Prevalence and heritability of parental‐reported speech and/or language difficulties in a Swedish population‐based twin sample

open access: yesJCPP Advances
Background Research on genetic and environmental influences on speech and/or language difficulties (SaLD) is sparse, with inconsistent heritability estimates. We aimed to estimate the prevalence of parental reported SaLD and the relative contributions of

NGC1052 - A study of the pc-scale twin jet [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
We present results of a VLBA multi-frequency study of the pc-scale twin jet in NGC1052. We observed this object at epoch 1998.99 with the VLBA at 5, 8.4, 22 and 43 GHz both in total and linearly polarized intensity.

Dark matter in ghost-free bigravity theory: From a galaxy scale to the universe

open access: yes, 2014
We study the origin of dark matter based on the ghost-free bigravity theory with twin matter fluids. The present cosmic acceleration can be explained by the existence of graviton mass, while dark matter is required in several cosmological situations [the

Catastrophic rearrangement of a compact star due to the quark core formation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
We study properties of compact stars with the deconfinement phase transition in their interiors. The equation of state of cold baryon-rich matter is constructed by combining a relativistic mean-field model for the hadronic phase and the MIT Bag model for

Does lower educational attainment increase the risk of osteoarthritis surgery? a Swedish twin study

open access: yesBMC Musculoskeletal Disorders, 2023
Background Previous studies have reported an inverse association between educational attainment and different osteoarthritis (OA) outcomes. However, none of the previous studies have accounted for potential confounding by early-life environment and ...

Twin methodology in epigenetic studies [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Experimental Biology, 2015
Since the final decades of the last century, twin studies have made a remarkable contribution to the genetics of human complex traits and diseases. With the recent rapid development in modern biotechnology of high-throughput genetic and genomic analyses, twin modelling is expanding from analysis of diseases to molecular phenotypes in functional ...

Cerebral Blood Flow in Community-Based Older Twins Is Moderately Heritable: An Arterial Spin Labeling Perfusion Imaging Study

open access: yesFrontiers in Aging Neuroscience, 2019
Adequate cerebral blood flow (CBF) is necessary to maintain brain metabolism and function. Arterial spin labeling (ASL) is an emerging MRI technique offering a non-invasive and reliable quantification of CBF.

Twin Studies in Medical Genetics [PDF]

open access: yesActa geneticae medicae et gemellologiae, 1974
It is the aim of twin studies to obtain results which are not only valid for twins, but apply to the whole population. Therefore the following questions have to be answered first: do twins differ from non-twins in the trait under study? Do different nongenetic factors act upon MZ and DZ twins which alter the probability of manifestation of a trait ...
