Prediction of acute myeloid leukaemia risk in healthy individuals

Sagi Abelson, +90 more
- 09 Jul 2018 - 
TL;DR: Deep sequencing is used to analyse genes that are recurrently mutated in AML to distinguish between individuals who have a high risk of developing AML and those with benign ARCH, providing proof-of-concept that it is possible to discriminate ARCH from pre-AML many years before malignant transformation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Genetic susceptibility and gastric cancer risk

TL;DR: The scientific data on the role of genetic factors in gastric cancer risk are promising, but the lack of association reported so far should be considered with caution due to significant limitations in study design.
Journal ArticleDOI

Laboratory evaluation and clinical characteristics of 2,132 consecutive unselected patients with venous thromboembolism--results of the Spanish Multicentric Study on Thrombophilia (EMET-Study).

TL;DR: Patients with familial, recurrent, spontaneous or juvenile venous thrombosis, combined with combined clinical factors, had a higher risk of carrying some deficiency and laboratory evaluation ofThrombotic patients is advisable, especially if some of these clinical factors are present.
Journal ArticleDOI

Common Genetic Variants Highlight the Role of Insulin Resistance and Body Fat Distribution in Type 2 Diabetes, Independent of Obesity

Robert A. Scott, +61 more
- 01 Dec 2014 - 
TL;DR: While insulin resistance is often considered secondary to obesity, the association of the insulin resistance score with lower BMI and adiposity and with incident T2D even among individuals of normal weight highlights the role of insulin resistance and ectopic fat distribution in type 2 diabetes, independently of body size.
Journal ArticleDOI

Protein S deficiency: a database of mutations--summary of the first update.

TL;DR: A first record of identified mutations was undertaken in 1996 under the auspices of the International Society on Thrombosis and Haemostasis Scientific and Standardization Committee (ISTH SSC) and was published in 1997, and this first database reported mutations identified in 126 protein S-deficient subjects.
