Journal ArticleDOI

Impaired IRS-1/PI3-kinase signaling in patients with HCV: a mechanism for increased prevalence of type 2 diabetes.

TL;DR: It is found that HCV infection leads to a postreceptor defect in IRS‐1 association with the IR and insulin signaling defects in hepatic IRS‐ 1 tyrosine phosphorylation and PI3‐kinase association/activation may contribute to insulin resistance, which leads to the development of type 2 diabetes mellitus in patients withHCV infection.
Journal ArticleDOI

Early postnatal dexamethasone treatment and increased incidence of cerebral palsy

TL;DR: Logistic regression analysis showed both periventricular leucomalacia and drug assignment to dexamethasone to be highly significant predictors of abnormal neurological outcome.
Journal ArticleDOI

Mapping Multiple Sclerosis Susceptibility to the HLA-DR Locus in African Americans

TL;DR: A selective association with HLA-DRB1*15 was revealed, indicating a primary role for the DRB1 locus in MS independent of DQB1*0602, and is unlikely to be solely explained by admixture, since a substantial proportion of the susceptibility chromosomes from African American patients with MS displayed haplotypes consistent with an African origin.
Journal ArticleDOI

Human genome sequence variation and the influence of gene history, mutation and recombination.

TL;DR: The results are best explained by extreme variability in the recombination rate at a fine scale, and provide the first empirical evidence that such recombination 'hot spots' are a general feature of the human genome and have a principal role in shaping genetic variation in the human population.
