TL;DR: The GenOMICC (Genetics Of Mortality In Critical Care) genome-wide association study in 2244 critically ill Covid-19 patients from 208 UK intensive care units is reported, finding evidence in support of a causal link from low expression of IFNAR2, and high expression of TYK2, to life-threatening disease.

Screening Outcomes Following Implementation of Digital Breast Tomosynthesis in a General-Population Screening Program

TL;DR: The data support the clinical implementation of DBT in breast cancer screening; however, larger prospective trials are needed to validate the findings in specific patient subgroups.
Journal ArticleDOI

Breast cancer screening using tomosynthesis in combination with digital mammography compared to digital mammography alone: A cohort study within the PROSPR consortium

TL;DR: In this article, the authors used a logistic regression model to compare digital breast tomosynthesis (DBT) and digital mammography (DM) for breast cancer screening and found that DBT showed a statistically significant increase in cancer detection over DM (5.9 vs. 4.4 %, p < 0.0001) and no significant difference in false negative rates for DBT compared to DM.
Journal ArticleDOI

Coverage and uptake of systematic postal screening for genital Chlamydia trachomatis and prevalence of infection in the United Kingdom general population: cross sectional study.

TL;DR: Lower coverage of postal screening in areas with more non-white residents along with poorer uptake in more deprived areas and among women at higher risk of infection could mean that screening leads to wider inequalities in sexual health.
