Birth size and brain function 75 years later.
BACKGROUND There are several lines of evidence pointing to fetal and other early origins of diseases of the aging brain, but there are no data directly addressing the hypotheses in an older population. We investigated the association of fetal size to late-age measures of brain structure and function in a large cohort of older men and women and explored the modifying effect of education on these...
متن کاملYates and Contingency Tables: 75 Years Later
Seventy-five years ago, Yates (1934) presented an article introducing his continuity correction to the χ test for independence in contingency tables. The paper also was one of the first introductions to Fisher’s exact test. We discuss the historical importance of Yates and his 1934 paper. The development of the exact test and continuity correction are studied in some detail. Subsequent disputes...
متن کاملSize at birth and later blood pressure.
Adults who were small at birth have been reported to have higher systolic blood pressure and risk of ischaemic heart disease in later life. Conversely, in 616 subjects of less than 34 weeks' gestation and 1850 g birth weight, systolic and diastolic blood pressures at 7.5 to 8 years of age decreased with decreasing weight for gestational age and were not related to birth weight.

متن کاملAdult neurogenesis 20 years later: physiological function vs. brain repair
Citation: Peretto P and Bonfanti L (2015) Adult neurogenesis 20 years later: physiological function vs. brain repair. Two decades of intense investigation in the field of adult neurogenesis (AN) provided us with a fully renewed vision of brain plasticity, involving stem/progenitor cells capable of generating new neu-rons and glial cells throughout life. We know for sure that new neurons produce...
