How much an infant cries is largely steered by their genetics, and there is probably not much that parents can do about it.

Dealing with these decisions isn’t easy while undergoing cancer treatment. But yes, it’s completely understandable to ...

A new study has revealed compelling evidence that brain criticality—a dynamic balance between neural excitation and inhibition—has a strong genetic foundation and is associated with cognitive ...

We present a case of monozygotic twins who are discordant for breast cancer and chemotherapy exposure (ie, one twin contracted breast cancer and underwent chemotherapy, and the other had no breast ...

This is the largest genome-wide association study (GWAS) of identical twins to date. They identified several genetic factors that were linked with differences in environmental sensitivity within ...

Background and aims: Previous chromatographic analysis of colonic mucins from monozygotic twins with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) suggested a genetic mucin alteration in ulcerative colitis (UC).

One of the major challenges that the biometric detection system facing is how to distinguish between monozygotic or identical twins. However, the number of multiple births has been increasing over the ...

What Is New? The only previous microneurographic study of monozygotic twins found evidence of marked genetic determination of human muscle sympathetic nerve activity at rest. The present study ...

This study investigates how monozygotic (MZ) and dizygotic (DZ) twins process emotional experiences, concentrating on the influence of genetic and environmental factors. Monozygotic twins, who share ...

Discussion: This unique occurrence of imperforate hymen in a set of premature monozygotic twins and their mother suggests a plausible autosomal or X-linked dominant mode of inheritance. Given the role ...
