Assessment of a colposcopic scoring system (Swedescore) to reduce the number of cervical biopsies: a protocol for a clinical multicentre non-randomised intervention study in Denmark.

Introduction: Colposcopy is a standard procedure for evaluating cervical abnormalities and collecting cervical biopsies. The procedure is associated with intra- and inter-observer variation. A colposcopic scoring system, Swedescore, has been designed to standardise and facilitate colposcopy training.

FDA Approval Summary: Olutasidenib for Adult Patients with Relapsed or Refractory Acute Myeloid Leukemia with an Isocitrate Dehydrogenase-1 Mutation.

On December 1st, 2022, the FDA approved the new molecular entity olutasidenib (Rezlidhia: Rigel Pharmaceuticals), a small-molecule inhibitor of isocitrate dehydrogenase-1 (IDH1), for the treatment of adult patients with relapsed or refractory acute myeloid leukemia (R/R AML) with a susceptible IDH1 mutation as detected by an FDA-approved test. The efficacy of olutasidenib was established based on complete remission (CR) + CR with partial hematological recovery (CRh) rate, duration of CR + CRh, and conversion of transfusion dependence (TD) to transfusion independence (TI) in Study 2102-HEM-101. In the pivotal trial, 147 adult patients treated with 150mg twice daily (BID) of olutasidenib were evaluable for efficacy.

People make mistakes: Obtaining accurate ground truth from continuous annotations of subjective constructs.

Accurately representing changes in mental states over time is crucial for understanding their complex dynamics. However, there is little methodological research on the validity and reliability of human-produced continuous-time annotation of these states. We present a psychometric perspective on valid and reliable construct assessment, examine the robustness of interval-scale (e.

Foot shape assessment techniques for orthotic and footwear applications: a methodological literature review.

Introduction: Foot shape assessment is important to characterise the complex shape of a foot, which is in turn essential for accurate design of foot orthoses and footwear, as well as quantification of foot deformities (e.g., hallux valgus).
