Within a cohort of women who participated in a randomized smoking cessation trial, we examined the relation of polymorphisms in genes related to dopamine synthesis (tyrosine hydroxylase [ TH]), receptor activation (DRD2, DRD3, DRD4), transport and synaptic reuptake (the dopamine transporter [ SLC6A3]) and metabolism (catechol-O-methyltransferase [ COMT]) with the ability to quit smoking.
Recent investigations have mainly focused on sepsis-related severity scores, eg the American College of Chest Physicians/Society of Critical Care Medicine Consensus Conference (ACCP/SCCM) criteria [ 6, 7, 8] or related scores [ 9, 10], but have not yet examined the relation of PCT concentrations to multiorgan dysfunction independent from the etiology of sepsis.
We examined the relation of chemical properties with hospital admissions for three specific respiratory-related causes: COPD, pneumonia, and ARI.
This study examined the relation of self-compassion to positive psychological health and the five factor model of personality.
We examined the relation of maternal sociodemographic, medical, and behavioral characteristics with risk of abruptio placentae in Peruvian women.
The present study investigated electrocortical and cardiovascular reactivity during positive and negative emotion, and examined the relation of asymmetric frontal lobe activation to cardiovascular responses.
We examined the relation of airway inflammation and lung function in the 19 individuals (95%) who expectorated an adequate sputum sample.
In this study we examined the relation of team weigh-ins and self-weighing frequency on collegiate male athletes' internalization of body ideals, social pressures about weight/body, body satisfaction, dietary intent, negative affect, drive for muscularity, and bulimic symptomatology.
We also examined the relation of PBL telomere length to hippocampal volume (data not shown in table).
We examined the relation of age and foraging performance by using high-resolution data, which allowed us to investigate if there were differences in prey pursuit patterns at a fine scale.
We next examined the relation of literacy to functional status.
