A screening tool can be crucial in the identification of bereaved individuals susceptible to developing complications during a period of grief.
Mice lacking one or both copies of the p27Kip1 Cdk inhibitor are susceptible to developing a variety of tumor types when exposed to mutagenic agents.
9 Further, it should be noted that elderly patients with renal dysfunction are particularly susceptible to developing high concentrations of digoxin, with an increased risk of cardiac toxicity, which consequently increases the mortality risk.
These possibilities cannot be definitely ruled out, however, are very unlikely in view of the following facts: 1) Literature is devoid of any metformin-induced cases of BP and of evidence for patients with type 2 diabetes being susceptible to developing BP or capable of producing autoantibodies against BP antigens.
In our recent article (Rossi et al. 2009), we grouped cancer types into three groups, and we showed for all of these groups that subjects with high levels of CAs are more susceptible to developing cancer than are subjects with low or medium levels of CAs; this indicates that CA is an inherited susceptibility marker for cancer regardless of cancer type.
Mice on a C57Bl/6 background are susceptible for developing the neurological signs of CM and usually die 7 12 days post infection.
The results presented here indicate that the age-specific incidence data for most human carcinomas is consistent with the parallel route hypothesis as expressed in Equations 3 and 4. The parallel routes hypothesis, then, implies (through the age specific-incidence data) that only a subset of the population is susceptible to developing each carcinoma.
Since HBeAg-negative patients with higher HBsAg levels were more susceptible to developing active disease, quantification of HBsAg in such patients merits further investigation.
Whether boys are more likely than girls to have reading disabilities is still unclear, but this gender-related mechanism might be the cause of boys being more susceptible to developing dyslexia.
Mice that received extra stimulation like being trained to find rewards of Honey Nut Cheerios were less susceptible to developing a strong preference for a chamber where they later were exposed to cocaine.
