Most MRI-based myelin biomarkers are not statistically different regarding their relationship with histology.

Using unique data from five longitudinal UK birth cohorts, four distinct subsets of genetic variants were identified as differentially associated across wheezing phenotypes from infancy to adolescence with little evidence of genetic associations spanning across different phenotypes.

A twofold increased risk of adverse outcomes (mortality, ICU admission, and severity of COVID-19) has been demonstrated in unvaccinated COVID-19 patients with cancer compared to COVID-19 patients without cancer.

A comprehensive meta-analysis of the neuroimaging literature reveals that the lateral prefrontal cortex of humans is mainly organized along its rostrocaudal axis according to a unimodal-to-transmodal pattern of network connectivity and a concrete-to-abstract axis of functional associations.

Animal studies of fatty liver disease over-estimate the benefit of drugs due to publication bias and are confounded by off-target weight loss, illustrating the challenge of successful translational across species.

Full-text analysis of the human brain-imaging literature can predict the spatial distribution of observations in the brain given the description of a subject of study.

Patients with Type 2 diabetes show patterns of neurodegeneration consistent with accelerated brain aging, including impaired cognition and loss of brain volume, which are more severe in those with increased disease duration.

A systematic review and meta-analysis show that calcium supplementation significantly improves bone mass, implying that preventive calcium supplementation in young people (age ≤35 years) may be a shift in the window of intervention for osteoporosis.
