AIDS and food insecurity: ‘New variant famine’ in Malawi? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
In the midst of the 2002/3 food crisis in Southern Africa social scientists De Waal and Whiteside (well known for their respective work on the social construction of famines and the socio-economic impacts of AIDS in sub-Saharan Africa), hypothesised in ...

Canine reference genome accuracy impacts variant calling: Lessons learned from investigating embryonic lethal variants [PDF]

open access: yes, 2022
Deficient homozygosity of a variant maintained in a population suggests that the variant may be embryonic lethal. We examined whole genome sequence data from 675 canids to investigate for variants with missing homozygosity and high predicted impact ...

Space-variant picture coding [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
PhDSpace-variant picture coding techniques exploit the strong spatial non-uniformity of the human visual system in order to increase coding efficiency in terms of perceived quality per bit.

Invariant in variants

open access: yesUltrasonics, 2022
The coronavirus Covid-19 mutates quickly in the pandemic, leaves people struggling to verify and improve the effectiveness of the vaccine based on biochemistry. Is there any physical invariant in the variants of such kind of pathogen that could be taken advantage to ease the tensions?

Source of variant Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease outside United Kingdom. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
We studied the occurrence of variant Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (vCJD) outside the United Kingdom in relation to the incidence of indigenous bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE) and to the level of live bovines and bovine products imported from the UK ...

Variations on variants [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the 2015 ACM SIGPLAN Symposium on Haskell, 2015
Extensible variants improve the modularity and expressiveness of programming languages: they allow program functionality to be decomposed into independent blocks, and allow seamless extension of existing code with both new cases of existing data types and new operations over those data types.

Expression and modulation of CD44 variant isoforms in humans [PDF]

open access: yes, 1994
CD44 is a ubiquitous surface molecule that exists as a number of isoforms, generated by alternative splicing of 10 "variant" exons. Little is known about the expression and function of the variant isoforms, except that certain isoforms may play a role in

GEVACT: Genomic Variant Classifier Tool

open access: yes, 2015
High throughput screening (HTS) techniques, like mendeliome, whole exomeand genome screening, are becoming a routine in a clinical diagnosticsetting. However, classifying the identified genomic variants as benign or(likely) pathogenic, is still a tedious

A single full-length VAR2CSA ectodomain variant purifies broadly neutralizing antibodies against placental malaria isolates

open access: yeseLife, 2022
Placental malaria (PM) is a deadly syndrome most frequent and severe in first pregnancies. PM results from accumulation of Plasmodium falciparum-infected erythrocytes (IE) that express the surface antigen VAR2CSA and bind to chondroitin sulfate A (CSA ...
