TL;DR: These ultrasound measures of carotid artery morphology, while somewhat correlated, likely represent distinctive quantitative traits with different biological determinants, as underscored by different risk factor associations in the multivariate regression analysis.
Journal ArticleDOI
Genetic Variation in PPARG Encoding Peroxisome Proliferator-Activated Receptor γ Associated With Carotid Atherosclerosis
Khalid Z. Al-Shali,Andrew A. House,Anthony J. Hanley,Hafiz M. R. Khan,Stewart B. Harris,Bernard Zinman,Mary Mamakeesick,Aaron Fenster,J. David Spence,Robert A. Hegele +9 more
TL;DR: The findings show an association betweenPPARG genotypes and carotid arterial phenotypes, and further reflect the prevailing view that the PPARG A12 allele protects against deleterious phenotypes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Complications of Type 2 Diabetes Among Aboriginal Canadians: prevalence and associated risk factors.
Anthony J. G. Hanley,Stewart B. Harris,Mary Mamakeesick,Ken Goodwin,Edith Fiddler,Robert A. Hegele,J. David Spence,Andrew A. House,Edward M Brown,Blair Schoales,John R. McLaughlin,Ronald Klein,Bernard Zinman +12 more
TL;DR: The objective of the present research project was to systematically determine the prevalence of micro- and macrovascular complications among Aboriginal Canadians who have type 2 diabetes and to identify risk factors that are associated with these conditions.
Journal ArticleDOI
Adipokines and Incident Type 2 Diabetes in an Aboriginal Canadian Population: The Sandy Lake Health and Diabetes Project
Sylvia H. Ley,Stewart B. Harris,Philip W. Connelly,Mary Mamakeesick,Joel Gittelsohn,Robert A. Hegele,Ravi Retnakaran,Bernard Zinman,Anthony J. Hanley +8 more
TL;DR: This article investigated associations of adiponectin, leptin, C-reactive protein (CRP), interleukin (IL)-6, and serum amyloid A (SAA), individually or in combinations, with risk of incident type 2 diabetes in an Aboriginal Canadian population.
Journal ArticleDOI
Metabolic syndrome and its components as predictors of incident type 2 diabetes mellitus in an Aboriginal community
Sylvia H. Ley,Stewart B. Harris,Mary Mamakeesick,Tina Noon,Edith Fiddler,Joel Gittelsohn,Thomas M.S. Wolever,Philip W. Connelly,Robert A. Hegele,Bernard Zinman,Anthony J. Hanley +10 more
TL;DR: Metabolic syndrome at baseline was associated with incident diabetes after adjustment for age and sex, regardless of whether the syndrome was defined using the National Cholesterol Education Program criteria or the International Diabetes Federation criteria.
