Genetics of Community-Acquired Pneumonia
Seminars in Respiratory and Critical Care Medicine, 2005The variable clinical presentation of community-acquired pneumonia (CAP) suggests a genetic predisposition. Specific mutations or polymorphisms in host response genes such as pattern recognition molecules (PRMs), inflammatory molecules, and the coagulation system are likely to play a role in this variable response to CAP.

Genetics in community-acquired pneumonia
Current Opinion in Pulmonary Medicine, 2019Host defense against community-acquired pneumonia depends on an intact innate and acquired immune system. This review analyses the correlation between specific defects and polymorphisms of immunity genes with susceptibility for pneumonia.Mutations in BTK, Bruton's tyrosine kinase, lead to X-linked agammaglobulinemia, a disease characterized by ...

COMMUNITY GENETICS AND COMMUNITY SELECTION
Ecology, 2003These two papers under discussion (Neuhauser et al. 2003, Whitham et al. 2003) use James Collins' term "community genetics" (Antonovics 1992) to cover a diversity of topics, some new, some old, but worth revisiting or with a new twist. We will attempt to identify the major themes and add yet another important meaning to the idea of "community genetics."

Genetics of Communication Disorders
2007A communication disorder is an inability to understand and/or use speech and language to relate to others. For the majority of communication disorders, we do not understand the cause. We know that many result from hearing impairment, intellectual disabilities, cerebral palsy, mental retardation, and cleft lip and/or cleft palate. Over the past 10 years,

Putting the genes into community genetics
Molecular Ecology, 2019As part of the long‐term fusion of evolutionary biology and ecology (Ford, 1964), the field of community genetics has made tremendous progress in describing the impacts of plant genetic variation on community and ecosystem processes. In the “genes‐to‐ecosystems” framework (Whitham et al., 2003), genetically based traits of plant species have ecological

Genetics and Community Health Nursing
Holistic Nursing Practice, 1998Genetic discoveries affect the practice of community health nurses. These nurses identify groups at risk for genetic diseases and participate in newborn screening, carrier detection testing, and presymptomatic genetic testing programs. Community health nurses also provide direct nursing care to individuals with genetic disorders.

A Genetic Basis to Community Repeatability and Stability
Ecology, 2010Recent studies have shown that genetically based traits of plants can structure associated arthropod and microbial communities, but whether the effects are consistent and repeatable across years is unknown. If communities are both heritable (i.e., related individuals tend to support similar communities) and repeatable (i.e., the same patterns observed ...

Genetics and Health Communication: A Primer
Health Communication, 2014The progress of genetic knowledge has been swift and steadfast. As we move forward in the genomic era, post Human Genome Project, and continue to explore how one's genes interact with one's environment, it becomes increasingly important for all audiences to have a firm grasp of the vocabulary used in this health context.

Endogamy, consanguinity and community genetics
Journal of Genetics, 2002The population of India is composed of many thousands of subpopulations, divided by geography, language, religion and caste or biraderi (patrilineage) boundaries, with endogamous marriage the norm. The net effect has been the creation of multiple genetic isolates with individual mutation profiles, but to date the clinical consequences of this highly ...
