Question: Recently, there has been increasing concern about adverse health effects of exposure to desert dust events. However, the association between dust and the incidence of ischemic heart diseases is unknown. The aim of the present study was to elucidate whether Asian dust (AD), a windblown sand dust originating from mineral soil in China and Mongolia, is associated with the incidence of acute myocardial infarction (AMI).', 'We investigated the data regarding hospitalization because of AMI among 3068 consecutive patients from 4 AMI centers in Fukuoka, Japan, and data for AD from April 2003 to December 2010. We applied a time-stratified case-crossover design to examine the association between AD and the incidence of AMI. Using a conditional logistic regression analysis, we estimated the odds ratios of AMI associated with AD after controlling for ambient temperature and relative humidity. The occurrence of AD events 0 to 4 days before the day of admission was significantly associated with the incidence of AMI. In particular, the occurrence of AD 4 days before admission was significantly associated with the onset of AMI.

Answer: Is desert dust a risk factor for the incidence of acute myocardial infarction in Western Japan?


Question: Some living kidney donors report lost income during recovery from surgery. Little is known about whether concern for living donor's lost income affects the decision to undergo donation evaluation and the willingness of transplant candidates to discuss living kidney donation (LKD) with others.", 'To examine whether transplant patients were told by potential donors about lost income concerns and whether patients chose not to discuss LKD with others due to lost income concerns.', "Kidney transplant patients (185 wait-listed candidates, 171 deceased donor recipients, and 100 live donor recipients) at 2 centers completed a questionnaire to assess whether concern about donor's lost income was a consideration in discussion about LKD with others.", 'One-third (32%) were told by a family member/friend that they were willing to donate but were concerned about potential lost income. The majority of those who expressed financial concern (64%) did not initiate donation evaluation. Many patients (42%) chose not to discuss living donation with a family member/friend due to concern about the impact of lost income on the donor. In the multivariable model, lower annual household income was the only statistically significant predictor of both having a potential donor expressing lost income concern and choosing not to talk to someone because of lost income concern.

Answer: Does concern for Lost Income Following Donation deter Some Patients From Talking to Potential Living Donors?


Question: Gastric cancer (GC) is the third most common cancer in India and is mediated by multiple genetic, epigenetic and environmental risk factors. A single nucleotide polymorphism rs3025058 at -1171 of the stromelysin-1 (matrix metalloproteinase [MMP]-3) promoter is resulting due to insertion/deletion of adenine thought to have an impact on increasing the risk for tumor formation.', 'This study is aimed to understand the role of stromelysin-1 rs3025058 (-1171, 5A/6A) promoter polymorphism in the etiology of GC in Indian population.', 'Genomic DNA was isolated from blood samples of the GC patients and controls. The genotyping of stromelysin-1 rs3025058 (-1171, 5A/6A) promoter polymorphism was carried out by amplification refractory mutation system-polymerase chain reaction method followed by agarose gel electrophoresis.', 'The frequency of 5A/5A, 5A/6A, and 6A/6A genotypes in GC patients were 7.69%, 76.92%, and 15.38%, while in controls were 5.31%, 86.73%, and 7.96%, respectively. There was a significant difference in the distribution of 5A/6A genotype in patients compared to the controls (P < 0.05).

Answer:
Is heterozygosity of stromelysin-1 ( rs3025058 ) promoter polymorphism associated with gastric cancer?
