No full textThe workshop aims to facilitate interactions and debate between academic and professional players in the media and motion picture industries, as related to the common theme of colour. Chroma is born from the idea that the colour images in media and cinema need solid interdisciplinary foundations, tackling with both historical declinations as well as the ever increasing scientific and technological aspects.
From its very inception, cinema and modern media history was bound to colour production and reproduction techniques: from the hand-tinting of early photographs and films, up to current digital grading systems, a film’s colour ‘look’ never fails to be the key element for both field professionals and spectators to be focusing on. Development of technologies for colour correction and management with increasing degrees of digital control –which is topic to some of the workshop talks– is driving a new wave of colour’s expressive potential, allowing cinematographers to carve the light out of single details from each video frame, just alike some colouration techniques of early cinema. Innovation brings new issues related to the technologies running behind the scenes which have been influencing the motion picture industry for a quite while: from on-set shooting methodologies, to post-production infrastructures and colour pipelines, up to theatrical distribution formats.
Besides, colour is now becoming more of a frequent topic in international film and media studies’ debates as witnessed on several, recent international congresses and by the higher number of books and papers devoted to the subject.
Within this framework, Chroma is going to showcase a variegated roster of contributions on history, language and technology of colour. Theoretical and practical discussions will be encouraged, about colour in both contemporary and early moving pictures

Translating trial results into interpretable risk estimates: Systematic analysis of cardiorenal outcome trials of glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists and sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitors
No full textBackground and aims: In a randomised controlled trial (RCT), the between-arm difference in the average probability of an event per unit of time (i.e., yearly incidence risk difference, YIRD) is an easy-to-interpret treatment effect metric. We aimed to quantify the YIRD in cardiorenal RCTs of GLP-1RAs or SGLT-2is. Methods and results: We digitally searched for RCTs published up to March 1st, 2023, including subjects with type 2 diabetes randomised to GLP-1RAs or SGLT-2is and investigating cardiorenal outcomes or death. We extracted information from Kaplan-Meier (KM) plots to obtain time-to-event individual data and estimate within-arm yearly incidence risk and YIRD. Data from 19 RCTs (28 kM plots) were analysed: comparing treatment to placebo, in GLP-1RA RCTs the YIRD ranged from 0.2 % (95 % CI: −0.7 %, 1.1 %) to −1.9 % (−3.1, −0.7), for primary outcome; and from −0.2 % (−0.5, 0.2) to −0.4 % (−0.7 %, −0.0 %), for mortality. With the exception of SOLOIST-WHF (YIRD 11.9 % for primary outcome), corresponding estimates in SGLT-2is RCTs were: from −0.1 % (−0.4, 0.1) to −5.0 % (−7.7, −2.6), for primary outcome; and from −0.1 % (−0.2, 0.1) to −1.9 % (−4.4 %, 0.6 %), for mortality. Conclusion: The YIRD metric complements other relative treatment effect estimates and helps quantify the absolute benefit of GLP-1RAs and SGLT-2is
