Patient-physician agreement on function and pain is associated with long-term outcomes in sarcoma: findings from a longitudinal study by Košir, U, van de Wal, D, Husson, O, Zablith, N, Turcotte, RE

“…Purpose: We aimed to describe the level of agreement between patients and physicians on the ratings of daily functioning and pain in a cohort of sarcoma patients and assess how (dis)agreement and its change over time predicted patient-reported outcomes in survivorship. …”

Adding spice to life : the influence of spicy food on group behaviour by Luar, Shu Qi

“…Here, it is examined if shared experiences of pain, operationalized by consumption of spicy food, would enhance social bonding and related outcomes (e.g. in-group bias, cooperation) in a realistic setting, and if extraversion would moderate this relationship. …”

Strategies to control crystal growth of highly ordered rubrene thin films for application in organic photodetectors by Hofmann, A, Wolansky, J, Hambsch, M, Talnack, F, Bittrich, E, Winkler, L, Herzog, M, Zhang, T, Antrack, T, Winkler, LC, Schröder, J, Riede, M, Mannsfeld, SCB, Benduhn, J, Leo, K

“…It is as low as 2.5 × 10−10 A cm−2 at −0.1 V bias, reflected in an overall specific detectivity of 6 × 1011 Jones at zero bias (based on noise measurements) and a high linear dynamic range of 170 dB. …”

In HF, T2D, CKD, or atherosclerotic CVD, SGLT2 inhibitors reduce HF hospitalizations and CV mortality by Zhu, D, Herrington, WG

“…Evaluated SGLT2 inhibitors included dapagliflozin (5 RCTs, n = 36 488), empagliflozin (5 RCTs, n = 29 869), canagliflozin (2 RCTs, n = 14 543), sotagliflozin (2 RCTs, n = 11 806), and ertugliflozin (1 RCT, n = 8246). Overall risk of bias was low for the 15 RCTs (Cochrane Risk of Bias tool).…”

Dynamics of Gradient Flow with Contrastive Learning by Tepe, Cem

“…However, their results don't explain how class collapse can occur without adding an explicit bias. The implicit bias of the gradient descent is a likely candidate to explain this phenomena. …”

Ethical branding in a divided world: how political orientation motivates reactions to marketplace transgressions by Allard, Thomas, McFerran, Brent

“…We also investigate an avenue by which firms can reframe their ethical branding to reduce this politically motivated bias. We discuss this work's implications for moral judgments, marketplace attribute formation, and the branding of ethical goods in a politically divided world.…”
