World J Cardiovasc Dis . 2013 Mar; 2(2):50-56. PMID: 23515880
Background: Resting ischemic electrocardiographic abnormalities have been associated with cardiovascular mortality. Simple markers of abnormal autonomic tone have also been associated with diabetes, obesity, and the metabolic syndrome in some...

Qu H, Li Q, Grove M, Lu Y, Pan J, Rentfro A, et al.
Arch Med Res . 2012 Sep; 43(6):482-8. PMID: 22959976
Background And Aims: Elevated alanine aminotransferase (ALT >40 IU/mL) is a marker of liver injury but provides little insight into etiology. We aimed to identify and stratify risk factors associated...

Clin Invest Med . 2012 Aug; 35(4):E237-45. PMID: 22863562
Purpose: This study examined genetic associations of patatin-like phospholipase domain containing 3 gene (PNPLA3) polymorphisms and liver aminotransferases in an extensively documented, randomly recruited Mexican American population at high risk...

Prev Chronic Dis . 2012 Aug; 9:110298. PMID: 22863308
Introduction: Diabetes, hypertension, and hypercholesterolemia are common chronic diseases among Hispanics, a group projected to comprise 30% of the US population by 2050. Mexican Americans are the largest ethnically distinct...

Echocardiography . 2012 Jul; 29(10):1224-32. PMID: 22747630
Background: Framingham risk scores (FRS) were validated in a mostly Caucasian population. Evaluation of subclinical atherosclerosis by carotid ultrasound may improve ascertainment of risk in nonwhite populations. This study aimed...

Molina M, Qu H, Rentfro A, Nair S, Lu Y, Hanis C, et al.
Biochem Biophys Res Commun . 2011 Aug; 412(4):728-31. PMID: 21871445
Objective: Previous studies in mice and humans observed down-regulation of the gene expression of ATP6V1H associated with type 2 diabetes. This study identified prospectively changes in ATP6V1H expression before and...

Qu H, Li Q, Rentfro A, Fisher-Hoch S, McCormick J
PLoS One . 2011 Jun; 6(6):e21041. PMID: 21695082
Objective: The lack of standardized reference range for the homeostasis model assessment-estimated insulin resistance (HOMA-IR) index has limited its clinical application. This study defines the reference range of HOMA-IR index...

Prev Chronic Dis . 2011 Feb; 8(2):A40. PMID: 21324254
Introduction: Rates of obesity and overweight, which frequently lead to type 2 diabetes, have increased dramatically among US children during the past 30 years. We analyzed associations between insulin resistance...
