Thus, our functional genomics studies have enabled us to elucidate multiple consequences of neutrophil exposure to glucocorticoids, highlighting a probable role for this interaction in the induction of parturition and partly explaining why some parturient dairy cows may experience heightened incidence and severity of inflammatory diseases like mastitis.
The heightened incidence of sexual violence, displacement and reduced access to HIV services that occur in conditions of violence and instability exacerbate the spread of HIV.
However, the excess of thymoma in the US is not limited to Japanese (National Cancer Institute Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results data, authors' unpublished analyses), and the heightened thymoma incidence in Asians/Pacific Islanders might be due to other genetic or environmental factors.
The balance--a matter of 11 votes in the House--may have been tipped when, just a few days before the roll was called, the charge was made that the SST would cause atmospheric changes that might heighten the incidence of skin cancer.
However, long exposures of the environment to CWD prions may create strong environmental reservoirs of CWD capable of efficient transmission, which could sustain or heighten disease incidence (8 ; S.E. Saunders et al., unpub. data).
Several studies have reported heightened anxiety, depression, and an increased incidence of post-traumatic stress disorder 11 12 13 in earthquake survivors, and these effects can last for several years.
Answers to the second objective would be important in targeting areas identified as having high incidences of breast cancer for heightened surveillance and education, as well as formulating new hypotheses for further research.
Coincidentally, incidences of these diseases among the vulnerable populations are heightened during the peak raining season.
Thus, incidence of aggregation is reduced, colloidal stability is heightened, and their ease of use is ensured for further interrogation of protease activity in biological preparations.
