The Mantel Test, discovered in the 1960s, determines whether two distance metrics on a graph are related. We describe DC-RST, an algorithm to accelerate key step of network science statistical computation associated with DimeCost, approach that is faster Test. DC-RST parallel, divide-and-conquer compute random spanning tree complete n vertices. Relative implementation Wilson’s sequential random...

Examples of phasing macromolecular crystal structures based on single-wavelength anomalous dispersion (SAD) have demonstrated that this approach may have general applications in structural biology. With better data-collection facilities and cryogenic techniques, combined with powerful data-processing, phasing and density-modification programs, the SAD approach may prove simpler than phasing fro...

AIM To identify patients with visceral heterotaxy who are at risk from fulminant sepsis. METHODS We studied 38 patients, 37 having undergone abdominal ultrasound, all 38 having examination of blood films to establish presence of Howell-Jolly bodies, and all 38 documented to have had pneumococcal vaccination and prophylaxis with penicillin. We checked whether the parents were aware of the sple...

Jolly (1982, Biometrics 38, 301-321) presented modifications of the Jolly-Seber model for capture-recapture data, which assume constant survival and/or capture rates. Where appropriate, because of the reduced number of parameters, these models lead to more efficient estimators than the Jolly-Seber model. The tests to compare models given by Jolly do not make complete use of the data, and we pre...

THE-studies of the toxic effects of fluoride on the human system have evoked a very lively interest throughout the world because the public health programmes of fluoridation for the prevention of dental caries have always considered the risk of a remote cumulative intoxication. However, the indices of early intoxication are very poorly defined. The affinity of fluoride for the bones is acknowle...
