TL;DR: Outpatient BPs measured in routine clinical practice were generally higher than BP measurements taken in SPRINT, with greater mean SBP differences apparent in the intensive treatment group, and a consistent high degree of heterogeneity between the BPs recorded in the EHR and trial BPs.
Journal ArticleDOI
Redundancy control in pathway databases (ReCiPa): an application for improving gene-set enrichment analysis in Omics studies and "Big data" biology.
TL;DR: ReCiPa (Redundancy Control in Pathway Databases) is developed, to control redundancies in pathway databases based on user-defined thresholds, and demonstrated that gene-sets identified from overlap-controlled pathway databases show stronger evidence of prior association to obesity compared to pathways identified from the original databases.
