Mapping Genetic Regulation of Transcription to Identify Functional Variants and Genes Associated with Pancreatic Cancer Risk

Advanced Science
Pancreatic cancer is one of the most lethal malignancies. Genome‐wide association studies (GWAS) identify multiple susceptibility loci, but most map to noncoding regions, leaving variant‐to‐gene links unresolved.

The English past tense as a definite description

Glossa, 2023
There are two major groups of analyses in the literature on the English past tense; existential semantics with domain restriction, and the pronominal (i.e. anaphoric) analysis. In this paper, I discuss a group of data difficult for both of these analyses:

Atomic resolution structure analysis of β′ polymorph crystal of a triacylglycerol: 1,2-dipalmitoyl-3-myristoyl-sn-glycerol

Journal of Lipid Research, 2001
The crystal structure of the β′-2 form of a mixed chain triacylglycerol (TAG), 1,2-dipalmitoyl-3-myristoyl-sn-glycerol (PPM), was determined to a final reliability factor of 0.074.

Legacies of past land use have a stronger effect on forest carbon exchange than future climate change in a temperate forest landscape [PDF]

Biogeosciences, 2018
Forest ecosystems play an important role in the global climate system and are thus intensively discussed in the context of climate change mitigation. Over the past decades temperate forests were a carbon (C) sink to the atmosphere. However, it remains

Clinical effectiveness of procalcitonin- or C-reactive protein-guided antibiotic discontinuation protocols for adult patients who are critically ill with sepsis: a rapid systematic review and meta-analysis. [PDF]

Anaesthesia
Summary Introduction Antibiotics are a first‐line treatment for sepsis, with guidelines recommending a 7‐ to 10‐day course. Prolonged antibiotic use carries significant risks, prompting growing interest in using inflammatory biomarkers, such as procalcitonin or C‐reactive protein, to guide clinical decision‐making on the duration of antibiotic therapy ...

Structural analyses of polymorphic transitions of sn -1,3-distearoyl-2-oleoylglycerol (SOS) and sn -1,3-dioleoyl-2-stearoylglycerol (OSO): assessment on steric hindrance of unsaturated and saturated acyl chain interactions

Journal of Lipid Research, 1999
Polymorphic transformations in two saturated-unsaturated mixed acid triacylglycerols, SOS (sn-1,3-distearoyl-2-oleoylglycerol) and OSO (sn-1,3-dioleoyl-2-stearoylglycerol), have been studied by FT-IR spectroscopy using deuterated specimens in which ...
