TL;DR: Telomere length is longer in females than males, although this difference was not universally found in studies that did not use Southern blot methods, and further research on explanations for the methodological differences is required.

TL;DR: The Piper rhythm in muscle may be driven by a comparable oscillatory activity in the contralateral motor cortex, which can be picked up in several types of movement and seems distinct from the 20- to 30-Hz rhythmicity recorded during weak sustained contractions.

TL;DR: Findings suggest new genetic pathways underlying blood pressure variation, some of which may differentially influence SBP and DBP, as well as two new MAP loci associated with both of these traits.
Abstract: Numerous genetic loci have been associated with systolic blood pressure (SBP) and diastolic blood pressure (DBP) in Europeans(1-3). We now report genome-wide association studies of pulse pressure (PP) and mean arterial pressure (MAP). In discovery (N = 74,064) and follow-up studies (N = 48,607), we identified at genome-wide significance (P = 2.7 x 10(-8) to P = 2.3 x 10(-13)) four new PP loci (at 4q12 near CHIC2, 7q22.3 near PIK3CG, 8q24.12 in NOV and 11q24.3 near ADAMTS8), two new MAP loci (3p21.31 in MAP4 and 10q25.3 near ADRB1) and one locus associated with both of these traits (2q24.3 near FIGN) that has also recently been associated with SBP in east Asians. For three of the new PP loci, the estimated effect for SBP was opposite of that for DBP, in contrast to the majority of common SBP- and DBP-associated variants, which show concordant effects on both traits. These findings suggest new genetic pathways underlying blood pressure variation, some of which may differentially influence SBP and DBP.

TL;DR: The interconnections and relations of these neurones to dorsal horn projection neurones are considered in the light of the reported analgesic properties of a number of these substances when applied directly to the spinal cord.

TL;DR: The results suggest that children of all ages with clinical features of HIV infection should receive co-trimoxazole prophylaxis in resource-poor settings, irrespective of local resistance to this drug.
