Project description:Validation dataset of 298 ER-positive patients treated with tamoxifen for 5 years. All patients in this dataset have ER+ breast cancer and were uniformly treated with tamoxifen for 5 years. The objective of the study was to correlate levels of genomic markers to outcomes (relapse free survival) in this cohort of uniformly treated patients. Tissue samples were processed and profiled by two different labs (MD Anderson Cancer Center and Jules Bordet Institute).

Project description:PurposeWe hypothesize that measurement of gene expression related to estrogen receptor α (ER; gene name ESR1) within a breast cancer sample represents intrinsic tumoral sensitivity to adjuvant endocrine therapy.MethodsA genomic index for sensitivity to endocrine therapy (SET) index was defined from genes coexpressed with ESR1 in 437 microarray profiles from newly diagnosed breast cancer, unrelated to treatment or outcome. The association of SET index and ESR1 levels with distant relapse risk was evaluated from microarrays of ER-positive breast cancer in two cohorts who received 5 years of tamoxifen alone as adjuvant endocrine therapy (n = 225 and 298, respectively), a cohort who received neoadjuvant chemotherapy followed by tamoxifen and/or aromatase inhibition (n = 122), and two cohorts who received no adjuvant systemic therapy (n = 208 and 133, respectively).ResultsThe SET index (165 genes) was significantly associated with distant relapse or death risk in both tamoxifen-treated cohorts (hazard ratio [HR] = 0.70, 95% CI, 0.56 to 0.88, P = .002; and HR = 0.76, 95% CI, 0.63 to 0.93, P = .007) and in the chemo-endocrine-treated cohort (HR = 0.19; 95% CI, 0.05 to 0.69, P = .011) independently from pathologic response to chemotherapy, but was not prognostic in two untreated cohorts. No distant relapse or death was observed after tamoxifen alone if node-negative and high SET or after chemo-endocrine therapy if intermediate or high SET.ConclusionThe SET index of ER-related transcription predicted survival benefit from adjuvant endocrine therapy, not inherent prognosis. Prior chemotherapy seemed to enhance the efficacy of adjuvant endocrine therapy related to SET index.

Project description:The aim of this study was to construct a prediction model for axillary lymph node metastasis (ALNM) using a DNA microarray assay for gene expression in breast tumor tissues. Luminal A breast cancers, diagnosed by PAM50 testing, were analyzed, and a prediction model (genomic nodal index (GNI)) consisting of 292 probe sets for ALNM was constructed in a training set of patients (n=388), and was validated in the first (n=59) and the second (n=103) validation sets. AUCs of ROC were 0.820, 0.717, and 0.749 in the training, first, and second validation sets, respectively. GNI was most significantly associated with ALNM, independently of the other conventional clinicopathological parameters in all cohorts. It is suggested that GNI can be used to identify the patients with a low risk for ALNM so that sentinel lymph node biopsy can be spared safely. This DATA set: J03 contains 120 (n+ 60, n- 60) samples of the above first and second validation sets from Japan (OUH_1,2). A long time passed, and now it is unclear how these 120 cases were distributed among the first and second validation sets. *Note: This old data has been updated multiple times by others. Then, there are some differences from the original 2014 paper and unclear points still remain. Therefore, do not use it for formal analysis aimed at public insurance coverage etc. This is for research purposes only. Please cite this paper when writing a new paper.

Project description:Background: The Relaxation Sensitivity Index (RSI) measures relaxation-related fears developed and validated in western samples. The RSI captures three facets of fear regarding relaxation: physical, cognitive, and social concerns. This study aimed to translate and identify the factor structure of the Chinese version of the RSI. Methods: In a preliminary study, 26 items were generated mainly by translation and modified from the original RSI. In Study 1, factor analysis and internal consistency reliability analysis were conducted on separated half samples of 597 Chinese college students. In Study 2, test-retest reliability, convergent, and predictive criterion validity were examined based on 465 Chinese college students. Results: Fourteen items were selected based on the factor loading and item prevalence in the preliminary study. Factor analysis based on Study 1 identified three factors: Social appealing, Social performance, and Physical concerns. In general, the RSI demonstrated good internal consistency (αs = 0.750-0.860), convergent validity and predictive criterion validity, while the test-retest reliability is relatively low (rs = 0.525-0.685). Notably, less related to the other two factors, Social performance concerns may be a unique factor solely predicting social anxiety (p <0.001), but not relaxation-induced anxiety (p = 0.442). Conclusion: The Chinese version of the RSI possesses a factor structure different from the western population. The robustness of factor structure and test-retest reliability was not as good as expected. Further research is warranted to explore the validity of the RSI in Chinese samples.

Project description:Data on the climate-related financial policy index (CRFPI) - comprising the global climate-related financial policies adopted globally and the bindingness of the policy - are provided in this paper for 74 countries from 2000 to 2020. The data include the index values from four statistical models used to calculate the composite index as described in [3]. The four alternative statistical approaches were designed to experiment with alternative weighting assumptions and illustrate how sensitive the proposed index is to changes in the steps followed to construct it. The index data shed light on countries’ engagement in climate-related financial planning and highlight policy gaps in relevant policy sectors. Researchers could use the data provided in this paper to study green financial policies further and compare countries, highlighting engagement in specific policy areas or the entire spectrum of climate-related finance policy. Moreover, the data might be used to investigate the relationship between green finance policy adoption and credit market changes and assess their effectiveness in managing credit and financial cycles in the face of climate risks.

Project description:Validation data for segmentation algorithms dedicated to preclinical images is fiercely lacking, especially when compared to the large number of databases of Human brain images and segmentations available to the academic community. Not only is such data essential for validating methods, it is also needed for objectively comparing concurrent algorithms and detect promising paths, as segmentation challenges have shown for clinical images. The dataset we present here is a first step in this direction. It comprises 10 T2-weighted MRIs of healthy adult macaque brains, acquired on a 7 T magnet, along with corresponding manual segmentations into 17 brain anatomic labelled regions spread over 5 hierarchical levels based on a previously published macaque atlas (Calabrese et al., 2015) [1]. By giving access to this unique dataset, we hope to provide a reference needed by the non-human primate imaging community. This dataset was used in an article presenting a new primate brain morphology analysis pipeline, Primatologist (Balbastre et al., 2017) [2]. Data is available through a NITRC repository (https://www.nitrc.org/projects/mircen_macset).

Project description:The data obtained from banking sector of Pakistan aims to enhance the understanding of the Islamic Piety. A semi-structure questionnaire was used to collect data from banking staff in Pakistan. The variable of the dataset is Islamic Piety which comprises of two sub- constructs that is; Islamic spirituality (IS) and Islamic social responsibility (ISR). Mohsen (2007) questionnaire for Islamic Piety was use and collected data from 500 employees. These employees were affiliated with the top nine credit rated banks of Pakistan in the federal and provincial capitals of the country. The data collected from the survey contributes itself to quantitative analysis using both descriptive as well as inferential statistics both of which are needed to respond to the research questions. The two sub-constructs are established based on the data.

Project description:ObjectiveTo examine the ethnic differences in insulin sensitivity (SI) as measured by the minimal model approach (SI-MM) and the reference method, the euglycemic-hyperinsulinemic clamp (EHC).Research design and methodsIn a prospective study design, thirty black Americans (BA) were age, sex, and BMI matched with non-Hispanic whites (NHW). Participants underwent frequently sampled intravenous tolerance test (FSIVGTT) and EHC on 2 separate days during a single visit.ResultsSI-MM values were significantly lower in BA when compared with NHW (0.035 ± 0.025 vs. 0.058 ± 0.036 [dL/min]/[μU/mL]; P = 0.003). However, there were no ethnic differences in SI measured by EHC (0.028 ± 0.012 vs. 0.035 ± 0.019 [dL/min]/[μU/mL]; P = 0.18).ConclusionsSI-MM systematically underestimates SI in BA when compared with NHW. These findings suggest that studies inferring lower SI in BA based on FSIVGTT and SI-MM should be interpreted cautiously.

Project description:Baleen whales have few identifiable external indicators of pregnancy state, making it challenging to study essential aspects of their biology and population dynamics. Pregnancy status in other marine mammals has been determined by measuring progesterone concentrations from a variety of sample matrices, but logistical constraints have limited such studies in free-swimming baleen whales. We use an extensive blubber sample archive and associated calving history data to retrospectively identify samples that correspond to pregnant females and develop a progesterone-based pregnancy test for humpback whales. The lowest pregnant blubber progesterone concentration was 54.97 ng g-1, and the mean for the known-pregnant group was 198.74 ± 180.65 ng g-1. Conversely, females known to be below the minimum age of sexual maturity (juvenile females) had an overall low mean progesterone concentration (0.59 ± 0.25 ng g-1), well below the known-pregnant range. Of the mature females that did not return with a calf (n = 11), three fell within the known-pregnant range (320.79 ± 209.34 ng g-1), while the levels for the remaining eight were two orders of magnitude below the lowest known-pregnant level (1.63 ± 1.15 ng g-1). The proportion of females that did not return with a calf but had values similar to known-pregnant females are consistent with rates of calf mortality, but other potential explanations were considered. Our findings support a validated blubber endocrine assignment of pregnancy corroborated with field life history information, a first for any baleen whale species. The progesterone values we measured were similar to those found in different pregnancy states of other cetaceans and support using blubber biopsy samples for assigning pregnancy in humpback whales. This method can be applied to existing archives or new samples to better study life history and population demography broadly across species and populations.
