A Machine Learning–Derived Risk Scorecard for Pneumonia Hospitalization in Japanese Old‐Old Adults

Geriatrics &Gerontology International, Volume 26, Issue 10, October 2026.
In 1 098 404 community‐dwelling Japanese adults aged ≥ 75 years, a 20‐learner Super Learner using routinely collected health checkup and claims data predicted 1‐year pneumonia hospitalization (test‐set AUC 0.823). An independently developed, well‐calibrated 17‐feature scorecard showed AUC 0.786 and a 15.9‐fold low‐to‐high risk gradient; external ...

Using Synthetic Glycans to Investigate Anti‐Glycan Antibodies and Explore Their Medical Potential

Angewandte Chemie International Edition, Volume 65, Issue 39, 21 September 2026.
Anti‐glycan antibodies are essential in health and disease. Access to novel glycan structures paves the way for progress in antibody profiling for biomarker discovery, antibody development, and vaccine design. We summarize the strategies to synthesize and utilize synthetic glycans for the development and application of anti‐glycan antibodies in basic ...

Trends in invasive and non-invasive Streptococcus pneumoniae disease in adults hospitalised in Bristol and Bath: a retrospective cohort study, 2006–2022

BMC Infectious Diseases
Background Pneumococcal surveillance typically focuses on cases identified by positive microbiology and collects limited clinical data. The majority of pneumococcal studies in the literature focus on invasive respiratory disease.
