Bacille Calmette−Guerin (BCG) vaccination is widely practiced around the world to protect against the mycobacterial infection tuberculosis. BCG is also effective against the pathogenic mycobacteria that cause leprosy and Buruli’s ulcer.

Combining Ability and Heterotic Groups for some New Whit Maize Inbred Lines [PDF]
The main objectives of this study was to estimate combining ability and heterotic groups for 16 white maize inbred lines using line × tester mating design.Thirty-two whitethree-way crosses resulting fromcrosses between 16 inbred lines with two testers(SC

The evidence for non-specific effects (NSE) of vaccinations on all-cause morbidity and mortality among children is growing. However, our understanding of the underlying mechanisms is still limited.

Determinants of Bacille Calmette-Guérin scarification in Danish children
Background: Studies in low-income countries have shown that among Bacille Calmette-Guérin (BCG) vaccinated children, those who develop a BCG-scar have significantly better survival than those who do not develop a scar.

Non-specific abdominal pain and air pollution: a novel association. [PDF]
We studied whether short-term exposure to air pollution was associated with non-specific abdominal pain in epidemiologic and animal studies. Patients visiting the emergency department with non-specific abdominal pain were identified in Edmonton (1992 to

The non-specific and sex-differential effects of vaccines
The textbook view of vaccination is that it functions to induce immune memory of the specific pathogen components of the vaccine, leading to a quantitatively and qualitatively better response if the host is exposed to infection with the same pathogen ...

Age-specific effects of deletions: implications for aging theories
The evolution of aging requires mutations with late-life deleterious effects. Classic theories assume these mutations either have neutral (mutation accumulation) or beneficial (antagonistic pleiotropy) effects early in life, but it is also possible that ...

Can Transcranial Electrical Stimulation Localize Brain Function?
Transcranial electrical stimulation (TES) uses constant (TDCS) or alternating currents (TACS) to modulate brain activity. Most TES studies apply low-intensity currents through scalp electrodes (≤2 mA) using bipolar electrode arrangements, producing weak ...
