Révision de l’espèce Homo erectus (Dubois, 1893) by Valéry Zeitoun

“…When, for instance, the upper part of an anatomical area is larger than its lower part, to evaluate this criterion, it is better to use an index calculated from homologous points which relate to these both parts. This process allows a better definition of the states of the features. …”

Occurrence of Fatal and Nonfatal Adverse Outcomes after Heart Transplantation in Patients with Pretransplant Noncytotoxic HLA Antibodies by Luciano Potena, Andrea Bontadini, Sandra Iannelli, Fiorenza Fruet, Ornella Leone, Francesco Barberini, Laura Borgese, Valentina Manfredini, Marco Masetti, Gaia Magnani, Francesco Fallani, Francesco Grigioni, Angelo Branzi

“…Out of the 173 consecutive patients assayed (52±13y; 16% females; 47% ischemic etiology), 32 (18%) showed pretransplant HLA ab, and 12 (7%) tested positive against both class I and class II HLA. Recipients with any HLA ab had poorer survival than those without (65±9 versus 82±3%; P=0.02), accounting for a doubled independent mortality risk (P=0.04). …”

Combining genotyping approaches improves resolution for association mapping: a case study in tropical maize under water stress conditions by Fernanda Carla Ferreira de Pontes, Ingrid Pinheiro Machado, Maria Valnice de Souza Silveira, Antônio Lucas Aguiar Lobo, Felipe Sabadin, Roberto Fritsche-Neto, Júlio César DoVale

“…In terms of accuracy, the combination of genotyping scenarios compared to those isolated is feasible and recommended, as it increased all traits under both water conditions. In this sense, it is worth highlighting the combination of GBS-B73 and GBS-Mock scenarios, not only due to the increase in the resolution of GWAS results but also the reduction of costs associated with genotyping and the possibility of conducting genomic breeding methods.…”
