The long-term effects of sepsis: years of treatment and care needs
Three in four sepsis survivors experience new-onset memory problems, psychological impairments or physical diagnoses. This also applies to more than half of sepsis survivors under the age of 40 at the time of their discharge from hospital. These are just two of the findings of a retrospective analysis of anonymized health claims data conducted by a team of researchers from Jena University Hospital, Charité - Universitätsmedizin Berlin and the Research Institute of the Local Health Care Funds (AOK).

Fungal infections in Africa: no adequate treatment despite millions of affected patients
Together with an international team of experts, Professor Dr Oliver Cornely, head of the European Excellence Center for Invasive Fungal Infections at University Hospital Cologne, has conducted a study to investigate the current situation of clinical mycology - the treatment of fungal diseases - on the African continent, revealing significant deficits.

New algorithm for classification of skin lesions
Dermatologists typically classify skin lesions based on multiple data sources. Algorithms that fuse the information together can support this classification. An international research team has now developed an algorithm that classifies skin lesions more accurately than previous algorithms by using an improved data fusion process.

Creative Through Movement
01/14/2022 Do we have our best ideas while walking? Indeed, but even small movements while sitting improve creativity, as two researchers have discovered. Movement helps us to think creatively. This insight is over 2000 years old - and already known to the philosophers in ancient Greece. However, what is the connection between movement and cognition from a scientific point of view?

A medication against SARS-CoV-2
Vaccines against the SARS-CoV-2 virus have been made possible by an unprecedented worldwide partnership. But mediacations against Covid-19 have as yet seen only partial success. With the support of the Bavarian Research Foundation, a Munich research team has developed a protein which has reliably prevented infection by the virus and its variants in cell tests.
