Autocorrelation of the susceptible-infected-susceptible process on networks [PDF]
In this paper, we focus on the autocorrelation of the susceptible-infected-susceptible (SIS) process on networks. The N-intertwined mean-field approximation (NIMFA) is applied to calculate the autocorrelation properties of the exact SIS process. We derive the autocorrelation of the infection state of each node and the fraction of infected nodes both in

This essay argues that political theology does not interrogate the contexts of emergence for the joining of the political to the theological; it takes these concepts to have meaning without accounting for how these categories are created by racialized, gendered, sexed exclusion.

Why only 20% of smokers develop clinically relevant chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) was a puzzle for many years. Now, epidemiologic studies point clearly toward a large heritable component. The combination of genome-wide association studies and candidate gene analysis is helping to identify those genetic variants responsible for an ...

Systematic Approximations to Susceptible-Infectious-Susceptible Dynamics on Networks [PDF]
Network-based infectious disease models have been highly effective in elucidating the role of contact structure in the spread of infection. As such, pair- and neighbourhood-based approximation models have played a key role in linking findings from network simulations to standard (random-mixing) results.

Introduction to Quantitative Susceptibility Mapping and Susceptibility Weighted Imaging [PDF]
Quantitative Susceptibility Mapping (QSM) and Susceptibility Weighted Imaging (SWI) are MRI techniques that measure and display differences in the magnetization that is induced in tissues, i.e. their magnetic susceptibility, when placed in the strong external magnetic field of an MRI system. SWI produces images in which the contrast is heavily weighted

Minigene Splicing Assays Identify 12 Spliceogenic Variants of BRCA2 Exons 14 and 15
A relevant fraction of BRCA2 variants is associated with splicing alterations and with an increased risk of hereditary breast and ovarian cancer (HBOC). In this work, we have carried out a thorough study of variants from BRCA2 exons 14 and 15 reported at

Identification of Eight Spliceogenic Variants in BRCA2 Exon 16 by Minigene Assays
Genetic testing of BRCA1 and BRCA2 identifies a large number of variants of uncertain clinical significance whose functional and clinical interpretations pose a challenge for genetic counseling.
