Neurodevelopmental outcome at 1 year in Zimbabwean neonates with extreme hyperbilirubinaemia
TL;DR: The study concentrates on estimating the magnitude of the effect of a single risk factor, maximum total serum bilirubin in excess of 400 μmol/l (23.4 mg/dl), on the neurodevelopmental outcome of 50, singleton, Zimbabwean neonates at 1 year of age.
Journal ArticleDOI
Polymorphisms in the CNTF and CNTF receptor genes are associated with muscle strength in men and women
Gunther De Mars,An Windelinckx,Gaston Beunen,Christophe Delecluse,Johan Lefevre,Martine Thomis +5 more
TL;DR: Results indicate that CNTFR C-1703T and T1069A polymorphisms are significantly associated with muscle strength in humans.
Journal ArticleDOI
Gene powered? Where to go from heritability (h2) in muscle strength and power?
Gaston Beunen,Martine Thomis +1 more
TL;DR: The importance of genetic and environmental factors in muscular strength and power variation has been reported in the last two decades, but there is a paucity of data on gender- and age-specific estimates of heritabilities.
Journal ArticleDOI

Influence of chorionicity on the heritability estimates of blood pressure: a study in twins.
TL;DR: Heritability estimates of conventional and ambulatory blood pressure do not differ significantly according to the chorionicity of the monozygotic twins.
