Journal ArticleDOI

The impact of 13-valent pneumococcal conjugate vaccination on virus-associated community-acquired pneumonia in elderly: Exploratory analysis of the CAPiTA trial

TL;DR: In a randomized study of 84 496 elderly individuals with a high uptake of influenza vaccination, PCV13 was not associated with a statistically significant reduction of influenza or virus-associated CAP.
Journal ArticleDOI

Completeness of carotid intima media thickness measurements depends on body composition: the RADIANCE 1 and 2 trials.

TL;DR: With the current ultrasound protocols it is possible to obtain a very high level of completeness in CIMT measurements and its relation with vascular risk factors, and segment-specific data indicated that in FH patients, completeness was less for the near wall of the left and right internal carotid artery as compared to other segments.
Journal ArticleDOI

RCTs and observational studies to determine the effect of prophylaxis in severe haemophilia.

TL;DR: It has been suggested that more RCTs should be conducted in the evaluation of haemophilia treatment, including prophylaxis, because special efforts should be made to achieve comparability of prognosis, that is, to avoid ‘confounding by indication’.
Journal ArticleDOI

The angiotensinogen gene M235T polymorphism and development of preeclampsia/eclampsia: a meta-analysis and meta-regression of observational studies.

TL;DR: A meta-analysis expands the findings on hypertension by showing that the presence of the T allele of the angiotensinogen gene is associated with an increased risk to develop preeclampsia/eClampsia.
Journal ArticleDOI

Alcohol and arterial wave reflections in middle aged and elderly men.

TL;DR: This study investigates the relation of alcohol consumption with AIx in a population‐based cohort of men aged 40–80 years and finds a U‐shaped relationship with a protective effect of moderate alcohol consumption.
