Risk Factors Predicting Recurrent Small Intestinal Resection for Crohn’s Disease of the Terminal Ileum by Hanna Binder, Hugh J Freeman

“…Univariate and multivariate analyses of multiple demographic, clinical, laboratory and pathological variables revealed two apparent statistically significant independent risk factors for a second intestinal resection: steroid treatment, likely an indirect indication of more severe disease activity; and the presence of an internal fistula, consistent with the emerging concept of a relatively more aggressive clinical form of Crohn’s disease.…”

Antenatal Corticosteroids: A Risk Factor for the Development of Chronic Disease by Elizabeth Asztalos

“…However, exogenous ACS reduces birth weight which, in turn, is associated with adverse adult outcomes such as coronary heart disease, stroke, hypertension, and type 2 diabetes. The long-term effects of ACS exposure on HPA axis activity and neurological function are well documented in animal studies, and it appears that ACS, regardless of dose exposure, is capable of affecting fetal HPA axis development causing permanent changes in the HPA axis that persists through life and is manifested by chronic illness and behavioral changes. …”

Hole Transfer and the Resulting DNA Damage by Chryssostomos Chatgilialoglu, Andrea Peluso

“…We will discuss the oxidation free energies of the four nucleobases and the electron detachment from DNA, influenced by specific interactions like hydrogen bonding and stacking interactions with neighboring sites in the double strand. The formation of a radical cation (hole) which can migrate through DNA (hole transport), depending on the sequence-specific effects and the allocation of the final oxidative damage, is also addressed. …”
