For our control patients group, we selected 10 patients with PAH (idiopathic or connective tissue disease associated) from the same cohort.
Owing to the role of Ngn3 in glucose homeostasis, and the association of obesity with endocrine disorders such as type 2 diabetes, we next investigated in Nkx2.1iCre/+ Ngn3 flox/flox mice the glucose/insulin response system as well as a number of other hormones associated with obesity (in the same cohort of n=9 for each sex and genotype).
From a pool of 77 metabolites, which showed significant associations with systolic blood pressure (BP) or diastolic BP, we narrowed the list down to three metabolites (dihomo-linoleate (20 2n6), hexadecanedioate, and caffeine) that were also significantly associated with mortality in the same cohort and replicated in the KORA and Hertfordshire populations.
A nationwide cohort study demonstrates that RA is associated with the same risk of myocardial infarction as DM [ 11].
As the same seven items were not associated with the same factors across groups, i.e. configural invariance was not indicated, we followed up the CFA of the BiB cohort with exploratory factor analysis (EFA).
In our study, a baseline history of chronic conditions was not associated with anemia although in the same cohort, anemia was associated with incident CVD [ 10].
Individual interneurons associated with the same glomerulus show different morphologies.
The latter two sensitivity analyses were conducted since these pollutants were previously associated with fetal growth in the same cohort.
Gp-340 I positive subjects displayed increased saliva adhesion of S. mutans, a function previously associated with caries development in the same cohort.
We focused in this study on sports, cycling, and gardening, which were previously associated with lower mortality in the same cohort (Johnsen et al. 2013), and additionally walking at least half an hour per week, which is relevant as an outdoor physical activity pertinent to exposure to air pollution.
We previously reported that the risk factors for vascular disease including hypertension, DM, hyperlipidemia, and smoking are significantly associated with LUTS, using data from the same cohort in the Hallym Aging Study [ 26].
