Trend analysis of smoking-attributable hospitalizations in Thailand, 2007–2014

open access: yes, 2018
Introduction Tobacco use is a major preventable risk factor for many noncommunicable diseases. Smoking-attributable mortality has been well described. However, the prevalence of smoking-attributable hospitalization (SAH) and associated costs have been ...

Attributable Risk Estimation in Matched Case-Control Studies [PDF]

open access: yes, 1987
This project discusses some of the methodologies developed over the years to estimate attributable risk among exposed persons and the attributable risk in the entire population (also called Etiologic Fraction).

Communicating more clearly about deaths caused by air pollution

open access: yesGlobal Epidemiology, 2019
How can scientists and risk assessors best communicate with each other, the media, the public, and policy makers what is known, what is guessed, and what is still unknown or uncertain about how changes in air pollution affect human mortality?

Characterization of therapeutic antibodies targeting lymphatic and vascular resistance factor for the treatment of hypervascularized and highly metastatic cancers

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
LVRF (lymphatic and vascular resistance factor) is a VEGFA splice variant upregulated in response to anti‐angiogenic therapy that fosters tumor adaptation through enhanced vascularization, lymphangiogenesis, and metastatic dissemination. Targeting LVRF with fully human neutralizing antibodies disrupts these processes and limits resistant tumor growth ...

The impact of leukocyte‐associated RNA retention on platelet RNA‐based cancer detection

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Platelets carry RNA signals that may help detect cancer, but platelet samples can also retain RNA from white blood cells. We found that this retained white blood cell signal did not significantly affect machine learning cancer classification, suggesting that the cancer‐related RNA signal in platelets is largely independent of leukocyte‐associated RNA ...

Implications of Nondifferential Misclassification on Estimates of Attributable Risk

open access: yes, 2002
Summary Objectives: Only the effects of isolated nondifferential misclassification of exposure or disease on the estimates of attributable risk have been discussed in the literature. The aim of this paper is to broaden the spectrum of scenarios

An outer membrane vesicle‐associated two‐track model for enterotoxigenic Bacteroides fragilis oncogenesis

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Enterotoxigenic Bacteroides fragilis is a gut bacterium linked to bowel cancer. We propose that its toxin acts along two routes: at the cell surface, cutting the adhesion protein E‐cadherin and triggering inflammation; and inside the cell, delivered by bacterial vesicles, switching on NOD1 and cancer stem cell programs.
