TL;DR: The exhaustive genotyping of a candidate gene, tumor necrosis factor receptor 1 (TNFR1), in the genetic of resistance to immunodeficiency virus (GRIV) AIDS cohort is presented, the first genetic association study dealing with the TNFR1 gene in AIDS.

TL;DR: In this paper, a comparison of motor function between sarcopenia stages with respect to sex in community-dwelling older adults was carried out to evaluate lower limb muscle strength and balance ability.

TL;DR: Low muscle mass and obesity negatively influence balance and walking abilities, however, the influence of low musclemass and obesity on muscle strength were different between the sexes.

TL;DR: A new diagram, Double Triangle Diagram, which was an extension of de Finetti diagram in population genetics which characterized all of the tests for 2 × 3 tables was introduced, and it was confirmed that P‐values from the method took uniform distribution from 0 to 1 in three example marginal count sets and concluded that the method was appropriate to give P‐value of MAX test.

TL;DR: There is ambiguity in the interpretation of peripheral blood total eosinophil count, and several proposed cut-off values or thresholds of 300 cells per μL have been used to identify the patients who are most likely to benefit from inhaled corticosteroid as mentioned in this paper.
