Large concentrations of men who are separated from their families to work in mining, commercial agriculture, and other industries tend to provide a ready market for sex workers, who contribute disproportionately to the rapid spread of HIV because of high partner turnover.
This suggests that plasmid encoded genes are disproportionately inactive during rapid growth.
Furthermore, relatively few lemur individuals contributed disproportionately to the rapid spread of lice throughout the population.
Given that rapid weight recovery leads disproportionately to fat gain rather than lean tissue gain, it will skew the overall body composition to a higher fat percentage, which will subsequently be "locked in" once the leptin signalling reaches a high enough level to trigger the establishment of a body composition set point.
Low- and middle-income countries suffer the greatest impact, and the rapid increase in these diseases disproportionately affects poor and disadvantaged populations; contributing to widening health gaps between and within countries.
The use of weighted foreign economic growth rates as instruments for changes in foreign investment has the potential to produce misleading results if the foreign investments of firms planning rapid expansion of domestic investment are disproportionately attracted to economies expected to grow rapidly (Hanson et al. 2001).
Transcriptionally inducible genes are disproportionately represented in the class of genes with rapid mRNA turnover.
Consequently children on stavudine continue to be exposed to a disproportionately high dose, which may result in more rapid accumulation of metabolic adverse effects than adults on the reduced dose.
Ernest Drucker, my colleague and a professor of epidemiology as well as family and community medicine, classifies incarceration as an epidemic because it is a situation with widespread and rapid onset over 35 years, it affects a disproportionately large number of people within a population, and its spread and adverse effects are felt even by those who are not incarcerated.
Youth with type 2 diabetes experience more significant and rapid declines in beta cell function and suffer from disproportionately higher levels of mental problems and social adversity.
