What is Variation?01:14

What is Variation?

18.4K
Apart from the measures of central tendency, distribution, outliers, and the changing characteristics of data with time, an important characteristic of any data set is its variation or spread. In some data sets, the data values are concentrated closely near the mean; in others, the data values are more widely spread out from the mean.
The range, standard deviation, standard error, and variance are the different measures of variation.
Range: The range is the difference between its maximum and...

Variation

An important characteristic of any set of data is the variation in the data. In some data sets, the data values are concentrated closely near the mean; in other data sets, the data values are more widely spread out from the mean. The most common measure of variation, or spread, is the standard deviation, which is the square root of variance.
When independent and dependent variables are plotted on a scatter plot, the slope of a line is a value that describes the rate of change between the two...

Sex-linked Disorders01:43

Sex-linked Disorders

108.6K
Like autosomes, sex chromosomes contain a variety of genes necessary for normal body function. When a mutation in one of these genes results in biological deficits, the disorder is considered sex-linked.

Conservative Site-specific Recombination and Phase Variation

6.8K
Because the DNA segments are cut and reorganized in a direction-specific manner, site-specific recombination has emerged as an efficient genetic engineering technique. Flippase and Cyclization recombinases or Flp and Cre, respectively, are two members of the tyrosine recombinase family derived from bacteriophages, that are used to mediate site-specific DNA insertions, deletions, and targeted expression of proteins in mammalian cell lines.
The recognition sites for Cre recombinase called LoxP...

Area of Science:

  • Medical and Social Sciences
  • Human Rights and Ethics

Background:

  • Variations of Sex Development (DSD) encompass diverse congenital conditions affecting chromosomal, gonadal, and phenotypic sex.
  • Societal binary gender classification causes distress for individuals with DSD and their families.
  • Historical medical practices, including early surgeries, aimed for unambiguous sex assignment but often failed to align with individuals' gender identity.

Framework:

  • A 2012 consensus process involved interdisciplinary German academics, clinicians, and advocacy/service-user groups.
  • Recommendations were developed through a structured consensus based on scientific literature and lived experiences.

Implementation:

  • 37 consensus recommendations were agreed upon, with the level of agreement indicated by percentages.
  • The consensus paper reflects a paradigm shift towards a more open view of gender.

Implications:

  • Aids in the diagnostics of newborns with DSD.
  • Supports parents and affected individuals in managing biological and social consequences of DSD.
  • Provides information on current trends in medical and surgical therapy for DSD.
