Journal Article

Metal ion-dependent hydrogen peroxide-induced DNA damage is more sequence specific than metal specific

TL;DR: It is concluded that during H2O2 in vivo treatment of cells, metal ions are freed from the cytoplasm to migrate into the nucleus and supply the redox cycling ligands necessary for oxidative base damage.
Journal ArticleDOI

Association between increased homocysteine levels and impaired fibrinolytic potential: potential mechanism for cardiovascular risk.

TL;DR: Folic acid and other homocysteine lowering therapies may decrease cardiac events through a reduction in thrombotic tendency, as indicated by increased PAI-1 and TPA antigen levels.
Journal ArticleDOI

Use of composite endpoints in clinical trials

TL;DR: The utility of composite endpoints in clinical trials and some of the common approaches for dealing with multiplicity arising from their use are discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Simulation probability points of b2 for small samples

TL;DR: A table of percentiles of b2, the fourth standardized sample moment, applicable for samples of size 50 or less is given in this paper, which can be used for testing the hypothesis of normality against alternatives of nonnormality due to kurtosis.
Journal ArticleDOI

Factor VII Gene Polymorphism, Factor VII Levels, and Prevalent Cardiovascular Disease The Framingham Heart Study

TL;DR: In the Framingham Heart Study, the Arg/Gln polymorphism was significantly associated with factor VII antigen levels, and the strength of the association suggests that genetic variation plays an important role in determining factor VII levels.
