Implementing an Indigenous Research Methodology to Develop a Culturally Appropriate Survey and Yarning Protocol: Challenges With Retention of the Aboriginal Health, Ageing and Disability Workforce

Australian Journal of Social Issues, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aboriginal staff play a vital part in improving culturally safe and effective services and supports for Aboriginal people. Research on the Aboriginal workforce helps advance a culturally safe environment for workers and Aboriginal people accessing health and community services.

Co‐Opting MBNL‐Dependent Alternative Splicing Cassette Exons to Control Gene Therapy in Myotonic Dystrophy

Annals of Neurology, EarlyView.
Objective Myotonic dystrophy type 1 (DM1) is a highly variable, multisystemic genetic disorder caused by a CTG repeat expansion in the 3′ untranslated region of DMPK. Toxicity is exerted by repeat‐containing DMPK transcripts that sequester muscleblind‐like (MBNL) proteins and lead to deleterious yet predictable changes in alternative splicing.

Infant mortality rates: Time trends and fractional integration [PDF]

, 2011
This paper examines the time trends in infant mortality rates in a number of countries in the 20th century. Rather than imposing that the error term is a stationary I(0) process, we allow for the possibility of fractional integration and hence for a much

Surviving infant mortality in the hierarchical merging scenario [PDF]

, 2011
We examine the effects of gas expulsion on initially sub-structured and out-of-equilibrium star clusters. We perform $N$-body simulations of the evolution of star clusters in a static background potential before removing that potential to model gas ...

Incidence and Prevalence of Congenital Myopathies ‐ A Population‐Based Study From Western Sweden

Annals of Neurology, EarlyView.
Objective Congenital myopathies are a group of rare genetic muscle disorders. Previous studies have estimated point prevalences which only include surviving individuals. Our aim was to perform an epidemiological study with strict inclusion criteria, using modern diagnostic technology to present both incidences and prevalences, and to describe the ...
