Genetic Association of Refractive Error and Axial Length with 15q14 but Not 15q25 in the Blue Mountains Eye Study Cohort
Maria Schache,Andrea J. Richardson,Paul Mitchell,Jie Jin Wang,Jie Jin Wang,Elena Rochtchina,Ananth C. Viswanathan,Tien Yin Wong,Tien Yin Wong,Seang-Mei Saw,Fotis Topouzis,Jing Xie,Xueling Sim,Elizabeth G. Holliday,John Attia,Rodney J. Scott,Rodney J. Scott,Paul N. Baird +17 more
TL;DR: Ocular biometric analysis revealed that axial length was the most likely trait underlying the refractive error association at the 15q14 locus, underscoring the importance of this locus in myopia and future clinical treatment.
Journal ArticleDOI

M. Al-Omary,Allan Davies,Tiffany-Jane Evans,Bruce Bastian,Peter J. Fletcher,John Attia,John Attia,Andrew J. Boyle,Andrew J. Boyle +8 more
TL;DR: This first systematic review to estimate the mortality and readmission rates after hospitalisation for HF in the Australian population found heart failure hospitalisations in Australia are followed by substantial readmission and mortality rates.
Journal ArticleDOI
Development of thyroid diseases in the treatment of chronic hepatitis C with α‐interferon may be a good prognosticator in achieving a sustained virological response: A meta‐analysis
TL;DR: The present study investigated whether thyroid dysfunction while undergoing combination treatment for hepatitis C is a favorable prognostic maker for a sustained virological response.
Journal ArticleDOI
Maternal Dietary Intake of Folate and Vitamins B6 and B12 During Pregnancy and Risk of Childhood Brain Tumors
Kathryn R. Greenop,Margaret Miller,Nicholas de Klerk,Rodney J. Scott,John Attia,Lesley J. Ashton,Luciano Dalla-Pozza,Carol Bower,Bruce K. Armstrong,Elizabeth Milne +9 more
TL;DR: Dietary intake of B6 and B12 was not associated with risk of CBT, consistent with folate's crucial role in maintenance of genomic integrity and DNA methylation.
Journal ArticleDOI
The relationship between higher blood pressure and ischaemic, haemorrhagic stroke among Chinese and Caucasians: meta-analysis:
TL;DR: The risk of stroke associated with hypertension is consistently and significantly greater in Chinese than Caucasians, which may help genetic epidemiologists to dissect the cause of stroke, and emphasizes the particular importance of hypertension control in the Chinese population.
