Coral poleward range expansions have recently been observed in response to warming
oceans. Range expansion can lead to reduced genetic diversity and increased frequency of …

We have identified 12 patients with autosomal recessive mitochondrial encephalomyopathy
with elevated methylmalonic acid. The disorder has a high incidence of 1 in 1700 in the …

Background Primary carnitine deficiency (PCD) is an autosomal recessive disorder of fatty
acid oxidation and has been associated to episodes of sudden death in the Faroe Islands …

In 2012, the Norwegian newborn screening program (NBS) was expanded (eNBS) from
screening for two diseases to that for 23 diseases (20 inborn errors of metabolism, IEMs) …

The number of genes associated with autism is increasing, but few studies have been
performed on epidemiological cohorts and in isolated populations. Here, we investigated …

METHODS Patients In order to generate a database that was as comprehensive as possible,
we data-mined the NCBI Entrez Pubmed15 and Med Miner repository16 and retrieved all …

The dramatic variation of cichlid fish colour pattern is thought to function in mate choice,
evolve by sexual selection, and contribute to explosive speciation. Here, we combine …

Abstract The Faroe Islands in the North Atlantic Ocean are inhabited by a small population,
whose origin is thought to date back to the Viking Age. Historical, archaeological and …

Primary carnitine deficiency (PCD) affects fatty acid oxidation and is associated with
cardiomyopathy and cardiac arrhythmia, but the risk of sudden death in PCD is unknown …

The involvement of genetic factors in the etiology of autism has been clearly established. We
undertook a genome-wide search for regions containing susceptibility genes for autism in 12 …
