Background— Accumulating evidence demonstrates that both maternal prepregnancy body mass index (mppBMI) and gestational weight gain (GWG) are associated with adult offspring adiposity. However, whether these attributes related to other cardiometabolic risk factors in adulthood has not been comprehensively studied. Methods Results— We used a birth cohort of 1400 young adults born Jerusalem who had extensive archival data clinical information at 32 years age prospectively examine the...
Background: TBI may be defined by different methods. Some most useful for immediate clinical purposes, however less optimal epidemiologic research. Other methods, such as the Abbreviated Injury Score (AIS), prove more beneficial this task, if cut-off-points their categories are correctly.Objective: To reveal AIS in definition of severity order to ensure uniformity between future studies TBI.Results: Mortality patients with 3, 4 was 1.9% and 2.9% respectively, comparing 31.1% among 5+....

Studies demonstrate associations between changes in obesity-related phenotypes and cardiovascular risk. Although maternal pre-pregnancy BMI (mppBMI) gestational weight gain (GWG) may be associated with adult offspring adiposity, no study has examined obesity changes. Associations of mppBMI GWG longitudinal change offspring's (ΔBMI) were examined, whether are explained by genetics was assessed.A birth cohort 1400 adults, data at birth, age 17 32 years used. After genotyping offspring, genetic...

In Israel, nearly 10,000 children are hospitalized due to injury every year.To define patterns in subgroups of the pediatric population, order focus prevention programs on vulnerable groups.A retrospective study Israel's National Trauma Registry (ITR) data patients aged 0-17 years between 1 January 1998 and 31 December 2002 trauma. Data includes patient demographic details, information injury, hospital resource utilization, length stay outcome. Descriptive statistics were used characterize...

Maternal pre-pregnancy body-mass index (ppBMI) and gestational weight gain (GWG) are associated with cardiometabolic risk (CMR) traits in the offspring. The extent to which maternal genetic variation accounts for these associations is unknown.In 1249 mother-offspring pairs recruited from Jerusalem Perinatal Study, we used archival data characterize ppBMI GWG follow-up offspring assess CMR, including body mass (BMI), waist circumference, glucose, insulin, blood pressure, lipid levels, at an...
