Siblings, day-care attendance, and the risk of asthma and wheezing during childhood.
Thomas M. Ball,Jose A. Castro-Rodriguez,Kent A. Griffith,Catharine J. Holberg,Fernando D. Martinez,Anne L. Wright +5 more

Shruti Jolly,Kent A. Griffith,Rochelle DeCastro,Abigail J. Stewart,Peter A. Ubel,Reshma Jagsi +5 more

Journal ArticleDOI
The association of sleep-disordered breathing and sleep symptoms with quality of life in the Sleep Heart Health Study.
Carol M. Baldwin,Kent A. Griffith,F. J. Nieto,George T. O'Connor,J. A. Walsleben,Susan Redline +5 more
TL;DR: This study assessed the extent to which sleep-disordered breathing, difficulty initiating and maintaining sleep (DIMS), and excessive daytime sleepiness (EDS) were associated with impairment of quality of life (QoL) using the SF-36 to suggest mild to moderate SDB is associated with reduced vitality, while severeSDB is more broadly associated with poorer QoL.
Journal ArticleDOI
Aldehyde dehydrogenase in combination with CD133 defines angiogenic ovarian cancer stem cells that portend poor patient survival.
Ines A. Silva,Shoumei Bai,Karen McLean,Kun Yang,Kent A. Griffith,Dafydd G. Thomas,Christophe Ginestier,Carolyn Johnston,Angela Kueck,R. Kevin Reynolds,Max S. Wicha,Ronald J. Buckanovich +11 more
TL;DR: ALDH and CD133 are defined as a functionally significant set of markers to identify ovarian CSCs and the presence of ALDH(+)CD133(+) cells in debulked primary tumor specimens correlated with reduced disease-free and overall survival in ovarian cancer patients.

TL;DR: In this paper, the extent to which sleep-disordered breathing (SDB), difficulty initiating and maintaining sleep (DIMS), and excessive daytime sleepiness (EDS) were associated with impairment of quality of life (QoL) using the SF-36.
