When studying groups of sequences limited to a few species, we often detected anomalies in trees or evolutionary distances that were consistent with problems of orthology assignment (some EST-based sequences corresponding to out-paralogs).
A key challenge, however, is ensuring that the alternative framings being considered are consistent with the problem, as determined through the type of systematic analysis described above.
Our findings are consistent with communication related problems for pregnant immigrant women in other western settings who experienced adverse birth outcomes [ 7, 8, 37- 39].
These effects are consistent with the known problems with parsimony when base composition is biased [ 21], namely an excess of common-to-rare changes (in this case an excess of non CpG to CpG changes).
Factoring in all of these issues, we believe that our results are consistent with other studies suggesting problems in the quality of chronic disease care within the DHS.
The slightly lower estimates based upon PL are consistent with saturation being a problem, but presumably only for the deepest branches in the tree.
The problems are consistent with what some humanitarians call a crisis of resilience – there have been three serious food crises since 2005, meaning people simply cannot absorb any more shocks.
Santa Anita's problems are consistent with a much wider discussion regarding the role racetrack surfaces play in racehorse injuries and fatalities – a debate that reached fever pitch when, in the first two weeks of Del Mar's annual summer meet, four horses were fatally injured on a turf course that had been replaced only months before.
Now Gödel was, unlike the later advocates of the so-called Gödelian anti-mechanist argument, sensitive enough to admit that both mechanism and the alternative that there are humanly absolutely unsolvable problems are consistent with his incompleteness theorems.
Our results on alcohol-related problems are consistent with those of Maes et al. Different methods may explain the partial discrepancy.
