Smart -- sunflower mutant population and reverse genetic tool for crop improvement
(Springer Nature, 2013-01-01)
Background: Sunflower (Helianthus annuus L.) is an important oilseed crop grown widely in various areas of the world. Classical genetic studies have been extensively undertaken for the improvement of this particular oilseed ...

Heritability in the efficiency of nonsense-mediated mrna decay in humans
(Public Library of Science (PLoS), 2010-07-21)
Background: In eukaryotes mRNA transcripts of protein-coding genes in which an intron has been retained in the coding region normally result in premature stop codons and are therefore degraded through the nonsense-mediated ...
Increased risk of cognitive and functional decline in patients with atrial fibrillation: results of the ontarget and transcend studies
(Joule Inc., 2012-02-27)
Background: The role of atrial fibrillation in cognitive impairment and dementia, independent of stroke, is uncertain. We sought to determine the association of atrial fibrillation with cognitive and physical impairment ...
Haemodynamic performance of neuromuscular electrical stimulation (nmes) during recovery from total hip arthroplasty

Background: Patients post total hip arthroplasty (THA) remain at high risk of developing Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT) during the recovery period following surgery despite the availability of effective pharmacological and ...
Identification and characterization of novel associations in the casp8/als2cr12 region on chromosome 2 with breast cancer risk
(Oxford University Press (OUP), 2014-08-28)
Previous studies have suggested that polymorphisms in CASP8 on chromosome 2 are associated with breast cancer risk. To clarify the role of CASP8 in breast cancer susceptibility, we carried out dense genotyping of this ...
Towards linked open gene mutations data
(Springer Nature, 2012-01-01)
Background: With the advent of high-throughput technologies, a great wealth of variation data is being produced. Such information may constitute the basis for correlation analyses between genotypes and phenotypes and, in ...
