Prepandemic levels of cytokines and immunoglobulins and risk of Sars-CoV-2 infection and Covid-19 in the general population of Barcelona
Background From a public health perspective it is remarkable that there are yet no longitudinal studies in the general population investigating the influence of the basal immune state, measured before the pandemic, on the risk of SARS-CoV-2 infection and COVID-19. Objective To investigate the specific and combined effects of personal levels of cytokines and immunoglobulins—measured in individuals’ blood 4 years before the pandemic—on the risk of …
Stability of cytokine and immunoglobulin concentrations in the general population: Prepandemic basal concentrations and intraindividual changes until the Covid-19 pandemic
Background: While there is wide evidence on concentrations of cytokines in patients attending health care facilities, evidence is scant on physiological, basal concentrations of cytokines in the general population and across sociodemographic groups, as well as on their potential stability over time. Furthermore, from a public health perspective it is remarkable that no studies have analyzed intraindividual changes in such concentrations from befo…

Rising rural body-mass index is the main driver of the global obesity epidemic in adults
Body-mass index (BMI) has increased steadily in most countries in parallel with a rise in the proportion of the population who live in cities 1,2 . This has led to a widely reported view that urbanization is one of the most important drivers of the global rise in obesity 3–6 . Here we use 2,009 population-based studies, with measurements of height and weight in more than 112 million adults, to report national, regional and global trends in mean B…

Discourses on the Toxic Effects of Internal Chemical Contamination in Catalonia, Spain
Human exposure to and contamination by environmental toxic compounds generates discourses and practices that merit greater attention. In this article, we assess internal chemical contamination and the risk of toxic effects as an experience related to the production of meaning in everyday life. Drawing on the analysis of semantic networks of narratives from semi-structured interviews conducted with 43 informants in Catalonia, Spain, we consider pa…

Food packaging and migration of food contact materials: Will epidemiologists rise to the neotoxic challenge
In the early 1990s, several groups of scientists—including epidemiologists and pneumologists—began to publish a series of prospective studies reporting an increased incidence of cardiovascular diseases in people exposed to low levels of airborne particles.1 ,2 Before these publications, toxicological studies had primarily focused on pulmonary effects of particulates in laboratory animals—and the results from those studies indicated that air pollu…
STrengthening the Reporting of OBservational studies in Epidemiology: Molecular Epidemiology STROBE-ME. An extension of the STROBE statement
Advances in laboratory techniques have led to a rapidly increasing use of biomarkers in epidemiological studies. Biomarkers of internal dose, early biological change, susceptibility, and clinical outcomes are used as proxies for investigating the interactions between external and/or endogenous agents and the body components or processes. The need for improved reporting of scientific research led to influential statements of recommendations such a…
The 99: A story on health, cross-cultural cooperation and acceptance in times of crisis
Much as the format of the article that we publish on pages 293–2961 is highly unusual in academic journals, we will all immediately recognise, I trust, that it has long been a common format in our lives and, more importantly, in the lives of our populations—and not just among the youngest citizens: we all grew up reading comics and immersed in cultures with powerful images and visual vehicles of communication, socialisation and education. The cen…

News of the death of biomedical journals seem premature. Revamped traditional scientific journals remain highly valued sources and vehicles of information, critical debate, and knowledge. Some analyses seem to place a disproportionate emphasis on technological and formal issues, as compared to the importance ascribed to matters of power. Not all journals must necessarily have a large circulation. There are many examples of efficient, high-quality…
Incomplete overlapping of biological, clinical, and environmental information in molecular epidemiological studies: A variety of causes and a cascade of consequences

Even if nowadays some features of molecular epidemiological studies retain some novelty, other basic challenges have always been undisputed. Prominently, the need to integrate valid biological, clinical, and epidemiological information from unbiasedly…
Doubts on the appropriateness of universal human papillomavirus vaccination: Is evidence on public health benefits already available
How symbiotic lifestyles evolve from free-living ecologies is poorly understood. In Metazoa’s largest family, Staphylinidae (rove beetles), numerous lineages have evolved obligate behavioral symbioses with ants or termites. Widespread convergence of this lifestyle is thought to stem from a novel, chemically defended body plan that enables free-living species to infiltrate colonies and undergo extreme evolutionary specialization. Here we show how …
Book citations: Influence of epidemiologic thought in the academic community

Bovine spongiform encephalopathy, persistent organic pollutants, and the achievable utopias
Does it make much sense to ask your butcher whether a piece of beef contains the bovine spongiform encephalopathy prion protein? I doubt it. Essentially—but not solely, as explained below—because it is unlikely that any prion would be found, even if an efficient test to detect it was available for use on a daily basis. By contrast, it is perfectly sensible to ask your butcher, grocer, or supermarket manager how much the meat, fish, or milk you bu…

Stomach cancer mortality in Spain: An ecological analysis of diet, altitude, latitude, and income
The decline over the past decade in the incidence and mortality from stomach cancer has been documented in numerous studies carried out in different parts of the world. Stomach cancer, however, still causes a high number of deaths in Spain.' The geographical distribution of stomach cancer varies greatly. In general, it shows a higher incidence in poorer, more northerly regions, located at higher altitudes.2 Among the different factors that have b…

Decreased survival of patients with lung cancer admitted to a teaching hospital through the emergency department in Barcelona, Spain
Few studies have analysed the characteristics and prognosis of patients with lung cancer that present to accident and emergency departments.1 Improving the referral of cancer patients from primary care to hospitals is of wide interest in many Western countries.2 Hospital tumour registries have a role in assessing clinical outcomes. The tumour registry of our hospital has noted that half of all initial admissions for cancer occur via the
