Splenic Tropism and Spleen‐Modulated Systemic Inflammation in Acute Plasmodium vivax Malaria
ABSTRACT In chronic Plasmodium vivax (Pv) infection, the spleen accounts for over 98% of total‐body parasite biomass. Whether splenic tropism also occurs in acute infection and how the spleen influences pathogenesis have not been systematically explored. In Papua, Indonesia, we compared clinical and hematology data in 24 spleen‐intact and 25 previously

Expanding the Utility of Exome Sequencing in Preventive and Population Genetics
ABSTRACT Carrier screening is a long‐standing genetic testing process offered to at‐risk couples, with or without a family history, who might have pregnancies affected by an autosomal recessive (AR) or X‐linked (XL) disorder. A total of 276 unrelated individuals, initially referred for rare disorder screening by clinicians, were enrolled in this study ...
