Jayamohan, Harikrishnan | Applications of microfluidics for molecular diagnostics | Diagnostic assays implemented in microfluidic devices have developed rapidly over the past decade and are expected to become commonplace in the next few years. Hundreds of microfluidics-based approaches towards clinical diagnostics and pathogen detection have been reported with a general theme of ra... | Microfluidics; Micro-total-analysis-systems; Lab-on-a-chip; Point-of-care devices; Sample preparation; MEMS; Rapid prototyping; Biomarker detection; Personalized medicine; Global health care | 2012-11-04 |

Capecchi, Mario R. | Expression of a microinjected porcine class I major histocompatibility complex gene in transgenic mice. | A porcine class I major histocompatibility complex (SLA) gene has been introduced into the genome of a C57BL/10 mouse. This transgenic mouse expressed SLA antigen on its cell surfaces and transmitted the gene to offspring, in which the gene is also expressed. Skin grafts of such transgenic mice were... | Genetic Engineering; Graft Rejection; Mice, Inbred C57BL | 1985-05-03 |

Couldwell, William T.; Gillespie, David L.; Jensen, Randy L. | Comparison of the cell lines used in meningoma research | Background: Immortal cell lines and cell lines derived from operative specimens transplanted into animal models are used in meningioma research. We address two criticisms of the mouse xenograft flank tumor model: Why are tumor induction rates derived from operative specimens low and inconsistent?

Gibbs, Katie Bernice; Frazer, John K. | otg, a heritable T-cell malignancy in zebrafish that exhibits apoptosis resistance | Otg (oscar the grouch), a line of zebrafish identified with a T cell malignancy pseudoposition, has a recessive inheritance pattern with approximately 50% penetrance in presumed homozygotes (m/m). After breeding otg with a wild-type lck::eGFP fish to create obligate heterozygotes (+/m), and then in... | otg; Oscar the grouch zebrafish; Apoptosis resistance; T cell malignancy; Pseudoposition; Trapeze Interactive poster | 2010-03-15 |

Bernstein, Paul S.; Leppert, Mark F. | Genotype-phenotype analysis of ABCR variants in macular degeneration probands and siblings | PURPOSE: Single-copy variants of the autosomal recessive Stargardt disease (STGD1) gene ABCR (ABCA4) have been shown to confer enhanced susceptibility to age-related macular degeneration (AMD). To investigate the role of ABCR alleles in AMD further, genotype-phenotype analysis was performed on sibli... | DNA Mutational Analysis; Nuclear Family; Phenotype | 2002 |

Kestle, John R. W. | Potentially useful outcome measures for clinical research in pediatric neurosurgery | The choice of outcome (or outcomes) and their measurement are critical for a sound clinical trial. Surgeons have traditionally measured simple outcomes such as death, duration of survival, or tumor recurrence but have recently developed more sophisticated measures of the effect of an intervention.

Anderson, Richard Bryan | IMHBCO (In my humble but correct opinion): the journal issue and the record album: two fundamentally irrational information products | Over the past few years I've become more and more convinced that the scholarly information world has a lot to learn from the music industry. Not so much from what the latter is doing either right or wrong, but from what has happened to it over the past 100 years, how it has happened, and why. From ... | 2009 | |

Couldwell, William T.; Schmidt, Richard H.; Salzman, Karen L.; Chin, Steven S. | Glioblastoma multiforme of the pineal region | Glioblastoma multiforme (GBMs) tumors are exceedingly rare tumors in the pineal region. We present three cases in which patients presented with a pineal/posterior third ventricular region mass and review all the previously reported cases in the literature. Pineal region GBM seems to be a very aggre... | Glioblastoma multiforme; Hydrocephalus; Leptomeningeal dissemination; Malignant glioma; Perinaud's syndrome; Pineal region; Spinal metastases | 2006 |

O'Rourke, Dennis H. | Ascertainment bias for non-twin relatives in twin proband studies | When families are ascertained through affected twins, as for example when twin probands are selected from a registry and their non-twin relatives studied, a correction for ascertainment bias is needed. It is shown that probandwise counting (where relatives of doubly ascertained twin pairs are counte... | Genetic; Transmission; Models | 1982 |

Gesteland, Raymond F.; Krapcho, Karen J.; Talbot, Phil; Thulin, Craig | Crystallization of the MS2 translational repressor alone and complexed to bromouridine | The coat protein from the MS2 bacteriophage plays a dual role by encapsidating viral RNA and also by binding RNA as a translational repressor. In order to study the isolated dimer in a conformation not influenced by capsid interactions, a mutant molecule was crystallized that is defective in capsid ... | Crystallization; RNA Bacteriophage; RNA Hairpin; Translational Repressor | 1995 |

Battin, Margaret P. | Legal physician-assisted dying in Oregon and the Netherlands: evidence concerning the impact on patients in "vulnerable" groups | If physician-assisted suicide (PAS) and/or voluntary active euthanasia were legalised, would this disproportionately affect people in ‘‘vulnerable'' groups? Although principles of patient autonomy and the right to avoid suffering and pain may offer support for these practices, concerns about the... | Vulnerable groups; Oregon; Netherlands | 2007-10-01 |

Brown, Barbara B. | Physical activity mediates the relationship between perceived crime safety and obesity | Objective. The current cross-sectional study tests whether low perceived crime safety is associated with body mass index (BMI) and obesity risk and whether less moderate-to-vigorous physical activity (MVPA) accounts for part of this relationship.
