Bayesian disease-mapping models are widely used in small-area epidemiology to account for spatial correlation and stabilize estimates through spatial smoothing. In contrast, difference-in-differences (DID) methods-commonly used to estimate treatment effects from observational panel data-typically ignore spatial dependence. This paper integrates disease mapping models into an imputation-based DID framework to address spatially structured residual variation and improve precision in small-area evaluations.

Overdispersion is a common phenomenon in genetic data, such as gene expression count data. In genetic association studies, it is important to investigate the association between a gene expression and a set of genetic variants from a pathway. However, existing approaches for pathway analysis are primarily designed for continuous and binary outcomes and are not applicable to overdispersed count data.

Pretraining plays a pivotal role in acquiring generalized knowledge from large-scale data, achieving remarkable successes as evidenced by large models in CV and NLP. However, progress in the graph domain remains limited due to fundamental challenges represented by feature heterogeneity and structural heterogeneity. Recent efforts have been made to address feature heterogeneity via Large Language Models (LLMs) on text-attributed graphs (TAGs) by generating fixed-length text representations as node features.

Motivation: Heavy usage of synthetic nitrogen fertilizers to satisfy the increasing demands for food has led to severe environmental impacts like decreasing crop yields and eutrophication. One promising alternative is using nitrogen-fixing microorganisms as biofertilizers, which use the nitrogenase enzyme. This could also be achieved by expressing a functional nitrogenase enzyme in the cells of the cereal crops.

Background: Olfactory training (OT) has been proposed as a non-pharmacological intervention to improve cognitive functions and depressive symptomatology, but evidence remains fragmented.
Methods: In this study, we conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis of randomised controlled trials (RCTs) comparing OT versus control in middle-aged and elderly adults. Four databases (PubMed, Cochrane Library, Web of Science, Embase) were systematically searched from database inception through June 2025.
