Tracy E. Madsen,D. Leann Long,April P. Carson,George Howard,Dawn Kleindorfer,Karen L. Furie,JoAnn E. Manson,Simin Liu,Virginia J. Howard +8 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigate sex and race differences in the association between fasting blood glucose (FBG) and risk of ischemic stroke (IS) and use Cox proportional hazards to assess the adjusted sex/race-specific associations between FBG and incident IS.
Journal ArticleDOI

Marcella H Sorg,D. Leann Long,Marie A. Abate,James A. Kaplan,James C. Kraner,Margaret Greenwald,Thomas A. Andrew,Steven L. Shapiro,Jamie A Wren +8 more
TL;DR: Fentanyl concentrations seemed to be the least associated with the presence or absence of the variables studied, and cointoxicant alcohol appeared to be associated with lower concentrations in opioid concentrations than were most of the other factors in the model studied.
Journal ArticleDOI
Association of Graduated Driver Licensing With Driver, Non-Driver, and Total Fatalities Among Adolescents
TL;DR: In general, graduated driver licensing systems were not associated with increased fatalities as passengers, pedestrians, bicyclists, and bus riders, and were associated with reduced total fatalities of adolescents aged 16 years.
Journal ArticleDOI
C-Reactive Protein and Incident Hypertension in Black and White Americans in the REasons for Geographic And Racial Differences in Stroke (REGARDS) Cohort Study.
Timothy B Plante,D. Leann Long,Boyi Guo,George Howard,April P. Carson,Virginia J. Howard,Suzanne E. Judd,Nancy S. Jenny,Neil A. Zakai,Mary Cushman +9 more
TL;DR: Elevated CRP attenuated a portion of the unadjusted excess risk of hypertension in black adults, but this excess risk was attenuated when controlling for measures of obesity in females and diet and socioeconomic factors in males.
Journal ArticleDOI
Dietary Inflammatory Index (DII) is Associated with Movement-Evoked Pain Severity in Adults with Chronic Low Back Pain: Sociodemographic Differences.
Larissa J Strath,Andrew M Sims,Demario S Overstreet,Terence M Penn,Rahm Bakshi,Brooke Stansel,Tammie Quinn,Robert E. Sorge,D. Leann Long,Burel R. Goodin +9 more
TL;DR: In this paper , the authors investigated the relationship between Dietary Inflammatory Index (DII) and movement evoked-pain severity in people with chronic low back pain and investigated whether race/sex moderated the relationship of DII and movement-evoked pain.
