TL;DR: Factors associated with SI over a 12-month period in a rural cohort, after controlling for known risk factors for SI, low availability of social support at baseline was associated with greater likelihood of SI at 12- month follow-up.

TL;DR: The authors identify 19 novel genetic loci associated with CCT, a subset of which is involved in rare corneal or connective tissue disorders, and implicate candidate genes acting in collagen and extracellular matrix regulation.

TL;DR: The findings show that common OPRM1 intron 1 SNPs have replicable associations with heroin addiction, and the haplotype structure of rs3778150 and nearby SNPs may underlie the inconsistent associations between rs1799971 and heroin addiction.

TL;DR: A systematic review of studies on pneumococcal polysaccharide vaccine (PPV) and cardiovascular outcomes was conducted in this article, showing that the use of PPV was associated with a significantly lower risk of acute coronary syndrome (ACS) events in the older population, but not stroke.

TL;DR: In this article , a cross-ancestry GWAS meta-analyses of 110,182 patients who have had a stroke (five ancestries, 33% non-European) and 1,503,898 control individuals, identify association signals for stroke and its subtypes at 89 (61 new) independent loci: 60 in primary inverse-variance-weighted analyses and 29 in secondary meta-regression and multitrait analyses.
