Also, there is a dearth of population CNV at this locus.
In this regard, the Tibeto-Burman speaking populations inhabiting the easternmost tip of northeast India, Arunachal Pradesh, (sharing the international border between India and Bhutan, Tibet, Myanmar) were hardly dealt with and hence there exist a dearth of population genetic studies in this region [21] [24].
The dearth of population-based data on hyperglycemia and diabetes [2], as well as on disease progression and mortality limits our ability to intervene appropriately.
In developing countries such as the Philippines, the dearth of population-based incidence data renders the analysis of trends difficult.
2 4 However, apart from individual conditions such as Down syndrome, 6 Rett syndrome, 27 Tuberous Sclerosis 28 and Angelman syndrome 29 and a recent paper describing the increase over time in resource utilisation by children with neurological impairment, 30 there is a dearth of population-based data on medical comorbidities associated with ID.
Furthermore, there is also a dearth of published population-based colorectal cancer survival estimates from developing countries, and comparisons of these with data from developed countries are limited [ 2, 10, 11].
This is reiterated in the AAOPR report [ 7] which has the following comment: "A particularly troublesome issue here is that there is a dearth of highly accurate population parameters to use in weighting cell phone samples of regional, state and local areas".
Differences in adult peripheral blood expression have also been documented between mothers who did or did not transmit HIV to their children [15], but there is a dearth of information on the population structure of maternal and neonate gene expression profiles.
We nevertheless included those indicators in our data collection instrument, as we saw this dearth of direct effects on population health or health inequalities as indicative of a knowledge gap in the literature.
The high risk profile, coupled with a dearth of research in this population, prompts exploration of issues that affect HSB in Filipino migrants to inform strategies to address behaviour change in this group.
There has been a dearth of studies involving pediatric populations, in whom the long-term effects of HIV infection on the CNS may be particularly devastating, and in women, who may have less access to care in some settings and/or may be more vulnerable to the effects of substance dependence on some aspects of neurocognitive function [ 136– 136].
