Mother knows best: dominant females determine offspring dispersal in red foxes (Vulpes vulpes). [PDF]
Relatedness between group members is central to understanding the causes of animal dispersal. In many group-living mammals this can be complicated as extra-pair copulations result in offspring having varying levels of relatedness to the dominant animals,

Muscle effort is best minimized by the right-dominant arm in the gravity field [PDF]
AbstractThe central nervous system (CNS) is thought to develop motor strategies that minimize various hidden criteria, such as end-point variance or effort. A large body of literature suggests that the dominant arm is specialized for such open-loop optimization-like processes whilst the non-dominant arm is specialized for closed-loop control.

Dominant cell method for the best linear assignment [PDF]
Abstract This research aims to present a new method for best solution (B.S) of assignment problem (A.P) in linear programming (L.P). It is like the method by which one can find the (B.S) of transportation problem (T.P) using the dominant cells (D.C) that was called (D.C.T) method.Since the (A.P) is different from (T.P) in some features ...

Recommendations for the use of tolvaptan in autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease: a position statement on behalf of the ERA-EDTA Working Groups on Inherited Kidney Disorders and European Renal Best Practice [PDF]
Recently, the European Medicines Agency approved the use of the vasopressin V2 receptor antagonist tolvaptan to slow the progression of cyst development and renal insufficiency of autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) in adult patients ...

Best Dominants and Subordinants for Certain Sandwich-Type Theorems [PDF]
In this paper, we aim to present a survey on subordination and superordination theorems related to the class of analytic functions defined in a symmetric domain, which is the open unit disc. The results were deduced by making use of a new differential operator.

Fuzzy Best Dominants for Certain Fuzzy Differential Subordinations
This paper aims to present a survey on certain fuzzy subordination properties for analytic functions defined in the open unit disk. The new results are derived by considering a certain differential operator. By making use of two differential properties of the operator we determine sufficient conditions to find the fuzzy best dominants for several fuzzy

BEST1 protein stability and degradation pathways differ between autosomal dominant Best disease and autosomal recessive bestrophinopathy accounting for the distinct retinal phenotypes [PDF]
Mutations in bestrophin-1 (BEST1) are associated with distinct retinopathies, notably three forms with autosomal dominant inheritance and one condition with an autosomal recessive mode of transmission.
