Modeling Patient-Reported Pain Trajectories with Frequent Minimum and Maximum Scores

The paper introduces a Bayesian beta-binomial mixed-effects model to analyze zero- and one-inflated patient-reported pain scores, showing improved fit and accuracy compared to existing methods.

Exploring Links between Brain Image-Derived Phenotypes and Accelerometer-Measured Physical Activity in the UK Biobank

The paper investigates the association between brain image-derived phenotypes and physical activity using UK Biobank data, finding a strong link between PA and functional connectivity with moderate predictive value for cardiometabolic diseases.

Genome-wide association studies of 27 accelerometry-derived physical activity measurements identifies novel loci and genetic mechanisms

This study identifies 5 novel genetic loci associated with physical activity using 27 accelerometry-derived phenotypes from 88,411 UK Biobank participants.
