Journal ArticleDOI
Inclusion of Flagellin during Vaccination against Influenza Enhances Recall Responses in Nonhuman Primate Neonates
Jong R. Kim,Beth C. Holbrook,Sarah L. Hayward,Lance K. Blevins,Matthew J. Jorgensen,Nancy D. Kock,Kristina De Paris,Ralph B. D'Agostino,S. Tyler Aycock,Steven B. Mizel,Griffith D. Parks,Martha A. Alexander-Miller +11 more
TL;DR: This study provides the first evidence of flagellin-mediated enhancement of vaccine responses in nonhuman primate neonates and suggests that flagella may serve as an effective adjuvant for vaccines targeted to this vulnerable population of young infants.
Journal ArticleDOI
Frequency of Left Ventricular End-Diastolic Volume-Mediated Declines in Ejection Fraction in Patients Receiving Potentially Cardiotoxic Cancer Treatment.
Giselle C. Meléndez,Bunyapon Sukpraphrute,Ralph B. D'Agostino,Jennifer H. Jordan,Heidi D. Klepin,Leslie R. Ellis,Zanetta S. Lamar,Sujethra Vasu,Glenn J. Lesser,Gregory L. Burke,Kathryn E. Weaver,William O. Ntim,W. Gregory Hundley +12 more
TL;DR: Data indicate that LV volumes should be reviewed along with LVEF when acquiring imaging studies for cardiotoxicity during the treatment for cancer, because reductions in intravascular volume may account for LVEDV-related declines in LVEf.
Journal ArticleDOI
Duration and Degree of Weight Gain and Incident Diabetes in Younger Versus Middle-Aged Black and White Adults: ARIC, CARDIA, and the Framingham Heart Study.
Gina S. Wei,Sean Coady,Jared P. Reis,Mercedes R. Carnethon,Josef Coresh,Ralph B. D'Agostino,David C. Goff,David R. Jacobs,Elizabeth Selvin,Caroline S. Fox +9 more
TL;DR: Although middle-aged adults have higher rates of diabetes, younger adults are at greater relative risk of developing diabetes for a given level of duration and degree of weight gain.
Journal ArticleDOI
The association between adiponectin/leptin ratio and diabetes type: the SEARCH for Diabetes in Youth Study.
David M. Maahs,Richard F. Hamman,Ralph B. D'Agostino,Lawrence M. Dolan,G Imperatore,Jean M. Lawrence,Santica M. Marcovina,Elizabeth J. Mayer-Davis,Catherine Pihoker,Dana Dabelea +9 more
TL;DR: Although adiponectin/leptin ratio is associated with diabetes type in youth, it is due to differences in adip onectin, but not leptin levels, not type of diabetes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Application of net reclassification index to non-nested and point-based risk prediction models: a review.
TL;DR: By applying non-nested models and point-based risk scores in the setting of stroke risk prediction in patients with atrial fibrillation, this work demonstrates current recommendations for presentation and interpretation of the net reclassification index.
