Association between genetically proxied PCSK9 inhibition and prostate cancer risk: A Mendelian randomisation study. by Si Fang, James Yarmolinsky, Dipender Gill, Caroline J Bull, Claire M Perks, PRACTICAL Consortium, George Davey Smith, Tom R Gaunt, Tom G Richardson

“…Colocalization analyses identified strong evidence (posterior probability (PPA) = 81.3%) of a shared genetic variant (rs553741) between liver-derived PCSK9 expression and PrCa risk, whereas weak evidence was found for HMGCR (PPA = 0.33%) and NPC1L1 expression (PPA = 0.38%). …”

Phylogenetics of four sections of genus Dendrobium sw. (Orchidaceae) in Peninsular Malaysia by Moudi, Maryam

“…Individual and combined analysis of the five gene regions (rbcL, matK, trnL-F, nrITS and Xdh) supported the monophyletic status (Boot strap Replicate and Posterior Probability more than 90%) of four sections (Aporum, Crumenata, Strongyle and Bolbidium) compared to the other three sections (Dendrobium, Callista and Latouria). …”
