For example, studies of the children and grandchildren of pregnant women who endured starvation in the second world war and in China in the 50s have revealed they tended to be smaller and more prone to diabetes and psychosis.
For example, studies of the HD population in Venezuela revealed that there is great variability in the age of onset (the age at which symptoms first appear) of HD.
For example, studies of the mitochondrial genome indicate that humans migrating from Asia to the Americas 30,000 years ago may have been stranded on Beringia, a vast area that included a land bridge in the present-day Bering Strait, for as long as 15,000 years before arriving in the Americas.
This result has arisen in a number of European studies, including, for example, studies of the UK using Census and Citizenship Survey data (Becares 2011), and studies of twenty-eight septe European countries in Gesthuizen et al. (2009).
Other action and policy oriented research includes, for example, studies of the "gender gap" in voting patterns, the gendered nature of poverty world-wide, and the differential impact of development policies on women.
For example, studies of the cost of heat induced reductions in labor productivity from global warming approximate $2 trillion per year by 2030.
For example, studies of the gasteroid genera Astraeus and Pisolithus indicate the existence of numerous cryptic taxa.
For example, studies of the forces exerted by muscles and gravity on dinosaurs' skeletal structure have investigated how fast dinosaurs could run, whether diplodocids could create sonic booms via whip-like tail snapping, and whether sauropods could float.
For example, studies of the indirect effects of viruses on their vectors have revealed a variety of outcomes, ranging from positive [2], [5] [10], neutral [11], [12], to negative [13], [14].
The latter phenomenon has also been identified in, for example, studies of the use of information from the internet in consultations.
