What factors explain racial differences in lung volumes?
In order to examine the physical characteristics that may determine racial differences in lung volumes, we studied healthy, nonsmoking Caucasian, Chinese and Indian males of similar ages (range 18-51 yrs). We measured spirometric function, flow volume curves, lung volumes, inspiratory and expiratory muscle pressures, alveolar distensibility and diffusing capacity, together with height, weight a...
متن کاملA simple model to explain evolutionary trends of eukaryotic gene architecture and expression
Enormous phylogenetic variation exists in the number and sizes of introns in protein-coding genes. Although some consideration has been given to the underlying role of the population-genetic environment in defining such patterns, the influence of the intracellular environment remains virtually unexplored. Drawing from observations on interactions between co-transcriptional processes involved in...
متن کاملExpression of Gp63 Gene from NIH Strain of Leishmania major in Pichia pastoris
Leishmaniasis is a major infectious disease of considerable public health in more than 86 countries around the world. Several approaches toward vaccine development against this disease have been taken. Glycoprotein (gp63) is conserved among diverse species of Leishmania and has induced immunological responses in murine models. Therefore, this glycoprotein has been considered as a second generat...
متن کاملDo behavioural differences help to explain variations in HIV prevalence in adolescents in sub-Saharan Africa?
OBJECTIVE To compare adolescent risk factors for HIV infection in two countries with high adolescent HIV prevalence and two lower prevalence countries with the aim of identifying risk factors that may help explain differences in adolescent HIV prevalence. METHODS Data were available from two nationally representative surveys (South Africa, Zimbabwe), two behavioural intervention trials (Tanza...
متن کاملDifferences in holistic processing do not explain cultural differences in the recognition of facial expression.
The aim of this study was to investigate the causes of the own-race advantage in facial expression perception. In Experiment 1, we investigated Western Caucasian and Chinese participants' perception and categorization of facial expressions of six basic emotions that included two pairs of confusable expressions (fear and surprise; anger and disgust). People were slightly better at identifying fa...
