“…METHODS: We analysed systemic inflammatory biomarkers (neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), leucocyte-to-lymphocyte ratio (LLR), platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio (PLR), systemic inflammation response index (SIRI) and modified Glasgow Prognostic Score (mGPS)) at the time of cancer diagnosis and their association with overall survival (OS) in patients with gastroesophageal adenocarcinoma treated at the Medical University of Vienna between 1990 and 2020. RESULTS: In this analysis of 769 patients with gastroesophageal adenocarcinoma, higher mGPS (0–2) scores were associated with shorter OS in the overall cohort (24.9 versus 11.9 versus 7.6 months; HR 1.74, 95% CI 1.549–1.056; p < 0.001), in locally advanced (31.1 versus 19.8 versus 13.9 months, HR 1.561, 95% CI 1.274–1.912; p < 0.001) and in advanced/metastatic settings (12.3 versus 7.3 versus 5.8 months; HR 1.377, 95% CI 1.777–1.611; p < 0.001). …”

“…For a pilot project examining vector competence of mosquitoes of the Culex pipiens complex and Culex torrentium for protozoan parasites in the city of Vienna, 316 individual mosquitoes were sampled in the months June–August 2017 around the campus of the Veterinary University of Vienna. Since vector competence for avian Plasmodium can only be ascertained by finding infectious sporozoites in mosquito salivary glands, special emphasis was on examining these, or at least insect thoraxes, which contain the salivary glands. …”
