Goal of the Leipzig Research Center for Civilization Diseases (LIFE) is the investigation of civilization diseases like depression, diabetes, allergies or cardiovascular diseases. For this purpose we collect as much data as possible regarding health and living conditions of the population in Leipzig and provide these data for scientists of the University of Leipzig and other research institutions.
As an interdisciplinary network of scientists, the SepNet study group deals with the topics of severe sepsis and septic shock. The aim of the network is to create the prerequisites for better clinical and experimental research into sepsis and thus to develop efficient treatment approaches.

The German Consortium for Hereditary Non-Polyposis Colorectal Cancer has been founded in 1999 by the German Cancer Aid and has been funded by the German Cancer Aid until recently. GC-HNPCC currently comprises 6 university centers providing genetic counseling, histopathological and molecular tissue analysis, genetic testing, and specific structured surveillance programs for early cancer detection at each clinical unit, all based on defined standard operating procedures.

The LIFE-Heart study recruited 7,000 patients with suspected coronary heart disease, manifest heart disease or myocardial infarction. All patients received coronary angiography so that the vascular status in the heart is precisely known. In principle, this examination is not feasible in population-related studies. In addition, the patients were thoroughly examined with regard to the general vascular status and the health of the cardiovascular system. Extensive environmental factors were recorded.

Severe sepsis and septic shock have a high mortality. Research has concentrated on adjunctive sepsis therapies; the role of supportive measures is comparatively unclear. In Europe the use of colloids is widespread, but there is no evidence on the role of either crystalloid or colloid volume therapy in sepsis. Recently, a higher incidence of kidney failure in sepsis was reported after administration of colloids.

We analysed if measuring PWV in different segments of the body leads to association with different genetic variants, as well as different heritability and different genetic correlation with other biological traits. Furthermore we searched for shared genetic architecture concerning PWV, blood pressure (BP) and coronary artery disease (CAD) and examined the causal relationship between PWV and BP.
We defined six operationalizations of CPB considering plaques in common carotid arteries, carotid bulb, and internal carotid arteries (maximal plaque area, mean plaque area, sum of plaque areas at all six regions, maximal degree of stenosis, mean degree of stenosis, and sum of stenosis at all six regions).

All studies and research projects those data are hosted by the Leipzig Health Atlas should follow the FAIR standard. Thus, data are findable, accessible, interoperable, and reusable. To follow the FAIR standard, all data need to be described by rich metadata, on the technical and semantical level. These metadata can then be used to query and search for data elements in a single study or over all studies.
We provide the LHA data portal allowing to searching and accessing data elements in single

The Covid‐19 viewer provides an intuitive tool to monitor the development of the pandemic in 188 countries using simple plots. The tool is interactive and enables the user to select different plots for single countries, groups or all of them. It visualizes descriptive features such as slopes or flattening behaviour of epidemic numbers and of their increments to allow a qualitative justification of the current state of the pandemic, e.g. whether it is growing exponentially, stopped due to counter

Depending on the calculated mutation probability genetic counsellors can decide whether patients should undergo further analysis of microsatellite instability and immunohistochemistry. The model is recommended for patients with an age at colorectal cancer diagnosis of 55 or younger.
"MMRpredict" is a risk prediction model for patients with colorectal cancer (Barnetson et al. 2006). It calculates the risk of having a mutation in the mismatch repair genes MLH1, MSH2 and MSH6 (overall probability)

The PREMM1,2,6 has been developed as a pretest to decide whether patients suspected of having Lynch syndrome should be tested for germline mismatch repair gene mutations.
"PREMM1,2,6" is a logistic regression model. It calculates the risk of having a mutation in the mismatch repair genes MLH1, MSH2 and MSH6 (for single genes and overall) based on the personal and familial cancer history of the proband (colorectal, endometrial, and other Lynch syndrome related cancers).
