TL;DR: The use (and misuse) of GLMMs in ecology and evolution are reviewed, estimation and inference are discussed, and 'best-practice' data analysis procedures for scientists facing this challenge are summarized.
Bortezomib with lenalidomide and dexamethasone versus lenalidomide and dexamethasone alone in patients with newly diagnosed myeloma without intent for immediate autologous stem-cell transplant (SWOG S0777): a randomised, open-label, phase 3 trial

TL;DR: This randomised, open-label, phase 3 trial aimed to study whether the addition of bortezomib to lenalidomide and dexamethasone would improve progression-free survival and provide better response rates in patients with previously untreated multiple myeloma who were not planned for immediate autologous stem-cell transplant.

TL;DR: Reassessment of evidence for management issues related to the care of women with epilepsy (WWE) during pregnancy finds it highly probable that intrauterine first-trimester valproate (VPA) exposure has higher risk of major congenital malformations (MCMs) compared to carbamazepine and possible compared to phenytoin or lamotrigine.

Minimum chi-square, not maximum likelihood!
TL;DR: In this article, it was argued that statistics is a science, not mathematics or philosophy (inference), and as such requires that any claimed attributes of the MLE must be testable by a Monte Carlo experiment.
