Host-mediated lung inflammation is present1, and drives mortality2, in the critical illness caused by coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). Host genetic variants associated with may identify mechanistic targets for therapeutic development3. Here we report results of GenOMICC (Genetics Of Mortality In Critical Care) genome-wide association study 2,244 critically ill patients COVID-19 from 208 UK intensive care units. We have identified replicated following new significant associations: on...
Abstract Critical COVID-19 is caused by immune-mediated inflammatory lung injury. Host genetic variation influences the development of illness requiring critical care 1 or hospitalization 2–4 after infection with SARS-CoV-2. The GenOMICC (Genetics Mortality in Care) study enables comparison genomes from individuals who are critically ill those population controls to find underlying disease mechanisms. Here we use whole-genome sequencing 7,491 compared 48,400 discover and replicate 23...
Abstract The subset of patients who develop critical illness in Covid-19 have extensive inflammation affecting the lungs 1 and are strikingly different from other patients: immunosuppressive therapy benefits critically-ill patients, but may harm some non-critical cases. 2 Since susceptibility to life-threatening infections immune-mediated diseases both strongly heritable traits, we reasoned that host genetic variation identify mechanistic targets for therapeutic development Covid-19. 3...
COVID-19 is clinically characterised by fever, cough, and dyspnoea. Symptoms affecting other organ systems have been reported. However, it the clinical associations of different patterns symptoms which influence diagnostic therapeutic decision-making. In this study, we applied clustering techniques to a large prospective cohort hospitalised patients with identify meaningful sub-phenotypes. We obtained structured data on 59,011 in UK (the ISARIC Coronavirus Clinical Characterisation...
Abstract Critical illness in COVID-19 is caused by inflammatory lung injury, mediated the host immune system. We and others have shown that genetic variation influences development of requiring critical care 1 or hospitalisation 2;3;4 following SARS-Co-V2 infection. The GenOMICC (Genetics Mortality Care) study recruits critically-ill cases compares their genomes with population controls order to find underlying disease mechanisms. Here, we use whole genome sequencing statistical fine mapping...
Abstract The ongoing SARS-CoV-2 pandemic was initially managed by non-pharmaceutical interventions such as diagnostic testing, isolation of positive cases, physical distancing and lockdowns. advent vaccines has provided crucial protection against SARS-CoV-2. Neutralising antibody (nAb) responses are a key correlate protection, therefore measuring nAb is essential for monitoring vaccine efficacy. Fingerstick dried blood spots (DBS) ideal use in large-scale sero-surveillance because they...
Abstract Background Severe COVID-19 is characterised by fever, cough, and dyspnoea. Symptoms affecting other organ systems have been reported. However, it the clinical associations of different patterns symptoms which influence diagnostic therapeutic decision-making. In this study, we applied simple machine learning techniques to a large prospective cohort hospitalised patients with identify clinically meaningful sub-groups. Methods We obtained structured data on 59 011 in UK (the ISARIC...
Development of more complex, biologically relevant, and predictive cell-based assays for compound screening is a major challenge in drug discovery. The focus this study was to establish high-throughput compatible three-dimensional (3D) cardiotoxicity using human induced pluripotent stem cell-derived cardiomyocytes. Using both high-content imaging fast kinetic fluorescence imaging, the impact various compounds on beating rates patterns cardiac spheroids monitored by changes intracellular Ca2+...
Abstract Pulmonary inflammation drives critical illness in Covid-19, 1;2 creating a clinically homogeneous extreme phenotype, which we have previously shown to be highly efficient for discovery of genetic associations. 3;4 Despite the advanced stage illness, found that immunomodulatory therapies strong beneficial effects this group. 1;5 Further discoveries may identify additional therapeutic targets modulate severe disease. 6 In new data release from GenOMICC (Genetics Of Mortality Critical...
Out of hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) is a common problem. Rates survival are low and proportion survivors left with an unfavourable neurological outcome. Four models have been developed to predict risk outcome at the time critical care admission - Cardiac Arrest Hospital Prognosis (CAHP), MIRACLE
