An important feature of a population panel is that it is expected to exhibit appreciable phenotypic variation across individual lines.
This adds to the diagnostic difficulties posed by the often overlapping clinical features of meningitis a population with a high HIV prevalence, further compounded by the presence of dual pathology in a small proportion of cases (table).
In 2002, we combined the data obtained by 4 different typing methods, performed on a batch of 73 unrelated clinical and environmental P. aeruginosa isolates, collected across the world and observed a clear mosaicism in the results and a non-congruence between experiments, features of a panmictic population structure [13].
Economic educational characteristics, medical condition, situation and desperation for treatment may offer any hope were not acknowledge as features of a vulnerable population.
Judging probability based on the essential features of a parent population is a heuristic, a mental short cut, which in all likelihood will be inaccurate and lead to false faith in some cases, and missed opportunities in other cases [ 35].
To describe the clinical and electrophysiologic features of an unselected population of patients diagnosed clinically or genetically with oculopharyngeal muscular dystrophy (OPMD), and to discern any association with a peripheral neuropathy.
Although the population is not highly selected, we think that our finding is not a feature of a general population, but rather reflects who seeks medical help.
We have characterized the spectrum of SLC26A4 mutations and clinical features in a population of mainland Chinese patients with nonsyndromic sensorineural hearing loss (SNHL) and enlarged vestibular aqueduct (EVA).
To date, there has been no systematic study in a strict evolutionary context that comprehensively characterizes the structural and genomic features of a large, unbiased population of evolutionarily young gene duplicates in the human genome.
