The renin-angiotensin aldosterone system and osteoporosis: findings from the Women’s Health Initiative
New users of RAAS inhibitors, including ACE inhibitors and ARBs, have a small increased risk for fracture in the first 3 years of use, with a reduced risk of fracture with longer duration of use.

Benefit/risk for adjuvant breast cancer therapy with tamoxifen or aromatase inhibitor use by age, and race/ethnicity
In early adjuvant breast cancer trial reports, aromatase inhibitors more effectively reduced breast recurrence with lower risk of thromboembolic events and endometrial cancer than tamoxifen, while aromatase i...

Multivitamin and mineral use and breast cancer mortality in older women with invasive breast cancer in the women’s health initiative
Multivitamin use is common in the United States. It is not known whether multivitamins with minerals supplements (MVM) used by women already diagnosed with invasive breast cancer would affect their breast canc...

Open AccessGeneralization of adiposity genetic loci to US Hispanic women
Obesity is a public health concern. Yet the identification of adiposity-related genetic variants among United States (US) Hispanics, which is the largest US minority group, remains largely unknown.

Volumetric and Areal Bone Mineral Density Measures Are Associated with Cardiovascular Disease in Older Men and Women: The Health, Aging, and Body Composition Study
The associations of volumetric (vBMD) and areal (aBMD) bone mineral density measures with prevalent cardiovascular disease (CVD) and subclinical peripheral arterial disease (PAD) were investigated in a cohort ...

An invariant imbedding formulation of coupled-wave theory
An alternative formulation of coupled-wave theory adapted to numerical analyses is developed, using the method of invariant imbedding. Solutions of the coupled-wave equations are represented in terms of a refl...

Image reconstruction from a dielectric volume hologram
The phenomenon of image reconstruction from an absorptionless volume hologram is analyzed using coupled-wave diffraction theory. Reconstruction efficiency formulas are derived, which apply when the hologram in...

General coupled-wave diffraction theory
Coupled-wave theory is developed in full generality for unrestricted grating and polarization geometries. The analysis applies to composite gratings modulated dielectrically, magnetically, and in absorptivity;...

Coupled scalar wave diffraction theory
A simple but accurate coupled-wave theory describing diffraction from a volume grating is developed, which applies to planar diffraction geometries with the electric field polarized normal to the plane of inci...
