Multi-omics investigation of metabolomic and microbial features in bacterial vaginosis

Hana Shabana, Faruk Dube, Emilia Lahtinen, Emelie Bergman Røthe, Lars Engstrand, Luisa Warchavchik Hugerth, Ina Schuppe-Koistinen, Kenny A. Rodriguez-Wallberg

Abstract Bacterial vaginosis (BV) affects 23–29% of reproductive-age women globally and recurs in over half of cases within 6 months, yet the coordinated metabolic and genomic mechanisms underlying it remain incompletely understood. In this cross-sectional study of 111 Swedish women (29 with BV, 82 controls), we combined shotgun metagenomics, targeted liquid chromatography–mass spectrometry metabolomics, and Gardnerella metagenome-assembled genome (MAG) analysis, integrating these layers with supervised (DIABLO) an …

Alcohol use, vision therapy, children, mood … what predicts post-traumatic growth after concussion in women?

Martina Anto-Ocrah, Katherine Kenyon, Celestin Niyomugabo, Michael Chen, Jane Liebschutz, Katherine Snedaker

Background Post-traumatic growth (PTG) refers to positive psychological change following a traumatic or life-altering event. Concussion, also known as mild traumatic brain injury(mTBI), results from a physical trauma that can lead to psychological outcomes such as post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) as well as PTG. Research indicates that PTG and PTSD occur at similar rates among individuals who have experienced concussion, consistent with findings across other trauma-exposed populations. While women often experi …

Automated scoring of adult ego development from sentence completions: interpretable maturity indicators derived by evolutionary prompt optimization

Tamas Madl, Susanne R. Cook-Greuter

Introduction Ego Development Theory (EDT) describes systematic changes in how adults make meaning, but its principal measure, the Sentence Completion Test (SCT), requires resource-intensive expert scoring. Methods We developed an automated scoring approach in which an evolutionary algorithm derives a small set of interpretable maturity indicators, each scored from sentence-completion responses by a domain-fine-tuned language model; a classifier trained on the resulting scores then predicts developmental stage.

A Model-Based Public-Payer Investment Appraisal of a National Home Hemodialysis Program in Greece: A Net Present Value Analysis

Vasileios Zavvos, John Fanourgiakis, Michael A. Talias, Christos Iatrou, Christos Ntais

Background: In-center hemodialysis is the dominant kidney replacement therapy modality in Greece and generates substantial recurring expenditure for the public payer. Home hemodialysis is not currently implemented at national scale, but it may reduce long-term public expenditure if early investment in training capacity, equipment and home support is recovered over time. Objective: To evaluate, from the Greek public-payer perspective, the discounted budget impact and net present value (NPV) of implementing a nationa …
