Journal ArticleDOI

Socio-economic disparities in preterm birth: causal pathways and mechanisms.

TL;DR: Improved understanding of the factors and processes that mediate social disparities in preterm birth should help not only in developing strategies to reduce the disparities but also in suggesting preventive interventions applicable across the entire socio-economic spectrum.
Journal ArticleDOI

A novel method using hair for determining hormonal levels in wildlife

TL;DR: Comparative tools for hormonal analysis provide insights into evolu-tionary theories based on behavioural aspects, such as productive suppression and the ‘challenge hypothesis’, and provides the resolution needed for studies of main behavioural trends, especially in stablehierarchical social systems.
Journal ArticleDOI

Comparison of oral iron chelator L1 and desferrioxamine in iron-loaded patients

TL;DR: Study in dogs and in volunteers showed no absorption of the L1-iron complex, excluding a contribution of absorption of intraluminal complexes of L1 and food iron to urinary iron excretion, and Pharmacokinetic studies showed an elimination half-life for L1 of 117-237 min.
Journal ArticleDOI

Systemic exposure to mercaptopurine as a prognostic factor in acute lymphocytic leukemia in children.

TL;DR: Low systemic exposure to oral mercaptopurine during maintenance therapy for acute lymphocytic leukemia in childhood adversely affects prognosis, and children should be studied at the beginning of maintenance therapy to establish the pharmacokinetics of merc laptopurine and the dose should be tailored to achieve an appropriate systemic exposure.
Journal ArticleDOI

A Randomized, Double-blind Comparison of Lumbar Epidural and Intravenous Fentanyl Infusions for Postthoracotomy Pain Relief: Analgesic, Pharmacokinetic, and Respiratory Effects

TL;DR: Both groups demonstrated a similar degree of mild to moderate respiratory depression postoperatively, which was assessed with continuous respiratory inductance plethysmography and sequential arterial blood gas analysis.
