Brain metastases are associated with a dismal prognosis. Whether brain metastases harbor
distinct genetic alterations beyond those observed in primary tumors is unknown. We …

Meningiomas are the most common primary nervous system tumor. The tumor suppressor
NF2 is disrupted in approximately half of all meningiomas 1 , but the complete spectrum of …

Unsteady-lift functions for wings of finite aspect ratio have been calculated by correcting the
aerodynamic inertia and the angle of attack of the infinite wing. The calculations are based …

Supergenes are tight clusters of loci that facilitate the co-segregation of adaptive variation,
providing integrated control of complex adaptive phenotypes 1 . Polymorphic supergenes, in …

Craniopharyngiomas are epithelial tumors that typically arise in the suprasellar region of the
brain 1 . Patients experience substantial clinical sequelae from both extension of the tumors …

Low-aspect-ratio wings having pointed plan forms are treated on the assumption that the
flow potentials in planes at right angles to the long axis of the airfoils are similar to the …

The diagnosed incidence of small intestine neuroendocrine tumors (SI-NETs) is increasing,
and the underlying genomic mechanisms have not yet been defined. Using exome- and …

BACKGROUND Cervical cancer is the second leading cause of cancer deaths among
women worldwide. The objective of this study was to describe the most common oncogenic …

Heliconius butterflies represent a recent radiation of species, in which wing pattern divergence
has been implicated in speciation. Several loci that control wing pattern phenotypes have …

Two human pathogenic bacteria, Staphylococcus aureus CIP 68.5 and Pseudomonas
aeruginosa ATCC 9025, were adsorbed onto surfaces containing Ti thin films of varying thickness …
