Article Synopsis
- * Researchers analyzed data from 52 studies, including nearly 31,000 CRC cases and over 41,000 controls, to explore the genetic interactions with regular aspirin/NSAID use.
- * They found significant interactions with genetic variants in two specific regions (6q24.1 and 5p13.1), which could help uncover new targets for understanding how aspirin provides its protective effects against colorectal cancer.
Article Synopsis
- This study explores how genetics and body mass index (BMI) interact to influence colorectal cancer risk, analyzing data from over 84,000 participants.
- The research identifies a significant genetic marker (rs58349661) in the FMN1/GREM1 gene region that shows a strong connection with increased cancer risk in individuals with higher BMI, particularly among those with a specific genotype.
- Findings suggest that understanding this gene-environment interaction could help develop more tailored prevention strategies for colorectal cancer related to obesity.
We describe a regularized regression model for the selection of gene-environment (G×E) interactions. The model focuses on a single environmental exposure and induces a main-effect-before-interaction hierarchical structure. We propose an efficient fitting algorithm and screening rules that can discard large numbers of irrelevant predictors with high accuracy.

The durability of immune responses after COVID-19 vaccination will drive long-term vaccine effectiveness across settings and may differ by vaccine type. To determine durability of protection of COVID-19 vaccines (BNT162b2, mRNA-1273, and Ad26.COV2.

- - The study investigates the genetic and environmental interactions influencing colorectal cancer risk, focusing on the J-shaped relationship with alcohol consumption, distinguishing between nondrinkers, light-to-moderate drinkers, and heavy drinkers.
- - By pooling data from major cancer registries, the researchers identified 13 significant SNPs in the 10q24.2/COX15 region, showing that the A allele of SNP rs2300985 increases colorectal cancer risk for light-to-moderate drinkers compared to nondrinkers and heavy drinkers.
- - The findings suggest that the strongest genetic association with colorectal cancer occurs in nondrinkers, with SNP rs1318920 predicted as a potential causal regulatory variant impacting cancer risk.

November 2000
The medico-demographic situation in Voronezh, characterized by a decrease in the birth rate, a rise in the mortality rate, the prevalence of pensioners (38%) in the structure of the population, is presented. The negative influence of the deterioration of socio-economic conditions on the social health of the population, especially on the situation with drug addiction, is pointed out. The extent of the misuse of narcotic and toxic substances among adolescents essentially increased.

On the basis of answers to questionnaires more active use of local TV channels for educational work in the dissemination of knowledge on the prophylaxis of HIV infection is recommended. It is advisable to enlist the cooperation of school psychologists in the work on the social adaptation of adolescents with a view to make them resistant to negative influences affecting their life and health.

Long-term results (up to 25 years) in 624 patients with acute cholecystitis discharged from the hospital without operation were found to be unsatisfactory in 68,4% of cases: 54,1% needed an operative treatment, 14,3% were operated upon. Mortality from complications after cholecystitis among non-operated patients in the remote period was 3,4%. Better results of treatment may be obtained by increased surgical activity and higher quality of prophylactic medical examination of patients with cholecystitis.
