Prediction of Sustained Virological Response to Telaprevir-Based Triple Therapy Using Viral Response within 2 Weeks
The aim of the present study was to predict sustained virological response (SVR) to telaprevir with pegylated interferon (PEG-IFN) and ribavirin using viral response within 2 weeks after therapy initiation. Thirty-six patients with genotype 1 hepatitis C virus (HCV) and high viral load were treated by telaprevir-based triple therapy. SVR was achieved in 72% (26/36) of patients. Significant diff...
متن کاملInterlopers within Asteroid Families
A statistical method for the evaluation of the probable amount of interlopers included in the most recently identi ed asteroid families is developed. The method is based on the analysis of the local properties of the asteroidal distribution in the zones of the proper element space in which families are located. An application to the most important families listed by Zappal a et al. [1995, Icaru...
متن کاملGenetic lotteries within families.
Drawing on findings from the biomedical literature, this paper introduces the idea that specific exogenously inherited differences in the genetic code between full biological siblings can be used to test within-family estimators and potentially improve our understanding of economic relationships. These points are illustrated with an application to identify the causal impact of several poor heal...
متن کاملPrediction of selection response for threshold dichotomous traits.
This paper presents a formula to predict expected response to one generation of truncation selection for a dichotomous trait under polygenic additive inheritance. The derivation relies on the threshold liability concept and on the normality assumption of the joint distribution of additive genetic values and their predictors used as selection criteria. This formula accounts for asymmetry of resp...
متن کاملComparision of Direct and Indirect Response to Selection for Breast Weight in Japanese Quail
This study was carried out to investigate the direct and indirect responses to selection for four-week body weight (4 week body (wk BW)) and four-week breast weight (4 week breast weight (wk BRW)) and to determine the genetic contribution of reminder founders to the last generation. A total number of 351 birds were equally allocated to three lines, including two selected lines (S1 and S2 for BW...
