Longitudinal Analysis of Change in Mammographic Density in Each Breast and Its Association With Breast Cancer Risk.
JAMA Oncol
June 2023
Division of Public Health Sciences, Department of Surgery, Washington University School of Medicine in St Louis, St Louis, Missouri.
Importance: Although breast density is an established risk factor for breast cancer, longitudinal changes in breast density have not been extensively studied to determine whether this factor is associated with breast cancer risk.
Objective: To prospectively evaluate the association between change in mammographic density in each breast over time and risk of subsequent breast cancer.
Design, Setting, And Participants: This nested case-control cohort study was sampled from the Joanne Knight Breast Health Cohort of 10 481 women free from cancer at entry and observed from November 3, 2008, to October 31, 2020, with routine screening mammograms every 1 to 2 years, providing a measure of breast density.
Effects of clinical, comorbid, and social determinants of health on brain ageing in people with and without HIV: a retrospective case-control study.
Lancet HIV
April 2023
Department of Neurology, Washington University School of Medicine, St Louis, MO, USA.
Background: Neuroimaging reveals structural brain changes linked with HIV infection and related neurocognitive disorders; however, group-level comparisons between people with HIV and people without HIV do not account for within-group heterogeneity. The aim of this study was to quantify the effects of comorbidities such as cardiovascular disease and adverse social determinants of health on brain ageing in people with HIV and people without HIV.
Methods: In this retrospective case-control study, people with HIV from Washington University in St Louis, MO, USA, and people without HIV identified through community organisations or the Research Participant Registry were clinically characterised and underwent 3-Tesla T-weighted MRI between Dec 3, 2008, and Oct 4, 2022.

Department of Dermatology, Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center, Harvard Medical School, Boston, MA, USA.
Introduction: Hidradenitis suppurativa (HS) is a chronic, debilitating, and painful inflammatory skin disease that significantly and negatively impacts patients' quality of life. The prevalence of HS in the USA is estimated to be 0.10%, with worldwide reports suggesting a prevalence closer to 1%.

Biopreserv Biobank
October 2020
Chemical Sciences Division, National Institute of Standards and Technology, Waimanalo, Hawaii, USA.
Sample storage conditions can affect accuracy and reproducibility of biological measurements. Storing samples rapidly at the lowest available temperatures is considered ideal but is not always feasible when sampling in remote and logistically challenging field conditions, as is often the case with sea turtles. The objective of this study was to examine the stability of plasma proteins and quality of whole blood RNA from loggerhead sea turtle samples collected as part of an eighteen-year-long curated specimen collection.

Department of Neurosurgery, Third Affiliated Hospital of Soochow University, Changzhou, China. Electronic address:
Background: Microvascular decompression (MVD) has been the most effective long-term surgical treatment of trigeminal neuralgia (TN). However, the risk factors for poor pain control after MVD are not fully understood.
Methods: A total of 184 patients with typical TN who had undergone MVD at our institution from January 3, 2008 to January 3, 2016 were enrolled in the present study.
