Should we customize fetal growth standards?
Several maternal and fetal physiological characteristics account for a substantial proportion of the variation in birth weight. These characteristics can be used to calculate an individualized optimal birth weight and to adjust or 'customize' the birth weight standard. Customized birth weight standards improve the distinction between constitutional and pathological smallness, and there is evide...
متن کاملShould We Train Alcohol-Dependent Patients to Avoid Alcohol?
Spruyt et al. (2013) report an interesting study in which they compared an alcohol approach-bias, as measured with the Relevant-feature Stimulus Response Compatibility task (R-SRC) in 40 abstaining alcohol-dependent patients and 40 non-dependent controls. While controls had an approach-bias for alcohol as compared to matched control-pictures like water, alcohol-dependent patients showed a relat...
متن کاملVenepuncture for calcium assays: should we still avoid the tourniquet?
Blood was collected by venepuncture from nine healthy subjects over a ten minute period before applying a standard tourniquet, and over a ten minute period afterwards. Plasma ionised calcium was unaltered by the tourniquet, whereas total calcium, total protein and albumin in serum increased modestly. However, there was no effect on total calcium adjusted for albumin. Even without albumin adjust...
متن کاملShould we extract teeth to avoid tooth-implant combinations?
The controversy over combining teeth and implants for support of fixed partial dentures still remains after almost three decades of debate. The aim of this review was to evaluate what support that could be found in the literature for extracting teeth in favour of implants, and to elucidate whether tooth-implant prostheses were inferior to solely implant supported constructions in terms of survi...
متن کاملShould we expect population thresholds for wildlife disease?
Host population thresholds for the invasion or persistence of infectious disease are core concepts of disease ecology and underlie disease control policies based on culling and vaccination. However, empirical evidence for these thresholds in wildlife populations has been sparse, although recent studies have begun to address this gap. Here, we review the theoretical bases and empirical evidence ...
