Epidemiology and natural history of multiple sclerosis: new insights.
PURPOSE OF REVIEW The cause of multiple sclerosis remains elusive. We review recent epidemiological studies of genetic and environmental factors that influence susceptibility to the disease and its clinical course. RECENT FINDINGS Genetic advances strengthen the association of multiple sclerosis with the human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-DRB1 allele and interferon-gamma polymorphisms and suggest ...
متن کاملHelminths of the two mountain frogs, banded frog, Rana camerani Boulenger, 1886 and Uludağ frog Rana macrocnemis Boulenger, 1885 (Anura: Ranidae), collected from the Antalya province.
In this study, two mountain frogs (Rana camerani and Rana macrocnemis) were collected in the Antalya Province in south-western Turkey during 2001 and 2002 and were examined for helminths. Out of 15 Rana camerani, 10 (66.7%) were infected with 1 or more helminths and out of 20 Rana macrocnemis, 17 (85%) were infected with 1 or more helminths. The helminth fauna of Rana camerani included 4 specie...
متن کاملمطالعۀ ریخت‌شناسی قورباغۀ قفقازی (Rana macrocnemis, Boulenger, 1885) در ایران
چکیده گونۀ Rana macrocnemis در قفقاز و آسیای صغیر و در شمال‌غرب و غرب ایران پراکنش گسترده‌ای دارد. جمعیت‌های ایرانی قورباغه‌های قهوه‌ای با‌وجود پراکنش گسترده در ایران کمتر مورد‌توجه پژوهشگران قرار گرفته‌اند. در پژوهش حاضر با نمونه‌برداری گسترده از کل محدودۀ پراکنش قورباغۀ کوهستانی در ایران به ارزیابی ساختار تغییرات جغرافیایی صفت‌ها در جمعیت‌ها پرداخته شد. به‌منظ...
متن کاملThe “Alluvial Mesovoid Shallow Substratum”, a New Subterranean Habitat
In this paper we describe a new type of subterranean habitat associated with dry watercourses in the Eastern Iberian Peninsula, the "Alluvial Mesovoid Shallow Substratum" (alluvial MSS). Historical observations and data from field sampling specially designed to study MSS fauna in the streambeds of temporary watercourses support the description of this new habitat. To conduct the sampling, 16 su...
متن کاملEvolution underground: shedding light on the diversification of subterranean insects
A recent study in BMC Evolutionary Biology has reconstructed the molecular phylogeny of a large Mediterranean cave-dwelling beetle clade, revealing an ancient origin and strong geographic structuring. It seems likely that diversification of this clade in the Oligocene was seeded by an ancestor already adapted to subterranean life.
