In animal studies it has long been determined that protein balance is achieved by behavioral strategies (9– 13), whereas in humans it is less clear whether behavioral strategies exist to avoid protein shortages (5– 7).
Across-taxa quantitative genetic methods have long since determined that substantial additive genetic variance is responsible for traits and behaviors associated with migration (Berthold 1988; Dingle 1991; Pulido and Berthold 2003; Pulido et al. 2001; Roff and Fairbairn 2007), and we are only beginning to understand the genetic and molecular mechanisms involved in variation in migration tendency.
Prior studies have also produced controversial results with respect to the significance of this factor: certain studies have determined that heavy long-term alcohol consumption is a risk factor for stroke [ 88], but other studies have reached the opposite conclusion [ 89].
