The use of a pessary for preterm birth prevention does not appear to adversely affect Lactobacillus relative abundance or microbial diversity.

Patient-reported outcomes provide prognostic information for survival in patients with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma: Analysis of 1239 patients from the GOYA study. [PDF]

Cancer Med, 2022
Patient reported outcomes were exhaustively reviewed for prognostic signal in GOYA ‐ the largest trial to date for DLBCL ‐ and multiple scales at baseline were prognostic even after multiple testing correction.

A prognostic model integrating PET-derived metrics and image texture analyses with clinical risk factors from GOYA. [PDF]

EJHaem, 2022
Abstract Image texture analysis (radiomics) uses radiographic images to quantify characteristics that may identify tumour heterogeneity and associated patient outcomes. Using fluoro‐deoxy‐glucose positron emission tomography/computed tomography (FDG‐PET/CT)‐derived data, including quantitative metrics, image texture analysis and other clinical risk ...

Androgen receptor polyQ alleles and COVID‐19 severity in men: A replication study

Andrology, Volume 11, Issue 1, Page 24-31, January 2023., 2023
Abstract Background Ample evidence indicates a sex‐related difference in severity of COVID‐19, with less favorable outcomes observed in men. Genetic factors have been proposed as candidates to explain this difference. The polyglutamine (polyQ) polymorphism in the androgen receptor gene has been recently described as a genetic biomarker of COVID‐19 ...

‘Kind of Goya‐esque or Something’: Charles Ray's Early Works

Art History, Volume 45, Issue 2, Page 280-307, April 2022., 2022
In Charles Ray's Plank Piece I‐II (1973), the artist creates a sculptural assemblage that holds him uncomfortably aloft. There has been little critical attention to his earliest performed sculptures created between from around 1973 to 1980, beyond characterizations as jejune experiments, homages, or hijinks.
