Article Synopsis
- The software STRUCTURE is widely used for determining population structure in genetic studies, but about 30% of its findings cannot be consistently reproduced, raising concerns about its reliability.* -
- An analysis of 2,323 horses from various domestic breeds and the Przewalski horse showed that different methods yielded similar broad breed relationships but varied in identifying finer details.* -
- The study suggests moving away from complex methods like the Δ method in STRUCTURE, advocating for simpler qualitative approaches that provide consistent results with fewer computational demands.*
With evolving techniques for analysis of blood pressure (BP) variability, the importance of sampling resolution for intra-operative BP still remains to be examined. This study aims at comparing BP data with beat-by-beat vs. 15 second resolution.

Objective: To assess preliminary outcomes of a computer-based, bilingual smoking cessation decision-aid to facilitate utilization of resources.
Methods: A computer kiosk with a smoking cessation decision-aid was integrated at three safety-net clinics and two health fairs.
Purpose: To evaluate the accuracy of magnetic resonance (MR) imaging in the quantification of hepatic iron concentration.
Materials And Methods: Between April 1999 and June 2001, 112 patients were recruited prospectively. All had undergone liver biopsy and hepatic iron concentration quantification with spectrophotometry, followed by MR imaging.
