Overaeration lungs: Hyperaeration means lungs contain larger amount of air than normally expected. Has many causes. In children can be seen with diseases causing air trapping such as bronchiolitis, asthma, cystic fibrosis, congenital heart disease, early aspiration, and metabolic acidosis.
Barbara McClintock's World Discovering Jumping Genes For the first half of the 20th century, genes were seen as objects with fixed positions on the chromosomes. However, in the 1950s, Barbara McClintock showed that certain DNA fragments, termed transposons, can be activated to jump from one position on a chromosome to another.
In patients with hereditary hemochromatosis, Feder et al. (1996) identified 2 mutations in the HFE gene (C282Y; 613609.0001 and 613609.0002). The C282Y mutation was detected in 85% of all HFE chromosomes, indicating that in their population 83% of hemochromatosis cases are related to C282Y homozygosity.
