Effect on adherence to nicotine replacement therapy of informing smokers their dose is determined by their genotype: a randomised controlled trial.

TL;DR: Informing smokers their oral dose of NRT was tailored to genotype not phenotype had a small, statistically non-significant effect on 28-day adherence to NRT, and among those still smoking at six months, there was no evidence that saying NRT is tailored togenotype adversely affected motivation to make another quit attempt.
Journal ArticleDOI

What motivates interest in attending a familial cancer genetics clinic

TL;DR: Personal motivation for referral is clearly different for those who have had a diagnosis of cancer and for those with children, compared to unaffected and childless people, and is characterised by altruistic concern for other family members rather than a perception of increased personal risk.
Journal ArticleDOI

Predictors of suboptimal glycaemic control in type 2 diabetes patients: The role of medication adherence and body mass index in the relationship between glycaemia and age

TL;DR: The lower HbA(1c) achieved from greater adherence to glucose lowering treatment is comparable to that achieved with additional medication, and is not explained by better adherence, but may partly relate to lower BMI.
Journal ArticleDOI
