"Распределенный мозг" популяции

О, уже русская википедия в ход пошла, как непререкаемый авторитет. Падает уровень морали, падает. Чтобы было интересно, приведу один забавный abstract.

We have investigated sex ratio at birth (expressed as the proportion of males) in Croatia before, during and after the war (1991–1995). Data for each of 21 counties in Croatia (861 516 births) were collected and pooled into two groups: the first, consisting of the counties unaffected by the war, and the second, comprising the counties affected by war events. Odds ratios of being born as a male were calculated, with being born in a county exposed to war defined as the risk factor. No significant deviations from the expected ratio of 0.514 were found in pre-war, wartime or post-war period at the national level. The ratio was 0.515 during the pre-war and wartime periods, and 0.514 in the post-war period. Comparison of the ratios in the three periods in both affected and unaffected counties revealed no significant increase in the sex ratio. The only significant increase in the sex ratio was registered in two counties unaffected by the warfare.

Вот это действительно забавно. Воюют одни, а соотношение полов меняется у других.
