We present GSR, a probabilistic model integrating gene duplication, sequence evolution, and a relaxed molecular clock for substitution rates, that enables genomewide analysis of gene families. The gene duplication and loss process is a major cause for incongruence between gene and species tree, and deterministic methods have been developed to explain such differences through tree reconciliation...

By F. RODRIGUEZ-ERDMANN T HE SANARELLI-SHWARTZMAN phenomenon-generalized Shwartzman reaction (GSR )-is observed in rabbits after two properly spaced intravenous injections of endotoxin derived from gram-negative bacteria and is characterized by profound collapse and hemorrhagic diathesis. Marked changes in the blood clotting mechanism in animals undergoing GSR have been described’6’30’35 and re...

While the visualization of gunshot injuries so far focused on solid metal density in routine forensic post mortem computed tomography (PMCT) as well micro-computed tomography, residue (GSR) dispersed particles typically succumbs to partial volume effect. A case series seven contact shots head was evaluated determine a range for GSR with at least three times higher likelihood than encountering b...

Bacterial existence is fraught with stresses, which bacteria counter at two levels, the specific and general stress responses (GSRs). The former is aimed at escaping the specific stress being experienced by the synthesis, for example, under starvation, of enzymes to better capture a scarce nutrient, and tends to be specific to a given stress. But in GSR, a common set of proteins is induced in o...

INTRODUCTION In developing countries, chronic otitis media (COM) and cholesteatoma are relatively prevalent. Within the field of otology, COM surgery remains one of the most common surgical treatments. Most recent studies evaluating the potential prognostic factors in COM surgery have addressed graft success rate and types of middle ear and mastoid pathology. There has been much controversy abo...
