… This research found that of the organizations using program evaluation, most do conduct outcome evaluations. Agency leaders say … program and to see how the program is doing. Almost all of them indicated that one planned use of...

Adolescent Male Conduct-Disordered Patients in Substance Use Disorder Treatment: Examining the "Limited Prosocial Emotions" Specifier.

Journal of child & adolescent substance abuse

Sakai JT, Mikulich-Gilbertson SK, Young SE, Rhee SH, McWilliams SK, Dunn R, Salomonsen-Sautel S, Thurstone C, Hopfer CJ.
PMID: 28979087
J Child Adolesc Subst Abuse. 2016;25(6):613-625. doi: 10.1080/1067828X.2016.1175983. Epub 2016 Jun 16.

To our knowledge, this is the first study to examine the DSM-5-defined conduct disorder (CD) with limited prosocial emotions (LPE) among adolescents in substance use disorder (SUD) treatment, despite the high rates of CD in this population. We tested...

RAS pathway biomarkers for breast cancer prognosis.

Clinical laboratory international

Siewertsz van Reesema LL, Lee MP, Zheleva V, Winston JS, O'Connor CF, Perry RR, Hoefer RA, Tang AH.
PMID: 28579913
Clin Lab Int. 2016 Nov;40:18-23.

Metastatic breast cancer is a highly heterogeneous, rapidly evolving and devastating disease that challenges our ability to find curative therapies. RAS pathway activation is an understudied research area in breast cancer. EGFR/RAS pathway activation is prevalent in breast cancer...

Unique and interactive effects of impulsivity facets on reckless driving and driving under the influence in a high-risk young adult sample.

Personality and individual differences

Luk JW, Trim RS, Karyadi KA, Curry I, Hopfer CJ, Hewitt JK, Stallings MC, Brown SA, Wall TL.
PMID: 29038610
Pers Individ Dif. 2017 Aug 01;114:42-47. doi: 10.1016/j.paid.2017.03.048. Epub 2017 Jan 30.

Risky driving behaviors are disproportionately high among young adults and impulsivity is a robust risk factor. Recent conceptualizations have proposed multidimensional facets of impulsivity comprised of negative urgency, premeditation, perseverance, sensation seeking, and positive urgency (UPPS-P model). Prior studies...

Human Behavior: Sleep in Hunter-Gatherer Societies.

Current biology : CB

Peever J, Horner RL.
PMID: 26654373
Curr Biol. 2015 Dec 07;25(23):R1133-5. doi: 10.1016/j.cub.2015.10.012.

How much would we sleep if we lived without the pressures and distractions associated with industrialized lifestyles? New research shows that hunter-gatherer societies sleep for 6-7 hours a night--a level similar to industrialized societies.

Thermo-optical characterization of fluorescent rhodamine B based temperature-sensitive nanosensors using a CMOS MEMS micro-hotplate.

Sensors and actuators. B, Chemical

Chauhan VM, Hopper RH, Ali SZ, King EM, Udrea F, Oxley CH, Aylott JW.
PMID: 25844025
Sens Actuators B Chem. 2014 Mar 01;192:126-133. doi: 10.1016/j.snb.2013.10.042.

A custom designed microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) micro-hotplate, capable of operating at high temperatures (up to 700 °C), was used to thermo-optically characterize fluorescent temperature-sensitive nanosensors. The nanosensors, 550 nm in diameter, are composed of temperature-sensitive rhodamine B (RhB) fluorophore...

High performance computing enabling exhaustive analysis of higher order single nucleotide polymorphism interaction in Genome Wide Association Studies.

Health information science and systems

Goudey B, Abedini M, Hopper JL, Inouye M, Makalic E, Schmidt DF, Wagner J, Zhou Z, Zobel J, Reumann M.
PMID: 25870758
Health Inf Sci Syst. 2015 Feb 24;3:S3. doi: 10.1186/2047-2501-3-S1-S3. eCollection 2015.

Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) are a common approach for systematic discovery of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) which are associated with a given disease. Univariate analysis approaches commonly employed may miss important SNP associations that only appear through multivariate analysis...

Decreased Susceptibility to Viral Disease of [beta]-1,3-Glucanase-Deficient Plants Generated by Antisense Transformation.

The Plant cell

Beffa RS, Hofer RM, Thomas M, Meins F.
PMID: 12239410
Plant Cell. 1996 Jun;8(6):1001-1011. doi: 10.1105/tpc.8.6.1001.

Antifungal class I [beta]-1,3-glucanases are believed to be part of the constitutive and induced defenses of plants against fungal infection. Unexpectedly, mutants deficient in these enzymes generated by antisense transformation showed markedly reduced lesion size, lesion number, and virus...

Measuring the refractive index of thin liquid films with a spectrometer.

Applied optics

Greco V, Hoffer L, Molesini G.
PMID: 18364792
Appl Opt. 2001 Oct 01;40(28):5111-3. doi: 10.1364/ao.40.005111.

We discuss the manufacture and use of a prism pair to measure the refractive index of thin liquid films with a spectrometer. The method requires only a drop of liquid and is accurate to ~2 x 10(-4).

Genetic factors in alcohol use-a genetic epidemiological perspective.

Drug and alcohol review

Hopper JL.
PMID: 16818352
Drug Alcohol Rev. 1994;13(4):375-84. doi: 10.1080/09595239400185501.

The purpose of this paper is to put a genetic epidemiological perspective on the role of genetic factors involved in the susceptibility and expression of alcohol use. The consequences of familial aggregation in a trait is explained, and the...

Streamlined sample preparation procedure for determination of perchlorate anion in foods by ion chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry.

Analytica chimica acta

Krynitsky AJ, Niemann RA, Williams AD, Hopper ML.
PMID: 17723384
