Elevated amyloid {beta} protein (A{beta}42) and late onset Alzheimer's disease are associated with single nucleotide polymorphisms in the urokinase-type plasminogen activator gene (2005)

Ertekin-Taner, Nilüfer, Ronald, James, Feuk, Lars, Prince, Jonathan, Tucker, Michael, Younkin, Linda, ...

Plasma amyloid β protein (Aβ42) levels and late onset Alzheimer's disease (LOAD) have been linked to the same region on chromosome 10q. The PLAU gene within this region encodes urokinase-type...

Positive outcome after preimplantation diagnosis of aneuploidy in human embryos (1999)

Munné, Santiago, Magli, Cristina, Cohen, Jacques, Morton, Paula, Sadowy, Sasha, Gianaroli, Luca, ...

Chromosomal abnormalities are responsible for a great deal of embryo wastage, which is reflected, at least partially, in decreased implantation and increased miscarriage in older women. To address...

Fertilization and early embryology: Preliminary experience with human oocyte cryopreservation using 1,2-propanediol and sucrose (1996)

Tucker, Michael, Wright, Graham, Morton, Paula, Shanguo, Li, Massey, Joe, Kort, Hilton

Feasibility of cryopreservalion of mature human oocytes using 1,2-propanediol and sucrose was studied initially utilizrng 1 and 2 day old unfertilized oocytes. Of these 285 aged oocytes 55%...

Non-disjunction in human sperm: results of fluorescence in situ hybridization studies using two and three probes (1993)

Williams, Briana J., Ballenger, Cynthia A., Malter, Henry E., Bishop, Felicia, Tucker, Michael, Zwingman, Theresa A., ...

Fluorescence In situ hybridization using two or three probes was utilized to estimate the Incidence of diploldy, the Incidence of disomy for the sex chromosomes and chromosomes 16 and 18, and the...

Post-operative artificial insemination - does it improve GIFT outcome? (1990)

Tucker, Michael, Wong, Collen J.Y., Chan, Yuen Mun, Leong, Milton K.H., Leung, Clement K.M.

Based on a retrospective study of our gamete intra-Fallopian transfer (GIFT) programme we have analysed 102 cycles where a standard GIFT procedure was implemented and 92 cycles where a post-operative...

Comparing Present Value Cost Differentials between Fixed- and Adjustable-Rate Loans: A Mortgage Simulation.

Tucker, Michael

When a borrower chooses between a fixed-rate and an adjustable-rate loan, he is doing so based on expectations of future interest rates and the expected life of the loan. This paper demonstrates how...

The Impact of Nondollar-Denominated Oil Pricing

Michael Tucker

OPEC has discussed replacing the dollar as the currency in which oil is priced. The impact of such a change on U.S. energy costs is explored using a simulation to reconstruct oil costs for the period...

Returns from Hay Cultivation in Fertilized Low Diversity and Non-Fertilized High Diversity Grassland

Felix Schläpfer, Michael Tucker, Irmi Seidl

Recent ecological experiments suggest that theinterannual stability of ecosystem productivitymay be determined by the diversity of organismspresent in the system. We investigate whethersuch effects...

Adjustable-Rate and Fixed-Rate Mortgage Choice: A Logit Analysis

Michael Tucker

Logit analysis is used to determine if financial variables are significant in determining borrower selection between fixed-rate and adjustable-rate mortgages. The results support the hypothesis that...
