Suddenly Infant Death Syndrome (SIDS)

Sudden Infant Death Syndrome (SIDS) and Pacifiers:

Aim: It has been hypothesized that the association of pacifier use with reduced risk of sudden infant death is mediated by forward movement of the mandible and tongue that helps open the upper airway. Our aim was to examine whether the mandible is moved forward when an infant is sucking on a pacifier, and if so, whether the mandible remains advanced after the pacifier is removed. Methods: In si...

Chlamydia trachomatis Serology in Women with and without Ovarian Cancer

Pelvic inflammation has been implicated in the genesis of ovarian cancer. We conducted serologic measurements of Chlamydia trachomatis antibodies as a surrogate marker of chlamydial pelvic inflammatory disease. Women with ovarian cancer (n = 521) and population-based controls (n = 766) were tested. IgG antibodies to serovar D of chlamydia elementary bodies (EBs) were detected using an ELISA ass...

ELISA Serology for Antibodies Against Chlamydia trachomatis in Crohn’s Disease

Background Recently we reported IgA anti-Chlamydia antibodies in patients with Crohn's disease (CD), in particular in four patients from a single family of six with CD. Methods We studied sera from four cohorts from the north of France. These were identified as: EPIMAD (80 pediatric onset CD and 20 pediatric onset ulcerative colitis), MINOTOR (148 adult onset sporadic CD and 50 adult onset ul...
