Resistance to these insecticides in key vector species, such as Anopheles gambiae, can be conferred by a point-mutation in the target site, the sodium channel gene, which is known as knock-down resistance (kdr) [7], [8].
Statistically significant between group differences were found in the Total Motor Quotient (TMQ) PDMS-2 scores, conferring an 8.05 point advantage to the GAME intervention group (95% CI 3.88-12.27; p < 0.001).
By E. J. Kahn The New Yorker, June 23 , 1951P. 54 Secretary of Defense Marshall spent only a little over six hours in Korea during his unexpected visit to the Far East but he made a point of conferring, however briefly, with every one of the commanders of the non-American units serving in combat as part of the Eighth United States Army.

In order to improve recovery of bacteria from mucosal sites, a double-antibiotic-resistant strain was constructed by transforming S. gordonii GP1300 with the chromosomal DNA of S. gordonii GP204 [ 33], that carries a point mutation conferring resistance to streptomycin.
The data presented here show that, in P. chabaudi, a single point mutation confers a distinct shift in artemisinin responses.
The horror of genocide does not confer the right to inflict suffering - a point lost on some Israelis and Rwandans.
Schatz et al 25 reported that the minimally important difference (MID) for ACT is a decrease of three points, which confers a 76% increased risk of short-acting β-agonist (SABA) use and 33% increased exacerbations over 12 months.
An example of comorbid illnesses is the diagnosis of cancer, which confers two points, whereas an example of a functional impairment is the inability to bathe oneself, conferring two points.
All five vectors carry a mutated downstream stretch of the sdi1 sequence, carrying a carboxin resistance-conferring point mutation (H267L; Fig. 2A, left flank), and a sequence stretch downstream of sdi1 (Fig. 2A, right flank of sdi1).
