Background: The dimensionality of depression and anxiety instruments have recently been a source of controversy. Objectives and Design: In a European-wide sample of patients after Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI), we aim to examine...
An investigation into the possible causes of childhood cancer has been carried out throughout England, Scotland and Wales over the period 1991-1998. All children known to be suffering from one or other type of the disease over...
Recent single-center retrospective analysis displayed the association between admission computed tomography (CT) markers of diffuse intracranial injury and worse cerebrovascular reactivity. The goal of this study was to further...
BACKGROUND: iPrevent is an online breast cancer (BC) risk management decision support tool. It uses an internal switching algorithm, based on a woman's risk factor data, to estimate her absolute BC risk using either the...
PURPOSE: To evaluate the association between a previously published 313 variant-based breast cancer (BC) polygenic risk score (PRS313) and contralateral breast cancer (CBC) risk, in BRCA1 and BRCA2 pathogenic variant...
BACKGROUND: We aimed to investigate the extent of the agreement on practices around brain death and postmortem organ donation. METHODS: Investigators from 67 Collaborative European NeuroTrauma Effectiveness Research in Traumatic...
BACKGROUND: The association between body mass index (BMI) and risk of breast cancer depends on time of life, but it is unknown whether this association depends on a woman's familial risk. METHODS: We conducted a prospective...
BACKGROUND: Height and body mass index (BMI) are associated with higher ovarian cancer risk in the general population, but whether such associations exist among BRCA1/2 mutation carriers is unknown. METHODS: We applied a...
Fire investigators have been able to gain access to the building to begin their investigation. Winthrop officials are working to begin restoration to Bancroft Hall, Kinard Hall and the area outside the buildings.
Germline genetic variation has been suggested to influence the survival of breast cancer patients independently of tumor pathology. We have studied survival associations of genetic variants in two etiologically unique groups of...
Little Brain Big Brain is a biannual meeting organized and attended by young investigators. Since its inception in 1989, this meeting has brought together promising junior researchers in neurogastroenterology. The XVIIth meeting...
The fire started outside the building on a small section of flat roof located where Owens Hall and Bancroft Annex join. Fire investigators reviewed and ruled out the mechanical room, HVAC and elevator systems.
IMPORTANCE: The limited data on cancer phenotypes in men with germline BRCA1 and BRCA2 pathogenic variants (PVs) have hampered the development of evidence-based recommendations for early cancer detection and risk reduction in...
For most conservation interventions, insufficient evidence exists for investigators to be able to conduct a meta-analysis for each species or genus. However, by being apprised of studies that examine how a particular...
Unmanned aerial vehicles (drones) have gained increased popularity as their innovative uses continue to expand across various fields. Despite their numerous beneficial uses, drones have unfortunately been misused, through many...
OBJECTIVE: Thiopurines are widely used as maintenance therapy in inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) but the evidence base for their use is sparse and their role increasingly questioned. Using the largest series reported to date...
BACKGROUND: Studies evaluating titration of antihypertensive medication using self-monitoring give contradictory findings and the precise place of telemonitoring over self-monitoring alone is unclear. The TASMINH4 trial aimed to...
