Genome-Wide Association Study in Two Cohorts from a Multi-generational Mouse Advanced Intercross Line Highlights the Difficulty of Replication Due to Study-Specific Heterogeneity

G3: Genes, Genomes, Genetics, 2020
There has been extensive discussion of the “Replication Crisis” in many fields, including genome-wide association studies (GWAS). We explored replication in a mouse model using an advanced intercross line (AIL), which is a multigenerational intercross ...

Adherence to Protocol Recommendations for Children With Wilms Tumour in Two Consecutive Studies in the United Kingdom and Ireland—Does Variation Matter?

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background and Aims Wilms tumour (WT) has excellent event‐free and overall survival (OS). However, small differences exist between countries participating in the same international study. This led us to examine variation in adherence to protocol recommendations as a potential contributing factor.

Sirolimus for Extracranial Arteriovenous Malformations: A Scoping Review of the Evidence in Syndromic and Non‐Syndromic Cases

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Arteriovenous malformations (AVMs) are rare, high‐flow, vascular anomalies that can occur either sporadically or as part of a genetic syndrome. AVMs can progress with serious morbidity and even mortality if left unchecked. Sirolimus is an mTOR inhibitor that is effective in low‐flow vascular malformations; however, its role in AVMs is unclear.

Polymorphism of Sex Determination Amongst Wild Populations Suggests its Rapid Turnover Within the Nile Tilapia Species

Frontiers in Genetics, 2022
Sex-determining regions have been identified in the Nile tilapia on linkage groups (LG) 1, 20 and 23, depending on the domesticated strains used. Sex determining studies on wild populations of this species are scarce.
