Pesticide exposure and risk of Parkinson's disease: a family-based case-control studyDana B Hancock
Center for Human Genetics, Duke University Medical Center, Durham, NC, USA
BMC Neurol 8:6. 2008..Pesticides and correlated lifestyle factors (e.g., exposure to well-water and farming) are repeatedly reported risk factors for Parkinson's disease (PD), but few family-based studies have examined these relationships...
Smoking, caffeine, and nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs in families with Parkinson diseaseDana B Hancock
Center for Human Genetics and Department of Medicine, Duke University Medical Center, Durham, NC, USA
Arch Neurol 64:576-80. 2007..To assess associations between Parkinson disease (PD) and putatively protective factors-smoking, caffeine (coffee, tea, and soft drinks), and nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (aspirin, ibuprofen, and naproxen)...
Nitric oxide synthase genes and their interactions with environmental factors in Parkinson's diseaseDana B Hancock
University Program in Genetics and Genomics, Duke University, Durham, NC 27710, USA
Neurogenetics 9:249-62. 2008..021) and rs1060826 (p = 0.013). These data implicate NOS1 and NOS2A as genetic risk factors for PD and demonstrate that their interactions with established environmental factors may modulate the environmental effects...
Methods for interaction analyses using family-based case-control data: conditional logistic regression versus generalized estimating equationsDana B Hancock
Center for Human Genetics, Duke University Medical Center, Durham, NC, USA
Genet Epidemiol 31:883-93. 2007..g., population stratification) and the interpretation of its OR estimates...
NOS2A and the modulating effect of cigarette smoking in Parkinson's diseaseDana B Hancock
Center for Human Genetics, Duke University Medical Center, Durham, NC 27710, USA
Ann Neurol 60:366-73. 2006..NOS2A is a candidate gene for Parkinson's disease (PD) that potentially interacts with cigarette smoking. We examined NOS2A for association with PD risk and age at onset (AAO) and for interaction with smoking...
Population-based case-control association studiesDana B Hancock
Duke University Medical Center, Durham, North Carolina, USA
Curr Protoc Hum Genet . 2007..Readers are referred to basic texts on epidemiology for more details on general conduct of case-control studies...
