The Relationship Between Physical Activity and Left Ventricular Remodeling in Childhood Cancer Survivors Treated With Anthracyclines: A Cross‐Sectional Study

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Anthracycline‐related cardiac remodeling precedes heart failure in childhood cancer survivors. The objectives of this study were to determine the relationships between patient‐specific factors, moderate‐to‐vigorous physical activity (MVPA), and cardiac remodeling.

Runs of homozygosity in Italian Holstein bulls: a permutation approach and time-based mapping of the genomic regions potentially under selection

BMC Genomics
Background Runs of homozygosity (ROH) occurrence in animal genomes may result from a high level of relatedness within the population or from positive selection.

A complex selection signature at the human AVPR1B gene [PDF]

BMC Evolutionary Biology, 2009
AbstractBackgroundThe vasopressin receptor type 1b (AVPR1B) is mainly expressed by pituitary corticotropes and it mediates the stimulatory effects of AVP on ACTH release; commonAVPR1Bhaplotypes have been involved in mood and anxiety disorders in humans, while rodents lacking a functional receptor gene display behavioral defects and altered stress ...
