Thrombin-Activatable Fibrinolysis Inhibitor in Chronic Thromboembolic Pulmonary Hypertension

TL;DR: Results indicate that plasma levels of TAFI are elevated in patients with CTEPH and are correlated with resistance to clot lysis in those patients, and the extent of clot remaining after 4 hours was improved with an activated TAFi inhibitor.

Association of KIBRA rs17070145 polymorphism and episodic memory in individuals with severe TBI

TL;DR: Assessment of associations between variation in the KIBRA gene and cognitive function in 129 adults with severe TBI suggested that rs17070145 T-allele effects are specific to episodic memory and support the hypothesis that associations between rs17 070145 variation and memory are disparate between healthy and impaired populations.

Structure-based graph distance measures of high degree of precision

TL;DR: This work defines substructure abundance vector (SAV) to capture more substructure information of a graph and proposes unified graphdistance measures which are generalization of the existing structure-based graph distance measures.
Journal ArticleDOI

Lack of association between the promoter polymorphism of the MTNR1A gene and adolescent idiopathic scoliosis.

TL;DR: Promoter polymorphism of the MTNR1A gene was not associated with the occurrence or curve severity of AIS, suggesting that this gene may not be involved in the etiopathogenesis of A IS.

Imputing missing genotypes with weighted k nearest neighbors

TL;DR: In this paper, a method based on weighted k nearest neighbors is proposed for imputing missing genotypes for single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in association studies, which can also be applied to data from whole-genome studies.

A haplotype map of the human genome

John W. Belmont, +232 more
TL;DR: A public database of common variation in the human genome: more than one million single nucleotide polymorphisms for which accurate and complete genotypes have been obtained in 269 DNA samples from four populations, including ten 500-kilobase regions in which essentially all information about common DNA variation has been extracted.
Journal ArticleDOI

A second generation human haplotype map of over 3.1 million SNPs

Kelly A. Frazer, +237 more
- 18 Oct 2007 - 
TL;DR: The Phase II HapMap is described, which characterizes over 3.1 million human single nucleotide polymorphisms genotyped in 270 individuals from four geographically diverse populations and includes 25–35% of common SNP variation in the populations surveyed, and increased differentiation at non-synonymous, compared to synonymous, SNPs is demonstrated.

Accurate whole human genome sequencing using reversible terminator chemistry

David R. Bentley, +201 more
- 06 Nov 2008 - 
TL;DR: An approach that generates several billion bases of accurate nucleotide sequence per experiment at low cost is reported, effective for accurate, rapid and economical whole-genome re-sequencing and many other biomedical applications.

ABySS: A parallel assembler for short read sequence data

TL;DR: ABySS (Assembly By Short Sequences), a parallelized sequence assembler, was developed and assembled 3.5 billion paired-end reads from the genome of an African male publicly released by Illumina, Inc, representing 68% of the reference human genome.

Genome sequence, comparative analysis and haplotype structure of the domestic dog

Kerstin Lindblad-Toh, +241 more
- 08 Dec 2005 - 
TL;DR: A high-quality draft genome sequence of the domestic dog is reported, together with a dense map of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) across breeds, to shed light on the structure and evolution of genomes and genes.
