Data Science in Environmental Health ResearchSpringer Science and Business Media LLC - Tập 6 - Trang 291-299 - 2019
Christine Choirat, Danielle Braun, Marianthi-Anna Kioumourtzoglou
Data science is an exploding trans-disciplinary field that aims to harness the
power of data to gain information or insights on researcher-defined topics of
interest. In this paper, we review how data science can help advance
environmental health research. We discuss the concepts of computationally
scalable handling of big data and the design of efficient research data
platforms and how data scien... hiện toàn bộ
Anxious Generation: a Review of the Relationship Between Anxiety Disorders and Cardiovascular Disease in YouthSpringer Science and Business Media LLC - Tập 7 - Trang 39-43 - 2020
Irene Ryan
Rising rates of youth anxiety may adversely affect later cardiovascular health
(CVH); thus, this is an area of research that could be lacking. Anxiety
disorders and poor CVH have been linked in adults by way of negative effects on
cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk factors and mortality. Anxiety disorders have
also been linked to risky lifestyle and behavioral choices like adiposity,
physical inact... hiện toàn bộ
Developmental Origins of Cardiovascular DiseaseSpringer Science and Business Media LLC - Tập 1 - Trang 9-16 - 2014
Edwina H. Yeung, Candace Robledo, Nansi Boghossian, Cuilin Zhang, Pauline Mendola
Although cardiovascular disease has traditionally been viewed as a condition of
aging individuals, increasing focus has turned to its developmental origins.
Since birth weight has been related to cardiovascular disease risk, research
into factors such as gravid conditions that affect fetal growth have grown.
Associations between maternal diabetes and childhood obesity from sibling
studies suggest ... hiện toàn bộ
Menstrual Cycle Tracking Applications and the Potential for Epidemiological Research: a Comprehensive Review of the LiteratureSpringer Science and Business Media LLC - Tập 8 - Trang 9-19 - 2021
Joelle S. Schantz, Claudia S. P. Fernandez, Anne Marie Z. Jukic
We reviewed published studies on menstrual cycle tracking applications (MCTAs)
in order to describe the potential of MCTAs for epidemiologic research. A search
of PubMed, Web of Science, and Scopus for MCTA literature yielded 150 articles.
After exclusions, there were 49 articles that addressed the primary interest
areas: 1) characteristics of MCTA users in research, 2) reasons women use or

The Utility of Multistate Models: A Flexible Framework for Time-to-Event DataSpringer Science and Business Media LLC - Tập 9 - Trang 183-189 - 2022
Jennifer G. Le-Rademacher, Terry M. Therneau, Fang-Shu Ou
Survival analyses are common and essential in medical research. Most readers are
familiar with Kaplan–Meier curves and Cox models; however, very few are familiar
with multistate models. Although multistate models were introduced in 1965, they
only recently receive more attention in the medical research community. The
current review introduces common terminologies and quantities that can be

The Curse of the Perinatal Epidemiologist: Inferring Causation Amidst SelectionSpringer Science and Business Media LLC - Tập 5 - Trang 379-387 - 2018
Jonathan M. Snowden, Marit L. Bovbjerg, Mekhala Dissanayake, Olga Basso
Human reproduction is a common process and one that unfolds over a relatively
short time, but pregnancy and birth processes are challenging to study.
Selection occurs at every step of this process (e.g., infertility, early
pregnancy loss, and stillbirth), adding substantial bias to estimated
exposure-outcome associations. Here, we focus on selection in perinatal
epidemiology, specifically, how it ... hiện toàn bộ
Gestational Diabetes Mellitus: Its Epidemiology and Implication beyond PregnancySpringer Science and Business Media LLC - Tập 3 - Trang 1-11 - 2016
Liwei Chen, Rachel Mayo, Adaire Chatry, Gang Hu
Gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM), defined as glucose intolerance with onset
or first recognition during pregnancy, is the most common pregnancy complication
worldwide. Recent data have shown a substantial rise in the prevalence of GDM
among women of various ethnic/racial backgrounds and in different geographic
regions. The purpose of the current review is to summarize recent studies about
GDM d... hiện toàn bộ
