UnknownTwo Randomized Trials of Neutralizing Antibodies to Prevent HIV-1 Acquisition.

Background

Whether a broadly neutralizing antibody (bnAb) can be used to prevent human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) acquisition is unclear.

Methods

We enrolled at-risk cisgender men and transgender persons in the Americas and Europe in the HVTN 704/HPTN 085 trial and at-risk ...

UnknownWhole genome sequence analysis of blood lipid levels in >66,000 individuals.
Blood lipids are heritable modifiable causal factors for coronary artery disease. Despite well-described monogenic and polygenic bases of dyslipidemia, limitations remain in discovery of lipid-associated alleles using whole genome sequencing (WGS), partly due to limited sample sizes, ancestral diver...

UnknownThrombectomy for Stroke With Large Infarct on Noncontrast CT: The TESLA Randomized Clinical Trial.

Importance

Recent large infarct thrombectomy trials used heterogeneous imaging modalities and time windows for patient selection. Noncontrast computed tomographic (CT) scan is the most common stroke imaging approach. It remains uncertain whether thrombectomy is effective for patients with la...

UnknownWhole genome sequence analysis of low-density lipoprotein cholesterol across 246 K individuals.

Background

Rare genetic variation provided by whole genome sequence datasets has been relatively less explored for its contributions to human traits. Meta-analysis of sequencing data offers advantages by integrating larger sample sizes from diverse cohorts, thereby increasing the likelihood ...

UnknownLarge-Scale Gene-Smoking Interactions and Fine Mapping Study Identifies Multiple Novel Blood Pressure Loci in over 1 Million Individuals.
Cigarette smoking influences blood pressure (BP) levels. Studying and accounting for potential gene-smoking interactions can help discover novel loci and provide insights into biological pathways for smoking-associated BP regulation. We conducted a genome-wide association meta-analysis involving 1,1...

UnknownOlfactory Dysfunction After SARS-CoV-2 Infection in the RECOVER Adult Cohort.

Importance

Olfactory dysfunction is common after SARS-CoV-2 infection and has been associated with cognitive loss in other conditions. Formal testing is needed to characterize the presence, severity, and patterns of olfactory dysfunction.

Objective

To characterize long-term olfactory ...

UnknownDifferentiation of Prior SARS-CoV-2 Infection and Postacute Sequelae by Standard Clinical Laboratory Measurements in the RECOVER Cohort.

Background

There are currently no validated clinical biomarkers of postacute sequelae of SARS-CoV-2 infection (PASC).

Objective

To investigate clinical laboratory markers of SARS-CoV-2 and PASC.

Design

Propensity score-weighted linear regression models were fitted to evaluate d...

UnknownMeasurement of circulating viral antigens post-SARS-CoV-2 infection in a multicohort study.

Objectives

To determine the proportion of individuals with detectable antigen in plasma or serum after SARS-CoV-2 infection and the association of antigen detection with postacute sequelae of COVID-19 (PASC) symptoms.

Methods

Plasma and serum samples were collected from adults partici...

UnknownSex Differences in Long COVID.

Importance

A substantial number of individuals worldwide experience long COVID, or post-COVID condition. Other postviral and autoimmune conditions have a female predominance, but whether the same is true for long COVID, especially within different subgroups, is uncertain.

Objective

To...

UnknownDe novo mutations across 1,465 diverse genomes reveal mutational insights and reductions in the Amish founder population.
De novo mutations (DNMs), or mutations that appear in an individual despite not being seen in their parents, are an important source of genetic variation whose impact is relevant to studies of human evolution, genetics, and disease. Utilizing high-coverage whole-genome sequencing data as part of the...
