(author), TNO Preventie en Gezondheid (author)Apolipoprotein E (apoE) is one of the major protein constituents of chylomicron and very-low-density lipoprotein (VLDL) remnants and plays a central role as a ligand in the receptor-mediated uptake of these particles by the liver. Including the most common variant, apoE3, 30 apoE variants have been characterized. At present, 14 apoE variants...article 1994

(author), Nederlands Instituut voor Praeventieve Gezondheidszorg TNO (author)To predict height at five years in a cohort of 565 very preterm and/or very low-birth-weight children, hypothesized growth determinants were subjected to discriminant analysis. Many neonatal parameters were not significantly associated with short stature at five years of age. A correct classification of stature (smaller/larger than the 10th...article 1993

Korteling, J.E. (author)When a dual-tracking task, consisting of two incoherent (uncorrelated) subtasks is partly integrated, such that it is characterized by incompatibility of similarity, or when axis similarity of subtasks is high, it may be difficult to map subtask stimuli to the proper responses. Especially for older adults, an increase in mapping demands may be a...article 1993
