Mica is a server application used to create data web portals for large-scale epidemiological studies or multiple-study consortia. Mica helps studies to provide scientifically robust data visibility and web presence without significant information technology effort. Mica provides a structured description of consortia, studies, annotated and searchable data dictionaries, and data access request management. This Mica client allows to perform data extraction for reporting purposes.

Interactions between different biological entities are crucial for the function of biological systems. In such networks, nodes represent biological elements, such as genes, proteins and microbes, and their interactions can be defined by edges, which can be either binary or weighted. The dysregulation of these networks can be associated with different clinical conditions such as diseases and response to treatments. However, such variations often occur locally and do not concern the whole network. To capture local variations of such networks, we propose multiplex network differential analysis (MNDA). MNDA allows to quantify the variations in the local neighborhood of each node (e.g. gene) between the two given clinical states, and to test for statistical significance of such variation.

Given an image of a formula (typeset or handwritten) this package provides calls to the Mathpix service to produce the LaTeX code which should generate that image, and pastes it into a (e.g. an rmarkdown') document. See <https://docs.mathpix.com/> for full details. Mathpix is an external service and use of the API is subject to their terms and conditions.

Fit growth curves to various known microbial growth models automatically to estimate growth parameters. Growth curves can be plotted with their uncertainty band. Growth models are: modified Gompertz model (Zwietering et al. (1990) <doi:10.1128/aem.56.6.1875-1881.1990>), Baranyi model (Baranyi and Roberts (1994) <doi:10.1016/0168-1605%2894%2990157-0>), Rosso model (Rosso et al. (1993) <doi:10.1006/jtbi.1993.1099>) and linear model (Dantigny (2005) <doi:10.1016/j.ijfoodmicro.2004.10.013>).

This package implements several methods to meta-analyze studies that report the sample median of the outcome. The methods described by McGrath et al. (2019) <doi:10.1002/sim.8013>, Ozturk and Balakrishnan (2020) <doi:10.1002/sim.8738>, and McGrath et al. (2020a) <doi:10.1002/bimj.201900036> can be applied to directly meta-analyze the median or difference of medians between groups. Additionally, a number of methods (e.g., McGrath et al. (2020b) <doi:10.1177/0962280219889080>, Cai et al. (2021) <doi:10.1177/09622802211047348>, and McGrath et al. (2023) <doi:10.1177/09622802221139233>) are implemented to estimate study-specific (difference of) means and their standard errors in order to estimate the pooled (difference of) means. Methods for meta-analyzing median survival times (McGrath et al. (2025) <doi:10.48550/arXiv.2503.03065>) are also implemented. See McGrath et al. (2024) <doi:10.1002/jrsm.1686> for a detailed guide on using the package.

This package implements three families of parsimonious hidden Markov models (HMMs) for matrix-variate longitudinal data using the Expectation-Conditional Maximization (ECM) algorithm. The package supports matrix-variate normal, t, and contaminated normal distributions as emission distributions. For each hidden state, parsimony is achieved through the eigen-decomposition of the covariance matrices associated with the emission distribution. This approach results in a comprehensive set of 98 parsimonious HMMs for each type of emission distribution. Atypical matrix detection is also supported, utilizing the fitted (heavy-tailed) models.

Background - Traditional gene set enrichment analyses are typically limited to a few ontologies and do not account for the interdependence of gene sets or terms, resulting in overcorrected p-values. To address these challenges, we introduce mulea, an R package offering comprehensive overrepresentation and functional enrichment analysis. Results - mulea employs a progressive empirical false discovery rate (eFDR) method, specifically designed for interconnected biological data, to accurately identify significant terms within diverse ontologies. mulea expands beyond traditional tools by incorporating a wide range of ontologies, encompassing Gene Ontology, pathways, regulatory elements, genomic locations, and protein domains. This flexibility enables researchers to tailor enrichment analysis to their specific questions, such as identifying enriched transcriptional regulators in gene expression data or overrepresented protein domains in protein sets. To facilitate seamless analysis, mulea provides gene sets (in standardised GMT format) for 27 model organisms, covering 22 ontology types from 16 databases and various identifiers resulting in almost 900 files. Additionally, the muleaData ExperimentData Bioconductor package simplifies access to these pre-defined ontologies. Finally, mulea's architecture allows for easy integration of user-defined ontologies, or GMT files from external sources (e.g., MSigDB or Enrichr), expanding its applicability across diverse research areas. Conclusions - mulea is distributed as a CRAN R package. It offers researchers a powerful and flexible toolkit for functional enrichment analysis, addressing limitations of traditional tools with its progressive eFDR and by supporting a variety of ontologies. Overall, mulea fosters the exploration of diverse biological questions across various model organisms.

Function and support for medication and dosing information extraction from free-text clinical notes. Medication entities for the basic medExtractR implementation that can be extracted include drug name, strength, dose amount, dose, frequency, intake time, dose change, and time of last dose. The basic medExtractR is outlined in Weeks, Beck, McNeer, Williams, Bejan, Denny, Choi (2020) <doi: 10.1093/jamia/ocz207>. The extended medExtractR_tapering implementation is intended to extract dosing information for more tapering schedules, which are far more complex. The tapering extension allows for the extraction of additional entities including dispense amount, refills, dose schedule, time keyword, transition, and preposition.
