Whole-genome sequencing of the 57 Ethiopian goats yielded 2.8 Gb of paired-end raw reads (420 Gb) with a length of 150 bp. On average, 233.96 (218.84–249.22) Mb of clean reads were obtained per population. More than 99.75% of the clean reads mapped against the ARS1 goat reference geno...
Multi-gene assays in early breast cancer are now routinely used in clinical practice and are integrated into national and international guidelines [9]. Parker and colleagues simplified the profiling algorithms using 50 genes for classification in one of the intrinsic subtypes: luminal A, luminal B,...
Scores were computed using a principal component analysis, which considers the number, and kinds of consumer goods they own, housing characteristics, and flooring materials.

Fertilizer and improved variety, either...
3.3. Breast Microbial Communities Differ by Breast Tumor IHC Types, PAM50 Intrinsic Subtypes, and Stage of Disease We next determined whether microbial composition and abundance were associated with breast tumor prognostic features, including by IHC group and PAM50-based intrinsic subtypes. The Shannon...
