A particle with internal unobserved states diffusing in a force field will generally display effective advection-diffusion. The drift velocity is proportional to the mobility averaged over the internal states, or effective mobility, while the effective diffusion has two terms. One is of the equilibrium type and satisfies an Einstein relation with the effective mobility while the other is quadratic in the applied force. In this contribution we present two new methods to obtain these results, on the one hand using large deviation techniques and on the other by a multiple-scale analysis, and compare the two. We consider both systems with discrete internal states and continuous internal states. We show that the auxiliary equations in the multiple-scale analysis can also be derived in second-order perturbation theory in a large deviation theory of a generating function (discrete internal states) or generating functional (continuous internal states). We discuss that measuring the two components of the effective diffusion give a way to determine kinetic rates from only first and second moments of the displacement in steady state.

Rationale: Wildlife scientists are quantifying steroid hormones in a growing number of tissues and employing novel methods that must undergo validation before application. This study tested the accuracy and precision of liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) methods for use on blubber samples from short-finned pilot whales (Globicephala macrorhynchus). We expanded upon a method for corticosteroid quantification by adding analytes and optimizing internal standard (IS) application.

Red cell distribution width (RDW) quantifies the degree of variation in erythrocyte size, is identified as a potential marker of adverse cardiovascular events, and may be a surrogate marker for assessing cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk in low-resource settings. We evaluated RDW as a predictor of CVD risk compared to the World Health Organization (WHO) CVD risk score among adults with hypertension attending primary healthcare centers (PHCs) in Ghana and Nigeria. Adults with hypertension attending selected PHCs in Ghana and Nigeria participated in a cross-sectional study.

Background: 'Standard of care' therapies for adult acute myeloid leukemia (AML) have yielded 5-year overall survival (OS) rates of 30%-45 %. Risk stratification and novel targeted therapies have improved 5-year OS rates to >75 % for certain groups in specialized centers.
Patients And Methods: This is a retrospective cohort analysis of outcomes in patients ≥18 years with newly diagnosed AML treated between 2005 and 2019 in the Harris Health County, Safety-Net Hospital System in Houston, TX.

Background: Utilization of metabolic and bariatric surgery has increased significantly over the last 2decades, yet barriers to access remain.
Objectives: This study aimed to 1) define rates of metabolic and bariatric surgery utilization for qualifying adults in Illinois and 2) describe patient characteristics associated with undergoing surgery at Illinois hospitals with low metabolic and bariatric surgery volume.
Setting: Metabolic and bariatric surgery at all nonfederal Illinois hospitals was included.

Purpose: To develop a Chinese version of the 8-item Contact Lens Dry Eye Questionnaire (CLDEQ-8) with cross-cultural adaption and clinical validation among soft contact lens wearers (SCL) in China.
Methods: The translation and adaptation of the Chinese CLDEQ-8 (C-CLDEQ-8) followed a rigorous methodological process based on cross-cultural research guidelines consisting of three main phases: 1) forward and backward translation of original CLDEQ-8 into Chinese, 2) cross-cultural adaptation performed by medical advising committee, and 3) clinical validation and repeatability test of the translated questionnaire on Chinese SCL wearers. Rasch analysis was also performed to investigate the psychometric properties of C-CLDEQ-8.
