A mathematical model of osteoporosis explains why the sequence of osteoporosis medications matters for short-term and long-term treatment success.

Sequence-variant analogs of mitochondria-targeted tetrapeptides have distinct patterns of membrane-bound conformations, effects on membrane properties, and abilities to protect mitochondria subject to stress, illuminating how side chain variation can be leveraged in the development of more effective therapeutic compounds.

Multiple -omics approaches have provided valuable insight into the pathobiology of pediatric acute respiratory distress syndrome, and novel unbiased techniques hold promise for future discoveries.

State-of-the-art knowledge of microscopic colitis, a disease often more prevalent than ulcerative colitis and Crohn’s disease among elderly people, is provided from a global perspective with the overall aim to create better awareness and improve rational management.

SARS-CoV-2 experienced ocrelizumab-treated MS patients benefit from SARS-CoV-2 mRNA vaccination by inducing broadprotective CD8+ T-cells, whereas methotrexate-treated RA patients induce delayed but strong antibody responses, which support vaccine strategies for these patient groups.

Nosocomial transmission of SARS-Cov-2 in geriatric settings is complex, with different patterns between patients and healthcare workers working in Covid/non-Covid wards that should be taken into account when designing infection control strategies.

Historical analysis of nearly half-a-million articles from the Journal of the American Medical Association and the New England Journal of Medicine since their inception frames the shifting scientific, material, ethical, and epistemic underpinnings of medicine over time, including today.

Pathogenic activating mutations in PIK3CA or NRAS were the most common genetic findings in a lymphatic malformation patient cohort and an N-of-1 trial of the PI3Kα inhibitor alpelisib in a patient with a PIK3CA mutation confirmed these findings are actionable.

The abundance of mosaic variants detected directly in sperm accurately predicts their transmission to concepti.

The uncertainties of the pandemic and the restrictions on social life have a strong impact on mental well-being, and especially on the expression of schizotypal traits, which are further boosted by excessive media consumption.
