title = {Sex-dependent association of common variants of microcephaly genes with brain structure},
abstract = {Loss-of-function mutations in the genes associated with primary microcephaly (MCPH) reduce human brain size by about two-thirds, without producing gross abnormalities in brain organization or physiology and leaving other organs largely unaffected [Woods CG, et al. (2005) Am J Hum Genet 76:717-728]. There is also evidence suggesting that MCPH genes have evolved rapidly in primates and humans and have been subjected to selection in recent human evolution [Vallender EJ, et al. (2008) Trends Neurosci 31:637-644]. Here, we show that common variants of MCPH genes account for some of the common variation in brain structure in humans, independently of disease status. We investigated the correlations of SNPs from four MCPH genes with brain morphometry phenotypes obtained with MRI. We found significant, sex-specific associations between common, nonexonic, SNPs of the genes CDK5RAP2, MCPH1, and ASPM, with brain volume or cortical surface area in an ethnically homogenous Norwegian discovery sample (n = 287), including patients with mental illness. The most strongly associated SNP findings were replicated in an independent North American sample (n = 656), which included patients with dementia. These results are consistent with the view that common variation in brain structure is associated with genetic variants located in nonexonic, presumably regulatory, regions.},

abstract = {OBJECTIVE: To determine whether the Brazelton Neonatal Behavioral Assessment Scale (NBAS) can detect behavioral differences in newborn infants of optimal health and, if such differences appear, also detect gender differences among those neonates. METHODS: Participants were a group of healthy Swedish neonates, 20 boys and 18 girls. The infants were assessed by the NBAS under standardized conditions at 48-72 hours of age, at the midpoint between two meals. RESULTS: All items except those in the dimensions Autonomic System and Motor System had a wide interquartile range. The trend was that girls had higher median item profiles, which means a higher level of functioning than boys. Four out of seven median values in the dimension Social Interactive Organization, as well as the median value in the self-quieting item in the dimension State Regulation, were significantly higher for girls. The interquartile range of the items seemed wider for boys than for girls. CONCLUSIONS: The results indicate behavioral variability among healthy neonates. Gender differences were also observed with girls showing higher levels of functioning than boys.},

abstract = {The purpose of this study was to determine the appropriateness of the recently developed Multidimensional Quality of Life Questionnaire for HIV/AIDS (MQoL-HIV) as a measure of quality of life (QoL) in cases of asymptomatic human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection. The MQoL-HIV is a 40-item instrument measuring ten domains (mental health, physical health, physical functioning, social functioning, social support, cognitive functioning, financial status, partner intimacy, sexual functioning and medical care) relevant to HIV infection. An overall QoL score, the MQoL-HIV Index, is a weighted composite of two domain scores. In a sample of 216 HIV-infected men and women, the MQoL-HIV distinguished acquired immune deficiency syndrome (AIDS), symptomatic and asymptomatic cases in overall QoL and in seven individual QoL domains. The index was responsive to perceived QoL changes over 5.5 months (r = 0.52). We also found the MQoL-HIV was less susceptible to ceiling effects in asymptomatic cases than was the Medical Outcomes Study (MOS) SF-20. These results suggest that the MQoL-HIV is a valid and reliable measure of QoL for both asymptomatic and symptomatic HIV infection.},

title = {Validation of the Patient Perception of Migraine Questionnaire},
abstract = {OBJECTIVE: The purpose of this study was to assess the psychometric properties of the Patient Perception of Migraine Questionnaire (PPMQ), which measures patient satisfaction with migraine therapy. METHODS AND DATA: The PPMQ was administered to 940 patients as part of a 3-month, multinational, open-label, clinical trial comparing the effects of oral naratriptan 2.5 mg with the patient's customary therapy for the treatment of migraine. Psychometric properties of the PPMQ were evaluated in terms of its latent factor structure, validity, reliability, sensitivity, and development of a scoring method. Classical Test theory and Item Response theory (IRT) modeling were both used to measure reliability. RESULTS: The PPMQ was able to detect treatment differences (P >.001), and all items significantly correlated with diary ratings of headache pain (r =.18-.51, p >.0001) and the Medical Outcomes Short Form-36 pain scale (r =.27, p >.0001). A principal components factor analysis revealed that the items on the PPMQ were psychometrically distinct and unidimensional (loadings, 0.74-0.91), with the exclusion of two items. The reliability (i.e., internal item consistency) of the PPMQ post-trial was high in both treatment groups (Cronbach's alpha = 0.96). An IRT analysis also ensured the formation of homogenous items, which were stable on repeat administration. Items did not require weighting and can be simply summed to yield a total score. CONCLUSION: Based on the data from this one clinical trial, the 15-item PPMQ was shown to be a valid and reliable instrument that seems to efficiently and comprehensively measure patient perception of drug attributes in relation to the treatment of symptoms associated with migraine headaches.},

abstract = {BACKGROUND: Health-related quality of life (HR-QOL) is a relevant and quantifiable outcome of care. We implemented HR-QOL assessment at all primary care visits at UCSD Owen Clinic using EQ-5D. The study aim was to estimate the prognostic value of EQ-5D for survival, hospitalization, and emergency department (ED) utilization after controlling for CD4 and HIV plasma viral load (pVL). METHODS: We conducted a retrospective analysis of HIV clinic based cohort (1996-2000). The EQ-5D includes single item measures of: mobility, self-care, usual activities, pain/discomfort, and anxiety/depression. Each item is coded using 3-levels (1 = no problems; 2 = some problems; 3 = severe problems). The instrument includes a global rating of current health using a visual analog scale (VAS) ranging from 0 (worst imaginable) to 100 (best imaginable). An additional single item measure of health change (better, much the same, worse) was included. A predicted VAS (pVAS) was estimated by regressing the 5 EQ-5D health states on VAS using reference cell coding of health states and random effects linear models. Survival models were fit using Cox modelling. Hospitalization and ED rate models were estimated using population-averaged Poisson models. RESULTS: 965 patients met eligibility criteria. 12% were female; 42% were non-white. Median time-at-risk was 1.2 years. Median CD4 was 233. Median log10(pVL) was 4.6. 47 deaths occurred. In two Cox models controlling for CD4 and pVL, the adjusted hazard ratios (aHR) for VAS and pVAS as time-varying covariates were 0.73 (95% CI: 0.63-0.83) and 0.66 (95% CI: 0.56-0.77) respectively, for every 10 point increase in (p)VAS rating. In Poisson regression models predicting ED visit rates and hospital discharge rates controlling for current CD4 and pVL, each of the EQ-5D health dimensions, VAS, and health change items were significantly (p < 0.05) associated with the outcomes. For ED visit rates, the adjusted incidence rate ratios (aIRR) were 0.86 (0.83-0.89) and 0.79 (0.75-0.82) for VAS and pVAS, respectively. For hospital discharge rates, the aIRR's were 0.85 (0.82-0.88) and 0.79 (0.75-0.82) for VAS and pVAS, respectively. CONCLUSION: EQ-5D is a brief and prognostically useful predictor of mortality, hospitalization, and ED utilization among adults under care for HIV infection, even after adjusting for CD4 and HIV plasma viral load.},

abstract = {Recent work has shown that one can learn the structure of Gaussian Graphical Models by imposing an L1 penalty on the precision matrix, and then using efficient convex opti- mization methods to find the penalized max- imum likelihood estimate. This is similar to performing MAP estimation with a prior that prefers sparse graphs. In this paper, we use the stochastic block model as a prior. This prefer graphs that are blockwise sparse, but unlike previous work, it does not require that the blocks or groups be specified a priori. The resulting problem is no longer convex, but we devise an efficient variational Bayes algo- rithm to solve it. We show that our method has better test set likelihood on two differ- ent datasets (motion capture and gene ex- pression) compared to independent L1, and can match the performance of group L1 us- ing manually created groups.},

abstract = {INTRODUCTION: Although there is evidence for distinct behavioural sub-phenotypes in Alzheimer's disease (AD), their inter-relationships and the effect of clinical variables on their expression have been little investigated. METHODS: We have analysed a sample of 1850 probable AD patients from the UK and Greece with 10 item Neuropsychiatric Inventory (NPI) data. We applied a Multiple Indicators Multiple Causes (MIMIC) approach to investigate the effect of MMSE, disease duration, gender, age and age of onset on the structure of a four-factor model consisting of "psychosis", "moods", "agitation" and "behavioural dyscontrol". RESULTS: Specific clinical variables predicted the expression of individual factors. When the inter-relationship of factors is modelled, some previously significant associations are lost. For example, lower MMSE scores predict psychosis, agitation and behavioural dyscontrol factors, but psychosis and mood predict the agitation factor. Taking these associations into account MMSE scores did not predict agitation. CONCLUSIONS: The complexity of the inter-relations between symptoms, factors and clinical variables is efficiently captured by this MIMIC model.},

abstract = {OBJECTIVE: To examine the feasibility and reliability of the Medical Outcomes Study 36 Item Short Form Health Survey (SF-36) for patients with schizophrenia, focusing on the eight scales and various aggregate summary measures. STUDY DESIGN AND SETTING: Secondary analysis of data from the European multicenter QUATRO medication adherence trial and the Regional Psychosis Project from The Netherlands. Methods included exploratory and confirmatory factor analyses and estimation of aggregate score reliability using Cronbach's alpha and Tarkkonen's generalized reliability index. The aggregate scores that were compared included two sets based on factor analyses, the standard "physical and mental health component summary scores" (PCS and MCS) and scores based on the original conceptual model of the SF-36 (simple sum of first four scales for physical health, last four for mental health). RESULTS: The eight SF-36 scales were feasible to administer and reliable. Factor analyses of the QUATRO baseline scale data suggested two or three factors, the latter solution including a general "role limitation" factor. Aggregate scores based on the conceptual model had the highest generalized reliability of those compared. CONCLUSION: SF-36 scales are suitable for patients with schizophrenia. Aggregate scores based on the conceptual model may be preferable to the MCS and PCS for such patients. Further investigation of factor structure is advisable.},

abstract = {The major mood disorders, which include bipolar disorder and major depressive disorder (MDD), are considered heritable traits, although previous genetic association studies have had limited success in robustly identifying risk loci. We performed a meta-analysis of five case-control cohorts for major mood disorder, including over 13,600 individuals genotyped on high-density SNP arrays. We identified SNPs at 3p21.1 associated with major mood disorders (rs2251219, P = 3.63 x 10(-8); odds ratio = 0.87; 95% confidence interval, 0.83-0.92), with supportive evidence for association observed in two out of three independent replication cohorts. These results provide an example of a shared genetic susceptibility locus for bipolar disorder and MDD.},

title = {Incremental online learning in high dimensions},
abstract = {Locally weighted projection regression (LWPR) is a new algorithm for incremental nonlinear function approximation in high-dimensional spaces with redundant and irrelevant input dimensions. At its core, it employs nonparametric regression with locally linear models. In order to stay computationally efficient and numerically robust, each local model performs the regression analysis with a small number of univariate regressions in selected directions in input space in the spirit of partial least squares regression. We discuss when and how local learning techniques can successfully work in high-dimensional spaces and review the various techniques for local dimensionality reduction before finally deriving the LWPR algorithm. The properties of LWPR are that it (1) learns rapidly with second-order learning methods based on incremental training, (2) uses statistically sound stochastic leave-one-out cross validation for learning without the need to memorize training data, (3) adjusts its weighting kernels based on only local information in order to minimize the danger of negative interference of incremental learning, (4) has a computational complexity that is linear in the number of inputs, and (5) can deal with a large number of-possibly redundant-inputs, as shown in various empirical evaluations with up to 90 dimensional data sets. For a probabilistic interpretation, predictive variance and confidence intervals are derived. To our knowledge, LWPR is the first truly incremental spatially localized learning method that can successfully and efficiently operate in very high-dimensional spaces.},

title = {Evolutionary algorithms for the selection of single nucleotide polymorphisms},
abstract = {BACKGROUND: Large databases of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) are available for use in genomics studies. Typically, investigators must choose a subset of SNPs from these databases to employ in their studies. The choice of subset is influenced by many factors, including estimated or known reliability of the SNP, biochemical factors, intellectual property, cost, and effectiveness of the subset for mapping genes or identifying disease loci. We present an evolutionary algorithm for multiobjective SNP selection. RESULTS: We implemented a modified version of the Strength-Pareto Evolutionary Algorithm (SPEA2) in Java. Our implementation, Multiobjective Analyzer for Genetic Marker Acquisition (MAGMA), approximates the set of optimal trade-off solutions for large problems in minutes. This set is very useful for the design of large studies, including those oriented towards disease identification, genetic mapping, population studies, and haplotype-block elucidation. CONCLUSION: Evolutionary algorithms are particularly suited for optimization problems that involve multiple objectives and a complex search space on which exact methods such as exhaustive enumeration cannot be applied. They provide flexibility with respect to the problem formulation if a problem description evolves or changes. Results are produced as a trade-off front, allowing the user to make informed decisions when prioritizing factors. MAGMA is open source and available at http://snp-magma.sourceforge.net. Evolutionary algorithms are well suited for many other applications in genomics.},

Using 2 versions of an inventory developed from the International Personality Item Pool (IPIP; Goldberg, 1999), this is one of the first cross-national analyses of these IPIP measures. A large sample of university students (N = 519) used the translated Croatian version of the 100-item IPIP Big Five inventory to describe themselves, and they were also described by 515 of their acquaintances on the same instrument. In separate analyses of both self-reports and peer ratings, the 100-item and 50-item versions of these IPIP measures showed clear Five-factor orthogonal structures that were nearly identical to the American structure. These factors were strongly related on a one-to-one basis with those derived from a Croatian translation of Goldberg's (1992) bipolar rating scales.},

The functional organization of this system embodies a distinction between the representation of invariant aspects of faces, which is the basis for recognizing individuals, and the representation of changeable aspects, such as eye gaze, expression, and lip movement, which underlies the perception of information that facilitates social communication. The system also has a hierarchical organization. A core system, consisting of occipitotemporal regions in extrastriate visual cortex, mediates the visual analysis of faces. An extended system consists of regions from neural systems for other cognitive functions that can act in concert with the core system to extract meaning from faces. Of regions in the extended system for face perception, the amygdala plays a central role in processing the social relevance of information gleaned from faces, particularly when that information may signal a potential threat.},

2. A number of recent studies have used a type of mixed-effects model, known as the animal model, to estimate the genetic component of phenotypic variation using data collected in the field. Here, we provide a practical guide for ecologists interested in exploring the potential to apply this quantitative genetic method in their research.

title = {Sparse Discriminant Analysis},
abstract = {Classification in high-dimensional feature spaces where interpreta- tion and dimension reduction are of great importance is common in biological and medical applications. For these applications standard methods as microarrays, 1D NMR, and spectroscopy have become ev- eryday tools for measuring thousands of features in samples of interest. Furthermore, the samples are often costly and therefore many such problems have few observations in relation to the number of features. Traditionally such data are analyzed by first performing a feature se- lection before classi􏰌cation. We propose a method which performs linear discriminant analysis with a sparseness criterion imposed such that the classification, feature selection and dimension reduction is merged into one analysis. The sparse discriminant analysis is faster than traditional feature selection methods based on computationally heavy criteria such as Wilk's lambda, and the results are better with regards to classification rates and sparseness. The method is extended to mixtures of Gaussians which is useful when e.g. biological clusters are present within each class. Finally, the methods proposed provide low-dimensional views of the discriminative directions.},

title = {A simple computational method for the identification of  disease-associated loci in complex, incomplete pedigrees},
abstract = { We present an approach, called the "Shadow Method," for the identification of disease loci from dense genetic marker maps in complex, potentially incomplete pedigrees. "Shadow" is a simple method based on an analysis of the patterns of obligate meiotic recombination events in genotypic data. This method can be applied to any high density marker map and was specifically designed to exploit the fact that extremely dense marker maps are becoming more readily available. We also describe how to interpret and associate meaningful P-Values to the results. Shadow has significant advantages over traditional parametric linkage analysis methods in that it can be readily applied even in cases in which the topology of a pedigree or pedigrees can only be partially determined. In addition, Shadow is robust to variability in a range of parameters and in particular does not require prior knowledge of mode of inheritance, penetrance or clinical misdiagnosis rate. Shadow can be used for any SNP data, but is especially effective when applied to dense samplings. Our primary example uses data from Affymetrix 100k SNPChip samples in which we illustrate our approach by analyzing simulated data as well as genome-wide SNP data from two pedigrees with inherited forms of kidney failure, one of which is compared with a typical LOD score analysis. },

abstract = {Behavioral problems in young children can be assessed by asking their parents or teachers to rate their behaviors. Genetic analyses of parental ratings show relatively large heritabilities for emotional and behavioral problems in young children, but data from teachers for this age group are scarce. Sources of variation in the Teacher's Report Form (TRF) problem scales were examined. The TRF was completed for 211 Dutch 5-year-old twin pairs and 4 single twins. Twins rated by different teachers had higher means and variances than twins rated by the same teacher, in addition twin correlations were lower in this group. In both groups monozygotic (MZ) correlations were generally higher than dizygotic (DZ) correlations. A model for twin resemblance was tested that allowed for these effects. For 5 problem scales (Withdrawn, Social Problems, Aggressive Behavior, Rule Breaking Behavior and Attention Problems) a model with genetic and unique environmental sources of variation fitted best to the data. For 3 problem scales (Anxious/Depressed, Thought Problems and Somatic Complaints) there were familial influences but it was not possible to distinguish between common environmental influences or genetic influences. Heritability was 63% for Attention problems, around 45% for Withdrawn, Social Problems, Aggressive Behavior and Rule Breaking Behavior, and around 30% for Anxious/Depressed, Thought Problems and Somatic Complaints.},

title = {Do the dimensions of the temperament and character inventory map a simple genetic architecture? Evidence from molecular genetics and factor analysis},
abstract = {OBJECTIVE: It has been reported that the human temperament dimensions of novelty seeking and harm avoidance are associated with polymorphisms in the D(4) dopamine receptor gene (D4DR) and the serotonin-transporter-linked promoter region (5-HTTLPR), respectively. Although these findings are consistent with Cloninger's hypothesized psychobiological model of temperament and character, many studies failed to replicate these findings. In the present study the authors tested whether the psychobiological model taps the genetic architecture of personality by exploring associations between these candidate genes and the dimensions of the Temperament and Character Inventory and by examining its phenotypic structure. METHOD: Of the 946 male and female participants in the Baltimore Longitudinal Study of Aging to whom the Temperament and Character Inventory was administered, 587 were genotyped for a polymorphism with a 48-base-pair repeat in the D4DR gene and 425 were genotyped for a 44-base-pair insertion or deletion in the 5-HTTLPR polymorphism. RESULTS: There was no significant association between D4DR polymorphisms and novelty seeking. The authors also failed to find an association between 5-HTTLPR polymorphisms and harm avoidance. The factor structure of the Temperament and Character Inventory did not reveal the hypothesized phenotypic structure. CONCLUSIONS: This investigation produced no support for the temperament-character model at either the biological or psychological level.},

When covaried for mean global cortical thickness, PCA, cluster analyses, and graph models identified genetically mediated fronto-parietal and occipital networks. Graph theoretical models suggest that the observed genetically mediated relationships follow small world architectural rules.

abstract = {Abstract Large multidimensional data matrices are frequent in biology. However, statistical methods often have difficulties dealing with such matrices because they contain very complex data sets. Consequently variable selection and dimensionality reduction methods are often used to reduce matrix complexity, although at the expense of information conservation. A new method derived from multidimensional scaling (MDS) is presented for the case where two matrices are available to describe the same population. The presented method transforms one of the matrices, called the target matrix, with some constraints to make it fit with the second matrix, referred to as the reference matrix. The fitting to the reference matrix is performed on the distances computed for the two matrices, and the transformation depends on the problem at hand. A special feature of this method is that a variable can be only partially modified. The method is applied on the exclusive-or (XOR) problem and then on a biological application with large-scale gene expression data.},

title = {Neuropsychological findings in childhood neglect and their relationships to pediatric PTSD},
abstract = {Although child neglect is the most prevalent form of child maltreatment, the neurocognitive effects of neglect are understudied. We examined IQ, reading, mathematics, and neurocognitive domains of fine-motor skills, language, visual-spatial, memory/learning, and attention/executive functions in two groups of nonsexually abused medically healthy neglected children, one with DSM-IV posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and one without, and a demographically similar healthy nonmaltreated control group. Significantly lower IQ, reading, mathematics, and selected differences in complex visual attention, visual memory, language, verbal memory and learning, planning, problem solving, and speeded naming were seen in Neglect Groups. The Neglect with PTSD Group performed worse than controls on NEPSY Design Copying, NEPSY Tower, and Mathematics; and performed worse than controls and Neglect without PTSD on NEPSY Memory for Faces-Delayed. Negative correlations were seen between PTSD symptoms, PTSD severity, and maltreatment variables, and IQ, Academic Achievement, and neurocognitive domains. Neglected children demonstrated significantly lower neurocognitive outcomes and academic achievement than controls. Lower IQ, neurocognitive functions, and achievement may be associated with more PTSD symptoms (particularly re-experiencing symptoms), greater PTSD severity, and a greater number of maltreatment experiences. Trauma experiences may additionally contribute to subsequent neurodevelopmental risk in neglected children. (JINS, 2009, 15, 868-878.).},

abstract = {This paper reports two experiments designed to investigate whether lexical bias in phonological speech errors is caused by immediate feedback of activation, by self-monitoring of inner speech, or by both. The experiments test a number of predictions derived from a model of self-monitoring of inner speech. This model assumes that, after an error in inner speech, (1) an early interruption of speech may be made when speech was initiated too hastily, (2) the error may be covertly repaired, leading to the correct target, (3) the error may be covertly replaced by another speech error, or (4) an error may go undetected, leading to a completed spoonerism. This model of self-monitoring was supported by the speech errors observed in two SLIP experiments. The pattern of results supports the idea that lexical bias has two sources, immediate feedback of activation and self-monitoring of inner speech.},

abstract = {The goal of dynamic causal modelling (DCM) of neuroimaging data is to study experimentally induced changes in functional integration among brain regions. This requires (i) biophysically plausible and physiologically interpretable models of neuronal network dynamics that can predict distributed brain responses to experimental stimuli and (ii) efficient statistical methods for parameter estimation and model comparison. These two key components of DCM have been the focus of more than thirty methodological articles since the seminal work of Friston and colleagues published in 2003. In this paper, we provide a critical review of the current state-of-the-art of DCM. We inspect the properties of DCM in relation to the most common neuroimaging modalities (fMRI and EEG/MEG) and the specificity of inference on neural systems that can be made from these data. We then discuss both the plausibility of the underlying biophysical models and the robustness of the statistical inversion techniques. Finally, we discuss potential extensions of the current DCM framework, such as stochastic DCMs, plastic DCMs and field DCMs.},

abstract = {BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: The goal was to develop a shortened version of the EORTC QLQ-C30 for use in palliative care. We wanted to keep as few items as possible in each scale while still being able to compare results with studies using the original scales. We examined the possibilities of shortening the physical functioning, cognitive functioning, fatigue, and nausea and vomiting scales. STUDY DESIGN AND SETTING: The shortening was based on 2,366 (physical functioning) and 10,815 (three other scales) observations, respectively. We used item response theory to construct scoring algorithms for predicting scores on the original scales. RESULTS: Evaluations showed that a three-item physical scale, a two-item fatigue scale, and a one-item nausea or vomiting scale predicted the scores on the original scales with excellent agreement and had measurement abilities similar to the original scales with no loss or only a little loss in power to detect group differences. The results of the cognitive functioning scale indicated problems when predicting scores from a shortened version. CONCLUSION: Given the favorable results for the physical functioning, fatigue, and nausea or vomiting scales we expect that the shortened versions of these scales will be included in the abbreviated version of the EORTC QLQ-C30 for palliative care.},

abstract = {Most of musculoskeletal diseases involve pain and reduced physical functioning. Recognition of the coexistence of more than one musculoskeletal disease is important because they are relatively common and has a substantial impact on health-related quality of life (HRQoL). Our aim was to compare the results of four generic QoL questionnaires-QoL-5, Nottingham Health Profile (NHP), Short Form (SF)-6D, and Visual Analogue Scale (VAS)-in five different patient groups. Two hundred and one patients representing five different disease groups (knee osteoarthritis, osteoporosis, back pain, rheumatoid arthritis and ankylosing spondylitis), randomly selected through the Ankara Numune Education and Research Hospital Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation Outpatient Clinic, were included in the study. Scores indicating low QoL for each of the five diseases compared are reported. Patients in each disease group stated high disability. No strong correlation between any of the scales could be determined, and NHP was identified as the only scale able to differentiate between the diseases. Many instruments are available for measuring HRQoL. The QoL-5, NHP, SF-6D, and VAS are four commonly used generic (i.e., not disease-specific) measures for quantifying HRQoL in patients with musculoskeletal disorders. Most studies have focused on only one musculoskeletal disease, but comorbidity of musculoskeletal disorders is common. We emphasize in this study the effect of multiple musculoskeletal diseases on HRQoL.},

title = {The reliability and validity of two HIV-specific health-related Quality-of-Life measures: a preliminary analysis},
abstract = {OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the reliability and validity of two HIV-specific Quality-of-Life (QoL) questionnaires in a UK sample. METHOD: Subjects were 99 HIV-seropositive gay men (23 were asymptomatic, 41 were asymptomatic, 35 had AIDS). QoL was measured using two HIV-specific QoL questionnaires. MEASURES: An adaptation of the Medical Outcomes Study questionnaire and a self-completion version of the Health-Related Quality-of-Life Questions. Affect was measured using the Hospital Anxiety and Depression (HAD) Scale. Disease measures included Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) stage, and CD4 and CD8 cell count. RESULTS: Both QoL instruments showed good internal reliability on all scales used. Many of the scales, particularly those related to physical health and functional performance, showed significant correlations with CD4 cell count and other measures of disease progression. Measures of physical health showed a deterioration in QoL as disease progressed from asymptomatic disease to AIDS. In contrast, most subscales purporting to measure psychological aspects of QoL did not correlate significantly with measures of disease progression, nor was there any difference between CDC stages. Subjects' global ratings of QoL were most strongly correlated with the HAD depression scale, although there were also significant correlations with most other QoL scales. CONCLUSION: This study provides further evidence for the reliability and validity of two HIV-specific QoL questionnaires in a wider range of disease stages than hitherto reported and raises issues relevant to the practical use of QoL scales in HIV disease.},

The tanh estimator provides accurate estimates and reliable inferences even when the specified model is not good for as much as half of the data. Seriously ill-fitted counts---outliers---are identified as part of the estimation. A Monte Carlo sampling experiment shows that the tanh estimator produces good results at practical sample sizes even when ten percent of the data are generated by a significantly different process. The experiment shows that, with contaminated data, estimation fails using four other estimators: the nonrobust maximum likelihood estimator, the additive logistic model and two SUR models. Using the tanh estimator to analyze data from Florida for the 2000 presidential election matches well-known features of the election that the other four estimators fail to capture. In an analysis of data from the 1993 Polish parliamentary election, the tanh estimator gives sharper inferences than does a previously proposed heteroscedastic SUR model.},

abstract = {MOTIVATION: In the context of clinical bioinformatics methods are needed for assessing the additional predictive value of microarray data compared to simple clinical parameters alone. Such methods should also provide an optimal prediction rule making use of all potentialities of both types of data: they should ideally be able to catch subtypes which are not identified by clinical parameters alone. Moreover, they should address the question of the additional predictive value of microarray data in a fair framework. RESULTS: We propose a novel but simple two-step approach based on random forests and partial least squares (PLS) dimension reduction embedding the idea of pre-validation suggested by Tibshirani and colleagues, which is based on an internal cross-validation for avoiding overfitting. Our approach is fast, flexible and can be used both for assessing the overall additional significance of the microarray data and for building optimal hybrid classification rules. Its efficiency is demonstrated through simulations and an application to breast cancer and colorectal cancer data.

Subsequently, all subjects underwent positron emission tomography with the radioligand [carbonyl-(11)C]WAY-100635 to quantify 5-HT(1A) binding potentials (BP(ND)s) in the prefrontal cortex, limbic areas, and midbrain. Also, plasma levels of testosterone, 17beta-estradiol and sex hormone-binding globulin (SHBG) were measured. Relations between aggression scores, regional 5-HT(1A) BP(ND)s, and hormone levels were analyzed using correlations, multivariate analyses of variance, and linear regressions. PRINCIPAL OBSERVATIONS: Statistical analyses revealed higher 5-HT(1A) receptor BP(ND)s in subjects exhibiting higher aggression scores in prefrontal (all P < 0.041) and anterior cingulate cortices (P = 0.016). More aggressive subjects were also characterized by lower SHBG levels (P = 0.015). Moreover, higher SHBG levels were associated with lower 5-HT(1A) BP(ND)s in frontal (P = 0.048) and cingulate cortices (all P < 0.013) and in the amygdala (P = 0.03). CONCLUSIONS: The present study provides first-time evidence for a specific interrelation between the 5-HT(1A) receptor distribution, sex hormones, and aggression in humans. Our findings point to a reduced down-stream control due to higher amounts or activities of frontal 5-HT(1A) receptors in more aggressive subjects, which is presumably modulated by sex hormones.},

abstract = {The structure of personality disorder traits was examined in a sample of 400 undergraduates who completed the personality disorder questionnaire from the Structured Clinical Interview for DSM-III-R (SCID-II). The relations between personality disorder and normal personality traits indexed by the Eysenck Personality Questionnaire-Revised (EPQ-R) were examined. The three-cluster model of personality traits--as described in the DSM scheme--found equivocal support. Exploratory principal components analysis and confirmatory factor analysis found four broad factors of personality disorder that overlapped with normal personality traits: an asthenic factor related to neuroticism; an antisocial factor associated with psychoticism; an asocial factor linked to introversion-extraversion; and an anankastic (obsessive-compulsive) factor. There is growing agreement about the number and type of broad personality disorder dimensions; similar dimensions may be found in clinical and non-clinical samples, suggesting that those people with personality disorders differ quantitatively rather than qualitatively from others; and there is substantial overlap between normal and abnormal personality dimensions.},

title = {Cost-effectiveness of MRI compared to mammography for breast cancer screening in a high risk population},
abstract = {BACKGROUND: Breast magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a sensitive method of breast imaging virtually uninfluenced by breast density. Because of the improved sensitivity, breast MRI is increasingly being used for detection of breast cancer among high risk young women. However, the specificity of breast MRI is variable and costs are high. The purpose of this study was to determine if breast MRI is a cost-effective approach for the detection of breast cancer among young women at high risk. METHODS: A Markov model was created to compare annual breast cancer screening over 25 years with either breast MRI or mammography among young women at high risk. Data from published studies provided probabilities for the model including sensitivity and specificity of each screening strategy. Costs were based on Medicare reimbursement rates for hospital and physician services while medication costs were obtained from the Federal Supply Scale. Utilities from the literature were applied to each health outcome in the model including a disutility for the temporary health state following breast biopsy for a false positive test result. All costs and benefits were discounted at 5% per year. The analysis was performed from the payer perspective with results reported in 2006 U.S. dollars. Univariate and probabilistic sensitivity analyses addressed uncertainty in all model parameters. RESULTS: Breast MRI provided 14.1 discounted quality-adjusted life-years (QALYs) at a discounted cost of {\$}18,167 while mammography provided 14.0 QALYs at a cost of {\$}4,760 over 25 years of screening. The incremental cost-effectiveness ratio of breast MRI compared to mammography was {\$}179,599/QALY. In univariate analysis, breast MRI screening became < {\$}50,000/QALY when the cost of the MRI was < {\$}315. In the probabilistic sensitivity analysis, MRI screening produced a net health benefit of -0.202 QALYs (95% central range: -0.767 QALYs to +0.439 QALYs) compared to mammography at a willingness-to-pay threshold of {\$}50,000/QALY. Breast MRI screening was superior in 0%, < {\$}50,000/QALY in 22%, > {\$}50,000/QALY in 34%, and inferior in 44% of trials. CONCLUSION: Although breast MRI may provide health benefits when compared to mammographic screening for some high risk women, it does not appear to be cost-effective even at willingness to pay thresholds above {\$}120,000/QALY.},

abstract = {Cronbach's a is widely used in social science research to estimate the internal consistency of reliability of a measurement scale. However, when items are not strictly parallel, the Cronbach's a coefficient provides a lower-bound estimate of true reliability, and this estimate may be further biased downward when items are dichotomous. The estimation of standardized Cronbach's a for a scale with dichotomous items can be improved by using the upper bound of coefficient phi. SAS and SPSS macros have been developed in this article to obtain standardized Cronbach's a via this method. The simulation analysis showed that Cronbach's a from upper-bound phi might be appropriate for estimating the real reliability when standardized Cronbach's a is problematic.},

abstract = {Children with developmental disorders usually exhibit multiple developmental problems (comorbidities). Hence, such diagnosis needs to revolve on developmental disorder groups. Our objective is to systematically identify developmental disorder groups and represent them in an ontology. We developed a methodology that combines two methods (1) a literature-based ontology that we created, which represents developmental disorders and potential developmental disorder groups, and (2) clustering for detecting comorbid developmental disorders in patient data. The ontology is used to interpret and improve clustering results and the clustering results are used to validate the ontology and suggest directions for its development. We evaluated our methodology by applying it to data of 1175 patients from a child development clinic. We demonstrated that the ontology improves clustering results, bringing them closer to an expert generated gold-standard. We have shown that our methodology successfully combines an ontology with a clustering method to support systematic identification and representation of developmental disorder groups.},

Classical test theory and item-response theory were applied to compare the instruments. The self- and parent-report CHOCI-R had good internal consistency and were strongly related to each other. The self- and parent-report CHOCI-R severity scores correlated with the CY-BOCS (Pearson's r 0.55 and 0.45 respectively). The CY-BOCS discriminated better at the severe end of the spectrum. The CHOCI-R provided better discrimination in the mild to moderate range. The time-efficient self- and parent-report alternatives will enable routine measurement of OCD severity in clinical practice.

abstract = {Huge amounts of money will be spent by industrialized nations during the next decades to obtain detailed maps of continental shelf seabeds. These maps, which will allow a more rational exploitation of the sea floor, are needed to assess the impact of anthropic activities. The statistical method of analysis of echosounder backscatter data described in this paper presents several improvements over existing techniques. The steps are as follows. (i) The backscatter data are decomposed mathematically into a number of quantitative variables, which are subjected to principal component analysis (PCA). (ii) Principal components representing 95--99% of the variation are used in a K- means partitioning procedure. A statistical criterion indicates what the number of groups is that best reflects the variability of the data. (iii) The groups are then plotted on maps of the survey area. Insofar as the mathematical decomposition produces variables that reflect the variations of the physical nature and composition of the seabed, the classes of the partition will correspond to different seabed types.

title = {Correlated genetic and non-shared environmental influences account for the co-morbidity between female sexual dysfunctions},
abstract = {BACKGROUND: Previous studies have shown moderate heritability for female orgasm. So far, however, no study has addressed the pattern of genetic and environmental influences on diverse sexual dysfunctions in women, nor how genetic and environmental factors contribute to the associations between them. METHOD: The sample was drawn from the Genetics of Sex and Aggression (GSA) sample and consisted of 6, 446 female twins (aged 18-43 years) and 1994 female siblings (aged 18-49 years). The participants responded to the Female Sexual Function Index (FSFI), either by post or online. RESULTS: Model fitting analyses indicated that individual differences on all six subdomains of the FSFI (desire, arousal, lubrication, orgasm, satisfaction, and pain) were primarily due to non-shared (individual-specific) environmental influences. Genetic influences were modest but significant, whereas shared environmental influences were not significant. A correlated factors model including additive and non-additive genetic and non-shared environmental effects proved to have the best fit and suggested that both correlated additive and non-additive genetic factors and unique environmental factors underlie the co-occurrence of the sexual function problems. CONCLUSIONS: The findings suggest that female sexual dysfunctions are separate entities with some shared aetiology. They also indicate that there is a genetic susceptibility for sexual dysfunctions. The unique experiences of each individual are, however, the main factors determining if, and which, dysfunction develops.},

abstract = {BACKGROUND: Apathy is usually defined as reduced interest and participation in various activities. It is a frequent consequence of neurological and psychiatric disorders. Although various scoring methods have been proposed, there is a lack of validated, standardised instruments for detecting apathy and assessing its severity. OBJECTIVE: To develop an apathy rating scale using a structured standardised interview capable of distinguishing between the condition's various features. METHODS: The Lille Apathy Rating Scale (LARS) is based on a structured interview. It includes 33 items, divided into nine domains. Responses are scored on a dichotomous scale. The participants used to validate the scale consisted of 159 patients with probable Parkinson's disease and 58 healthy control subjects. The Marin Apathy Scale, the Montgomery and Asberg Depression Rating Scale, and the Mattis Dementia Rating Scale were also administered. RESULTS: Principal component analysis showed that the LARS probed a single construct which forms the root of an oblique factor structure reflecting four dimensions: intellectual curiosity, self awareness, emotion, and action initiation. The main psychometric properties of the LARS (internal consistency, inter-rater and test-retest reliability) were satisfactory. Concurrent validity was evaluated by reference to the Marin scale and to judgements provided by expert clinicians. CONCLUSIONS: Standard validity indices showed that the LARS is sensitive and capable of distinguishing between apathy and depression. As a screening tool, the scale is able to support dichotomous judgements accurately and, when greater measurement sensitivity is required, also determine the severity of apathy within a four category classification.},

abstract = {AIM: Depressive and anxiety symptoms are common in new mothers. The aim of this study is to explore the link between postpartum psychological adjustment and feeding preferences of the mothers. METHODS: Sixty mothers and newborns were enrolled in this prospective, longitudinal study. Maternal depressive symptoms were screened by the Edinburgh Postpartum Depression Scale (EPDS), and maternal anxiety level was assessed by the State-Trait Anxiety Inventory at 1 month postpartum. The Multidimensional Scale of Perceived Social Support was used for the assessment of maternal social support. The Adult Attachment Scale was used to determine the attachment style of the mother. Infants were examined and evaluated at 1 and 4 months of life. RESULTS: All mothers started breastfeeding their infants postpartum; 91% and 68.1% continued exclusive breastfeeding at 1 and 4 months, respectively. The first-month median EPDS score of mothers who breastfeed at the fourth month was statistically significantly lower than those who were not breastfeeding (6 and 12, respectively) (P = 0001). The first-month median EPDS score of mothers with secure attachment was lower than the median score of mothers with insecure attachment (5 and 9, respectively) (P < 0001). Exclusive breastfeeding rate was not statistically different among mothers with secure and insecure attachment styles. The median state and trait anxiety scores and social support scores of mothers were not different between groups according to breastfeeding status. CONCLUSIONS: This study has shown an association between higher EPDS scores and breastfeeding cessation by 4 months after delivery.},

abstract = {BACKGROUND: Because of the recency of the large numbers of youth diagnosed with type 2 diabetes (T2D), measures of adherence behavior and family response to diabetes have not been developed or tested. OBJECTIVE: The objective of this study is to identify whether questionnaires on personal and family behaviors regarding the care of diabetes previously used with youth with type 1 diabetes (T1D) are reliable and related to metabolic control among youth with T2D. DESIGN/METHODS: During a regularly scheduled visit, youth with T2D and a parent/guardian were invited to participate in the study. Youth and a parent completed questionnaires and one 24-h dietary recall at the visit. During the following 2 wk, each youth completed two telephone dietary recalls and physical activity questionnaires. RESULTS: Child-reported scales measuring parental reminding, positive family behavior, self-care behaviors, and self-efficacy and maternal report of child self-care behaviors and maternal self-efficacy were found to have adequate internal consistency. Only parental reminding was related to metabolic control. Those youth reporting higher parental reminding were in poorer metabolic control. CONCLUSIONS: These scales appear to be reliable with youth with T2D in south Texas.},
