Journal of the American Medical Association, 1915 The occurrence of a parasitic disease, which is spread by drinking water, and found in an army force, in a country generally free from these parasites, seems of sufficient interest and importance to warrant a rather extended study of the case. Dracontiasis or guinea-worm disease occurs frequently in Africa and East India.

TRIP13PCH-2 promotes Mad2 localization to unattached kinetochores in the spindle checkpoint response. [PDF]
, 2015 The spindle checkpoint acts during cell division to prevent aneuploidy, a hallmark of cancer. During checkpoint activation, Mad1 recruits Mad2 to kinetochores to generate a signal that delays anaphase onset.

Skeletal pathologies in extant crocodilians as a window into the paleopathology of fossil archosaurs
The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.Abstract Crocodilians, together with birds, are the only extant relatives to many extinct archosaur groups, making them highly important for interpreting paleopathological conditions in a phylogenetic disease bracketing model. Despite this, comprehensive data on osteopathologies in crocodilians remain scarce.
