A high polygenic risk score is associated with SSA/SSB antibody positivity and early onset in primary Sjögren's disease.

Objectives: To calculate a polygenic risk score (PRS) based on single nucleotide variants (SNVs) previously associated with primary Sjögren's disease (SjD) with genome-wide significance, and determine the genetic risk for SjD stratified by antibodies, sex and age at diagnosis.

Methods: Patients with SjD (n = 1065) were genotyped using Illumina OmniExpressExome chip. Control genotype data were available (n = 7742).

Effectiveness and cost-effectiveness of a structured integrated post-pulmonary embolism follow-up care model (Attend-PE): a rationale and protocol for a multicentre clinical pre-post study.

Introduction: Patients with pulmonary embolism (PE) experience impaired functional ability and reduced quality of life long after discharge from the hospital. However, there are no structured follow-up programmes in Denmark for these patients, and there is considerable variation in practice patterns of post-PE management. No studies have investigated the effectiveness of structured follow-up care models in patients with PE.

Collective movement increases initial accuracy and path efficiency in talitrid amphipod orientation.

Talitrid amphipods are an extensively studied system for navigation due to their robust ability to navigate back to the optimal burrowing zone after foraging and could be a model system in which to study the impacts of collective behaviour on short-distance navigation and orientation. We investigated whether talitrid amphipods () differ in their orientation abilities when released individually versus in a group. When released individually, the amphipods took longer to start moving ( < 0.
