UnknownEvolving Epidemiological Characteristics of COVID-19 in Hong Kong From January to August 2020: Retrospective Study.

Background

COVID-19 has plagued the globe, with multiple SARS-CoV-2 clusters hinting at its evolving epidemiology. Since the disease course is governed by important epidemiological parameters, including containment delays (time between symptom onset and mandatory isolation) and serial interv...

TranscriptomicsRNA-seq (Illumina and PacBio) of hESC
We used PacBio data to identify more reliable transcripts from hESC, based on which we can estimate gene/transcript abundance better from Illumina data. PacBio long reads and Illumina short reads were generated from the same hESC cell line H1. PacBio reads were error-corrected by Illumina reads to i...

UnknownPrevalence, age-of-onset, and course of mental disorders among 72,288 first-year university students from 18 countries in the World Mental Health International College Student (WMH-ICS) initiative.

Background

The college years are a developmentally sensitive period for mental disorder onset. Reliable epidemiological data are critical for informing public health responses. This study aimed to estimate prevalence and socio-demographic distributions of common DSM-5 mental disorders among ...

UnknownThe genetic architecture of the human cerebral cortex.
The cerebral cortex underlies our complex cognitive capabilities, yet little is known about the specific genetic loci that influence human cortical structure. To identify genetic variants that affect cortical structure, we conducted a genome-wide association meta-analysis of brain magnetic resonance...

UnknownEffects of Once-Weekly Exenatide on Cardiovascular Outcomes in Type 2 Diabetes.

Background

The cardiovascular effects of adding once-weekly treatment with exenatide to usual care in patients with type 2 diabetes are unknown.

Methods

We randomly assigned patients with type 2 diabetes, with or without previous cardiovascular disease, to receive subcutaneous injecti...

UnknownCommon genetic variants influence human subcortical brain structures.
The highly complex structure of the human brain is strongly shaped by genetic influences. Subcortical brain regions form circuits with cortical areas to coordinate movement, learning, memory and motivation, and altered circuits can lead to abnormal behaviour and disease. To investigate how common ge...
