TL;DR: Using a multistage genetic association approach comprising 7,480 affected individuals and 7,779 controls, markers in chromosomal region 8q24 associated with colorectal cancer were identified and this locus has been implicated in prostate cancer.
Journal ArticleDOI
Loss‐of‐function mutations in the Nav1.7 gene underlie congenital indifference to pain in multiple human populations
Y P Goldberg,Julie MacFarlane,Marcia L.E. MacDonald,Jay Thompson,M-P Dubé,Maryanne Mattice,R Fraser,C Young,Sakiat Hossain,Terry D Pape,B Payne,C Radomski,G Donaldson,Elizabeth Ives,J Cox,HB Younghusband,Roger C.

TL;DR: Genetic data further support the evidence that Nav1.7 plays an essential role in mediating pain in humans, and that SCN9A mutations identified in multiple different populations underlie CIP.
Journal ArticleDOI
Comparison of multifrequency bioelectrical impedance analysis with dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry for assessment of percentage body fat in a large, healthy population
Guang Sun,Curtis R. French,Glynn Martin,Ban Younghusband,Roger C. Green,Ya-Gang Xie,Maria Mathews,Jane Barron,Donald Fitzpatrick,Wayne Gulliver,Hongwei Zhang +10 more
TL;DR: BIA is a good alternative for estimating %BF when subjects are within a normal body fat range, but tends to overestimate %BF in lean subjects and underestimate % BF in obese subjects.
Journal ArticleDOI
Vascular factors predict rate of progression in Alzheimer disease
Michelle M. Mielke,Paul B. Rosenberg,JoAnn T. Tschanz,Lawrence J. Cook,Chris Corcoran,Kathleen M. Hayden,Maria C. Norton,Peter V. Rabins,Roger C. Green,Kathleen A. Welsh-Bohmer,John C.S. Breitner,Ronald G. Munger,Constantine G. Lyketsos +12 more
TL;DR: Atrial fibrillation, hypertension, and angina were associated with a greater rate of decline and may represent modifiable risk factors for secondary prevention in Alzheimer disease and the attenuated decline for diabetes and coronary artery bypass graft surgery may be due to selective survival.
Journal ArticleDOI
Clinical comparison of Tourette's disorder and obsessive-compulsive disorder.
TL;DR: The patients with obsessive-compulsive disorder showed less coprolalia, echo phenomena, self-destructive behavior, and childhood attention deficit, than the patients with Tourette's disorder, which had high rates of unipolar depressive and generalized anxiety disorders.
