Hedonic valuation of land protection methods: implications for cluster development. حسب Kling, Robert

"…The key findings of the study are: (i) proximity to national or state park land and to city or county open space has a significant positive impact on property values, while proximity to national forest land or to privately conserved land exhibits no significant effects; and, (ii) inclusion of a property within a cluster development decreases its value by 17 to 26 %. …"

Renin–angiotensin-system gene polymorphisms and depression حسب Saab, Yolande B.

"…None of the other common RAS-associated polymorphisms were significantly associated. The results support the hypothesis that increased RAS activity may increase relative risk of depression in that the angiotensin receptor type 1 (A1166C) CC genotype is associated with increased responsiveness to angiotensin II.…"

A slow but steady nanoLuc: R162A mutation results in a decreased, but stable, nanoLuc activity حسب Wesam S. Ahmed (10170053)

"…In this regard, engineering of brighter bioluminescent proteins, i.e. luciferases, has played a significant role. This is acutely exemplified by the engineering of the NLuc <u>luciferase</u>, which is small in size and displays much enhanced bioluminescence and<u> thermal stability</u> compared to previously available luciferases. …"

Strong association of common variants in the IGF2BP2 gene with type 2 diabetes in Lebanese Arabs حسب Nemr, Rita

"…Taking the common rs4402960/rs1470579 GA haplotype as reference, multivariate analysis confirmed the positive association of TC (P = 0.009; OR, 1.43; 95%CI, 1.09–1.87), and TA (P < 0.001; OR = 5.49; 95%CI = 2.09–14.39) haplotypes with increased T2DM risk. These differences remained significant after applying the Bonferroni correction for multiple testing. …"
