More than 52,800 deaths have been confirmed as a result of the earthquake
A Northampton woman's family have been left stranded by Turkey earthquake - just a year after she lost her father to Covid. Aylin Kimpton has lived in Northampton since 2008 with her husband.
"I came back to the UK with the intention of going back again to help my dad to recover. Sadly, we lost him before I was able to return to Turkey. My family and I are still grieving a year later. She said: "Luckily my mum, sister and aunties - who lived in that area - were safe but they had to leave their apartment. Since then, my mum, sister, aunties, uncle and cousins have all been staying at my sister's office.
"Many experts are warning of potential danger in Adana. The ongoing aftershocks are still powerful, so they are advising not to re-occupy damaged buildings.

Organ and cell-specific biomarkers of Long-COVID identified with targeted proteomics and machine learning - Molecular MedicineBackground Survivors of acute COVID-19 often suffer prolonged, diffuse symptoms post-infection, referred to as “Long-COVID”. A lack of Long-COVID biomarkers and pathophysiological mechanisms limits effective diagnosis, treatment and disease surveillance. We performed targeted proteomics and machine learning analyses to identify novel blood biomarkers of Long-COVID. Methods A case–control study comparing the expression of 2925 unique blood proteins in Long-COVID outpatients versus COVID-19 inpatients and healthy control subjects. Targeted proteomics was accomplished with proximity extension assays, and machine learning was used to identify the most important proteins for identifying Long-COVID patients. Organ system and cell type expression patterns were identified with Natural Language Processing (NLP) of the UniProt Knowledgebase. Results Machine learning analysis identified 119 relevant proteins for differentiating Long-COVID outpatients (Bonferonni corrected P | 0.01). Protein combinations were narrowed down to two optimal models, with nine and five proteins each, and with both having excellent sensitivity and specificity for Long-COVID status (AUC = 1.00, F1 = 1.00). NLP expression analysis highlighted the diffuse organ system involvement in Long-COVID, as well as the involved cell types, including leukocytes and platelets, as key components associated with Long-COVID. Conclusions Proteomic analysis of plasma from Long-COVID patients identified 119 highly relevant proteins and two optimal models with nine and five proteins, respectively. The identified proteins reflected widespread organ and cell type expression. Optimal protein models, as well as individual proteins, hold the potential for accurate diagnosis of Long-COVID and targeted therapeutics.
