Behind Paper：
The epidermal CD1c+CD11b+ cDC2s poised in the psoriasis perilesional skin, prepare the tissue and initiate inflammation，co-work with CD207+CD11chi LCs and CD5+ T cells in the psoriatic epidermis.
Toward Precision Medicine Approaches to Facilitate Safer Opioid Treatment
In our recent manuscript we describe our approach to objectively detect opioid administration using non-invasive wearable sensors. We envision this technology will ultimately be leveraged to support safer opioid prescribing, and identify warning signs before maladaptive use patterns occur.
Body iron stores and the risk for non-communicable disease in Indian children
High body iron stores have been associated with a higher risk for diabetes, dyslipidaemia and even hypertension in adults, with defined pathophysiological mechanisms. This association has not been described in iron supplemented children, and is relevant in India with universal iron fortification.
Procurement, not patents, was the key to vaccine and antiviral development during the pandemic
While intellectual property played a role in building technology platforms, the real star incentive bringing vaccines and antivirals forward was public sector investment, most prominently procurement. Understanding this reality provides an opportunity for proactive planning before the next pandemic.
