Acute ischemic stroke (AIS) stands as the leading cause of death and functional disability worldwide [1, 2]. More than 45.5% of deaths from stroke, and 71.7% of living ability lost because of stroke were in people younger than 75 years [2]. However, with the continuous development of cl...
The majority of research on sexual swellings has been on apes, macaques and baboons, and the only studies on mangabeys to date have been on captive populations (Aidaraet al.1981; Gust1994; Walkeret al.2004; Whitten and Russell1996). Here, we address this taxonomic imbalance by investigating...
ρ(R, Y) indicates the direction and magnitude of the selection bias: when ρ(R, Y) > 0, larger values of Y are more likely to be in the sample than in the population and vice versa. Where ρ(R, Y) = 0, this term cancels the others and there is no error. The second ...
First, when the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic happened, there is an ambiguity in containing the spread of this deadly virus. People started wearing masks to protect themselves against the airborne despite having a controversial decision. We can observe that this action in the first wave is...

Modelling the biokinetics of radionuclide excretion or retention is important in nuclear medicine and following accidental/malicious radioactivity releases. Sums of discrete exponential decay rates are often used, but we hypothesized that continuous prob

While gene transfer into the mitochondrial genomes has been inferred [36–39], mitochondrial genomes are expected to have undergone many fewer legitimate and illegitimate recombination events than free-living prokaryotes. Clearly, if probability mapping is to be considered a reliable approach, we expect...
Probabilistic thinking originated historically when people began to analyze the chances of success in gambling, and its mathematical foundations were laid down together with the development of statistics in the seventeenth century. Since the beginning of the twentieth century statistics has been an indispe...
There are several advantages to the use of parasites as bioindicators of environmental quality: 1) their communities are far less speciose than those of free-living, benthic organisms; 2) their taxonomy and life cycles are relatively well known; and 3) from a parasite point of view, each ...
