description: We revisit the classic situation in functional data analysis in which curves are observed at discrete, possibly sparse and irregular, arguments with observation noise. We focus on the reconstruction of individual curves by prediction intervals and bands. The standard approach consists of two steps: first, one estimates the mean and covariance function of curves and observation noise variance function by, e.g. penalized splines, and second, under Gaussian assumptions, one derives the conditional distribution of a curve given observed data and constructs prediction sets with required properties, usually employing sampling from the predictive distribution. This approach is well established, commonly used and theoretically valid but practically, it surprisingly fails in its key property: prediction sets constructed this way often do not have the required coverage. The actual coverage is lower than the nominal one. We investigate the cause of this issue and propose a computationally feasible remedy that leads to prediction regions with a much better coverage. Our method accounts for the uncertainty of the predictive model by sampling from the approximate distribution of its spline estimators whose covariance is estimated by a novel sandwich estimator. Our approach also applies to the important case of covariate-adjusted models.

description: Functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) enables indirect detection of brain activity changes via the blood-oxygen-level-dependent (BOLD) signal. Conventional analysis methods mainly rely on the real-valued magnitude of these signals. In contrast, research suggests that analyzing both real and imaginary components of the complex-valued fMRI (cv-fMRI) signal provides a more holistic approach that can increase power to detect neuronal activation. We propose a fully Bayesian model for brain activity mapping with cv-fMRI data. Our model accommodates temporal and spatial dynamics. Additionally, we propose a computationally efficient sampling algorithm, which enhances processing speed through image partitioning. Our approach is shown to be computationally efficient via image partitioning and parallel computation while being competitive with state-of-the-art methods. We support these claims with both simulated numerical studies and an application to real cv-fMRI data obtained from a finger-tapping experiment.

description: Identifying outliers in data analysis is a critical task, as outliers can significantly influence the results and conclusions drawn from a dataset. This study explores the use of the Mahalanobis distance metric for detecting outliers in multivariate data, focusing on a novel approach inspired by the work of M. Falk, [On mad and comedians, Ann. Inst. Stat. Math. 49 (1997), pp. 615–644]. The proposed method is rigorously tested through extensive simulation analysis, where it demonstrates high True Positive Rates (TPR) and low False Positive Rates (FPR) when compared to other existing outlier detection techniques. Through extensive simulation analysis, we empirically evaluate the affine equivariance and breakdown properties of our proposed distance measure and it is evident from the outputs that our robust distance measure demonstrates effective results with respect to the measures FPR and TPR. The proposed method was applied to seven different datasets, showing promising true positive rates (TPR) and false positive rates (FPR), and it outperformed several well-known outlier identification approaches. We can effectively use our proposed distance measure in fields demanding outlier detection.

description: The “Queens of the Arabs” are a unique group of women whose actions are only recorded in the sources of the Neo-Assyrian empire. They ruled in many of the same ways as other foreign male kings did: they led military campaigns, and were in control of their people’s assets. In a very real sense these women acted in a masculine manner. In this contribution, I will explain how hegemonic masculinities theory can provide nuance to a gendered reading of these women. I will then demonstrate how the “Queens of the Arabs” conformed to Assyrian ideals for foreign masculinities. Finally, I will discuss how the scribes and artists tasked with recording the actions of these women used motifs in their repertoires for both men and women to depict these masculine women in reliefs and texts.

Standing Rock’s Landscape of Liberation: Exploding Landscapes, Geographies, and Histories Towards New Futures
Creators: name: Colloredo-Mansfeld, Zoe
Publisher: name: Stanford Digital Repository
Year: 2024
Subjects: College students' writings, Standing Rock, public protest, protest art, environmental protection

description: This essay won or received an honorable mention for The Boothe Prize for excellence in first-year writing. The Boothe Prize recognizes and rewards outstanding expository and argumentative writing by undergraduate students in first-year classes that satisfy the WR 1 requirement. In each award-winning essay, student writers demonstrate clarity of argument, excellent integration of research-based evidence, and compelling prose style. 
This essay analyzes the art produced by the water protectors at the Standing Rock protest and identifies three transformative effects of the art at Standing Rock. Art remade the land of Standing Rock and its protest camp from a landscape of battle to one of liberation. In doing so, it transformed a confined colonial geography into a
new global geography based on indigenous Lakota land ethic. Lastly, art brought together past and future, effectively telescoping time, to assert control of the history and write a new story of the land.

description: The Citation File Format (CFF) is a human- and machine-readable - and human-writable - format for CITATION files. These files provide citation metadata for (research and scientific) software. The format aims to support use cases for software citation described in [1]. CFF is serialized in YAML 1.2, and is therefore Unicode-based and cross-language (in terms of both natural language scripts and programming languages). This specification, together with the Unicode standard for characters, aims to provide all the information necessary to understand CFF, and to use (i.e., write) and re-use (i.e., read, validate, convert from) it.

description: The long-term treatment of myasthenia gravis (MG) and impaired productivity related to physical decline incur significant economic burdens on affected populations and society. This study aims to evaluate the costs of MG in China from a societal perspective and to identify the cost-driving factors. A web-based survey was conducted on 1020 MG patients recruited through a national registry system in China. Respondents reported their socio-demographic and disease-related information and annual expenses related to MG under direct medical and non-medical costs. Indirect costs were estimated among 268 working respondents based on hours of missed work and their annual income. Generalized linear models were used to identify factors associated with different categories of costs. Among all respondents, the median annual direct medical cost was US$2219.0, with a median of $1860.2 contributed by medical costs and a median of $248.2 by non-medical costs. Higher education, unemployment, hospitalization, use of mechanical ventilation, and use of multiple medications were significant driving factors of direct medical and non-medical costs. Among respondents who are at least part-time employed, the indirect costs were generally minimal. Older age, physical burden of disease, and use of multiple medications were significant predictors of higher income loss. Population with MG in China reported heavy economic burdens related to medication. Disease severity is a major driving factor of both direct and indirect costs. Targeted policies are needed to alleviate the financial burden of MG on patients and society at large.

description: Letermovir (LET) is effective for preventing cytomegalovirus infection (CMVi) and CMV disease in patients after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT). However, clinically significant (cs)-CMVi can occur after LET cessation. We retrospectively evaluated the clinical burden of late-onset cs-CMVi in patients who had received LET following allo-HSCT in Japan. The Japan Medical Data Center health insurance claims database was interrogated for adult patients who had received LET ≤100 days after allo-HSCT (May 28, 2018, to December 31, 2022). Cohorts 1 and 2 (primary analyses) comprised cs-CMVi–positive and –negative patients, respectively, followed for ≥180 days after the first cs-CMVi–related claim; Cohorts 3 and 4 (exploratory analysis) included patients meeting Cohort 1 or 2 criteria, respectively, but without follow-up duration limitation. Data for 155 patients (Cohort 1, n = 47; Cohort 2, n = 108) were analyzed. cs-CMVi rates were higher in patients at high (n = 72) versus low risk (n = 83) of CMVi (43.4% vs 15.3%; p = 0.0003), with no difference in frequency of CMV disease. In Cohort 1, median time from 100 days post-transplantation to first cs-CMVi was 35.0 days. Rates of hospital admissions were higher in Cohort 1 versus Cohort 2 (p = 0.0061), and mean duration of anti-CMV drug prescription was longer in high- versus low-risk patients (p = 0.0024). New-onset graft-versus-host disease occurred ≥101 days post-transplantation in three patients (all Cohort 1). This study demonstrates the great burden of late-onset cs-CMVi in patients after allo-HSCT. Extended LET prophylaxis beyond 100 days post-transplant may benefit especially those at high risk of cs-CMVi.

description: As Machine learning (ML) and Artificial intelligence (AI) are becoming increasingly prevalent in high-stake decision-making, fairness has emerged as a critical societal issue. Individuals belonging to diverse groups receive different algorithmic outcomes largely due to the inherent errors and biases in the underlying training data, thus resulting in violations of group fairness or bias.  This study investigates the problem of resolving group fairness by detecting mislabeled data and flipping the label instances in the training data. Four solutions are proposed to obtain an ordering in which the labels of training data instances should be flipped to reduce the bias in predictions of a model trained over the modified data. Through experimental evaluation, we showcase the effectiveness of repairing mislabeled data using mislabel detection techniques to improve the fairness of machine learning models.

description: The global burden of HFpEF is high and, despite developments in available therapies, patient outcomes have not improved significantly. This study aimed to explore the optimal approaches to the diagnosis and treatment of patients with HFpEF and to develop recommendations on how guideline directed medical therapy can be introduced in a more equitable and universal manner. Using a modified Delphi methodology led by an independent facilitator, a steering group of healthcare practitioners with experience of managing HFpEF identified 41 Likert scale statements across five main domains of focus. This generated an online survey distributed by a third-party provider using a convenience sampling approach to HCPs with experience managing patients with HFpEF. A total of 213 responses were analyzed with 35/41 statements attaining very strong (≥90%) agreement, 4/41 strong (≥75%) agreement, and 2/41 failing to meet the threshold established for consensus (75%). From these results, a total of 8 recommendations to define the optimal approach to diagnosis and treatment of patients with HFpEF are proposed. The burden of HFpEF is set to increase in the future. The high levels of consensus achieved in this study show that there is willingness to implement change and improve patient outcomes for those with this condition. A series of actionable recommendations have been developed based on the levels of agreement attained. It is hoped that the putting the current recommendations into practice will support international efforts to improve HFpEF care.

description: Some current prostate cancer (PCa) treatment regimens are known to have adverse effects on bone, for example androgen deprivation therapy (ADT), and on cardiovascular health, for example ADT and antiandrogen therapy. Strengthened recommendations for the practical assessment and management of bone and cardiovascular health in men with PCa are needed. This review aims to provide practical guidance for healthcare providers along the continuum of patient care on the management of bone and cardiovascular health in men with PCa undergoing ADT and antiandrogen therapy based on real-world evidence. Evidence was identified by searching PubMed for publications that reported the effects of PCa treatment on bone or cardiovascular health in a real-world setting and were published between January 2017 and August 2023. Review articles were excluded. The evidence identified indicates that ADT decreases bone mineral density (BMD) and increases the risk of osteoporosis and fractures. Bone-protecting agents (BPAs) are effective at improving bone health in patients undergoing ADT and antiandrogen therapy at all stages of the PCa pathway. Despite this, the use and timing of initiation of BPAs are variable. Furthermore, real-world studies have confirmed an association between ADT and cardiovascular risk. As survival outcomes improve, maintenance of bone and cardiovascular health is increasingly important in men with PCa. Risk is a continuous variable that must be assessed throughout the continuum of PCa treatment. Therefore, all men starting ADT should be assessed for bone and cardiovascular risk. Lifestyle adjustments, dietary supplementation and pharmacological intervention may be advised.

description: The GLP-1 receptor-based agonists (GLP-1RAs) and SGLT2 inhibitors (SGLT2i) are major twenty first century breakthroughs in diabetes and obesity medicine but there are important safety considerations regarding the perioperative and periprocedural management of individuals who are treated with these agents. GLP-1RAs have been linked to an increased risk of retained gastric contents and pulmonary aspiration while SGLT2i can be associated with diabetic ketoacidosis. This manuscript provides a narrative review of the available evidence for perioperative and periprocedural risks in people prescribed GLP-1RAs and SGLT2i. The authors provide expert opinion-driven recommendations and algorithms on how to safely manage GLP-1RAs and SGLT2i under perioperative/periprocedural settings.

description: Contraceptive use and associated adverse effects are underreported in the Middle East. This study aimed to investigate contraceptive use and reported side effects in five Middle Eastern countries. This study, conducted over eight weeks in the UAE, Egypt, Jordan, Syria, and Iraq, utilized an online closed-ended structured questionnaire to extract the study information. Reproductive-age women were surveyed about hormonal and non-hormonal contraceptive usage practices, frequency, types, and severity of contraceptive-associated side effects. Logistic regression analysis was utilized to determine the predictors of the occurrence of side effects associated with contraceptive use. The prevalence of contraceptive use was 81.2% (1069/1317). The most common contraceptive methods were combined oral contraceptive pills (46.6%, 511/1069), mini pills (15.4%, 169/1069), and hormonal loops (13.8%, 151/1069). The prevalence of contraceptive-associated side effects was 41.9% (448/1069). The commonly reported mild-to-moderate side effects were irregular menstrual bleeding (87.9%), headaches (88.2%), and mood changes (93.5%). Interestingly, the participants living in Egypt (AOR: 14.58, 95% CI: 4.67–45.53, p = 0.012) and Iraq (AOR: 25.71, 95% CI: 9.93–66.60, p = 0.001) had greater odds of developing contraceptive-related side effects than did their counterparts. Breastfeeding (AOR: 0.43, 95% CI: 0.20–0.92, p = 0.03), hypertension (AOR: 0.50, 95% CI: 0.26–0.99, p = 0.047), and smoking (AOR: 0.43, 95% CI: 0.20–0.90, p = 0.027) status reduced the risk of side effects. Surprisingly, healthcare follow-ups significantly increased the risk of side effects among contraceptive users (AOR: 3.48, 95% CI: 2.03–5.97; p = 0.001). Many contraceptive users reported experiencing side effects, which are predominantly mild to moderate. This underscores the need for improved patient education and follow-up, especially in Egypt and Iraq.
