Sleep dysfunction in patients with cancer.

Current treatment options in neurology

Fiorentino L, Ancoli-Israel S.
PMID: 17716597
Curr Treat Options Neurol. 2007 Sep;9(5):337-46.

Sleep complaints are common in cancer patients. Insomnia is particularly a concern in this population. Although pharmacotherapy is the most prescribed treatment for sleep disturbances, there is evidence that cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) is an effective treatment for insomnia in...

Effects of Aerobic Fitness and Adiposity on Coagulation Biomarkers in Men vs. Women with Elevated Blood Pressure.

The European journal of cardiovascular medicine

Wilson KL, Tomfohr L, Edwards K, Knott C, Hong S, Redwine L, Calfas K, Rock CL, von Känel R, Mills PJ.
PMID: 23105963
Eur J Cardiovasc Med. 2012 Sep;2(2):122-128. Epub 2012 Sep 24.

A hypercoagulable state is a potential mechanism linking elevated blood pressure (BP), adiposity and a sedentary lifestyle to development of coronary heart disease (CHD). We examined relationships among aerobic fitness and adiposity in 76 sedentary subjects with elevated BP....

Individual cognitive behavioral therapy for insomnia in breast cancer survivors: a randomized controlled crossover pilot study.

Nature and science of sleep

Fiorentino L, McQuaid JR, Liu L, Natarajan L, He F, Cornejo M, Lawton S, Parker BA, Sadler GR, Ancoli-Israel S.
PMID: 23616695
Nat Sci Sleep. 2010 Dec 16;2:1-8. doi: 10.2147/nss.s8004. Print 2010.

PURPOSE: Estimates of insomnia in breast cancer patients are high, with reports of poor sleep lasting years after completion of cancer treatment. This randomized controlled crossover pilot study looked at the effects of individual cognitive behavioral therapy for insomnia...

USING PROFILE LIKELIHOOD FOR SEMIPARAMETRIC MODEL SELECTION WITH APPLICATION TO PROPORTIONAL HAZARDS MIXED MODELS.

Statistica Sinica

Xu R, Vaida F, Harrington DP.
PMID: 31762585
Stat Sin. 2009 Apr;19(2):819-842.

We consider selection of nested and non-nested semiparametric models. Using profile likelihood we can define both a likelihood ratio statistic and an Akaike information for models with nuisance parameters. Asymptotic quadratic expansion of the log profile likelihood allows derivation...

Exploring occupational and behavioral risk factors for obesity in firefighters: a theoretical framework and study design.

Safety and health at work

Choi B, Schnall P, Dobson M, Israel L, Landsbergis P, Galassetti P, Pontello A, Kojaku S, Baker D.

Effect of intensive blood pressure control on cardiovascular remodeling in hypertensive patients with nephrosclerosis.

International journal of nephrology

Randall O, Kwagyan J, Retta T, Jamerson K, Pogue V, Norris K, Ketete M, Xu S, Greene T, Wang X, Agodoa L.
PMID: 24102027
Int J Nephrol. 2013;2013:120167. doi: 10.1155/2013/120167. Epub 2013 Sep 11.

Pulse pressure (PP), a marker of arterial system properties, has been linked to cardiovascular (CV) complications. We examined (a) association between unit changes of PP and (i) composite CV outcomes and (ii) development of left-ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) and (b)...

Circadian polymorphisms associated with affective disorders.

Journal of circadian rhythms

Kripke DF, Nievergelt CM, Joo E, Shekhtman T, Kelsoe JR.
PMID: 19166596
J Circadian Rhythms. 2009 Jan 23;7:2. doi: 10.1186/1740-3391-7-2.

BACKGROUND: Clinical symptoms of affective disorders, their response to light treatment, and sensitivity to other circadian interventions indicate that the circadian system has a role in mood disorders. Possibly the mechanisms involve circadian seasonal and photoperiodic mechanisms. Since genetic...

Pediatric health

Barshop NJ, Francis CS, Schwimmer JB, Lavine JE.

Pilot study: rapidly cycling hypobaric pressure improves pain after 5 days in adiposis dolorosa.

Journal of pain research

Herbst KL, Rutledge T.
PMID: 21197318
J Pain Res. 2010 Aug 20;3:147-53. doi: 10.2147/JPR.S12351.

Adiposis dolorosa (AD) is a rare disorder of painful nodular subcutaneous fat accompanied by fatigue, difficulty with weight loss, inflammation, increased fluid in adipose tissue (lipedema and lymphedema), and hyperalgesia. Sequential compression relieves lymphedema pain; we therefore hypothesized that...
