Reading projects
"By reading only six hours a day", says Marianne Dashwood, outlining her plan of future application to her sister Elinor in Sense and Sensibility, "I shall gain in the course of a twelve-month a great deal of instruction which I now feel myself to want." She adds: "Our own library is too well known to me, to be resorted to for any thing beyond mere amusement. But there are many works well worth reading at the Park; and there are others of more modern production which I know I can borrow of Colonel Brandon" (301). We know, to some extent, what was in the Dashwoods' own library – volumes of Cowper, Scott and Thomson are mentioned. But what might Marianne have borrowed at Barton Park and Delaford? Which publications would Colonel Brandon have considered most appropriate for her project of self-improvement? Elinor considers Marianne's plan excessive, but what would have been a more realistic amount of time for her to spend reading each day, and where might she have done it
Additional file 2: Figure S2. of Methylome analysis for spina bifida shows SOX18 hypomethylation as a risk factor with evidence for a complex (epi)genetic interplay to affect neural tube development
Heatmap showing methylation of genes involved in the folate and one carbon metabolism in MMC patients. Methylation values of the genes are extracted from data obtained with the HM450k. Green and red represent 0 and 1 methylation, respectively. MMC: myelomeningocele. (TIF 12951 kb
Additional file 3: Figure S3. of Methylome analysis for spina bifida shows SOX18 hypomethylation as a risk factor with evidence for a complex (epi)genetic interplay to affect neural tube development
Mean methylation of SOX18 for MMC patients and controls according to MTHFR 677 C>T genotype by Sequenom EpiTYPER. Boxplot representing the methylation pattern of MMC patients and controls divided according to MTHFR 677 C>T genotype with box = 25th and 75th percentiles; bars = min and max values. The mean methylation level of each group is shown above the plot. (TIFF 337 kb
