We congratulate the authors for the new meta-analysis model that accounts for different outcomes. We discuss the modeling choice and the Bayesian setting, specifically, we point out the connection between the Bayesian hierarchical model and a mixed-effect model formulation to subsequently discuss possible future method extensions.

Leveraging external data information to supplement randomized clinical trials has been a popular topic in recent years, especially for medical device and drug discovery. In rare diseases, it is very challenging to recruit patients and run a large-scale randomized trial. To take advantage of real-world data from historical trials on the same disease, we can run a small hybrid trial and borrow historical controls to increase the power.

January 2025
Pediatrics Department, Hospital of Chengdu University of Traditional Chinese Medicine, Chengdu, Sichuan, China.
Background: With genetics thought to explain a portion of the overall risk of type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM), environmental risk factors in early life have been proposed. Previous studies on the incidence of T1DM in children or adolescents by gestational age at birth have yielded inconsistent results.
Objectives: To clarify the association between gestational age at birth and T1DM in childhood/adolescence and to offer evidence-based support for the prevention or screening of T1DM.
Long-term trends in the burden of pulmonary arterial hypertension in China and worldwide: new insights based on GBD 2021.
Front Med (Lausanne)
January 2025
Department of Hematology, Sun Yat-sen Memorial Hospital, Sun Yat-sen University, Guangzhou, China.
Background: Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) poses a significant health challenge globally, with China experiencing a notable increase in its burden. Understanding the trends and factors contributing to PAH is crucial for developing effective public health strategies.
Methods: This study utilized data from the Global Burden of Disease (GBD) 2021 database to estimate the burden of PAH in China and worldwide from 1990 to 2021.
