National identity predicts public health support during a global pandemic

Understanding collective behaviour is an important aspect of managing the pandemic response. Here the authors show in a large global study that participants that reported identifying more strongly with their nation reported greater engagement in public health behaviours and support for public health policies in the context of the pandemic.

A saturated map of common genetic variants associated with human height

A large genome-wide association study of more than 5 million individuals reveals that 12,111 single-nucleotide polymorphisms account for nearly all the heritability of height attributable to common genetic variants.

Genomic evidence supports a clonal diaspora model for metastases of esophageal adenocarcinoma

Whole-genome sequencing and phylogenetic analysis of nearly 400 esophageal adenocarcinoma samples suggest a model of rapid subclone spreading from the primary tumor to multiple metastatic sites, which the authors term ‘clonal diaspora’.

Protein-altering variants associated with body mass index implicate pathways that control energy intake and expenditure in obesity

Exome-wide analysis identifies rare and low-frequency coding variants associated with body mass index. Gene-based meta-analysis and functional studies implicate 13 genes, eight of which are novel, and neuronal pathways as factors in human obesity.

A renewed model of pancreatic cancer evolution based on genomic rearrangement patterns

Pancreatic cancer is not caused by a specific series of genetic alterations that occur sequentially but by one, or few, catastrophic events that result in simultaneous oncogenic genetic rearrangements, giving rise to highly aggressive tumours.

Will the COVID-19 pandemic worsen the obesity epidemic?

The sudden outbreak and global spread of COVID-19 represents one of the most profound societal and public health challenges in modern times. In this Comment, we call attention to the possibility that the societal strategies implemented to oppose COVID-19 might have long-term, negative effects on the obesity epidemic.

A register-based cohort study on the effectiveness and Safety of anti-PCSK9 treatment in persons with hyperlipidemia

Andersen et al. evaluate the effectiveness and safety of PCSK9 inhibitors, alirocumab, and evolocumab, in a register-based cohort of 907 individuals with dyslipidemia. Their findings show a 49% reduction in LDL-C levels and no significant changes in clinical outcomes following a mandated switch from alirocumab to evolocumab.

Epidemic modelling of monitoring public behavior using surveys during pandemic-induced lockdowns

Koher et al. use Bayesian analysis to evaluate the usefulness of survey responses compared to mobility data as a tool to monitor the effects of lockdown as a disease mitigation strategy. Self-reported contacts during lockdown better predict future hospitalizations than mobility data.
