Non-linear association of triglyceride-glucose index with cardiovascular and all-cause mortality in T2DM patients with diabetic kidney disease: NHANES 2001–2018 retrospective cohort study

Lipids in Health and Disease
Background The triglyceride glucose (TyG) index is a cutting-edge and highly effective marker of insulin resistance, a crucial factor in the development and exacerbation of diabetic kidney disease (DKD).

Simultaneous detection of gradual and abrupt structural changes in Bayesian longitudinal modelling using entropy and model fit measures

British Journal of Mathematical and Statistical Psychology, EarlyView.
Abstract Although individuals may exhibit both gradual and abrupt changes in their dynamic properties as shaped by both slowly accumulating influences and acute events, existing statistical frameworks offer limited capacity for the simultaneous detection and representation of these distinct change patterns.

Mapping Escolar (Lepidocybium flavobrunneum) in Motion: Oceanographic Forces Shaping Its Habitat in the Southwestern South Atlantic, With Insights From Fishers' Perceptions

Fisheries Oceanography, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Lepidocybium flavobrunneum [Smith, 1843], commonly known as escolar, is a large pelagic species, important for global and local fisheries, particularly in the southwestern South Atlantic Ocean (SWAO), where it constitutes a significant portion of the catch.

Ambient temperature-related sex ratio at birth in historical urban populations: the example of the city of Poznań, 1848–1900

Scientific Reports
This study examines whether exposure to ambient temperature in nineteenth-century urban space affected the ratio of boys to girls at birth. Furthermore, we investigate the details of temperature effects timing upon sex ratio at birth.

Reference Values for the Haemophilia Joint Health Score in Patients With Severe Haemophilia Derived From the Canadian Bleeding Disorder Registry

Haemophilia, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background People with haemophilia (PwH) are at increased risk of joint bleeding, often leading to haemophilic arthropathy. The Haemophilia Joint Health Score (HJHS) is widely used to evaluate joint health, but its interpretability is limited by the lack of age‐based reference values.

Increased neural responsiveness to distractors irrespective of perceptual load explains attention deficit in post‐stroke fatigue

Journal of Neuropsychology, EarlyView.
Abstract Post‐stroke fatigue (PSF) is a prevalent symptom associated with attention deficits. However, it is currently unclear what drives these. Here we applied Load Theory of Attention to investigate the role of perceptual load in the relationship between attention, distraction and fatigue levels in PSF.

Architecture of lower leg muscles in children: Reference curves and potential mechanisms of growth

Journal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
Muscle architecture (physiological cross‐sectional area, fascicle lengths and pennation angle) was measured from multimodal MRI scans of the lower legs of 197 children aged ≤15 years. We showed that lower leg muscle volumes (product of PCSA and fascicle length) increase primarily through increases in PCSA (transverse growth) rather than increases in ...

Modeling of the daily dynamics in bike rental system using weather and calendar conditions: A semi-parametric approach

Scientific African
This study proposes a more robust methodological approach to modeling the effect of weather and calendar variables on the number of bike rentals. We employ penalized splines quasi-Poisson regression (a semi-parametric model), which involves some form of ...
