Genetic ancestry is known to impact outcomes of genotype-phenotype studies that are designed to identify risk for common diseases in human populations.Failure to control for population stratification due to Accessories genetic ancestry can significantly confound results of disease association studies.Moreover, ancestry is a critical factor in asses
Heart rate variability (HRV), systolic period variability (SPV), and diastolic period variability (DPV) have shown potential for assessing cardiac function.It is unknown whether the time delay between the myocardial electrical and mechanical activities (i.e., electromechanical delay, EMD) also possesses variability, and if it does, whether this EMD
Casearia sylvestris Sw.(Salicaceae) is noted for its morphological and chemical plasticity and pharmacological properties.The present study investigates two of its varieties: C.sylvestris var.sylvestris, predominant in dense Aromatic Oil Blend and humid forests and ecotones and characterized by clerodane diterpenes; and C.sylvestris var.lingua, mai

Abstract Bidirectional enhancer RNA (eRNA) transcription is a widespread response to environmental signals and glucocorticoids.We investigated whether single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) within dynamically regulated eRNA-transcribing regions contribute to genetic variation in asthma.Through applying multivariate regression modeling with permutat
