The COVID-19 pandemic had a major impact on mental health across populations, especially young and precarious people. Furthermore, COVID-19 diagnosis itself has been associated with psychiatric symptoms. However, only a few studies have assessed the mental health of precarious youth, and examined a possible association with food insecurity, while including COVID-19 diagnosis in their analyses.

Methods And Results: Our results first reveal that Fgf10 levels are up-regulated in the injured ventricle after MI.
Thoracic malignancies are the main cause of cancer-related deaths worldwide. The need to develop new therapies is therefore urgent. The recognition of new potential therapeutic targets in thoracic malignancies has prompted the development of a number of antibody-drug conjugates.

Cardiac diseases, characterized by cardiomyocyte loss, lead to dramatic impairment of cardiac function and ultimately to congestive heart failure. Despite significant advances, conventional treatments do not correct the defects in cardiac muscle cell numbers and the prognosis of congestive heart failure remains poor. The existence, in adult mammalian heart, of low but detectable cardiomyocyte proliferative capacities has shifted the target of regenerative therapy toward new therapeutical strategy.
