Impulsive delayed reward discounting as a genetically-influenced target for drug abuse prevention: a critical evaluation.

Frontiers in psychology

Gray JC, MacKillop J.
PMID: 26388788
Front Psychol. 2015 Sep 01;6:1104. doi: 10.3389/fpsyg.2015.01104. eCollection 2015.

This review evaluates the viability of delayed reward discounting (DRD), an index of how much an individual devalues a future reward based on its delay in time, for genetically-informed drug abuse prevention. A review of the literature suggests that...

Comparing effectiveness with efficacy: outcomes of palliative chemotherapy for non-small-cell lung cancer in routine practice.

Current oncology (Toronto, Ont.)

Harrison LD, Zhang-Salomons J, Mates M, Booth CM, King WD, Mackillop WJ.
PMID: 26089717
Curr Oncol. 2015 Jun;22(3):184-91. doi: 10.3747/co.22.2419.

INTRODUCTION: Randomized controlled trials (rcts) are the "gold standard" for establishing treatment efficacy; however, efficacy does not automatically translate to a comparable level of effectiveness in routine practice. Our objectives were to □ describe outcomes of palliative platinum-doublet chemotherapy...

Initial Development of a Brief Behavioral Economic Assessment of Alcohol Demand.

Psychology of consciousness (Washington, D.C.)

Owens MM, Murphy CM, MacKillop J.
PMID: 27135038
Psychol Conscious (Wash D C). 2015 Jun;2(2):144-152. doi: 10.1037/cns0000056.

Due to difficulties with definition and measurement, the role of conscious craving in substance use disorders remains contentious. To address this, behavioral economics is increasingly being used to quantify aspects of an individual's acute motivation to use a substance....

Pregnancy and ketoacidosis: Is pancreatitis a missing link?.

Obstetric medicine

Frise CJ, Ashcroft A, Jones BA, Mackillop L.
PMID: 27512495
Obstet Med. 2016 Jun;9(2):60-3. doi: 10.1177/1753495X15612330. Epub 2015 Nov 30.

Non-diabetic ketoacidosis is increasingly recognised in pregnancy, particularly during the third trimester, and is usually associated with vomiting. In many cases, the cause of the vomiting is not identified and resolves rapidly, alongside the metabolic abnormalities, following delivery. Here,...

A major photoperiod-sensitivity gene tagged with RFLP and isozyme markers in rice.

TAG. Theoretical and applied genetics. Theoretische und angewandte Genetik

Mackill DJ, Salam MA, Wang ZY, Tanksley SD.
PMID: 24195926
Theor Appl Genet. 1993 Jan;85(5):536-40. doi: 10.1007/BF00220910.

Photoperiod-sensitive rice (Oryza sativa L.) cultivars are widely grown in rainfed lowland areas with unfavorable water regimes. A molecular marker for the trait would be useful in genetic and physiological studies and in developing improved photoperiod-sensitive cultivars. Previous genetic...

Practical issues in assisting shared decision-making.

Health expectations : an international journal of public participation in health care and health policy

Feldman-Stewart D, Brundage MD, McConnell BA, MacKillop WJ.
PMID: 11281911
Health Expect. 2000 Mar;3(1):46-54. doi: 10.1046/j.1369-6513.2000.00082.x.

To facilitate treatment decision-making, one aims to provide information, present it in a way that makes it as easy as possible to understand, and to help the decision-maker through the cognitive processes that result in a treatment decision. Decision...

The Role of Genetics in Nicotine Dependence: Mapping the Pathways from Genome to Syndrome.

Current cardiovascular risk reports

Mackillop J, Obasi E, Amlung MT, McGeary JE, Knopik VS.
PMID: 21686075
Curr Cardiovasc Risk Rep. 2010 Nov;4(6):446-453. doi: 10.1007/s12170-010-0132-6.

Nicotine dependence continues to be a major public health problem worldwide and there is unequivocal evidence that genetics play a substantial role in its etiology. This review provides an overview of the evidence for genetic influences and recent advances...

Prevalence of small-scale jets from the networks of the solar transition region and chromosphere.

Science (New York, N.Y.)

Tian H, DeLuca EE, Cranmer SR, De Pontieu B, Peter H, Martínez-Sykora J, Golub L, McKillop S, Reeves KK, Miralles MP, McCauley P, Saar S, Testa P, Weber M, Murphy N, Lemen J, Title A, Boerner P, Hurlburt N, Tarbell TD, Wuelser JP, Kleint L, Kankelborg C, Jaeggli S, Carlsson M, Hansteen V, McIntosh SW.
PMID: 25324395
Science. 2014 Oct 17;346(6207):1255711. doi: 10.1126/science.1255711.

As the interface between the Sun's photosphere and corona, the chromosphere and transition region play a key role in the formation and acceleration of the solar wind. Observations from the Interface Region Imaging Spectrograph reveal the prevalence of intermittent...

Evidence of nonthermal particles in coronal loops heated impulsively by nanoflares.

Science (New York, N.Y.)

Testa P, De Pontieu B, Allred J, Carlsson M, Reale F, Daw A, Hansteen V, Martinez-Sykora J, Liu W, DeLuca EE, Golub L, McKillop S, Reeves K, Saar S, Tian H, Lemen J, Title A, Boerner P, Hurlburt N, Tarbell TD, Wuelser JP, Kleint L, Kankelborg C, Jaeggli S.

The physical processes causing energy exchange between the Sun's hot corona and its cool lower atmosphere remain poorly understood. The chromosphere and transition region (TR) form an interface region between the surface and the corona that is highly sensitive...

Delayed Reward Discounting and Alcohol Misuse: The Roles of Response Consistency and Reward Magnitude.

Journal of experimental psychopathology

Amlung M, MacKillop J.
PMID: 25191534
J Exp Psychopathol. 2011;2(3):418-431.

Delayed reward discounting (DRD) is a common index of impulsivity that refers to an individual's devaluation of rewards based on delay of receipt and has been linked to alcohol misuse and other maladaptive behaviors. The current study investigated response...
