BACKGROUND Mucosal human papillomavirus (HPV) infection is a necessary cause of cervical cancer. Vaccine and non-vaccine genotype prevalences may change after vaccine introduction. Therefore, it appears essential to rank HPV genotypes according to their oncogenic potential for invasive cervical cancer, independently of their respective prevalences. METHODS We performed meta-analyses of publis...

Results 96 patients were recruited. The median age was 10.3 years, and 66% (64) were male. All patients had a diagnosis of allergic rhinitis and 84 patients (87.5%) had a diagnosis of asthma. The responder was the child’s mother in 87% of cases. 56% of responders had secondary or tertiary education and 45% of them were atopic. 76% of responders recognized that their children’s doctors had instr...

Spatial variation in growth is a common feature of demersal fish populations which often exist as discrete adult sub-populations linked by a pelagic larval stage. However, it remains unclear whether variation in growth occurs at similar spatial scales for populations of highly migratory pelagic species, such as tuna. We examined spatial variation in growth of albacore Thunnus alalunga across 90...

This article analyzes the main objectives of the scientific voyage to circumnavigate the earth, undertaken by the United States from 1838 to 1842. Charting was one of the most important of the scientific and strategic goals of the exploratory voyage. The initiative for the undertaking was the search for exact positioning on the high seas after the establishment of the longitude system, when nau...
