Let P_n(x) = Sum_{k=0..n} (T(n,k)/A223550(n,k))*x^k be the Boros-Moll polynomial. It follows from the theory in Comtet (1967, pp. 81-83 and 85-86) that the polynomial Q_n(x) = 2^n*n!*P_n(x) has integer coefficients and satisfies the recurrence (x-1)*Q_n(x) = 2*(2*n - 1)*(x^2 - 2)*Q_{n-1}(x) + (16*(n-1)^2 - 1)*(x + 1)*Q_{n-2}(x).
We have integral_{y = 0..infinity} dy/(y^4 + 2*x*y + 1)^(n + 1) = Pi * P_n(x)/(2^(n + (3/2)) * (x + 1)^(n + (1/2))) = Pi * Q_n(x)/(2^(2*n + (3/2)) * n! * (x + 1)^(n + (1/2))) for x > -1 and n integer >= 0.
It also follows from the theory in Comtet (1967, pp. 81-83) that g(t) = (sqrt(x + sqrt(x^2 - 1 + t)) - sqrt(x - sqrt(x^2 - 1 + t))) / sqrt((1 - t) * (x^2 - 1 + t)) = Sum_{n >= 0} t^n * P_n(x)/(2^(n - (1/2)) * (x + 1)^(n + (1/2))) for x >= 1 and 0 <= t < 1.
From Comtet's result, we get g(t)^2 = 2*(x - sqrt(1-t))/((1-t) * (x^2 - 1 + t)) = 2/((1-t) * (x + sqrt(1-t))) = Sum_{n >= 0} (Sum_{k=0..n} P_k(x) * P_{n-k}(x)) / (2^(n-1) * (x+1)^(n+1)) * t^n for 0 <= t < 1 and x > 1. (End)

FORMULA
T(n,k)/A223550(n,k) = 2^(-2*n)*Sum_{j=k..n} 2^j*binomial(2*n - 2*j, n - j)*binomial(n + j, j)*binomial(j, k) = 2^(-2*n)*A067001(n,n-k) for n >= 0 and k = 0..n.
P_n(x) = Sum_{k=0..n} (T(n, k)/A223550(n,k))*x^k = ((2*n)!/4^n/(n!)^2)*2F1([-n, n + 1], [1/2 - n], (x + 1)/2).
From Petros Hadjicostas, May 22 2020: (Start)
Recurrence for the polynomial: 4*n*(n - 1)*(x - 1)*P_n(x) = 4*(2*n - 1)*(n - 1)*(x^2 - 2)*P_{n-1}(x) + (16*(n - 1)^2 - 1)*(x + 1)*P_{n-2}(x).
O.g.f. for P_n(x): sqrt((x + 1)/(1 - 2*(x + 1)*w)/(x + sqrt(1 - 2*(x + 1)*w))). [It follows from Comtet's theory and my comments.]
P_n(1) = Sum_{k=0..n} T(n,k)/A223550(n,k) = A334907(n)/(2^n*n!). (End)
EXAMPLE
P_3(x) = 77/16 + 43*x/4 + 35*x^2/4 + 5*x^3/2.
As a result, integral_{y = 0..infinity} dy/(y^4 + 2*x*y + 1)^4 = Pi * P_3(x)/(2^(3 + (3/2)) * (x + 1)^(3 + (1/2))) = Pi * (40*x^3 + 140*x^2 + 172*x + 77)/(32 * sqrt(2*(x + 1)^7)) for x > -1. - Petros Hadjicostas, May 22 2020
