Abstract:

Context Projecting the population trajectory of endangered species using models requires conservation practitioners to evaluate how variations in life history parameters may change a population’s viability. This is particularly important for species that occur as fragmented populations and whose densities are naturally low. Simulations may be used to identify conservation actions that have a higher likelihood of reducing a species’ extinction risk. Aims The aim was to apply population viability models to the northern quoll (Dasyurus hallucatus) under alternative scenarios. Methods The current

Most theoretical introgression studies aimed at such quantification disregard one or more of the most important factors concerning introgression: realistic genetical mechanisms, repeated invasions and stochasticity.

Abstract A common strategy for recovering endangered species is ensuring that populations exceed the minimum viable population size (MVP), a demographic benchmark that theoretically ensures low long-term extinction risk.

Such models also help identify key uncertainties that have a large influence on extinction risk. We used stochastic count-based simulation models to

Abstract:

Middle-aged adults can start to be affected by some arterial diseases (ADs), such as abdominal aortic or popliteal artery aneurysms, lower extremity arterial disease, internal carotid, or renal artery or subclavian artery stenosis. These vasculopathies are often asymptomatic or paucisymptomatic before manifesting themselves with dramatic complications. Therefore, early detection of ADs is fundamental to reduce the risk of major adverse cardiovascular and limb events. Furthermore, ADs carry a high correlation with silent coronary artery disease (CAD). This study focuses on the most common ADs,

Abstract:

Objective: The general public’s knowledge of the risk factors for head and neck cancer is insufficient. The level of awareness of such risk factors amongst the otolaryngology clinic patient population has not yet been elucidated in the literature. Method: This individual cohort study took place at a tertiary academic center. A survey was designed and administered to all patients who presented to otolaryngology clinic from 2017 to 2018 to assess knowledge of head and neck cancer risk factors. The main outcome measures were percentage of correct responses for each cancer risk factor and comparis

AbstractBackground:Congenital Heart Defects (CHD) are the most common structural defects of newborns. Southern Israel’s population is comprised of Jews (75%) and Arab-Bedouins (25%). The latter has a high rate of consanguinity and low abortion rate compared with the Jewish population, which led us to suspect a higher CHD prevalence in this population. Our aim was to compare maternal risk factors that are associated with CHD in these populations.Methods:All births during 1991–2011 in Soroka University Medical Center (n = 247, 289) with 6078 newborns having CHD were included.

Abstract:

We used redd count data from 88 bull trout (Salvelinus confluentus) populations in the upper Columbia River basin to quantify local and regional patterns in population dynamics, including adult abundance, long-term trend, and population synchrony. We further used this information to assess conservation risk of metapopulations using eight population dynamic metrics associated with persistence. Local population abundances were generally low (<20 redds annually) and the majority of trends were either stable (85%) or declining (13%). Evidence of synchrony among populations was apparent but not

Introduction Clonal hematopoiesis (CH) is defined as an expansion of blood stem cell clones that bear advantageous somatic mutations. JAK2V617F is not only the most common mutation association with MPN, it is the fifth most common lesion implicated in CH. While the JAK2V617F positive MPN are rare diseases, CH occurs at relatively common rates in the aging population. CH carriers, and in particular JAK2V617F CH carriers, similar to MPN patients, are at increased risk of developing blood cancers, and arterial and venous thromboses.

Abstract:

Anal sex is known to be an important risk factor for anal cancer. Yet compared with vaginal intercourse, little is known about anal sex practices in either heterosexual or male homosexual populations. Of the data that are available, it appears a significant and increasing minority of heterosexuals have ever practised anal intercourse. Among homosexual men, most, but not all, report anal sex, with large proportions of men engaging in both insertive and receptive anal intercourse. The most significant finding of the review was the dearth of population-based data, particularly relating to homosex

There is little doubt that dementia is a very common cause of disability and dependency in our society. Since dementia of whatever type is usually more common with increasing age, then as population demographics change, so will the prevalence of dementia. Dementia is a generic term and the objective for clinicians, once dementia is suspected, is to attempt to define the cause. Alzheimer's disease is the most common cause of dementia, and in most centres vascular dementia would feature as the next most common aetiology. In some centres, Lewy body dementia is the second most common cause. Mixed

Abstract:

Population viability analysis (PVA) has become one of the standard tools of conservation biology. Unfortunately, few examples have entered the refereed literature. Most remain in the "grey" world of internal government reports, where the results of "what-if" scenarios become transformed into the firm basis for policy settings. The problem is that rough guesses of population parameters enter the black box of a modeling package, to emerge as attractive and apparently precise graphs of extinction probability as a function of population size.

The APOE ε4 allele has been recognized as the strongest genetic risk factor for late-onset Alzheimer’s disease (LOAD) in several populations worldwide, yet the risk varies by region and ethnicity. The aims of this study were to describe APOE allele and genotype frequencies and examine the relationship between the APOE ε4 allele and LOAD risk in an Ecuadorian Mestizo population.

Abstract:

Polygenic risk scores (PRS) based on genome-wide discoveries are promising predictors or classifiers of disease development, severity, and/or progression for common clinical outcomes. A major limitation of most risk scores is the paucity of genome-wide discoveries in diverse populations, prompting an emphasis to generate these needed data for trans-population and population-specific PRS construction. Given diverse genome-wide discoveries are just now being completed, there has been little opportunity for PRS to be evaluated in diverse populations independent from the discovery efforts. To fill
