The Link Between Rapid Enigmatic Amphibian Decline and the Globally Emerging Chytrid Fungus
Amphibians are globally declining and approximately one-third of all species are threatened with extinction. Some of the most severe declines have...

Permutation entropy to detect vigilance changes and preictal states from scalp EEG in epileptic patients. A preliminary study
Permutation entropy (PE) was recently introduced as a very fast and robust algorithm to detect dynamic complexity changes in time series. It was also...

Pituitary-hormone secretion by thyrotropinomas
Hormone secretion by somatotropinomas, corticotropinomas and prolactinomas exhibits increased pulse frequency, basal and pulsatile secretion,...

Genetic association studies for gene expressions: permutation-based mutual information in a comparison with standard ANOVA and as a novel approach for feature selection
Mutual information (MI) is a robust nonparametric statistical approach for identifying associations between genotypes and gene expression levels....

Heterogeneity in mammography use across the nation: separating evidence of disparities from the disproportionate effects of geography
BackgroundMammography is essential for early detection of breast cancer and both reduced morbidity and increased survival among breast cancer...

Methodological issues in detecting gene-gene interactions in breast cancer susceptibility: a population-based study in Ontario
BackgroundThere is growing evidence that gene-gene interactions are ubiquitous in determining the susceptibility to common human diseases. The...

Evaluating the discriminatory power of EQ-5D, HUI2 and HUI3 in a US general population survey using Shannon’s indices
ObjectivesTo compare quantitatively the discriminatory power of the EQ-5D, HUI2 and HUI3 in terms of absolute and relative informativity, using...

Treatment Enhances Ultradian Rhythms of CSF Monoamine Metabolites in Patients with Major Depressive Episodes
Unipolar and bipolar depressions show abnormal behavioral manifestations of ultradian (less than 24 h) rhythms, but abnormal rhythms of the central...
