33 Together with the Betaseron Pregnancy Registry, the preponderance of data suggest no pattern of increased negative outcomes for women and infants exposed to interferon β formulations during pregnancy, a finding that was supported by a recent review of the literature related to interferon β exposure during pregnancy (N=1105).
The preponderance of rabies deaths connected with the two uncommon L. noctivagans and P. subflavus bat rabies viruses is best explained by their evolution of increased viral infectivity.
This topic is supported also by familial occurrence, genetic predisposition, female preponderance, and increased likelihood of other autoimmune diseases, like systemic lupus erythematosus, rheumatoid arthritis, Sjogren's syndrome, multiple sclerosis, and endocrine disorders [ 8, 39].
Similarly, in human cocaine addicts, increased, decreased, and no change in DAT levels have been observed, with a preponderance of studies showing increased DAT levels in human addicts.

One might expect, therefore, that standard short read assemblers developed for microbial/animal genomes may encounter analogous difficulties to the ones discussed here, albeit on a smaller scale, simply because of this increased preponderance of highly similar sequences in plants.
