Distortion in the Communication of Nonsignificant Primary Outcomes: The Spin Strategy in Multiple Sclerosis Trials. [PDF]
Objective Spin refers to reporting strategies that highlight the benefits of an experimental treatment or divert attention from nonsignificant primary outcomes. We aimed to assess spin in randomized controlled trials (RCTs) on pharmaceutical efficacy in multiple sclerosis (MS) and explore associated factors.

The MegaPool Approach to Characterize Adaptive CD4+ and CD8+ T Cell Responses
Abstract Epitopes recognized by T cells are a collection of short peptide fragments derived from specific antigens or proteins. Immunological research to study T cell responses is hindered by the extreme degree of heterogeneity of epitope targets, which are usually derived from multiple antigens; within a given antigen, hundreds of different T cell ...

Abstract Treatment for chronic hepatitis B virus infection (cHBV) is mostly indefinite, with new finite‐duration therapies needed. We report safety, pharmacokinetics and antiviral activity of the investigational HBV core inhibitor ABI‐H2158. This Phase 1a/b study (NCT03714152) had three parts: Part A, participants received a single ascending oral dose ...

Detecting and reducing heterogeneity of error in acoustic classification
Abstract Passive acoustic monitoring can be an effective method for monitoring species, allowing the assembly of large audio datasets, removing logistical constraints in data collection and reducing anthropogenic monitoring disturbances. However, the analysis of large acoustic datasets is challenging and fully automated machine learning processes are ...

Immunological memory to SARS‐CoV‐2 infection and COVID‐19 vaccines
Abstract Immunological memory is the basis of protective immunity provided by vaccines and previous infections. Immunological memory can develop from multiple branches of the adaptive immune system, including CD4 T cells, CD8 T cells, B cells, and long‐lasting antibody responses.

Abstract This study aimed to develop and validate an instrument to assess Brazilian adults’ knowledge, perceptions, and behaviors (KPB) toward salt and sodium. Based on a PAHO/WHO questionnaire, a new instrument was developed and evaluated by 11 experts, generating item and scale‐level content validity indexes (I‐CVI and S‐CVI, respectively).

“In acute infection, combinations with only IFN‐γ were deleterious and those with IL‐2 were associated with a better course of acute infection. Additionally, mild patients had a more polyfunctional T response. In severe patients, there was increased antibody production inversely associated with the expression of combinations including IL‐2.

Abstract Conservationists often assume that connection with and caring about nature's well‐being is strongly linked to ecological knowledge. Existing evidence on the link between ecological knowledge and psychological nature connection is mixed, geographically limited to countries in the Global North, and does not scrutinise potential differences in ...
