Impact of the periconceptional environment on the programming of adult disease.

Journal of developmental origins of health and disease

Watkins AJ, Lucas ES, Fleming TP.
PMID: 25143062
J Dev Orig Health Dis. 2010 Apr;1(2):87-95. doi: 10.1017/S2040174409990195.

The periconceptional period of mammalian development has been identified as an early 'developmental window' during which environmental conditions may influence the pattern of future growth and physiology. Studies in humans and animal models have revealed that factors such as...

Transillumination and reflectance probes for .

Proceedings of SPIE--the International Society for Optical Engineering

Simon JC, Lucas SA, Staninec M, Tom H, Chan KH, Darling CL, Fried D.
PMID: 24817803
Proc SPIE Int Soc Opt Eng. 2014 Feb 18;8929:89290D. doi: 10.1117/12.2045630.

Previous studies have demonstrated the utility of near infrared (NIR) imaging for caries detection employing transillumination and reflectance imaging geometries. Three intra-oral NIR imaging probes were fabricated for the acquisition of

Symmetry and transitivity of conditional relations in monkeys (Cebus apella) and pigeons (Columba livia).

Journal of the experimental analysis of behavior

D'Amato MR, Salmon DP, Loukas E, Tomie A.
PMID: 16812425
J Exp Anal Behav. 1985 Jul;44(1):35-47. doi: 10.1901/jeab.1985.44-35.

In Experiment 1 six monkeys were tested with discriminative relations that were backward relative to their training in a 0-second conditional ("symbolic") matching procedure. Although there was some indication of backward associations, the evidence was generally weak, and statistical...

Phenytoin dose adjustment in epileptic patients.

British journal of clinical pharmacology

Mawer GE, Mullen PW, Rodgers M, Robins AJ, Lucas SB.
PMID: 22454904
Br J Clin Pharmacol. 1974 Apr;1(2):163-8. doi: 10.1111/j.1365-2125.1974.tb00226.x.

1 A preliminary survey showed that many outpatients with partially controlled epilepsy had serum concentrations of phenytoin below the recommended therapeutic range (10-20 μg/ml). A phenytoin tolerance test was devised with the intention of predicting a more adequate daily...

Cognitive determinants of affective forecasting errors.

Judgment and decision making

Hoerger M, Quirk SW, Lucas RE, Carr TH.
PMID: 21912580
Judgm Decis Mak. 2010 Aug;5(5):365-373.

Often to the detriment of human decision making, people are prone to an impact bias when making affective forecasts, overestimating the emotional consequences of future events. The cognitive processes underlying the impact bias, and methods for correcting it, have...

Unemployment alters the set point for life satisfaction.

Psychological science

Lucas RE, Clark AE, Georgellis Y, Diener E.
PMID: 14717825
Psychol Sci. 2004 Jan;15(1):8-13. doi: 10.1111/j.0963-7214.2004.01501002.x.

According to set-point theories of subjective well-being, people react to events but then return to baseline levels of happiness and satisfaction over time. We tested this idea by examining reaction and adaptation to unemployment in a 15-year longitudinal study...

Systemic BCG-Osis as a Rare Side Effect of Intravesical BCG Treatment for Superficial Bladder Cancer.

Case reports in urology

Lukacs S, Tschobotko B, Szabo NA, Symes A.
PMID: 23844314
Case Rep Urol. 2013;2013:821526. doi: 10.1155/2013/821526. Epub 2013 Jun 17.

Intravesical Bacilli Calmette-Guérin (BCG) immunotherapy is a commonly used treatment for superficial bladder cancer. Although the treatment is well tolerated in 95% of cases, life-threatening side effects including BCG sepsis can occur. This report describes the case of an...

Antiandrogen pretreatment alters cocaine pharmacokinetics in men.

Journal of addiction medicine

Yamamoto RT, Teter CJ, Barros TL, McCarthy E, Mileti C, Juliano T, Medeiros CL, Looby A, Maywalt MA, McNeil JF, Olson D, Mallya G, Lukas SE, Renshaw PF, Kaufman MJ.
PMID: 21768958
J Addict Med. 2007 Dec;1(4):198-204. doi: 10.1097/ADM.0b013e31815a137c.

Among cocaine users, men experience more adverse brain and vascular effects than their female counterparts. This could be caused by testosterone, which may potentiate some of cocaine's effects. We examined whether antiandrogen (flutamide, FL) pretreatment alters cocaine's acute behavioral,...

The cerebrovascular response to graded Valsalva maneuvers while standing.

Physiological reports

Perry BG, Mündel T, Cochrane DJ, Cotter JD, Lucas SJ.
PMID: 24744902
Physiol Rep. 2014 Feb 10;2(2):e00233. doi: 10.1002/phy2.233. eCollection 2014 Feb 01.

The Valsalva maneuver (VM) produces large and abrupt increases in mean arterial pressure (MAP) at the onset of strain (Phase I), however, hypotension, sufficient to induce syncope, occurs upon VM release (phase III). We examined the effect of VM...

Does Personality Moderate Reaction and Adaptation to Major Life Events? Evidence from the British Household Panel Survey.

Journal of research in personality

Yap SC, Anusic I, Lucas RE.
PMID: 23049147
J Res Pers. 2012 Oct 01;46(5):477-488. doi: 10.1016/j.jrp.2012.05.005. Epub 2012 May 17.

A nationally representative panel study of British households was used to examine the extent to which Big Five personality traits interact with the experience of major life events (marriage, childbirth, unemployment, and widowhood) to predict increases and decreases in...

Multicenter reliability of semiautomatic retinal layer segmentation using OCT.
