Complications of medical care impose heavier morbidity than previously considered with some indication that socio-demographic variables modify the risk for injuries.
These data suggest that self-reported injuries due to complications of medical care impose heavier morbidity than previously considered with some indication that socio-demographic variables modify the risk for injuries.
These confounding effects can, in principle, be separated by examining multiple loci since demographic history modifies the genetic pattern of the whole genome whereas only certain loci are affected by selection [ 1].
Examining both native and invasive pest populations can provide important insights on the origins of insecticide resistance mutations and how selection and demographic events modify patterns of genetic variability [ 10, 13].
