Journal Article

Genetic determination of telomere size in humans: a twin study of three age groups.

TL;DR: The individual differences in mean TRF length in blood, therefore, seem to a large extent to be genetically determined.
Journal ArticleDOI

Accuracy of direct segmental multi-frequency bioimpedance analysis in the assessment of total body and segmental body composition in middle-aged adult population

TL;DR: DSM-BIA is a valid tool for the assessments of total body and segmental body composition in the general middle-aged population, particularly for the quantification of body lean mass.

A genome-wide association study of anorexia nervosa

Vesna Boraska, +175 more
TL;DR: The accrual of large genotyped AN case-control samples should be an immediate priority for the field, suggesting that true findings exist but the sample, the largest yet reported, was underpowered for their detection.
Journal ArticleDOI

Zygosity diagnosis in young twins by parental report

TL;DR: Analyses of data provided by both parents and collected over multiple ages did not result in better prediction of zygosity, and the accuracy of assignment remained constant across age and parents.
Journal Article

High-yield noninvasive human genomic dna isolation method for genetic studies in geographically dispersed families and populations

TL;DR: This work has developed a new noninvasive DNA sampling and isolation method involving oral samples taken with cotton swabs that is fast, less expensive, and suitable especially for DNA collection from geographically scattered subjects.
