Explaining differences in birth size and adiposity between Pakistani and White British babies [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
There is a growing recognition that being born 'small is associated with an increased risk of poorer adult cardiometabolic health in addition to its known adverse effects on perinatal and infant outcomes.

Is vulnerability to cardiometabolic disease in Indians mediated by abdominal adiposity or higher body adiposity. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
BACKGROUND: Indians may be particularly vulnerable to cardiometabolic disease, potentially due to higher body fat for a given BMI, or a tendency towards depositing abdominal adiposity.

Iowa Gambling Task: There is more to consider than long-term outcome.Using a linear equation model to disentangle the impact of outcome and frequency of gains and losses.

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroscience, 2012
The Iowa Gambling Task (IGT) has been widely used to assess differences in decision-making under uncertainty. Recently, several studies have shown that healthy subjects do not meet the basic predictions of the task (i.e. prefer options with positive long-
