The Surviving Monozygotic Twin [PDF]
Obstetrical & Gynecological Survey, 1986 It has been suggested that because of vascular interchange between the monozygous twins vascular disruptions from a deceased cotwin with disseminated intravascular coagulation causes embolisation in the surviving twin. This study reports six cases in which all the surviving monozygous twins had central nervous system infarcts and three had multiple ...

Monozygotic twins' colour-number association: a case study [PDF]
, 2006 A case study of a pair of monozygotic twins, both of whom show a strong and enduring colour-number association, is reported. The origin of the colours, in a jigsaw puzzle, is known. Neither reports conscious photisms typical of synaesthesia, but a Stroop

Urticaria in Monozygotic and Dizygotic Twins [PDF]
Journal of Allergy, 2012 Aim. To identify risk factors for urticaria, to determine the relative proportion of the susceptibility to urticaria that is due to genetic factors in an adult clinical twin sample, and to further determine whether the genetic susceptibility to urticaria overlaps with the genetic susceptibility to atopic diseases. Methods.

Nested Selves: Self‐Organization and Shared Markov Blankets in Prenatal Development in Humans
Topics in Cognitive Science, EarlyView., 2023 Abstract The immune system is a central component of organismic function in humans. This paper addresses self‐organization of biological systems in relation to—and nested within—other biological systems in pregnancy. Pregnancy constitutes a fundamental state for human embodiment and a key step in the evolution and conservation of our species. While not

Bivariate genetic modelling of the response to an oral glucose tolerance challenge: A gene x environment interaction approach [PDF]
, 2009 AIMS/HYPOTHESIS: Twin and family studies have shown the importance of genetic factors influencing fasting and 2 h glucose and insulin levels. However, the genetics of the physiological response to a glucose load has not been thoroughly investigated ...

Molar incisor hypomineralisation: current knowledge and practice
International Dental Journal, EarlyView., 2020 Background Molar incisor hypomineralisation (MIH) is a common developmental dental condition that presents in childhood. Areas of poorly formed enamel affect one or more first permanent molars and can cause opacities on the anterior teeth. MIH presents a variety of challenges for the dental team as well as functional and social impacts for affected ...
