Androgens were not related to breast density in any of these studies, but most studies reported higher breast density with higher sex hormone binding globulin (SHBG) levels, which appears to contradict the inverse relation between SHBG levels and postmenopausal breast cancer risk shown in many studies [ 12, 13].
Although there are some studies on individual variation in gibbon songs [ 9, 11], there is no systematic study available to confirm whether individual variation or variation at group level is high enough to contradict a possible relation between song structure and genetic relatedness among closely related species.
On the other hand, the phenotypes of our experimental populations bred in the laboratory seem to contradict a persistent ecophenotypic differentiation between dwarf and normal whitefish.
But Ms. Betancourt's 2,321 days of vigilant observation seems to contradict that notion, especially regarding relationships between older male commanders and young, nubile female guerrillas.
Our results in dietary pattern analysis appear to contradict previous reports investigating the relationship between dietary patterns and BMD.
It is an interesting result that seems to contradict existing literature showing a link between internalised stigma and ART adherence [ 25, 26].
Results on the consequences of STDP in large-scale networks are few and far between, and tend to contradict each other.
These results seem to contradict most previous analyses on correlation between the transcriptome and the proteome which only report minor correlation [ 12, 21- 23].
These findings would seem to contradict evidence demonstrating a strong link between spectral tuning and signal colouration in other vertebrate groups, [ 65, 66], and the belief that UV type pigments offer a dramatic advantage by improving sensitivity in this short wave range [ 67].
The reduced performance of donors in between-region crosses could be interpreted to contradict the predictions of sexual conflict theory.
