<i>Objective:</i> Communicating genetic research results to participants presents ethical challenges. Our objectives were examine participants’ preferences in receiving future and compare reported by veteran nonveterans participants. <i>Methods:</i> Secondary analysis was performed on data collected 2000–2004 from 1,575 consent forms signed Mexican-American enrolled 2 family studies (GFS) San Antonio: The Family Investigation of Nephropathy Diabetes (FIND) the...
We performed a retrospective chart review of 6266 randomly selected DLBCL patients treated in the VHA nationwide between 1/1/2011 and 12/31/2021. The 3178 who met inclusion criteria were predominantly male (97%) white (75%). Median age diagnosis for Black was 63 years vs 69 entire cohort (
In the majority of studies using primary cultures myoblasts, cells are maintained at ambient oxygen tension (21% O2), despite fact that physiological O2 tissue level in vivo is much lower (~1-5% O2). We hypothesized cellular response presence high concentration might be particularly important comparing energetic function or oxidative stress isolated from young versus old animals. To test this, we asked whether plays a role mitochondrial bioenergetics (oxygen consumption, glycolysis and fatty...
The HFE protein plays a key role in the regulation of body iron. polymorphisms (H63D and C282Y) are common genetic variants Caucasians. Based on frequency data, both have been associated with increased risk number cancers. prevalence two major human brain tumor patient population impact survival not studied. In present study, male GBM patients H63D polymorphism (H63D) poorer overall than wild type (WT) (p = 0.03). C282Y (C282Y), female shorter 0.05). addition, metastatic times post diagnosis...
Objective: To quantify progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy (PML) risk in multiple sclerosis (MS) patients considering or receiving natalizumab using three factors: anti-JC virus (JCV) antibody positive serostatus, prior immunosuppressant use, and treatment duration. Background PML, an opportunistic brain infection caused by JCV, occurs primarily who are immunocompromised have received immunomodulatory therapies, such as natalizumab. Anti-JCV status, duration PML factors...
The United States is becoming older and increasingly diverse in cultures, languages socioeconomic standing. However, providing culturally linguistically adequate health promotion programs for ethnically adults remains a challenge. Research investigating the relationships between ethnicity, status disease has been limited. This clinical demonstration project explored relationship falls ethnicity group of community dwelling San Antonio, TX, using adapted video novela on fall prevention. video,...
