Genomics and pharmacogenomics of sepsis: so close and yet so far
Sapru et al. show in this issue of Critical Care that variants of thrombomodulin and the endothelial protein C receptor, but not protein C, are associated with mortality and organ dysfunction (ventilation-free and organ failure-free days) in ARDS. Hundreds of gene variants have been found prognostic in sepsis. However, none of these prognostic genomic biomarkers are used clinically. Predictive ...
متن کاملObesity genes: so close and yet so far...
Little is known about genetic variants that predispose individuals toward leanness or fatness. This minireview highlights recent advances in the study of human populations, animal models and synergistic efforts as described by De Luca and colleagues in BMC Genetics, which are beginning to harvest low-hanging fruit in the search for obesity genes.
متن کاملCross-Domain Collaborative Anomaly Detection: So Far Yet So Close
Web applications have emerged as the primary means of access to vital and sensitive services such as online payment systems and databases storing personally identifiable information. Unfortunately, the need for ubiquitous and often anonymous access exposes web servers to adversaries. Indeed, network-borne zero-day attacks pose a critical and widespread threat to web servers that cannot be mitig...
متن کاملComment Ischemia at a Distance - So Close Yet So Far
ST segment elevation in characteristic electrocardiographic leads during an acute myocardial infarction generally allows correct identification of the coronary artery occluded (1). Electrocardiographic changes, usually ST segment depression, are often noted in other leads, presumably representing myocardium sub served by other coronary arteries. What do such changes mean? Are they a benign elec...

Developments in computer and communication technologies over the past ten years aptly support the use of the term global village to describe the present worldwide provision and distribution of information. These technologies are increasingly being employed in Africa, but their presence is not widespread and evenly distributed. Librarians in Africa are establishing the basic tools and organizati...
