Background: Hospital-acquired deconditioning is a term used in clinical practice, describing a loss of physical and/or cognitive function associated with hospitalisation.

Effects of high-intensity laser therapy in patients with De Quervain's tenosynovitis: A systematic review and meta-analysis.

January 2025
Physiotherapeutic Resources Research Laboratory, Department of Physical Therapy, Federal University of São Carlos (UFSCar), São Paulo, Brazil; Department of Rehabilitation Sciences, University of Hartford, West Hartford, CT, USA.
Background: De Quervain's tenosynovitis (QT) is common among individuals performing repetitive manual tasks and significantly affects daily activities due to pain. While traditional treatments often provide limited relief, high-intensity laser therapy (HILT) shows as a potential analgesic resource.
Purpose: This systematic review aimed to evaluate the analgesic effects of HILT in patients with QT.
FlexLMM: a nextflow linear mixed model framework for GWAS.
Bioinformatics
January 2025
European Molecular Biology Laboratory, European Bioinformatics Institute (EMBL-EBI), Cambridge, CB10 1SD, United Kingdom.
Summary: Linear mixed models are a commonly used statistical approach in genome-wide association studies when population structure is present. However, naive permutations of the phenotype to empirically estimate the null distribution of a statistic of interest are not appropriate in the presence of population structure or covariates. This is because the samples are not exchangeable with each other under the null hypothesis, and because permuting the phenotypes breaks the relationship among those and eventual covariates.
