The association between cognitive ability and body mass index: A sibling-comparison analysis in four longitudinal studies. by Liam Wright, Neil M Davies, David Bann

“…<h4>Background</h4>Body mass index (BMI) and obesity rates have increased sharply since the 1980s. While multiple epidemiologic studies have found that higher adolescent cognitive ability is associated with lower adult BMI, residual and unobserved confounding due to family background may explain these associations. …”

Impact of LDL-C levels on severity and outcome of intracranial haemorrhage: a single-centre retrospective study by Kang-Po Lee, Li-Chi Hsu

“…Moreover, statin use is associated with better long-term outcome and may attenuate the effects of initial LDL-C in ICH patients.Conclusions In patients with ICH, particularly those with deep ICH, lower LDL-C levels are associated with more severe ICH and higher short-term and long-term mortality rates. Further randomised controlled trials are warranted to determine the optimal LDL-C levels in patients with ICH and dyslipidaemia.…”

“…Observations and models employed in this study are consistent in terms of melt rates occurring below the floating ice tongue. Our results suggest that the multidecadal warming of Atlantic Intermediate Water flowing into the cavity below the ice tongue – supplied by the recirculating branch of the West Spitsbergen Current in Fram Strait – is the main driver of the recent major increase in basal melt rates. …”
