DNA methylation analysis based on supervised machine learning algorithms with static reference data, allowing diagnostic tumour typing with unprecedented precision, has quickly become a new standard of care. Whereas genome-wide diagnostic methylation profiling is mostly performed on microarrays, an increasing number of institutions additionally employ nanopore sequencing as a faster alternative. In addition, methylation-specific parallel sequencing can generate methylation and genomic copy number data.

Methods: Phase IV, multicenter, prospective, randomized open-label clinical trial. Patients were randomized into an immediate therapy arm (starting antiretroviral therapy (ART) within 7 days after initiation of OI treatment) versus a deferred arm (starting ART after completing the OI-therapy).

Depressive disorders in patients with coronary heart disease (CHD) are connected with negative effects on the course of the cardiac disease. Until today there has been no clear etiological model to explain the interaction of depressive disorders and cardiac risk parameters. Both, somatic and behavioural aspects seem to be important.
