BACKGROUND Understanding gene function and genetic relationships is fundamental to our efforts to better understand biological systems. Previous studies systematically describing genetic interactions on a global scale have either focused on core biological processes in protozoans or surveyed catastrophic interactions in metazoans. Here, we describe a reliable high-throughput approach capable of...

BACKGROUND Low birth weight and slow growth during infancy are associated with increased rates of chronic diseases in adulthood. Associations with risk factors such as fasting glucose and lipids concentrations are weaker than expected based on associations with disease. This could be explained by differences in postprandial responses, which, however, have been little studied. Our aim was to exa...

Hidradenitis suppurativa (HS) is a chronic, debilitating inflammatory skin disease. Crohn’s disease (CD) among the most reported comorbid disorders in HS patients. Concurrent and CD are frequently associated with perianal that requires immunosuppressive therapy surgery. We sought to identify unrecognized IBD using commercially available panel of serologic, genetic, markers high specificity sens...

In this work, the Isoscalar (IS) Giant Dipole Resonance (GDR) and Pygmy (PDR) of 92Mo 100Mo Isotopes were calculated in farmwork self-consistent quasi-particle random phase approximation (QRPA) based on results Hartree-Fock-Bardeen, Cooper Schrieffer (HF-BCS) using 10 Skyrme-type interactions: KDE0v1, eMSL08, SKX, SGOI, v080, SKP, SIV, SIII, SKIII, SGI. The strength distributions isoscalar dipo...

25 26 27 Salmonella genomic island 1 (SGI1) and variants (SGI1-I and the new variant SGI128 O) were mapped in five strains of Proteus mirabilis isolated from humans and food 29 in China. Sequencing showed SGI1 and variants were integrated at the 3’-end of the 30 chromosomal thdF gene as previously described in Salmonella strains. 31

This paper presents an MPI-parallelized version of a matching algorithm for synthetic aperture radar (SAR) images. First the necessity for automated matching and the chosen algorithm are outlined briefly, and the algorithmic structure and the applied parallelization strategy are then presented and discussed. Performance results on a Cray T3D and a PowerChallenge from SGI are given, showing unex...
