Abstract Exposure levels without appreciable human health risk may be determined by dividing a point of departure on a dose–response curve (e.g., benchmark dose) by a composite adjustment factor (AF). An “effect severity” AF (ESAF) is employed in some regulatory contexts.

Computational Approaches for Disease Gene Identification [PDF]
Identifying disease genes from human genome is an important and fundamental problem in biomedical research. Despite many publications of machine learning methods applied to discover new disease genes, it still remains a challenge because of the pleiotropy of genes, the limited number of confirmed disease genes among whole genome and the genetic ...

Meta-analysis of Gene Expression in Neurodegenerative Diseases Reveals Patterns in GABA Synthesis and Heat Stress Pathways [PDF]
Neurodegenerative diseases are characterized as the progressive loss of neural cells, e.g. neurons, glial cells. Ageing, monogenic variations, viral infections, and many other factors are determined and speculated as causes for them. While many individual genes, such as APP for Alzheimer disease and HTT for Huntington disease, and biological pathways ...

ABSTRACT Payment reforms in healthcare can have spillover effects on the care experienced by non‐targeted patients treated by the same provider. Few empirical studies have quantitatively investigated the mechanisms behind these effects. We formulate theory‐driven hypotheses to investigate the spillover mechanisms of a regional payment reform in the ...
