Amyloidosis-where are we now and where are we heading?
CONTEXT Amyloidoses are disorders of diverse etiology in which deposits of abnormally folded proteins share distinctive staining properties and fibrillar ultrastructural appearance. Amyloidosis ultimately leads to destruction of tissues and progressive disease. With recent advances in the treatment of systemic amyloidoses the importance of an early diagnosis of amyloid, and a correct diagnosis ...
متن کاملAssessing insect responses to climate change: What are we testing for? Where should we be heading?
To understand how researchers are tackling globally important issues, it is crucial to identify whether current research is comprehensive enough to make substantive predictions about general responses. We examined how research on climate change affecting insects is being assessed, what factors are being tested and the localities of studies, from 1703 papers published between 1985 and August 201...
متن کاملAnimal Sentience: Where are We and Where are We Heading?

Demonstrating objectively what animals are capable of is key to achieving a positive change in attitudes and actions towards animals, and a real, sustainable difference for animal welfare. This paper briefly summarises understanding and acceptance of animal sentience through the ages. Although not an exhaustive histor...
متن کاملhorizons of psychiatric genetics and epigenetics: where are we and where are we heading?
today multinational studies using genome-wide association scan (gwas) for >1000,000 polymorphisms on >100,000 cases with major psychiatric diseases versus controls, combined with next-generation sequencing have found ~100 genetic polymorphisms associated with schizophrenia (scz), bipolar disorder (bd), autism, attention deficit and hyperactivity disorder (adhd), etc. however, the effect size of...
متن کاملClimate change and vector-borne diseases: a regional analysis.
Current evidence suggests that inter-annual and inter-decadal climate variability have a direct influence on the epidemiology of vector-borne diseases. This evidence has been assessed at the continental level in order to determine the possible consequences of the expected future climate change. By 2100 it is estimated that average global temperatures will have risen by 1.0-3.5 degrees C, increa...
