Is lactate concentration in umbilical cord blood gestational age-dependent : a population-based study of 17 867 newborns?
Lactate concentrations in arterial and venous umbilical cord blood are increasing significantly with advancing gestational age.
We associated the EGF genotype G/G with increased risk for HCC; differences in its frequency among black and white subjects might account for differences in HCC incidence between these groups. We developed a model that incorporates EGF genotype and demographic and clinical variables to identify patients at low, intermediate, and high risk for HCC.
