M. Sh. BadawyCorresponding author

Background: Co-morbidities are associated with increasing risk of mortality, hospitalizations and costs of treatment in Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease patients. Identification of Co- morbidities related to COPD phenotypes may guide individualized therapies and achieve better prognosis. Method…

Introduction Bovine papillomavirus (BPV) is the etiological agent of bovine papillomatosis, infectious and neoplastic disease, characterized by the presence of multiple papillomas that can regress spontaneously or to persist and progress to malignancies when in association with environmental cofacto…

Age Variation in Bitter Taste Perception in Relation to the Tas2r38 Taste Receptor Phenotype

Jun 2015 DOI 10.14302/issn.2379-7835.ijn-14-591
Rossella NegriCorresponding author

Objectives Taste sensitivity is an important determinant of food choice and differs between children and adults. This difference is probably due to several factors that constitute an individual’s phenotype. The aim of this study was to explore taste perception in relation to the TAS2R38 and CAVI (gu…

Frond emission from pinnae tips in Nephrolepis cordifolia

Sep 2026 DOI 10.14302/issn.2638-4469.japb-26-6401
Luigi d’AquinoCorresponding author

The emission of completely developed secondary fronds from pinnae tips is described for the first time in a fern belonging to the species Nephrolepis cordifolia. The phenotype described in the paper has so far been reported very rarely and only in other Nephrolepisspecies. The phenotype demonstrates…

Pnpla3/Adiponutrin Deficiency in Mice Does Not Contribute to Steatohepatitis, Fibrosis or Cholestatic Liver Injury

Mar 2026 DOI 10.14302/issn.2641-9181.ijnr-25-5844
Michael TraunerCorresponding author

A sequence variation (I148M) in the patatin-like phospholipase domain-containing protein 3 (PNPLA3) gene has been linked to metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) and the progression of MASLD and other chronic liver diseases towards fibrosis and cancer. To elucidate the rol…

Interactions Between Natural Nuclear Reactors and Microbial Evolutionary Processes

Feb 2026 DOI 10.14302/issn.2689-4602.jes-25-5926
Chuck EasttomCorresponding author

The impact of ionizing radiation on genetic change is well established, yet the extent to which naturally occurring radiation fields have influenced evolutionary trajectories remains incompletely understood. This study examined correlations between microbial evolution and the radiation and geochemic…

Genotypic Diversity among Salmonella Typhi Isolated from Children Living in Informal Settlements in Nairobi, Kenya

Sep 2024 DOI 10.14302/issn.2690-4721.ijcm-24-5195
Susan Mutile KavaiCorresponding author

The persistence of multidrug-resistant (MDR) Salmonella Typhi (S. Typhi) is a challenge especially in regions where typhoid is endemic. Surveillance of circulating genotypes of MDR S. Typhi is crucial in typhoid acute cases and carriers. This study aimed to investigate genotypic diversity of S. Typh…

RET 898-901Del mutant, a variant of unknown significance, has a durable response to Pralsetinib in a Medullary Thyroid Carcinoma patient

Sep 2023 DOI 10.14302/issn.2574-4496.jtc-23-4722
Patrick J. ConwayCorresponding author

Background Patients with distant metastatic Medullary Thyroid Carcinoma (MTC) have an estimated 40% ten-year survival rate. Gain of function mutations in the REarranged during Transfection or RET gene in MTC can result in an aggressive phenotype resistant to traditional therapy. In this case report,…

Cross-Reactivity between COX-2 Inhibitors in Patients with Cross-Reactive Hypersensitivity to NSAIDs

Sep 2022 DOI 10.14302/issn.2641-4538.jphi-22-4238
Sevim BavbekCorresponding author

The safety of cyclooxygenase (COX)-2 inhibitors has been tested in patients who had cross-reactive hypersensitivity reactions (HSRs) to nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs). However, these studies have been mainly done before the current classification of NSAID hypersensitivity and cross-re…

Missing Heritability and Missing Co-heritability in Genomic Studies

Oct 2021 DOI 10.14302/issn.2639-3166.jar-21-3952
Prem NarainCorresponding author

This methods‑focused review addresses missing heritability and co‑heritability in genomic studies, considering polygenicity, rare variants, gene–gene and gene–environment interactions, and phenotype definition. It surveys analytical strategies—from improved GWAS modeling to partitioning heritability…

Sunspots are Correlated with Foliar pH in Grapevines

Dec 2019 DOI 10.14302/issn.2639-3166.jar-19-3116
Giorgio MasoeroCorresponding author

Foliar pH is a specific multifaceted parameter that is sensitive to a deficit in soil water and to temperature variations. It also represents a tool that can be used to rapidly phenotype the symbiosis induced in several crops by bio-fertilizers containing Arbuscular Mycorrhizal Fungi. Yearly decreas…
