Neurophysiological studies in cats and monkeys have found that tactile receptive fields are generally oval-shaped, rather than circular, with the long-axis of the RF parallel to the long axis of the limb at several places in the nervous system, including peripheral nerves (Burgess et al., 1968...
Explained variance attributable to PGS was calculated as the increase in Nagelkerke’s pseudo-R2 between a linear model with and without the PGS variable. P-values were obtained from the binomial logistic regression of SCZ phenotype on PGS, accounting for Linkage Disequilibrium (LD) and including ...
while others favor a polygenic model with up to 11,000 common causative variants [126]. Consequently, it is reasonable to consider prudently that new loci have yet to be identified

We also found that child characteristics, particularly children’s sex and their propensity to talk during play, were associated with their engagement in the two forms of play, and explained the associations in engagement between play contexts. These findings are discussed in terms of the features ...

We used Steiger filtering to evaluate the direction of causation between Alzheimer’s disease and the phenotypes identified in the PheWAS10. We found little evidence that SNPs explained more variance in the outcome than the exposure for most results reported in the two-sample MR section (Supplementa...

A method to evaluate the performance of a diagnostic test for a binary outcome that plots the sensitivit...
