An improved method to recover saliva from human skin: the double swab technique.

TL;DR: The double swab technique showed the highest percentage recovery of saliva from human skin among the three methods studied, and is suggested as an improvement over the classical single wet cotton Swab technique.
Journal ArticleDOI

Serum bone alkaline phosphatase levels enhance the clinical utility of prostate specific antigen in the staging of newly diagnosed prostate cancer patients.

TL;DR: It is suggested that serum BAP levels could play a complementary role in the diagnosis of bone metastasis in prostate cancer patients and the addition of this marker to PSA in the initial evaluation could permit staging bone scan to be avoided at a PSA range of 10–20 ng/ml, with significant implications for cost saving.
Journal ArticleDOI

The risk for depression conferred by stressful life events is modified by variation at the serotonin transporter 5HTTLPR genotype: evidence from the Spanish PREDICT-Gene cohort

TL;DR: Results from the PREDICT-Gene case-control study nested in a prospective cohort designed to identify predictors of the onset of depression among adult primary-care attendees showed that s/s homozygous participants required minimal exposure to TLE (1 TLE) to acquire a level of risk for depression that was only found among l/s or l/l individuals after significantly higher exposure toTLEs (two or more TLEs).
