“Yet the Problem Remains”: Why Genetic Determinism Still Haunts Biomedical Research
ABSTRACT After the horrors of the Holocaust and its connections to eugenics were revealed to the world, many post‐war population geneticists sought to establish rhetorical distance from the Nazi's state‐led campaigns, without abandoning their belief that actively shaping the population's genetics would produce a prosperous society.

Family history of haematological malignancy and prognosis across non‐Hodgkin lymphoma subtypes
Multivariable‐adjusted associations between family history of haematological malignancy (FHHM) and survival outcomes by non‐Hodgkin lymphoma subtype [OS (A), EFS (B), LSS (C) and failure to achieve EFS at 24 months (D)]. Subtype‐specific analyses showed that FHHM was associated with significantly inferior EFS in MCL and inferior LSS in FL.

Summary Evidence for an association between insulin‐like growth factors (IGF) and multiple myeloma (MM) is inconsistent. We examined total IGF‐I concentrations and risk of MM by combining baseline serological data among UK Biobank participants (n = 444 187; 732 incident MM) with a two‐sample Mendelian randomisation (MR) analysis using identified ...

Summary Individuals with sickle cell anaemia (SCA) exhibit significant clinical heterogeneity influenced by several factors, especially fetal haemoglobin (HbF) levels. Variations in adult HbF levels are partly explained by the co‐inheritance of genetic variants that regulate globin expression.
