Prevalence and incidence of postpartum depression among healthy mothers: A systematic review and meta-analysis
Shefaly Shorey,Cornelia Yin Ing Chee,Esperanza Debby Ng,Yiong Huak Chan,Wilson W.S. Tam,Yap Seng Chong +5 more
TL;DR: There was no statistical difference in prevalence between different screening time points, but an increasing prevalence was observed beyond six months postpartum, and future studies should place equal emphasis on this neglected group of mothers so that targeted interventions and follow-ups can be introduced at appropriate time points.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: This paper aims to provide a history of infectious disease in Singapore over a 50-year period and some of the main causes and treatments were identified in the period up to and including the year in question.

TL;DR: This study surveyed the genotypes and DNA methylomes of 237 neonates and found 1423 punctuate regions of the methylome that were highly variable across individuals, termed variably methylated regions (VMRs), against a backdrop of homogeneity.

TL;DR: The trans-ancestry genome-wide association and replication study of blood pressure phenotypes among up to 320,251 individuals of East Asian, European and South Asian ancestry finds genetic variants at 12 new loci to be associated with blood pressure, providing new evidence for the role of DNA methylation in blood pressure regulation.
