Descriptive Epidemiology and Prognosis of Pediatric Acute Leukemia in the Afro-Descendant Population of the French West Indies and French Guiana. [PDF]

Cancer Med
ABSTRACT Introduction The epidemiology of acute leukemia (AL) in children in Afro‐descendant (AD) populations is poorly described, and survival is often considered worse in these populations. The aim of this study is to describe the epidemiology and prognosis of childhood AL in the AD population of the French West Indies/French Guiana (FWI/FG ...

Molecular profiling of endometrial cancer in Martinique reveals frequent CCNE1 amplification in poor prognosis tumors [PDF]

Scientific Reports
Purpose In Martinique, there is an unmet need in EC management. Although the incidence rate is similar to that in mainland France, the mortality rate is higher, potentially due to the over-incidence of high-grade tumors.

Seascape Connectivity Shapes Genetic and Species β-Diversity in Tropical Reef Fishes. [PDF]

Ecol Evol
Our study combines species occurrence data from five reef fish families with genomic SNP data for 19 species. A correlation between genetic and species β‐diversity emerges only in the Western Indian Ocean, where higher genetic β‐diversity and significant isolation by distance at both the population and community levels are detected.

A fully automated model to form “dry surface biofilms” under optimal dehydration conditions. application to Enterobacteriaceae in healthcare settings [PDF]

Biofilm
Over ten years ago, bacteria attached to surfaces and surrounded by extracellular polymeric substances were observed on dry surfaces in intensive care units. These structures were named ''dry surface biofilms'' (DSBs). Most in vitro models used to study “

FCGR2A-131R Is Associated with Lupus Nephritis Rather than Non-Lupus Nephritis SLE in an Indigenous African Caribbean Population [PDF]

Current Issues in Molecular Biology
Fc gamma receptors (FcγRs) control humoral and cellular immune responses and maintain the immune system balance. Functional polymorphisms of FcγRs, whose prevalence was dependent on ethnic origin, were found to be associated with systemic lupus ...

Intraspecific and spatial variation in habitat use by sperm whales (Physeter macrocephalus) along the west coast of Martinique [PDF]

PeerJ
For a deep-diving cetacean species like the sperm whale, acoustics is a vital tool for research. This need is especially pressing in the eastern Caribbean, where the habitat of marine mammals overlaps with heavy maritime traffic, leading to noise ...
