There is a strong and continuously growing interest in using large electronic healthcare databases to study health outcomes and the effects of pharmaceutical products.However, concerns regarding disease misclassification (i.e.classification click here errors of the disease status) and its impact on the study results are legitimate.Validation is the
Advances in genome sequencing technologies have enabled researchers and click here breeders to rapidly associate phenotypic variation to genome sequence differences.We recently took advantage of next-generation sequencing technology to develop MutMap, a method that allows rapid identification of causal nucleotide changes of rice mutants by whole ge
Many insects are able to walk vertically or upside down on both hard and soft surfaces.In beetles such as the ladybird (Coccinella septempunctata), intermolecular forces between tarsal setae on the footpads of the insects make this movement possible.In prior work, adhesion structures made from polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) that mimic the action of th
Background Cytoreductive surgery was developed as a treatment for peritoneal carcinomatosis.However, this surgery is associated with important complications.The present study aimed to assess the relationship between lactacidemia and the rate of associated complications during the immediate postoperative period in the intensive care unit (ICU) in pa
