CONCEPT, DESIGN AND IMPLEMENTATION OF A CARDIOVASCULAR GENE-CENTRIC 50 K SNP ARRAY FOR LARGE-SCALE GENOMIC ASSOCIATION STUDIES.

Concept, design and implementation of a cardiovascular gene-centric 50 k SNP array for large-scale genomic association studies.

A wealth of genetic associations for cardiovascular and metabolic phenotypes in humans has been accumulating over the last decade, in particular a large number of loci derived from recent genome wide association studies (GWAS).True complex disease-associated loci often exert modest effects, so their delineation currently requires integration of div

Amyloid myopathy: a diagnostic challenge

Amyloid myopathy (AM) is a rare manifestation of primary systemic amyloidosis (AL).Like inflammatory myopathies, it presents with proximal muscle weakness and an increased creatine kinase level.We describe a case of AL with severe, rapidly progressive T-Shirt myopathy as the initial symptom.The clinical manifestation and muscle biopsy were suggesti

Korean loanwords in Indonesian; A corpus-based study

The borrowing of foreign lexicon in Indonesian is well documented.However, to date, research on Korean loanwords has remained unavailable.Against the backdrop of the Korean Wave (hallyu), this paper Fluids discusses the phonological adaptation of Korean loanwords in Indonesian and the way these loanwords contribute to the Indonesian lexical landsca
