Costs of Reproduction in Breeding Female Mallards: Predation Risk during Incubation Drives Annual Mortality by Todd W. Arnold, Erin A. Roche, James H. Devries, David W. Howerter

“…Mortality risk also varied with calendar date and was highest during periods when large numbers of Mallards were nesting, suggesting that prey-switching behaviors by common predators may exacerbate risks to adults in all breeding stages. …”

Risk of new-onset long COVID following reinfection with SARS-CoV-2: community-based cohort study by Bosworth, ML, Shenhuy, B, Walker, AS, Nafilyan, V, Alwan, NA, O'Hara, ME, Ayoubkhani, D

“…We estimated adjusted odds ratios (aORs) for new-onset long COVID using logistic regression, comparing second to first infections, controlling for sociodemographic characteristics and calendar date of infection, plus vaccination status in participants ≥16 years of age. …”

Risk of hand osteoarthritis in new users of hormone replacement therapy: a nested case-control analysis by Burkard, T, Rauch, M, Spoendlin, J, Prieto-Alhambra, D, Jick, SS, Meier, CR

“…We matched women with incident HOA during follow-up (cases) to osteoarthritisfree controls on age and calendar date (index date, ID), in a ratio of 1:4. We applied conditional logistic regression to calculate odds ratios (OR) with 95 % confidence intervals (CI) of HOA associated with new HRT use compared with non-use overall, and for women with recorded menopause we calculated separate ORs according to the time between menopause and HRT initiation (current users), and the time between HRT cessation and the ID (past users), versus non-users.…”

Avian malaria associations with British mosquitoes by Alves, R, Ricardo Orlando Neto Alves

“…Spatially, variation in adult mosquito abundance was associated with microclimatic and landscape variables such as distances to mosquito breeding sites, microclimate and canopy height; seasonally, variation in mosquito abundance was associated with temperature and rainfall, alongside calendar date. The heterogeneity in mosquito parameters and associations with environmental variables found at a site where avian malaria is endemic highlights the need to anticipate such complexity when trying to understand Plasmodium transmission. …”

The associations of COVID-19 percent positivity rate, relationship quality, and season with daily anxiety and depression in couples living in NYC by Talea Cornelius, Ana M. DiGiovanni, Niall Bolger

“…Dyadic multilevel models estimated the association COVID-19 positivity rate, season (sine and cosine of the calendar date), baseline relationship quality, and all two-and three-way interactions of these variables with daily anxiety and depression. …”

Stopień realizacji zasady odpowiedniego vacatio legis w polskiej praktyce parlamentarnej w latach 2011–2021- wybrane problemy by Małgorzata Stefaniuk

“…These include: insufficiently convincing and too vague justifications for the proposed dates of entry into force for draft laws; insufficient attention to the views of other entities with more knowledge of what periods are needed for the laws to enter into force; adopting too optimistic periods for the entry into force of laws with a calendar date, the late announcement of which results in a shortening of the assumed period of vacatio legis or even a retroactive effect; abuse of the possibility to make changes to the provisions of the act during the adjustment period and use the dates of vacatio legis for the accomplishment of ad hoc political objectives. …”

Effectiveness of the booster dose of inactivated COVID-19 vaccine against Omicron BA.5 infection: a matched cohort study of adult close contacts by Ting Zeng, Yaoqin Lu, Yanji Zhao, Zihao Guo, Shengzhi Sun, Zhidong Teng, Maozai Tian, Jun Wang, Shulin Li, Xucheng Fan, Weiming Wang, Yongli Cai, Gengze Liao, Xiao Liang, Daihai He, Kai Wang, Shi Zhao

“…The cohort of close contacts was matched at a ratio of 1:5 with the fully vaccinated (i.e., 2 doses) and booster vaccinated groups (i.e., 3 doses) according to sex, age strata, calendar date, and contact settings. Multivariate conditional logistic regression models were adopted to estimate the marginal effectiveness of the booster dose against Omicron BA.5 infection after adjusting for confounding variables. …”

Authors' response: Occupation and SARS-CoV-2 infection risk among workers during the first pandemic wave in Germany: potential for bias by Marvin Reuter, Mariann Rigó, Maren Formazin, Falk Liebers, Ute Latza, Stefanie Castell, Karl-Heinz Jöckel, Karin Halina Greiser, Karin B Michels, Gérard Krause, Stefan Albrecht, Ilter Öztürk, Oliver Kuss, Klaus Berger, Benedikt MJ Lampl, Michael Leitzmann, Hajo Zeeb, Karla Romero Starke, Sabine Schipf, Claudia Meinke-Franze, Wolfgang Ahrens, Andreas Seidler, Bianca Klee, Tobias Pischon, Andreas Deckert Andreas Deckert, Börge Schmidt, Rafael Mikolajczyk, André Karch, Barbara Bohn, Hermann Brenner, Bernd Holleczek, Nico Dragano

“…The newspaper article cited by van Tongeren et al is misleading as it refers to a calendar date after our study period. Second, different motivation for testing due to economic hardship in case of a positive test result is an unlikely explanation, because Germany has a universal healthcare system, including paid sick leave and sickness benefits for all workers (3). …”
