We evaluated the influence of an antioxidant and zinc nutritional supplement [the Age-Related Eye Disease Study (AREDS) formulation] on delaying or preventing progression to neovascular AMD (NV) in persons with age-related macular degeneration (AMD). AREDS subjects (n = 802) with category 3 or 4 AMD at baseline who had been treated with placebo or the AREDS formulation were evaluated for differ...

background: previous studies have revealed significant differences between populations for genotypic frequencies of glutathione s-transferase t1 ( gstt1 ) and m1 ( gstm1 ) polymorphisms. in order to find the frequency of the null genotypes of gstm1 and gstt1 in iranian populations, the present study was carried out. methods: the total study subjects consisted of 1340 unrelated healthy muslims/i...

Neutrosophic Genetics is the study of genetics using neutrosophic logic, set, probability, statistics, measurement, and other tools procedures. In this paper, based on Theory Evolution (that includes degrees Evolution, Neutrality (or Indeterminacy), Involution) – as an extension Darwin’s we show applicability neutrosophy in genetics, present within frame following concepts: mutation, speciation...

The inference of regulatory and biochemical networks from large-scale genomics data is a basic problem in molecular biology. The goal is to generate testable hypotheses of gene-to-gene influences and subsequently to design bench experiments to confirm these network predictions. Coexpression of genes in large-scale gene-expression data implies coregulation and potential gene-gene interactions, b...

spherical equivalent (se) has not been linked to increased cardiovascular morbidity. methods: 132 hungarian twins (age 43.3±16.9 years) underwent refraction measurements (huvitz mrk-3100 premium autorefractokeratometer) and oscillometry (tensiomed arteriograph). results: heritability analysis indicated major role for genetic components in the presence of right and left se (82.7%, 95%ci, 62.9 to...

introduction: pathophysiology of cancer is based on genetic instabilities. this can explain recent important role of genetic studies in such diseases. defects can be large (on molecular scale) at the level of chromosomal or small in nucleotide level, which eventually causes to irreversible change in the cell. conventional technical methods in cancer genetics are generally based on molecular or ...
