Question: Question: Is low serum bilirubin concentration a predictor of chronic kidney disease?
Answer: Our study demonstrated that serum total bilirubin concentration could be a novel risk factor for the progression of CKD, defined as eGFR <60 ml/min/1.73 m(2), in the general population.

Answer: yes


Question: Question: Do gene expression and genetic analysis reveal diverse causes of recessive self-compatibility in Brassica napus L?
Answer: The recessive SC in eight accessions is caused by the loss of function of BnSCR-7 and BnSCR-6 in pollen. Translational repression contributes to the recessive SC in three accessions, whose SRK and SCR genes were expressed normally and had identical CDSs to BrS-29 or BoS-15. SI in 11 F1 hybrids relies on the expression of BnSCR-1300 rather than SRK genes. Other factor(s) independent of the S locus are involved in recessive SC. Therefore, diverse causes underlie recessive SC in B. napus, yielding insight into these complex mechanisms.

Answer: yes


Question: Question: Is expression of thymidine phosphorylase in peripheral blood cells of breast cancer patients increased by paclitaxel?
Answer: TP in peripheral mononuclear blood cells was hardly regulated under therapy with paclitaxel. Therefore, no increased haematotoxicity due to TP upregulation is expected from the combination of taxanes and capecitabine.

Answer:
no
