Genotype first: Clinical genomics research through a reverse phenotyping approach

Caralynn M. Wilczewski et al.

Summary: Genomic research has traditionally focused on identifying individuals with heritable disease, but with the decreasing cost of sequencing, there is now the opportunity to consider genomic ascertainment and reverse phenotyping. This research approach involves gathering individuals with specific genomic variants and conducting targeted phenotypic evaluations to test associated phenotypes. The use of this method can expand our understanding of predictive genomic medicine and increase the chance to mitigate genomic disease.

Short-term ozone exposure and metabolic status in metabolically healthy obese and normal-weight young adults: A viewpoint of inflammatory pathways

Wanzhou Wang et al.

Summary: The study found that compared to normal-weight individuals, obese individuals were more susceptible to the negative effects of O-3 on metabolic status, possibly through inflammatory indicators such as leptin, eosinophils, and MCP-1.

Exposure Risk of Global Surface O3 During the Boreal Spring Season

Yiqi Zhou et al.

Summary: Surface ozone (O-3) is a gaseous pollutant that has adverse effects on human health. The global O-3 concentration has been increasing due to human activities, but during the COVID-19 lockdown, it showed an inverted U-shaped growth. Mean wind speed, maximum temperature, and relative humidity are the main factors determining the change of O-3 concentration.

Evaluating the spatiotemporal ozone characteristics with high-resolution predictions in mainland China, 2013-2019

Xia Meng et al.

Summary: Evaluating ozone levels at high resolutions is crucial for understanding ozone distribution characteristics and assessing exposure levels. A random forest model combining various factors was developed to predict ground ozone concentrations in China, showing an overall increasing trend from 2013 to 2019 with higher pollution in certain regions.

Ozone exposure and prothrombosis: Mechanistic insights from a randomized controlled exposure trial

Yue Niu et al.

Summary: This study conducted a proteomic analysis to investigate the impact of ozone exposure on healthy young adults. The results showed that ozone exposure could increase blood coagulation factors and platelet activation, while decreasing some proteins. In addition, ozone exposure was found to be associated with lipid metabolism and immune response.

Aging biomarkers: Potential mediators of association between long-term ozone exposure and risk of atherosclerosis

Ruiying Li et al.

Summary: Long-term exposure to ambient ozone is associated with increased risk for atherosclerotic cardiovascular diseases (ASCVD), and this association is partially mediated by aging biomarkers (telomere length and mitochondrial copy number).

Ozone exposure during early pregnancy and preterm birth: A systematic review and meta-analysis

Kristen M. Rappazzo et al.

Summary: This systematic review summarized epidemiologic studies on the relationship between ozone exposure during early pregnancy and preterm birth. Results showed that increased ozone exposure during early pregnancy is associated with preterm birth across studies, with high heterogeneity observed in effect estimates for both exposure periods.

Calling differentially methylated regions from whole genome bisulphite sequencing with DMRcate

Timothy J. Peters et al.

Summary: Whole genome bisulphite sequencing (WGBS) allows for genome-wide study of single molecule methylation patterns. The study aims to locate differential methylation patterns across the genome using statistical methods, data simulation, and benchmarking. DMRcate is found to be the fastest and the best predictor of DMRs among the methods compared in the study.
