Incidence of P200 pemphigoid: A nationwide study

Journal of the European Academy of Dermatology and Venereology, EarlyView.
The anti‐LAMB4 cell‐based immunoassay is a new serological technique that is far superior to dermal immunoblotting for detecting autoantibodies directed against the P200 protein. This method allows a re‐evaluation of the incidence of P200 pemphigoid, which appears to be considerably more frequent than epidermolysis bullosa acquisita.

Does DIF signal a lack of essential unidimensionality? [PDF]

, 2009
The majority of applied differential item functioning (DIF) studies test hypotheses regarding probability differences. The presence of DIF then is often attributed to the assumption of multidimensionality, without any empirical evidence of a demonstrable

Tocilizumab for severe and refractory mucous membrane pemphigoid

Journal of the European Academy of Dermatology and Venereology, EarlyView.
Elevated IL‐6 levels identified in mucous membrane pemphigoid support IL‐6 blockade, with tocilizumab demonstrating clinical benefit in nine patients with severe and refractory mucous membrane pemphigoid. Abstract Background Mucous membrane pemphigoid (MMP) is a rare autoimmune blistering disease involving mucous membranes with a potentially ...

Preservation of positive emotion recognition in patients with multiple sclerosis: Artefact related to methodological issues or real feature of the disorder?

Journal of Neuropsychology, EarlyView.
Abstract Prior studies in multiple sclerosis (MS) suggest preserved recognition of positive emotions despite deficits for negative ones, but this dissociation may reflect methodological limitations (valence‐asymmetry: positive‐valence being limited to happiness/joy in basic‐emotion sets). This study tested whether emotion–recognition deficits in MS are

Assessing the Effectiveness of Workers' Selection Exams: The Case of the Bank of Italy

Oxford Bulletin of Economics and Statistics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT High‐stakes exams can be used to rank and select candidates for job openings, and the ability of those selected hinges on the design of the exam. I propose a method to model candidates' performance to assess how effective the exam is at selecting high‐ability candidates.

Development and Validation of the WAI‐Tele‐Reha‐G: A Measure of Therapeutic Alliance in Telerehabilitation

Physiotherapy Research International, Volume 31, Issue 4, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Background and Purpose Therapeutic alliance (TA)—the collaborative therapist–client partnership—is pivotal to outcomes, yet TA tools tailored to telerehabilitation are limited. We developed and preliminarily validated a therapist‐reported measure for physiotherapists (PTs), occupational therapists (OTs), and speech and language therapists ...

GABA+‐Edited Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy Deep Learning Quality Assessment Framework

Magnetic Resonance in Medicine, Volume 96, Issue 3, Page 1028-1041, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Purpose Motivated by the need to improve GABA+‐edited magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS) quality, we developed a three‐module framework to improve transient averaging based on quality. We hypothesized that training a deep learning (DL) model to differentiate spectrum quality could improve transient averaging compared to traditional ...
