Demographic determinants of syphilis seroprevalence among U.S. blood donors, 2011–2012
Mark Kane,Evan M. Bloch,Evan M. Bloch,Roberta Bruhn,Zhanna Kaidarova,Edward L. Murphy,Edward L. Murphy +6 more
TL;DR: Syphilis seropositivity was associated with first time blood donation, increasing age, lower education, birth outside the US, and positive tests for HIV and HCV; however it may provide a public health benefit through surveillance of at-risk populations.

TL;DR: Logistic regression analysis showed that the “younger old” were at 26% greater risk of loneliness, after controlling for the effects of these covariates, which may include lower rates of depression and lower likelihood of feeling distant from friends.
Journal ArticleDOI
Prevalence of Medical Conditions Potentially Amenable to Cellular Therapy among Families Privately Storing Umbilical Cord Blood.
Peter Mazonson,Mark Kane,Kelin Colberg,Heather Harris,Heather Brown,Andrew Mohr,Alyssa Ziman,Chris Santas +7 more
TL;DR: Among families storing umbilical cord blood in private cord blood banks, conditions for which stem cell transplant or infusion may be indicated, or are under investigation, appear to be prevalent, especially for regenerative medicine indications.

Peter Mazonson,Mark Kane,Kelin Colberg,Heather Harris,Heather Brown,Andrew Mohr,Chris Santas,Adrian D. Sandler +7 more
TL;DR: The results of this analysis suggest that while children diagnosed with CP and with access to stored CB differ from a broader population sample in terms of demographics, they have similar clinical severity and comorbidity profiles.
