Multivariate Analysis of Hematological Stress Biomarkers and Welfare Domains in Organic and Intensive Pig Farming in Italy: A Pilot Study

Animal Research and One Health, EarlyView.
Intensive or organic farming systems may expose pigs to management or environmental challenges. Our preliminary results concluded that organic farming might enhance adaptive immune function, showing that improvements in welfare can translate into measurable immunological benefits, based on the correlation between welfare assessment and physiological ...

Artificial intelligence meets genomic selection: comparing deep learning and GBLUP across diverse plant datasets

Frontiers in Genetics
To enhance the implementation of genomic selection (GS) in plant breeding, we conducted a comprehensive comparative analysis of deep learning (DL) models and genomic best linear unbiased predictor (GBLUP) methods across 14 real-world datasets derived ...

"On Measuring Uncertainty of Small Area Estimators with Higher Order Accuracy" [PDF]

The empirical best linear unbiased predictor (EBLUP) or the empirical Bayes estimator (EB) in the linear mixed model is recognized useful for the small area estimation, because it can increase the estimation precision by using the information from the ...

Treatment of a Large Cohort of Childhood Chronic Noninfectious Uveitis in a Multicentric Large Study: Adalimumab Versus Methotrexate as First‐Line Therapy

Arthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Objective Treatment of childhood chronic idiopathic uveitis (cCIU) is predominantly based on studies in juvenile idiopathic arthritis–associated uveitis and expert opinion. Our aim was to report the treatment outcomes of our cohort of cCIU. Methods Retrospective multicenter study involving the rheumatology and ophthalmology units at Florence, Italy ...

A Metabolomic Signature Predicts Gout Flare Clinical Outcome Associated With Colchicine Prophylaxis

Arthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Objective This study investigated that serum metabolomics, before urate‐lowering therapy (ULT) initiation, could serve as a biomarker for responsiveness to colchicine prophylaxis in patients with gout commencing treat‐to‐target ULT. Methods We studied a multicenter prospective cohort (n = 409) initiating treat‐to‐target ULT plus colchicine prophylaxis.

Opposing consensus science through scholarly practices: The role of claims maintenance

Journal of the Association for Information Science and Technology, EarlyView.
Abstract This study examines how three US‐based communities who oppose consensus science produce and disseminate scholarly‐like artifacts: pro‐life activists, Young Earth Creationists, and Anthropogenic Climate Crisis skeptics. Prior research shows that industry‐ or church‐backed advocacy campaigns often generate claims supported by these communities ...

Mechanism‐informed machine learning for individualized tacrolimus dose adjustment in the early post‐kidney transplant period

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Aim Tacrolimus dosing in the early post‐kidney transplant period is challenging due to a narrow therapeutic index and substantial interindividual pharmacokinetic (PK) variability. This study aimed to develop and validate mechanism‐informed machine learning (ML) models to support individualized tacrolimus dosing during this critical period ...

The evidence base for ranger patrol effectiveness in conservation and how to improve it

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Ranger patrols are a cornerstone of wildlife protection efforts around the world and occur across all ecological governance systems. Evidence that patrols reduce threats to wildlife and enable their recovery has not been systematically examined previously.
