Christopher W. Rowe,Christopher W. Rowe,A.S. Haider,D. Viswanathan,Mark Jones,John Attia,Katie Wynne,Katie Wynne,Shamasunder Acharya,Shamasunder Acharya +9 more
TL;DR: IR correlates with more severe retinopathy in young adults with Type 1DM, warranting further evaluation, and prospective studies examining whether reducing IR can improve microvascular complications are required.
Journal ArticleDOI
Deconfounding confounding part 1: traditional explanations.
TL;DR: No statistical method removes the effect of selection or measurement bias post hoc, although there are methods that allow us to model different degrees of bias and evaluate the effect on the measure of association.
Book ChapterDOI

Carlos Riveros,Renato Vimieiro,Elizabeth G. Holliday,Christopher Oldmeadow,Jie Jin Wang,Jie Jin Wang,Paul Mitchell,John Attia,Rodney J. Scott,Pablo Moscato +9 more
TL;DR: A methodology to uncover modularities in the network of SNP-SNP interactions most associated with disease by constructing a weighted graph of the most relevant interactions and via a combinatorial optimization approach, finding the most highly interconnected SNPs.
