TL;DR: In this paper, the authors performed a meta-analysis of birth weight in 153,781 individuals, identifying 60 loci where fetal genotype was associated with birth weight (P < 5.5×10−8).
Journal ArticleDOI
Income and health: what is the nature of the relationship?
Russell Ecob,George Davey Smith +1 more
TL;DR: The shape of the relationship found between income and health is compatible with worse health in countries with greater income inequality, without the need to postulate any direct effect of income inequality itself.
Journal ArticleDOI
High-resolution electron microscopy studies of the structure of Cu precipitates in α-Fe
TL;DR: In this article, a twinned 9R structure was found in precipitates slightly larger than 4nm in diameter, following transformation from b.c.c to c.c, indicating that further twinning must occur during growth in the 9R phase.
