LDA score and relative frequency (inlet) of differentially abundant enriched pathways in the control and treatment groups of the Mencía must (A) and wine (B). Bios: biosynthesis; DUA: degradation/utilization/assimilation; GPME: generation of precursor metabolites and energy; MM: macromolecule modification.

Integrated Fertilization with Bagasse Vermicompost Changes the Microbiome of Mencía Must and Wine

July 27, 2022

Grape marc, or bagasse, is a byproduct of wine production that can be vermicomposted and used as organic fertilizer, which improve grape yields and wine quality

Nasopharyngeal metatranscriptome profiles of infants with bronchiolitis and risk of childhood asthma: a multicentre prospective study

July 13, 2022

Our objectives were to identify metatranscriptome profiles of infant bronchiolitis, and to examine relationship with host transcriptome and asthma development.

Orienting Ordered Scaffolds: Complexity and Algorithms

May 26, 2022

We address the problem of orientating ordered scaffolds as an optimization problem based on given weighted orientations of scaffolds and their pairs.

Relationship of abundant microbial species with the risk of higher severity in infants hospitalized for bronchiolitis.

Integrated relationship of nasopharyngeal airway host response and microbiome associates with bronchiolitis severity

August 30, 2022

Bronchiolitis is a leading cause of infant hospitalizations but its immunopathology remains poorly understood.

Distribution of study participants by age and health outcome. (a) colors in all subplots reflect health status of groups as provided in the legend of subplot a. The sample population is not uniform for age ranges, with a higher proportion of older participants falling into the severe group. (b) age has a strong association with health outcomes (p-value = 0.001). (c) BMI is not associated with health outcomes (p-value = 0.1488). For assessing the association of age and gender with the health outcome status,

Metabolite, protein, and tissue dysfunction associated with COVID‑19 disease severity

July 16, 2022

Proteins are direct products of the genome and metabolites are functional products of interactions between the host and other factors.

HAllAgram for block-wise associations.

High-sensitivity pattern discovery in large, paired multiomic datasets

June 27, 2022

We present a novel framework which integrates hierarchical hypothesis testing with FDR correction to reveal linear and non-linear relationships among data.

Chart showing how aspirin affects the relationship between time after hospitalization and probability of survival.

Association of Early Aspirin Use With In-Hospital Mortality in Patients With Moderate COVID-19

March 24, 2022

Prior studies suggest aspirin may be associated with reduced mortality in high-risk patients with COVID-19, but patients with moderate COVID-19 are not studied.
