Single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) has led to remarkable progress in our understanding of tissue heterogeneity in health and disease. Recently, the need for scRNA-seq sample fixation has emerged in many scenarios, such as when samples need long-term transportation, or when experiments need to be temporally synchronized.

Comprehensive national joint replacement registries with well-validated data offer unique opportunities for examining the potential future burden of hip and knee osteoarthritis (OA) at a population level. This study aimed to forecast the burden of primary total knee (TKR) and hip replacements (THR) performed for OA in Australia to the year 2030, and to model the impact of contrasting obesity scenarios on TKR burden.

Data on single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) have been found to be useful in predicting phenotypes ranging from an individual’s class membership to his/her risk of developing a disease. In multi-class classification scenarios, clinical samples are often limited due to cost constraints, making it necessary to determine the sample size needed to build an accurate classifier based on SNPs.

Part of the missing heritability in Genome Wide Association Studies (GWAS) is expected to be explained by interactions between genetic variants, also called epistasis. Various statistical methods have been developed to detect epistasis in case-control GWAS.

Neuroblastoma is a pediatric cancer with a low survival rate of patients with metastatic stage 4 disease. Tumor aggressiveness and progression have been associated with structural copy number variations (CNVs) that are observed in malignant cells. In contrast, localized Neuroblastomas, which are associated with a low number of structural CNVs but frequent numerical CNVs, are less aggressive, and patients have good outcomes.

(BQ) For this reason this version differs from previous editions of Yamada’s Handbook by providing Key Practice Points, easily identified in “call-out boxes” in each chapter, which highlight the most important factors that guide clinical care. The case scenarios created for each chapter in Part 1: “Approach to Patients with Gastrointestinal Symptoms” are accompanied by discussions that we hope will provide the context necessary to translate medical knowledge to clinical practice.

The present study was aimed at understanding the socio-economic conditions and adoption of sheep management practices in Karauli district of Rajasthan, India as it serves as a benchmark for evolving meaningful extension strategies and other policy interventions. The scenario in Karauli district revealed that sheep production is in the hands of traditional farmers; rearing under the extensive system of management. Most of the farmers had a poor socio-economic background with illiteracy. Majority is rearing a hairy coated dual purpose breed with small flock sizes ranging from 25 to 50 heads.

Stem rust is one of the most prevailing diseases of wheat crop severely affecting yield. The disease constrains wheat production and henceforth lags the demand. Identifying genes providing resistance from stem rust has been quite important in present scenario. One such gene providing resistance to stem rust is Sr2 which has provided durable, broad-spectrum, adult plant resistance and has been used as a potential control measure against wheat stem rust in modern wheat breeding programs worldwide.

Weeds are ubiquitous in nature and invade both crop and non-crop lands. When present in crop fields, weeds compete with the crops for nutrients, soil moisture, solar radiation and space; hence reduce their productivity and quality. But, they have been the most underrated crop pests despite the fact that these are weeds which cause heavy loss in crop yield rather than other pests. It has been reported that, out of total loss of agriculture production from several pests in India, weed account for about 37%, insect for 29%, diseases for 22% and other pests for 12%.

Chronic suppurative otitis media (CSOM) is a persistent, insidious and potentially dangerous disease because of its various fatal complications. It is still a significant health problem in developing countries. It is the common cause of conductive deafness. Change in the bacteriological scenario with indiscriminate use of antimicrobial agents has been associated with the emergence of multiple drug resistant strains. Information regarding the common pathogens and their antibiotic sensitivities is essential for the proper choice of antibiotics.

The non-judicious use of agrochemicals has created a vicious impact on the environment and its inhabitants which is a major concern among society these days; although, thinking and attitude towards its use has changed and there is a growing interest to develop its alternative. On the other hand, the use of microorganisms that antagonize plant pathogens (biological control) is a risk-free approach and the species of Trichoderma are well recognized as agents for plant disease control in addition to its promontory effect on plant growth.
