Block Designs that Provide Optimal Power in the Cochran-Mantel-Haenszel Test

We consider the asymptotic power performance under local alternatives of the Cochran-Mantel-Haenszel test. Our setting is non-traditional: we investigate randomized experiments that assign subjects via Fisher's blocking design. We show that blocking designs that satisfy a certain balance condition are asymptotically optimal. When the potential outcomes

Clinical effectiveness of procalcitonin‐ or C‐reactive protein‐guided antibiotic discontinuation protocols for adult patients who are critically ill with sepsis: a rapid systematic review and meta‐analysis

Anaesthesia, Volume 81, Issue 4, Page 556-569, April 2026.
Summary Introduction Antibiotics are a first‐line treatment for sepsis, with guidelines recommending a 7‐ to 10‐day course. Prolonged antibiotic use carries significant risks, prompting growing interest in using inflammatory biomarkers, such as procalcitonin or C‐reactive protein, to guide clinical decision‐making on the duration of antibiotic therapy ...

Efficacy and safety of ME3183, an oral phosphodiesterase 4 inhibitor, in patients with plaque psoriasis

Journal of the European Academy of Dermatology and Venereology, Volume 40, Issue 4, Page 610-616, April 2026.
We assessed four different doses of ME3183, a novel phosphodiesterase 4 inhibitor, and placebo in 132 patients with moderate to severe plaque psoriasis. At Week 16, more patients receiving ME3183 achieved ≥75% reduction in baseline Psoriasis Area and Severity Index scores than those receiving placebo, with no new safety concerns.

Maternal Mushroom Consumption During Pregnancy Is Associated With Decreased Risk of Peer Problems and Decreased Risk of Low Prosocial Behavior in 5‐Year‐Olds

Journal of Human Nutrition and Dietetics, Volume 39, Issue 2, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Edible mushrooms have long been recognized for their nutritional value. In the Kyushu Okinawa Maternal and Child Health Study, a prebirth cohort study, we examined the association between maternal mushroom intake during pregnancy and risk of childhood behavioral problems in Japanese 5‐year‐olds.
