Split Genes: Another Surprise from Giardia
Some genes in the candidate early-branching eukaryote Giardia lamblia occur in separate pieces, transcribed from non-contiguous chromosomal locations. The pre-mRNAs from the separate pieces apparently find each other by regions of complementarity and are subsequently spliced together by the spliceosome. Could genes in pieces, transcribed into separate pre-mRNAs, have been an early feature of sp...
متن کاملFumbled handoffs: one dropped ball after another.
Missed follow-up of abnormal test results and resultant delays in diagnosis is a safety issue that is gaining increasing attention.

Fundamental problems remain with evidence-based management. We argue that, rather than being addressed, these problems are treated as digressions. One explanation for this is an ongoing incoherence: the evidence-based approach relegates narrative to a ghetto category of knowledge, but it is itself a narrative.

متن کاملRhythm control in atrial fibrillation--one setback after another.
Atrial fibrillation, the most common sustained arrhythmia observed in hospitalized patients, is associated with substantial morbidity, and its occurrence approximately doubles the rate of death as compared with that of patients in whom sinus rhythm is maintained. The global effect of atrial fibrillation on public health is so great that international professional organizations have integrated t...
متن کاملGive Me Another One!
We investigate the complexity of an optimization problem in Boolean propositional logic related to information theory: Given a conjunctive formula over a set of relations, find a satisfying assignment with minimal Hamming distance to a given assignment that satisfies the formula (NearestOtherSolution, NOSol). We present a complete classification with respect to the relations admitted in the for...
