Byers and Dunn (Reports, 9 November 2012, p. 802) claimed that predation on offspring reduced the potential for sexual selection in pronghorn. We argue that the potential for sexual selection is not affected by random offspring mortality when relative reproductive success is considered and increases when measured with the opportunity for selection, a metric that describes the potential for sele...

The association ofHelicobacter pyloriwith peptic ulcer disease and gastric cancer was first proposed by Warren and Marshall in 1983 (Warren and Marshall, 1983). In February 1994, the National Institutes of Health Consensus Development Conference concluded thatH. pylori infection is themajor cause of peptic ulcer disease, and all patients with confirmed peptic ulcer disease associatedwithH. pylo...

BACKGROUND Chronic instability of the acromiocavicular joint is relatively common and normally occurs following a fall onto the point of the shoulder. Reconstruction of the joint [Weaver-Dunn procedure] using the coracoacromial ligament is often required in service personnel, and a number of methods to augment this repair have been used. Many of these operative methods require a second operatio...

One of the aims of cognitive (neuro)psychology is to characterize the nature of, and the relationships between, mental processes underlying human behavior (c.f. Dunn & Kirsner, this issue). In this context, the double dissociation (DD) paradigm has played an important albeit debated role. In our efforts to come up with a clear and positive contribution to this discussion, which sometimes appear...

formulations of genetics leave us less and less tangible knowledge of how the genes work. We can only hope that genetics has asked the right questions, which are now ready for the frontal attacks of biochemistry. 1. Allison, A. C., Science 122, 640. (1955). 2. Beadle, G.
