MONDAY, Nov. 26 (HealthDay News) -- Genes specific to the X chromosome are among newly identified genes linked to rheumatoid arthritis and could help explain why women are more likely than men to develop the disease, researchers say.

Women have two X chromosomes while men have an X and a Y chromosome.

The X-chromosome-specific genes were among 14 newly identified genes in both women and men that can lead to rheumatoid arthritis, adding to the 32 genes previously pinpointed by the researchers at the Arthritis Research U.K. Epidemiology Unit at the University of Manchester and their colleagues.

It is believed that these 46 genes account for the vast majority of genes associated with rheumatoid arthritis. The research could lead to new treatments for the disease, according to the study published online recently in the journal Nature Genetics.

"This groundbreaking study brought together scientists from around the world and involved the use of DNA samples from more than 27,000 patients with rheumatoid arthritis and healthy controls," study lead author Jane Worthington, professor of chronic disease genetics at the University of Manchester, said in a university news release. "As a result of our findings, we now know that genetic variations at over 45 regions of the genome determine susceptibility to this form of arthritis."

Rheumatoid arthritis is different from osteoarthritis, the arthritis associated with aging and wear and tear. It frequently starts between the ages of 25 and 55, and causes inflammation in the joints, resulting in swelling, stiffness, pain and reduced joint function.

Lifestyle and environmental factors such as smoking, diet, pregnancy and infection are believed to play a role in rheumatoid arthritis, but a person's genes also influence their risk for the disease. The condition affects about 1 percent of the world's population.

"This work will have a great impact on the clinical treatment of arthritis; we have already found three genes that are targets for drugs, leaving a further 43 genes with the potential for drug development, helping the one-third of patients who fail to respond well to current medications," study first author Dr. Stephen Eyre said in the news release.

"This is the first time that a genetic association has been established between rheumatoid arthritis and the X chromosome," Alan Silman, medical director of Arthritis Research U.K., said in the release. "This could provide a useful clue in helping us to understand why rheumatoid arthritis is three times more likely to occur in women."

A five-year-long DNA study has concluded that legendary bigfoot is a human relative that arose about 15,000 years ago as a hybrid cross of modern Homo sapiens with an unknown primate species.

A Texas company calledDNA Diagnosticsannounced it has broken the genetic code with some supposed Sasquatch samples. [Read the company's press release]

Dr. Melba S. Ketchum of Nacogdoches, TX, a veterinarian who led the study,confirmed that her team has sequencedthree complete Sasquatch nuclear genomes and determined the species is a human hybrid.

Ketchum said the genome sequencing shows thatthe North American Sasquatch is a hybrid species, the result of males of an unknown hominin species crossing with female Homo sapiens.

"Further study is needed and is ongoing to better characterize and understand Sasquatch nuclear DNA," Ketchum said.

It's not immediatelyclear where the alleged bigfoot DNA came from. Further, the findings have yet to pass a peer review.

DNA study: Legendary bigfoot is no myth

When youre contemplating the vast expanse of glass covering any one of the current models of smartphones with supersized screens, you have to ask yourself: How big is too big? Is a 5-inch display that much better than a 4.5-incher? Does native 1080p capability actually matter on a smartphone? How big of an advantage does such a device earn?

Ladies and gentlemen, meet the HTC Droid DNA. Its massive 5-inch 1920 1080 display has the same resolution as the best HDTV sets lining the shelves at your local retailer. It sports a pixel density of 440 pixels per inch, which bests all the big-name competitors the Google Nexus 4 (320ppi), the HTC One X (316ppi) and 8X (341ppi), and the Apple iPhone 5 (326ppi).

While a 1080p screen is mighty pretty, its not a killer feature on a smartphone, and it does not make the device significantly better than the current crop of 720p-capable phones.

But while this looks great on paper, it doesnt matter much at all. Seriously. Dont get me wrong: The DNAs display is gorgeous, and arguably the best-looking smartphone display out there. But to the naked eye, and over a couple of weeks of daily use, it doesnt look significantly better than the phones mentioned above, and thats a good thing. The fact is, they all look great. On any one of them, pixels are indiscernible and text looks crisp and clean, rivaling a printed page. Colors are vivid and bright. Photos, video, apps, websites, magazines, every single thing displayed on screen is rendered beautifully.

The bottom line is that while a 1080p screen is mighty pretty, its not a killer feature on a smartphone, and it does not make the device significantly better than the current crop of 720p-capable phones. And this is a wonderful thing for consumers. Smartphone displays are better than they have ever been. Today, we expect top-tier phones to come with Retina-quality screens, and anything less is deemed unacceptable.

While the DNAs display looks stunning, the size of the thing makes it difficult to use the phone with one hand. While it isnt as audaciously oversized as the 5.5-inch-display on the Samsung Galaxy Note II, the DNAs touchscreen can still be a bit of a hassle. The slightly smaller 4.7-inch displays on the Nexus 4 and One X are far more comfortable. Even the 4.8-inch display on the popular Samsung Galaxy S III is easier to use with a single hand and 4.8 inches is about the largest smartphone display that Ive been able to comfortably operate thus far. Its here that the DNAs display doesnt make it more useful, but counts against it.

Another sticking point is the paltry battery life. In over a week of testing the handset, I wasnt able to make it through an 8-hour workday without having to charge up the 2020 mAh Lithium-ion cell before I headed home. On the weekend, while running errands and using Google Maps, Yelp, Twitter and the camera throughout the day, battery life flew by and I found myself stopping to charge up by midday, and again in the evening. If you buy the DNA, youll want to pick up a spare charger to go with it.

Each time I had to charge up, I was greeted by an annoying little plastic door covering the USB port on the bottom of the DNA. When this tiny door is closed, the DNA looks sleek and smooth. But opening the door reveals a flimsy piece of plastic that feels like its hanging on for dear life. It feels like its only a matter of time before that little door breaks off. While everything else on the DNA feels lovingly designed and well built, this door is a weak point. HTC should have just left the port exposed, as most phones do nowadays.

Review: HTC Droid DNA

The lawyer for the man accused of killing Daniel Morcombe says there is so much material to sift through a trial would take months rather than weeks.

On the third day of the committal hearing for accused murderer Brett Peter Cowan, forensic experts gave evidence on human remains believed to be those of Daniel.

Outside the Brisbane Magistrates Court, Cowan's defence lawyer Michael Bosscher said if the matter reached trial it would likely run for months.

"To say it was a massive task would be a significant understatement," he told reporters.

"There's a huge brief of evidence.

"The material examined in this committal proceeding would represent less than one per cent of all material which has been obtained."

Much of Mr Bosscher's cross examination so far has centred on what precautions expert witnesses took when examining the remains.

"The type of DNA evidence that they've obtained in this particular matter is much, much more susceptible to potential contamination.

"That doesn't mean that there has been, but it's an area that has to be examined."

Daniel's parents Bruce and Denise say they're taking each day of the hearing as it comes.
