In collaboration with Alison Cole and Ulrich Technau we also mapped the peptidergic #connectome of #Nematostella, by linking peptide-expressing to receptor-expressing cells.
In #Cnidaria, tissues are extensively connected via #neuropeptide signalling.

Not all fevers are due to infection. That's the easy bit through - working out when it's safe to withhold antibiotics, that's way harder.

Can be done (👇) but are there criteria / biomarkers that can guide this better?

Pachyrhinosaurus paleoart study. Been awhile since I did one in this style and saw Pachyrhinosaurus was making a buzz online recently so felt compelled to do a quick paleoart study. #Pachyrhinosaurus #Dinosaurs #Paleoart

When I receiving this book, my memory flew to the years when I worked on eukaryotic protein domain annotations. Annotating A. thaliana, a model organism for plant, is part of the routine pipeline alongside with processing other organism proteomes such as Clamydomonas and others. Plant is always be an inseparable part of eukaryotic domains of life, along with human and others. Today, I'm very happy to receive this book from Adhit , my colleague. I hope it will be useful for our future works!

#IDMastodon #Viralimmunology @thelancetinfdis Data were collected & analysed between April 25 - Sept 25, 2022. For 157 861 #omicron-infected symptomatic individuals
📌Cough was the most common symptom (99 032 patients)
-Sore throat (95 838 [62·7%] patients),
-Nasal discharge (69 968 [60·7%] patients)
-Fever (61 218 [38·8%] patients).
Omicron BA.5 infection was associated with a higher prevalence of systemic symptoms than BA.2 in vaccinated & unvaccinated individuals

@thelancetinfdis Omicron BA.5 infection was associated with a higher prevalence of systemic symptoms than BA.2 in vaccinated and unvaccinated individuals (adjusted odds ratio [OR] for fever: 2·18 [95% CI 2·12–2·25]).
