   Mohd Anisul et al.

   Genetic integration of human protein abundance variation and COVID-19 susceptibility identifies proteins with potential causal roles in antiviral responses, coagulation, cytokine activation, and direct receptor interactions with SARS-CoV-2.

   Infection-exposure in infancy is associated with reduced allergy-related disease in later childhood in a Ugandan cohort

   Lawrence Lubyayi et al.

   In a Ugandan birth cohort, early childhood infection-exposure, notably to malaria, helminths, and diarrhoea, is associated with lower prevalence of atopy and allergy-related diseases in later childhood.
