Evolution of alternative sex-determining mechanisms in teleost fishes [PDF]
, 2006 We compiled information from the literature on the taxonomic distributions in extant teleost fishes of alternative sex-determination systems: male-heterogametic (XY) gonochorism, female-heterogametic (ZW) gonochorism, hermaphroditism, unisexuality, and ...

Clinical Course and Impact of Breaks in Therapy for Children With Relapsed/Refractory Solid Tumors
Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Introduction Pediatric relapsed or refractory (R/R) solid tumors carry a dismal prognosis, and postrelapse patient experiences are not well described. We present postrelapse outcomes, including number of R/R events and subsequent therapy regimens.

Tree of Sex: A database of sexual systems [PDF]
, 2014 The vast majority of eukaryotic organisms reproduce sexually, yet the nature of the sexual system and the mechanism of sex determination often vary remarkably, even among closely related species. Some species of animals and plants change sex across their

Sex Determination: Sex on the Brain? [PDF]
Current Biology, 2003 Five newly identified sex-biased transcripts in Drosophila are full of surprises: although they are found in fly heads, and manipulating two of them affects mating behaviors, their genes are expressed sex-specifically in non-neural tissues. The way these genes are regulated suggests new complexities in the sex determination pathway.

Implementing Health‐Related Quality of Life Assessment in Pediatric Oncology: A Feasibility Study
Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background There is growing interest in embedding health‐related quality of life (HRQoL) assessment and patient‐reported outcome measures (PROMs) within clinical cancer care. This study evaluated the feasibility, acceptability, and usability of implementing an electronic PROM (ePROM) platform to measure HRQoL in children with cancer ...

Plant sex determination and sex chromosomes [PDF]
Heredity, 2002 Sex determination systems in plants have evolved many times from hermaphroditic ancestors (including monoecious plants with separate male and female flowers on the same individual), and sex chromosome systems have arisen several times in flowering plant evolution.
