TL;DR: In this article, the authors compare different methods to address collinearity, including shrinkage, dimensionality reduction, and constrained optimization, and find that no effect of collincearity was observed on predictive outcomes.

TL;DR: In this article , a systematic literature search was performed to identify all prediction models on fetal and neonatal outcomes in pregnancies with preterm manifestations of placental insufficiency (i.e., gestational hypertension, pre-eclampsia, HELLP-syndrome or fetal growth restriction with its onset before 37 weeks of gestational age).

TL;DR: In this paper , the regeneration-weighted dose to the parotid gland was defined as Dreg PG = Dmean SCR region + r × Dmean non-SCR region, where Dreg is the regeneration weighted dose, Dmean is the mean dose, and r is the weighting factor.

TL;DR: The ‘‘virtual genetic tests’’ to identify patients with causative familial hypercholesterolemia (FH) mutations presented by Pina et al. are essentially three prediction models based on supervised machine learning classifiers, developed in one and externally validated in another independent cohort, which could potentially be employed as alternatives for existing in vitro tests.

TL;DR: In this article , the authors evaluated the effectiveness of progestogen maintenance therapy after an episode of preterm labor (PTL) and found that it might have a modest effect on prolonging the latency time.
