Studies of cue reactivity have confirmed bias in attention and gaze to drug-related stimuli for most substances, but methamphetamine drugs are less studied by a direct measure such as eye tracking.

متن کاملA review of the literature on the effects of acetaminophen on pregnancy outcome.
Acetaminophen is commonly used during pregnancy. Experimental animal studies do not suggest increased malformations after therapeutic use of single-ingredient acetaminophen during pregnancy. Cohort studies in humans in which exposure is prospectively ascertained show no detectable increase in congenital malformation risk associated with single-ingredient acetaminophen use during pregnancy. A ca...
متن کاملUncovering selection bias in case-control studies using Bayesian poststratifictation
Selection bias can affect odds ratio estimation in particular in case-control studies. Approaches to discovering and adjusting for selection bias have been proposed in the literature using graphical and heuristic tools as well as more complex statistical methods. The approach we propose is based on a survey weighting method termed Bayesian post-stratification and follows from the conditional in...

متن کاملO-26: Comparison of Congenital Malformation of Infants Conceived by Assisted Reproductive Techniques versus Infants with Natural Conception in Tehran
Background: In many countries, 1% to 3% of newborn infants are conceived by Assisted Reproductive Techniques (ART). Despite the success of ART, there is concern about the risk of congenital malformations among these infants. We report our experience to determine whether use of ART is associated with an increase in major congenital malformations or adverse pregnancy outcomes Materials and Method...
