Differences in Self-Reported Food Allergy and Food-Associated Anaphylaxis by Race and Ethnicity Among SAPPHIRE Cohort Participants.

Background: Although food allergies are considered common, relatively little is known about disparities in food allergy by race in the United States.

Objective: To evaluate differences in reported food allergy and food-associated anaphylaxis among individuals enrolled in a longitudinal cohort study from metropolitan Detroit, Michigan.

Methods: Participants in the Study of Asthma Phenotypes and Pharmacogenomic Interactions by Race-Ethnicity (SAPPHIRE) were asked about food allergies, including the inciting food and associated symptoms.

Adherence to Mediterranean Diet and Depressive Symptomatology Among Boston Area Puerto Ricans.

Background: Higher Mediterranean diet (MeD) adherence has been linked with lower depressive symptomatology, but research examining this association is limited, especially among Latinos, including mainland U.S. Puerto Ricans.

Predicting death from COVID-19 using pre-existing conditions: implications for vaccination triage.

Introduction: Global shortages in the supply of SARS-CoV-2 vaccines have resulted in campaigns to first inoculate individuals at highest risk for death from COVID-19. Here, we develop a predictive model of COVID-19-related death using longitudinal clinical data from patients in metropolitan Detroit.

Methods: All individuals included in the analysis had a laboratory-confirmed SARS-CoV-2 infection.

deficiency promotes lung cancer metastasis by activating Notch signaling in cancer-associated fibroblasts.

Lung adenocarcinoma, the most prevalent lung cancer subtype, is characterized by its high propensity to metastasize. Despite the importance of metastasis in lung cancer mortality, its underlying cellular and molecular mechanisms remain largely elusive. Here, we identified miRNAs as potent suppressors for lung adenocarcinoma metastasis.
