1. The Subtype Specificity of Genetic Loci Associated with Stroke in 16,664 cases and 32,792 controls: Using Bayesian multinomial regression in 16,664 stroke cases and 32,792 controls of European ancestry, investigators wanted to determine the most likely combination of stroke subtypes affected for loci with published genome-wide stroke associations. Of the 16 loci, seven influenced both ischemic and hemorrhagic stroke, an EDNRA locus demonstrated opposing effects on ischemic and hemorrhagic stroke. No loci were predicted to influence all stroke subtypes in the same direction.
2. Sensitivity to Affective Touch Depends on Adult Attachment Style: Higher scores on an attachment anxiety dimension (but not an attachment avoidance) were associated with reduced pleasantness discrimination between affective vs. non-affective, neutral touch.
3. The GRE Over the Entire Range of Scores Lacks Predictive Ability for PhD Outcomes in the Biomedical Sciences: GRE scores are often assumed to be predictive of student success in graduate school; however, authors found no association in admission data.
