Most of our understanding plant genome structure and evolution has come from the careful annotation small (e.g., 100 kb) sequenced genomic regions or automated complete sequences. Here, we carefully annotated a contiguous 22 Mb region maize chromosome 4 using an improved pseudomolecule for annotation. The sequence segment was comprehensively ordered, oriented, confirmed optical map. Nearly 84% is composed transposable elements (TEs) that are mostly nested within each other, which most...
Assessing the relationship between vitamin K1 intakes, using region-specific food databases, with both all-cause, and cardiovascular disease (CVD) mortality warrants further investigation to inform future preventative strategies. Consequently, we examined aforementioned associations in Perth Longitudinal Study of Ageing Women (PLSAW).
Abstract Introduction Despite increasing use of bioprosthetic surgical aortic valve replacement (bAVR) in patients ≤70 years [1, 2], the relative benefits compared to mechanical (mAVR) remain uncertain [3, 4]. Purpose The current study aims compare mortality and other important clinical endpoints by prosthesis type for aged 50-70 who received an AVR a well-characterised Australian cohort. Methods A retrospective cohort was designed utilising WAVES Patient Registry incorporating linked...
Abstract Introduction Patient prosthesis mismatch (PPM) after surgical aortic valve replacement (SAVR) occurs when the valve’s effective orifice area (EOA) does not allow appropriate cardiac output to meet demand, causing increased transvalvular gradients. The literature is conflicting regarding effect of PPM on long-term mortality and other adverse outcomes. Purpose To characterise all-cause mortality, cardiovascular death, heart failure hospitalisation major events (MACE; a composite...
