Arylesterase Phenotype-Specific Positive Association Between Arylesterase Activity and Cholinesterase Specific Activity in Human Serum
Plasma arylesterase activity was positively associated with plasma ChE specific activity. This observation is consistent with protection conferred by a metabolic phenotype resulting in reduced internal dose
Primary care patients’ views and decisions about, experience of and reactions to direct-to-consumer genetic testing
The Modifying Effect of Social Class on the Relationship Between Body Mass Index and Breast Cancer Incidence
Objectives. We sought to determine whether social class modifies the effect of BMI on breast cancer incidence. Methods. Participants included 5642 postmenopausal White women recruited in 1989 to CLUE II, a prospective cohort study in Washington County, Maryland. We obtained exposure data from CLUE II and the 1990 US Census. We used survival and random-effects Cox proportional hazards analyses to determine the association of social class and BMI w…
The Built Environment and Obesity
Obesity results from a complex interaction between diet, physical activity, and the environment. The built environment encompasses a range of physical and social elements that make up the structure of a community and may influence obesity. This review summarizes existing empirical research relating the built environment to obesity. The Medline, PsychInfo, and Web of Science databases were searched using the keywords "obesity" or "overweight" and …
The relationship between gender, social support, and health-related quality of life in a community-based study in Washington County, Maryland
The practice of prophylactic mastectomy
OBJECTIVES. Bilateral prophylactic mastectomy is a drastic breast cancer preventive option for which indications are not standardized and efficacy has not been proven. To estimate the magnitude of this controversial practice, surgeons were surveyed on their recommendations about and performance of prophylactic mastectomy. METHODS. A cross-sectional survey was sent to general surgeons (n = 522), plastic surgeons (n = 80), and gynecologists (n = 80…
Acute myocardial infarction among Navajo Indians, 1976-83
We found that from 1976 through 1983 the incidence of acute myocardial infarction (AMI) diagnosed among Navajo Indians remained low (0.5 per 1,000 persons age 30 years or more), although the incidence in women appears to be climbing. Navajo AMI patients are more likely to be hypertensive and diabetic than age- and sex-matched patients with gallbladder disease. Twenty-four per cent die within one month of AMI
