Which type of lung cancer is the most strongly associated with Lambert-Eaton syndrome? | Small-cell lung cancer is most commonly associated with Lambert-Eaton syndrome. Case reports suggest that other non-small-cell lung cancer types, such as large-cell neuroendocrine carcinoma and squamous cell carcinoma, can be also very rarely associated this syndrome. | [20979723, 19803409, 20392978, 18644631, 15767964, 9094058, 16100656, 18841652, 15793845, 10486838, 8387255, 9254841, 8009147, 8186692, 17395141, 15000529, 3016531, 9484375, 7731034, 1448671, 8568672, 18506722, 9538660, 18032743, 12632823, 1318636, 1470196, 20514935, 1339000, 2189179, 2833535] | 293 |
What distinguishes lantibiotics from antibiotics? | Lantibiotic compounds are ribosomally synthesized antimicrobial peptides against which bacteria are not able to produce resistance, hence making them a good alternative to antibiotics. It is interesting that low levels of resistance have been reported for lantibiotics compared with commercial antibiotics. Given that th... | [8264800, 24210177, 19009315, 24069959, 21470152, 25787977, 23475977, 21905643, 19393544, 1482192, 23168402, 11945173, 12361237, 24621781, 15044440] | 294 |
List three major features of the CCFDN syndrome. | Congenital cataracts, facial dysmorphism and peripheral neuropathy are three major features of the CCFDN syndrome. Other described signs and symptoms of the CCFDN syndrome include microcornea, microphthalmos, micropupil, floppy eyelid syndrome, pseudoptosis, nystagmus, congenital esotropia, impairment of distant visual... | [16939648, 11805249, 17195938, 17578274, 15234148, 14517542, 14512967, 25186864, 19070320, 10439962, 10442556, 10360766] | 295 |
is intense physical activity associated with longevity ? | Several survival studies showed that professional athletes has higher longevity than general population. These epidemiological data matches the evidences that long-term endurance training induces in elderly subjects an increased HRV and a higher exercise working capacity, which are well-established predictors of cardio... | [22332442, 21435018, 16355084, 12832429, 17436206, 21925040, 21618162, 14662259, 21477204, 19575156, 22413946, 23450998, 23241272, 2279154, 12919770, 23241269, 17036189, 23300766] | 296 |
Are cyclophilins proteins that bind to prolines? | Cyclophilins are ubiquitously expressed proteins that bind to prolines. | [24831536, 12358793, 18823995, 25967372] | 297 |
Can a given genotype exhibit opposite fitness effects (beneficial and detrimental) within the same environment? | A given genotype can be either beneficial or detrimental, even deleterious, depending on the environment in which an organism lives. This is known as antagonistic pleiotropy. Antagonistic pleiotropy can operate even within the same environment. For example, in Escherichia coli, certain mutations can exhibit beneficial,... | [15454545, 23169561, 19226414] | 298 |
