In the proposed deal, the league agreed to spend $10 million on unspecified research, a pittance given the expense of doing large-scale, long-term studies that specialists say are needed to determine critical issues like who might be predisposed to developing neurological problems from head trauma.
These data provide evidence as to why horses with EMS may be predisposed to developing laminitis, potentially as a result of an exaggerated inflammatory response to glycemic and insulinemic responses.
The high level of aneuploidy in LmnaDhe/+ cells predicts that these mice might be predisposed to developing tumors, but they are not.
The molecular mechanisms associated with these phenomena remain unknown; however, emerging evidence suggests that when an infant does not develop essential defense mechanisms, he or she may be predisposed to developing disease later on in life.
TTD patients display developmental retardation, neurological abnormalities due to dysmyelination, and some also have photosensitivity, but they do seem not to be predisposed to developing skin cancer (Hashimoto and Egly, 2009; Bergmann and Egly, 2001).
A study by Schwimmer et al [ 16] identified an extremely high heritability estimate (h = 0.850; standard error, 0.325), for fatty liver disease in a predominantly Hispanic cohort suggesting that Hispanics may be predisposed to developing NAFLD.
However, we cannot exclude a role of cyclosporine in the genesis of headache not directly related to its high level; since in particular some patients may be predisposed to develop headache.
Personality testing was used in United States (US) army recruitment during World War I in an attempt to predict those who may be predisposed to develop psychological disorders [ 20].
This concept was also thought to account for sex differences in disease because mothers with non-host cells from their sons may be predisposed to develop autoimmune disease if they have the right genetic background (i.e., HLA susceptibility for example) [ 145].
