be implemented with high penetration and fidelity, prevent emergency
health care services, and promote positive parenting ...
Differential developmental trajectories of magnetic susceptibility in human brain gray and white matter over the lifespan.
(Hum Brain Mapp, 2014-06)
As indicated by several recent studies, magnetic susceptibility of the brain is influenced
mainly by myelin in the white matter and by iron deposits in the deep nuclei. Myelination
and iron deposition in the brain evolve ...
Amygdala-prefrontal cortex functional connectivity during threat-induced anxiety and goal distraction.
(Biol Psychiatry, 2015-02-15)
BACKGROUND: Anxiety produced by environmental threats can impair goal-directed processing
and is associated with a range of psychiatric disorders, particularly when aversive
events occur unpredictably. The prefrontal cortex ...
What Do North American Babies Hear? A large-scale cross-corpus analysis.
(Developmental science, 2019-01)
A range of demographic variables influences how much speech young children hear. However,
because studies have used vastly different sampling methods, quantitative comparison
of interlocking demographic effects has been ...
Fear learning circuitry is biased toward generalization of fear associations in posttraumatic stress disorder.
(Transl Psychiatry, 2015-12-15)
Fear conditioning is an established model for investigating posttraumatic stress disorder
(PTSD). However, symptom triggers may vaguely resemble the initial traumatic event,
differing on a variety of sensory and affective ...
Joint eQTL assessment of whole blood and dura mater tissue from individuals with Chiari type I malformation.
(BMC Genomics, 2015-01-22)
BACKGROUND: Expression quantitative trait loci (eQTL) play an important role in the
regulation of gene expression. Gene expression levels and eQTLs are expected to vary
from tissue to tissue, and therefore multi-tissue analyses ...
Cardiorespiratory fitness and cognitive function in midlife: neuroprotection or neuroselection?
(Ann Neurol, 2015-04)
OBJECTIVE: A study was undertaken to determine whether better cognitive functioning
at midlife among more physically fit individuals reflects neuroprotection, by which
fitness protects against age-related cognitive decline, ...
Psychiatric correlates of snuff and chewing tobacco use.
(PLoS One, 2014)
Compared to the association between cigarette smoking and psychiatric disorders, relatively
little is known about the relationship between smokeless tobacco use and psychiatric
disorders. To identify the psychiatric correlates ...
Preschool anxiety disorders predict different patterns of amygdala-prefrontal connectivity at school-age.
(PLoS One, 2015)
OBJECTIVE: In this prospective, longitudinal study of young children, we examined
whether a history of preschool generalized anxiety, separation anxiety, and/or social
phobia is associated with amygdala-prefrontal dysregulation ...
