Association between Ngb polymorphisms and ischemic stroke in the Southern Chinese Han population
Background Neuroglobin (Ngb), one of novel members of the globin superfamily, is expressed predominantly in brain neurons, and appears to modulate hypoxic-ischemic insults. The mechanisms underlying Ngb-mediated neuronal protection are still unclear. For

Background Insertion/deletion polymorphism (InDel), as the third genetic marker, has been given a lot of attention by forensic geneticists since it has the advantages of extensive distributions in the human genome, small amplicon, and low mutation rate ...

Spectrum of malignancies among the population of adults living with HIV infection in China: A nationwide follow-up study, 2008-2011. [PDF]
BackgroundAlthough increasingly studied in high-income countries, there is a paucity of data from the Chinese population on the patterns of cancer among people living with HIV (PLHIV).MethodsWe conducted a nationwide follow-up study using routinely ...

Evaluating the transferability of Hapmap SNPs to a Singapore Chinese population
Background The International Hapmap project serves as a valuable resource for human genome variation data, however its applicability to other populations has yet to be exhaustively investigated.
