Abstract Prenatal factors may influence cardiovascular risk in offspring; however, their role in modifying the association between body mass index (BMI) and blood pressure (BP) in children remains unclear. This cross-sectional study included 769 children (6–13 years) without chronic conditions affecting BP. Systolic and diastolic BP were measured using a standardized protocol. Prenatal and familial data were obtained from parent-completed questionnaires.

To date, there are no studies that have analyzed the possible influence of exposure to prenatal sex hormones on the risk of laryngeal cancer (LC) and premalignant laryngeal lesion-vocal fold leukoplakia (VFL). Digit ratio (2D:4D) is suggested to be a proxy of prenatal sex hormone exposure. To examine 2D:4D in patients with LC and clarify if it could add to the verified risk factors in estimating the overall risk of LC. 511 subjects participated in the study.

AbstractTwenty-two variants of the genes involved in hair pigmentation (OCA2, HERC2, MC1R, SLC24A5, SLC45A2, TPCN2, TYR, TYRP1) were genotyped in a group of 186 Polish subjects, representing a range of hair colours (45 red, 64 blond, 77 dark). A genotype-phenotype association analysis was performed. Using z-statistics and the associated p-value, we identified three variants highly associated with different hair colour categories (rs12913832:A>G in HERC2, rs1805007:T>C and rs1805008:C>T in MC1R).
