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]
The 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 ...

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.

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 ...

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.

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 ...

Best practices for avoiding dominant experimental bias in analysis of multielectrode array signals [PDF]
Multielectrode arrays (MEA) are broadly used for in vitro cell culture observation. Complete realization of this platform’s potential to the study of disease and development depends on the capability to make 1) reliable and repeatable observations, 2) neuronal network behavior characterizations, and 3) meaningful comparisons between cultures.

Did COVID-19 surveillance system sensitivity change after Omicron? a retrospective observational study in England [PDF]
Background During the COVID-19 pandemic in England, increases and falls in COVID-19 cases were monitored using many surveillance systems (SS). However, surveillance sensitivity may have changed as different variants were introduced to the population, due

Best disease, also known as Best vitelliform macular dystrophy, is an autosomal dominant form of macular degeneration. Here, we have generated an induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC) line derived from a Best disease patient carrying a new dominant ...
