Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a known complication of COVID-19 and associated with an increased risk in-hospital mortality. Unbiased proteomics using biological specimens can lead to improved stratification discover pathophysiological mechanisms.
Despite effective antiviral therapy for hepatitis C virus (HCV), people who are incarcerated and those returning to the community face challenges in obtaining HCV treatment. We aimed explore facilitators barriers treatment during after incarceration. From July–November 2020 June–July 2021, we conducted 27 semi-structured interviews with residents were formerly jail or prison.

Abstract Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a known complication of COVID-19 and associated with an increased risk in-hospital mortality. Unbiased proteomics using biological specimens can lead to improved stratification discover pathophysiological mechanisms. Using measurements ∼4000 plasma proteins in two cohorts patients hospitalized COVID-19, we discovered validated markers COVID-associated AKI (stage 2 or 3) long-term dysfunction. In the discovery cohort (N= 437), identified 413 higher...
Research in dermatology education highlights the lack of skin color (SOC) instruction for medical students, leading to concerning healthcare outcomes.
