Health Digest: PTSD Genetics, Vitamin D, GLP-1 Risks and More

· 8 source(s)

Short summary

A large study suggests genetic risk for PTSD may vary by trauma type, particularly childhood neglect, according to Medical Xpress. Nearly a decade of research strengthens the case for vitamin D in pregnancy, Medical Xpress reports. A simple urine test could guide kidney-protective treatment choices in type 2 diabetes, per Medical Xpress. The BMJ investigation finds US officials sidelined warnings about a flawed COVID vaccine safety algorithm, Medical Xpress notes. Early tumor environment changes may explain immunotherapy success or failure, Medical Xpress says. GLP-1 drugs are linked to an 11-
