The frequency of thyrotoxicosis in peace and war time periods was compared in the same region with the same population. In one year peace and war time periods 54 and 87 cases of thyrotoxicosis were found, respectively, which indicates the increase for 62%.

We have developed a reliable protein selection strategy that combines magnetic activated cell sorting (MACS)-based screening of yeast surface display (YSD) libraries and functional ligand-binding identification by Tat-based recognition of associating proteins (FLI-TRAP) to isolate antigen-specific Nbs from synthetic libraries.
