Article Abstract

Modern biomedical data collection is generating exponentially more data in a multitude of formats. This flood of complex data poses significant opportunities to discover and understand the critical interplay among such diverse domains as genomics, proteomics, metabolomics, and phenomics, including imaging, biometrics, and clinical data. The Big Data for Discovery Science Center is taking an "-ome to home" approach to discover linkages between these disparate data sources by mining existing databases of proteomic and genomic data, brain images, and clinical assessments. In support of this work, the authors developed new technological capabilities that make it easy for researchers to manage, aggregate, manipulate, integrate, and model large amounts of distributed data. Guided by biological domain expertise, the Center's computational resources and software will reveal relationships and patterns, aiding researchers in identifying biomarkers for the most confounding conditions and diseases, such as Parkinson's and Alzheimer's.

Evaluating Amino Acid Profiles and Blood Gas Concentrations Between Single and Twin Merino Newborn Lambs.

Anim Sci J

January 2025

Davies Livestock Research Centre, School of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, The University of Adelaide, Roseworthy, South Australia, Australia.

As sheep production standards progress, and animals are bred for high production in terms of the number and weight of lambs weaned per ewe, research has identified a difference in the physiology of single lambs compared to multiple born lambs. The current study aimed to report the baseline amino acid (AA) profiles and blood gas concentrations in newborn, Merino single and twin lambs. From 120 days of gestation, 50 single-bearing and 50 twin-bearing, naturally mated Merino ewes were monitored for signs of approaching parturition.

Dupilumab monotherapy in super-elderly patients with bullous pemphigoid: a retrospective study on long-term efficacy and safety in mild to moderate cases.

J Dermatolog Treat

December 2025

Department of Dermatology, Beijing Hospital, National Center of Gerontology, Institute of Geriatric Medicine, Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences, Beijing, China.

Background: Bullous pemphigoid (BP) is a common autoimmune subepidermal bullous disease. Dupilumab, an IL-4/IL-13 inhibitor, represents a novel therapeutic approach for BP, but real-world long-term data in super-elderly patients are limited.

Methods: This retrospective, single-center observational study included super-elderly BP patients (≥80 years) receiving dupilumab monotherapy from September 2022 to September 2024.

Peripheral parenteral nutrition use outside of a dedicated nutrition support service: A descriptive cohort study.

JPEN J Parenter Enteral Nutr

September 2025

Department of Gastroenterology, Austin Health, Heidelberg, Victoria, Australia.

Background: Hospitalized patients may require nutrition support because of inadequate intake or impaired gut function. Enteral nutrition is preferred over parenteral nutrition because of fewer complications and earlier return of gut function. This study describes peripheral parenteral nutrition (PPN) use in an Australian tertiary center, evaluating its indications, incidence of adverse effects, and outcomes without the support of a nutrition support service.

Accelerated failure time (AFT) models offer an attractive alternative to Cox proportional hazards models. AFT models are collapsible and, unlike hazard ratios in proportional hazards models, the acceleration factor-a key effect measure in AFT models-is collapsible, meaning its value remains unchanged when adjusting for additional covariates. In addition, AFT models provide an intuitive interpretation directly on the survival time scale.

Phase I dose escalation trials in oncology generally aim to find the maximum tolerated dose. However, with the advent of molecular-targeted therapies and antibody drug conjugates, dose-limiting toxicities are less frequently observed, giving rise to the concept of optimal biological dose (OBD), which considers both efficacy and toxicity. The estimand framework presented in the addendum of the ICH E9(R1) guidelines strengthens the dialogue between different stakeholders by bringing in greater clarity in the clinical trial objectives and by providing alignment between the targeted estimand under consideration and the statistical analysis methods.
