Incidence of type 2 diabetes in the randomized multiple risk factor intervention trial.
George Davey Smith,Yiscah Bracha,Kenneth H. Svendsen,James D. Neaton,Steven M. Haffner,Lewis H. Kuller +5 more
TL;DR: The incidence of diabetes is compared in the intervention and control groups of the MRFIT, an unexpected subgroup finding related to baseline cigarette smoking status is reported, and reasons for the different results among smokers and nonsmokers are explored.
Journal ArticleDOI
The lower oesophageal sphincter and anaesthesia
B.R. Cotton,George Davey Smith +1 more
TL;DR: It was shown in 1970 that the frequency of regurgitation had decreased to 7.8% and of this number, 8.6% of patients had aspirated, so it is of vital importance that anaesthetists are aware of the effect of the drugs which they use on the LOS.
Journal ArticleDOI
Solving the Graphical Steiner Tree Problem Using Genetic Algorithms
TL;DR: A genetic algorithm to solve the Steiner Minimal Tree problem in graphs with standard set of graph problems used extensively in the comparison of Steiner tree algorithms has been solved using the resulting algorithm.
Journal ArticleDOI
Nanoscale characterisation of ODS–Eurofer 97 steel: An atom-probe tomography study
TL;DR: In this article, a core/shell structure was found for particles 5-10nm in diameter for the ODS-Eurofer 97 alloy, where the particle cores were primarily Y and O, enriched with Mn and Si resulting in a metal to oxygen ratio of M:O 2:3.
Journal ArticleDOI
Inequalities in premature mortality in Britain: observational study from 1921 to 2007
TL;DR: Comparison of crudely age-sex standardised rates for those below age 65 from historical records showed that geographical inequalities in mortality are higher in the most recent decade than in any similar time period for which records are available since at least 1921.
