A simple new method for estimating null allele frequency from heterozygote deficiency

Graphene segregated on Ni surfaces and transferred to insulators

We report an approach to synthesize high quality graphene by surface segregation and substrate transfer. Graphene was segregated from Ni surface under the ambient pressure by di...

Diagnostic criteria and classification of mastocytosis: a consensus proposal

Establishing rigour in qualitative research: the decision trail

The aim of this paper is to show the way in which the decision trail of a qualitative research process can be maintained. It is argued that the trustworthiness (rigour) of a stu...

Electromagnetic theory of enhanced Raman scattering by molecules adsorbed on rough surfaces

A theory for surface enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) is developed. Effects due to realistic surface geometry and dielectric properties are included. Three sources of enhanced R...

Aligned single-wall carbon nanotubes in composites by melt processing methods

Rape Trauma Syndrome

The authors interviewed and followed 146 patients admitted during a one-year period to the emergency ward of a city hospital with a presenting complaint of having been raped. Ba...

The Surviving Sepsis Campaign: Results of an international guideline-based performance improvement program targeting severe sepsis*

The Campaign was associated with sustained, continuous quality improvement in sepsis care. Although not necessarily cause and effect, a reduction in reported hospital mortality ...

Higher 25-hydroxyvitamin D concentrations are associated with better lower-extremity function in both active and inactive persons aged ≥60 y

Middle East Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus: Another Zoonotic Betacoronavirus Causing SARS-Like Disease

SUMMARY The source of the severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) epidemic was traced to wildlife market civets and ultimately to bats. Subsequent hunting for novel coronavirus...

Abnormal tau phosphorylation at Ser396 in alzheimer's disease recapitulates development and contributes to reduced microtubule binding

The NCBI BioSystems database

The NCBI BioSystems database, found at http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/biosystems/, centralizes and cross-links existing biological systems databases, increasing their utility and t...
