PMID: 31092297
Hum Genomics. 2019 May 15;13(1):21. doi: 10.1186/s40246-019-0205-7.

BACKGROUND: End-stage kidney disease (ESKD) is a significant public health concern disproportionately affecting African Americans (AAs). Type 2 diabetes (T2D) is the leading cause of ESKD in the USA, and efforts to uncover genetic susceptibility to diabetic kidney disease...

Weight gain in infancy and early childhood is associated with school age body mass index but not intelligence and blood pressure in very low birth weight children.

Journal of developmental origins of health and disease

Washburn L, Nixon P, Snively B, Tennyson A, O'Shea TM.
PMID: 22962630
J Dev Orig Health Dis. 2010 Oct;1(5):338-46. doi: 10.1017/S2040174410000401.

Rates of weight gain in infancy and early childhood can influence later neurocognitive, metabolic and cardiovascular health. We studied the relationship of weight gain during infancy and early childhood to intelligence quotient (IQ), blood pressure (BP) and body mass...

Update on heart failure with preserved ejection fraction.

Current cardiovascular risk reports

Hummel SL, Kitzman DW.
PMID: 24860638
Curr Cardiovasc Risk Rep. 2013 Dec;7(6):495-502. doi: 10.1007/s12170-013-0350-9.

Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFPEF) is the most common form of heart failure (HF) in older adults, and is increasing in prevalence as the population ages. Morbidity and long-term mortality in HFPEF are substantial and can be...

Gestational age and birthweight for risk assessment of neurodevelopmental impairment or death in extremely preterm infants.

Archives of disease in childhood. Fetal and neonatal edition

Salas AA, Carlo WA, Ambalavanan N, Nolen TL, Stoll BJ, Das A, Higgins RD.
PMID: 26895876
Arch Dis Child Fetal Neonatal Ed. 2016 Nov;101(6):F494-F501. doi: 10.1136/archdischild-2015-309670. Epub 2016 Feb 19.

BACKGROUND: The risk of poor outcomes in preterm infants is primarily determined by birthweight (BW) and gestational age (GA). It is not known whether BW is a better outcome predictor than GA.OBJECTIVE: To test whether BW is better than...

Resurrecting brinley plots for a novel use: meta-analyses of functional brain imaging data in older adults.

International journal of biomedical imaging

Peiffer AM, Maldjian JA, Laurienti PJ.
PMID: 18274664
Int J Biomed Imaging. 2008;2008:167078. doi: 10.1155/2008/167078.

By plotting response times of young and older adults across a variety of tasks, Brinley spurred investigation and debate into the theory of general cognitive slowing. Though controversial, Brinley plots can assess between-task differences, the impact of increasing task...

Acute impact of moderate-intensity and vigorous-intensity exercise bouts on daily physical activity energy expenditure in postmenopausal women.

Journal of obesity

Wang X, Nicklas BJ.
PMID: 20847895
J Obes. 2011;2011. doi: 10.1155/2011/342431. Epub 2010 Aug 10.

This study determined whether performing a single moderate- or vigorous-intensity exercise bout impacts daily physical activity energy expenditure (PAEE, by accelerometer). Overweight/obese postmenopausal women underwent a 5-month caloric restriction and moderate- (n = 18) or vigorous-intensity (n = 18)...

Changes in cognitive state alter human functional brain networks.

Frontiers in human neuroscience

Moussa MN, Vechlekar CD, Burdette JH, Steen MR, Hugenschmidt CE, Laurienti PJ.

Front Hum Neurosci. 2011 Aug 22;5:83. doi: 10.3389/fnhum.2011.00083. eCollection 2011.

The study of the brain as a whole system can be accomplished using network theory principles. Research has shown that human functional brain networks during a resting state exhibit small-world properties and high degree nodes, or hubs, localized to...
