Background: Early and accurate diagnosis of sepsis and the ensuing organ dysfunction remain a challenge in the postoperative setting. Susceptibility to infections, as well as the subsequent immunological response, are driven to some extent by the genetic predisposition of the patient. The purpose of this study was to identify novel genetic variants associated with postoperative sepsis (POS) and surgical site infections (SSIs).

Background: Total neoadjuvant treatment (TNT) for locally advanced rectal cancer (LARC) increases pathologic complete response (pCR) rate and reduces the risk of systemic recurrences over chemoradiotherapy (CRT) in randomised trials, e.g., the RAPIDO trial.

Context: About 30% of patients with active acromegaly experience paradoxically increased growth hormone (GH) secretion during the diagnostic oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT). Endogenous glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP) is implicated in this paradoxical secretion.
Objective: We used the GIP receptor (GIPR) antagonist GIP(3-30)NH2 to test the hypothesis that GIP mediates this paradoxical response when GIPR is abundantly expressed in somatotropinomas.

It has been proposed that poor semen quality may have its origins from fetal programming due to environmental factors. We investigated whether maternal coffee consumption during early pregnancy was associated with biomarkers of reproductive health in adult sons in the Fetal Programming of Semen Quality (FEPOS) cohort. In 2017-2019, 1058 young men provided a semen and blood sample and self-measured their testis volume.

Rapidly waning immunity against severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) requires continued global access to affordable vaccines. Globally, inactivated SARS-CoV-2 vaccines have been widely used during the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic. In this proof-of-concept study we adapted an original-D614G SARS-CoV-2 virus to Vero cell culture as a strategy to enhance inactivated vaccine manufacturing productivity.
