Defining the molecular features of radiation-induced glioma: A systematic review and meta-analysis

Cranial radiation therapy is essential in treating many pediatric cancers, especially brain tumors; however, its use comes with the risk of developing second malignancies. Cranial radiation-induced gliomas (RIGs) are aggressive high-grade tumors with a dismal prognosis, for which no standard therapy exists. A definitive molecular signature for RIGs has not yet been established. We sought to address this gap by performing a systematic review and meta-analysis of the molecular features of cranial RIGs.

Indirect effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on malaria intervention coverage, morbidity, and mortality in Africa: a geospatial modelling analysis

Substantial progress has been made in reducing the burden of malaria in Africa since 2000, but those gains could be jeopardised if the COVID-19 pandemic affects the availability of key malaria control interventions. The aim of this study was to evaluate plausible effects on malaria incidence and mortality under different levels of disruption to malaria control.

A blueprint for a multi-disease, multi-domain Bayesian adaptive platform trial incorporating adult and paediatric subgroups: the Staphylococcus aureus Network Adaptive Platform trial

The Staphylococcus aureus Network Adaptive Platform (SNAP) trial is a multifactorial Bayesian adaptive platform trial that aims to improve the way that S. aureus bloodstream infection, a globally common and severe infectious disease, is treated. In a world first, the SNAP trial will simultaneously investigate the effects of multiple intervention modalities within multiple groups of participants with different forms of S. aureus bloodstream infection.

The importance of the exposome and allostatic load in the planetary health paradigm

The concept of planetary health emphasizes that human health is intricately connected to the health of natural systems within the Earth's biosphere

Research

Metabolic and Psychological Impact of a Pragmatic Exercise Intervention Program in Adolescent and Young Adult Survivors of Pediatric Cancer-Related Cerebral Insult

Adolescent and young adult survivors of childhood brain tumors and cranial irradiation should be screened for metabolic and psychological well-being

Research

Association of Genetic and Environmental Factors with Autism in a 5-Country Cohort

Based on population data from 5 countries, the heritability of ASD was estimated to be approximately 80%

Research

Determinants for progression from asymptomatic infection to symptomatic visceral leishmaniasis: A cohort study

We confirmed the strong association between high DAT and/or rK39 titers and progression to disease among asymptomatic subjects

Research

A reference collection of patient-derived cell line and xenograft models of proneural, classical and mesenchymal glioblastoma

We present a curated panel of 12 readily-usable, cell lines representing the spectrum of molecular subtypes of IDH-wildtype glioblastoma
