To characterize the host miRNAs involved in virus infection, the expression profiles of miRNAs of virus-free and WSSV-infected shrimp at various times after infection were compared.
Only genes that were differentially regulated more than three-fold in both IBV-infected chickens in response to IBV infection were compared to those of control birds and used for further analysis and validation by real-time PCR in this study.
For the EMSCOT cohort, no significant associations were observed for any SNPs at ABCA4 or COL2A1 when congenitally infected children of mothers with primary gestational infection were compared with children of mothers with primary gestational infection who did not transmit infection to the fetus (Table 1 and data not shown).
In a case-control study design, 32 IVF cycles in couples with male HBV infection were compared with 64 cycles in non-infected couples, matched for age, time period, cycle rank and sperm parameters on the day of oocyte retrieval.
Heart and spleen indices data from all vaccinated groups (including the mock-immunized/infected group as positive control for infection) were compared among themselves and between the non-infected group (healthy control).
Transcriptional profiles of MDCKII #1, Calu-3 and U-87MG cells susceptible to H18-pseudotyped VLP infection were compared to those of non-susceptible MDCKII #2, A549 and U-118MG cells, respectively.
Rates of blood culture confirmed EOS, selected maternal and infant variables and pathogens associated with infection were compared between 2002-2003 and 2 previously published cohorts.
Levels of Dm-AMP1 and/or Rs-AFP2 in transgenic lines, Blast and sheath blight infection assay results (% DLA and % infection) were compared by one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) using cropstat program developed by IRRI.
The bacterial loads in blood and kidneys after 24 h of infection were compared.
Allelic frequencies and multiplicity of infection were compared by the exact Fisher and Kruskall-Wallis tests, respectively.
Positive correlation was observed then the reactivities to rMtb-HBHA and PPD, an indicator of vaccination or infection, were compared for all the tested samples (Fig. 1D).
