However, the evidence of impact on low birth weight is strong, as reviewed in article 3. The magnitude of effect on preterm delivery appears to be based on a number of factors, including timing of infection [ 33, 37], underlying parity [ 38], severity of infection [ 33], increasing placental parasitemia [ 39], and local transmission rates [ 35].
As reviewed in this article, the multi-dimensional structure of the data can be taken into account to improve further the estimation of the model order.
As reviewed in this article, biogeographers have now an exciting new set of tools with which to address evolutionary questions beyond where and when lineages diversified.
As reviewed in this article, recent experimental studies have pointed to newly recognized roles of certain keratins in apoptosis, cell growth, tissue polarity, wound response, and tissue remodeling.
As reviewed in this article, Mtb has evolved specific mechanisms to protect itself against endogenously produced oxidants, as well as defend against host and environmental oxidants and reductants found specifically within the microenvironments of the lung.
Currently, general genetic tools have been developed in Z. mobilis since the 1980s, including native plasmids, broad host-range vectors or shuttle vectors, expression system, gene transfer, promoter, and reporter gene, as reviewed in other articles [ 8, 11, 13].
As reviewed in an accompanying article in this mini-monograph (Navas-Acien et al. 2007), studies conducted in general population cohorts have consistently observed a positive association between lead exposure and cardiovascular disease.
As reviewed in an accompanying article in this mini-monograph (Shih et al. 2007), there is evidence that at low levels of lead exposure, biomarkers of cumulative lead exposure, such as lead in bone, may be associated with an adverse impact on neurocognitive function that is not reflected by measurement of lead in blood.
The findings that GLP-1 receptors are expressed through out the mesolimbic dopamine system [ 110] and that GLP-1 containing neurons project directly to the VTA and NAc [ 111], suggest that the role of GLP-1 extends beyond food intake and glucose regulation and may include reward regulation as reviewed in this leading article.
As long as the issues reviewed in this article are not addressed, results of studies based on standard disease activity scores such as DAS28 should be considered with caution.
