In this population-based study, we showed that insulin resistance is associated with left ventricular diastolic dysfunction.
In this population-based study, we showed that low physical performance is associated with reduced BMD at both the spine and hip in women.
In a previous monolayer-based study, we showed that 16 out of 18 melanoma cell lines were synergistically sensitized to TRAIL-induced apoptosis by co-application of sublethal UVB radiation.
In this questionnaire-based study, we showed that though there have been a number of minor improvements in the self-recorded practices of Turkish physicians when compared to the previous survey, there are still a number of inappropriate practices in terms of acute asthma management.
In a previous population based study, we have shown that approximately 45% women and 20% men were vitamin D insufficient.
In this community based study we have shown that a newborn foot length measurement tool, printed on a counselling card, can be used at the community level with moderate reliability by community volunteers who have received 5 days of training in total, which included approximately 5 hours on foot size measurement.
Using the long term follow-up from the prospective population based Rotterdam Study, we showed that despite similar lifetime risks of CVD at age 55 for men and women, considerable differences in the first manifestation exist.
Based on a simulation study, we showed that no substantial increase in the Type I error rate was observed as the sample size decreased from 1,000 to 40 subjects, but that small sample sizes lead to biased estimations of the marginal treatment effect.
Based on a thorough theoretical study, we show that the M-of-N hypothesis space has two partial orders that form complete lattices.
Another large population based study showed similar results; Finnish middle-aged men with weak SOC showed a higher mortality risk in an 8-year follow-up study [ 42], but this effect was weakened after 12 years [ 43].
