Mediterranean diet may benefit health in part by incorporating moderate wine consumption

Many public health warnings have been issued against alcohol consumption, even in small quantities, though the evidence for such strict limits is controversial. The current study, published in the MDPI journal Nutrients, is a narrative review focused on clearing up some of the confusion associated with alcoholic drinks.

Cardiac MRI of individuals with acute or post-acute COVID-19

In a recent study published in the Journal of Clinical Ultrasound, researchers in Italy reported cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) findings in individuals with myocarditis-like syndrome during the acute phase of SARS-CoV-2 infection (AMCovS) and post-acute phase (cPACS).

Researchers discover new role of small RNAs in Salmonella infections

Salmonella are food-borne pathogens that infect millions of people a year. To do so, these bacteria depend on a complex network of genes and gene products that allow them to sense environmental conditions.

Researchers identify novel gene mechanism in most aggressive kidney cancers

In a new study from the Johns Hopkins Kimmel Cancer Center, researchers described a novel mechanism of tumor formation in kidney cancers driven by overexpression of the mechanistic target of rapamycin complex 1 (mTORC1) signaling pathway with loss of the tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC) tumor suppressor gene.

Longitudinal seroprevalence study among pregnant people indicates waning of immunity from natural SARS-CoV-2 infections

Researchers evaluated the seroprevalence and durability of antibodies against SARS-CoV-2 nucleocapsid protein among pregnant individuals and investigated transplacental antibody transfer.

Effects of hybrid immunity on humoral immune response following COVID mRNA vaccination in a cohort of essential and frontline workers

Researchers longitudinally evaluated humoral immune responses to the second and third doses of COVID-19 mRNA vaccines among individuals with and without prior history of SARS-CoV-2 infections.

Study reveals protective role of CRTC1 in stopping people from overeating high-calorie foods

High-calorie foods - high in fat, oil, and sugar - can taste good but often cause overeating, leading to obesity and major health problems. But what stimulates the brain to cause overeating?

High efficacy of SARS-CoV-2 vaccines in preventing COVID-19 deaths in children and adolescents

A new study evaluated the effectiveness of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) vaccines in Argentinian children when severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) Delta and Omicron were predominant.

Researchers identify a new pathogenic mechanism for diabetes onset in MODY3

In order to treat patients with diabetes in the best possible way it is necessary to understand the disease mechanism. MODY type 3 (MODY3) is a monogenic hereditary form of diabetes, that is caused by a genetic defect in the HNF1A gene.

New methods can advance the development of rapid diagnostics for many infectious diseases

Two companion studies report new artificial intelligence approaches for identification of molecular "fingerprints" for specific infections. The methods, used here to derive a fingerprint for COVID-19, can advance the development of rapid diagnostics for many infectious diseases.
