6f). Multivariate logistic regression including patient sex, cancer type and subtype, and tumor stage (matched with the normal tissue analyzed) confirmed the negative correlation between the pleiotropic RNY signature and age at diagnosis: β = −0.10, p = 0.025. The analysis stratified by TCGA ...
To avoid high type I errors, we performed a score test using saddle point approximation implemented in the R package SPAtest (https://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/SPAtest/index.html; v3.1.2). $${\rm{SLE}} \sim {\rm{eHHV{\hbox{-}}6}}+{\rm{age}}+{{\rm{age}}}^{2}+{...
Previous studies showed that HemoQuant test which measures both heme and heme-derived porphyrin, detects occult upper GI tract blood loss significantly more frequently than the guaiac-type or immunochemical tests (I-FOBT). This is because I-FOBT targets antigenic sequences on the globin chains of...
We identified a significant enrichment for MVP-associated blood proteins in the immune response (fold-enrichment:2.18, P = 0.02, hypergeometric test) (MASP1, STAT6, LPO, IL16, CX3CL1, CSF1, DEFB1, IL1RAP). To capture the general function of the blood proteins associated with MVP ...

ICD implantation in small children (body weight <20 to 25 kg) is more challenging. They are too small for a transvenous or subcutaneous system, so an epicardial system is needed. Various techniques have been utilized, but for an infant weighing less than 5 kg, the most reliable system cons...
We analyzed the UK Biobank whole genome sequences among ~130 K participants to provide evidence of replication for the significant coding and non-coding aggregate sets. We used a Bonferroni-corrected significance threshold based on the number of genes tested in each type of aggregate-based test...
Additionally, Table 4 presents a comparison between the MIMIC-III Clinical database and the MIMIC-BP subset with respect to the distribution of the four most common ethnic groups/races, while Table 5 shows the disease distribution along the database (grouped using ICD-9 coding, the same as ...
The clinical trial presented at the ESC Congress 2012 showed that a blood test can predict which patients will need adefibrillatorin the next year. The test, called PulsePredic, discriminates with high predictive power who will or will not need an ICD to prevent abnormal heartbeats and subsequen...
