Efficacy of cannabinoids for the prophylaxis of chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting—a systematic review and meta-analysis by Chow, R, Basu, A, Kaur, J, Hui, D, Im, J, Prsic, E, Boldt, G, Lock, M, Eng, L, Ng, TL, Zimmermann, C, Scotte, F

“…However, there was no difference between cannabinoid and active treatment alternatives (most using dated single-agent regimens) for any outcomes. A recent phase II/III trial demonstrated superior efficacy of THC:CBD for secondary prevention of CINV when used as adjunctive therapy alongside modern antiemetic regimens, albeit mostly without olanzapine. …”

Estimating evolutionary and demographic parameters via ARG-derived IBD by Huang, Z, Kelleher, J, Chan, Y, Balding, D

“…Inference of evolutionary and demographic parameters from a sample of genome sequences often proceeds by first inferring identical-by-descent (IBD) genome segments. By exploiting efficient data encoding based on the ancestral recombination graph (ARG), we obtain three major advantages over current approaches: (i) no need to impose a length threshold on IBD segments, (ii) IBD can be defined without the hard-to-verify requirement of no recombination, and (iii) computation time can be reduced with little loss of statistical efficiency using only the IBD segments from a set of sequence pairs that scales linearly with sample size. …”

From private entrepreneurship to state monopoly: contracting Swiss soldiers for Dutch Service under Ancien Régime Fiscal- Military Practices (1693–1829) by Depreter, M

“…This contribution examines Dutch contracting practices to hire Swiss troops during the Ancien Régime, from the first contracts directly negotiated in the Protestant cantons by Petrus Valckenier (1693-1694) during the Nine Years’ War, seizing opportunities arisen from Louis XIV’s revocation of the Edict of Nantes (1685) after a period during which the Dutch seem to have relied on uncertain access to Swiss manpower through French intercession, up to the end of a short-lived revival of Swiss foreign regiments in the newly-instated Kingdom of the Netherlands (1814-1829). …”
