BACKGROUND:) that underlies the vulnerability to both physical and mental conditions could have important implications for our approach to health assessment and treatment. OBJECTIVE:in children and adolescents. METHODS:This Swedish registry-based cross-sectional study included children and adolescents born between 1996 and 2003 with follow-up until 2013. We extracted data on 25 mental and physical health conditions according to the ICD-10 system. To determine the optimal dimensional structure of these conditions, several competing measurement models were tested, including correlated factors, one factor, various bifactor specifications and bifactor exploratory structural equation modelling (ESEM). FINDINGS/RESULTS:=0.423; ECV=0.130) factors also indicated additional significant unique contributions. CONCLUSIONS:underlying both mental and physical conditions, alongside distinct domain-specific factors. These findings have important implications for clinical practice, providing evidence that suggests the need for more integrated approaches to health assessment and treatment that consider the interconnectedness of mental and physical health.

OBJECTIVE:This individual participant data meta-analysis aimed to investigate the effectiveness of cognitive behavioral therapy with a trauma focus (CBT-TF) for posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD). Furthermore, we examined the effect of moderators on PTSD symptom severity. METHOD/METHODS:This study included randomized controlled trials comparing CBT-TF to an inactive or active comparison group for adults with PTSD. The primary and secondary outcomes were PTSD symptom severity and remission, respectively. Moderators included sociodemographic and clinical variables. RESULTS:Twelve studies compared CBT-TF with inactive (n = 625) and 11 with active comparison conditions (n = 706). The one-stage individual participant data meta-analysis found that CBT-TF was more effective than inactive comparison conditions (β = -0.78; OR = 2.34) and not significantly different from active comparison conditions (β = 0.02; OR = 0.53) in reducing PTSD symptom severity and achieving PTSD remission, respectively. When comparing CBT-TF with inactive treatments, moderator analysis found that divorced participants had greater PTSD symptoms postintervention following CBT-TF than participants who were single, cohabitating, or married receiving CBT-TF, both in the completer (β = 0.93) and full-sample (β = 0.59) analyses. For the active treatment comparison, moderator analysis found that participants taking psychotropic medication had lower PTSD symptoms following CBT-TF than those not taking psychotropic medication in the completer analysis (β = -0.39). CONCLUSION/CONCLUSIONS:Based on our moderator analyses, further research is needed to understand the effect of psychotropic medication on the CBT-TF intervention process. Moreover, divorced participants with PTSD receiving CBT-TF might benefit from enhanced support. (PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2025 APA, all rights reserved).

AIM/UNASSIGNED:(prolonged social isolation), and how they formulate and treat such cases. METHODS/UNASSIGNED:case vignette was sent to psychiatrists of 34 countries around the world. Participants rated for the vignette: frequency of similar cases in one's practicing country; and aspects of formulation, diagnosis, suicide risk, and treatment plan. RESULTS/UNASSIGNED:In total, 344 complete responses from 34 countries were returned. Eight countries/areas had 10 or more respondents: Japan (61), South Korea (54), Nepal (48), Iran (40), Thailand (32), India (23), Hong Kong (12), and UK (10); the remainder were placed in the "others" group (64). Respondents from all countries except Thailand felt that similar cases were seen. Diverse patterns of response were obtained regarding formulation and treatment. Japan, South Korea, and "others" favored psychosocial aspects in the formulation, while Iran, Nepal, and India favored biological factors. Most respondents felt the case could be treated by an outpatient visit, while others preferred hospitalization. Psychotherapy was rated highly as an intervention; Iran, South Korea, and "others" also rated pharmacotherapy highly. CONCLUSION/UNASSIGNED:patients.

BACKGROUND:Freezing of gait (FOG) is a common gait disorder that often accompanies Parkinson's disease (PD). The current understanding of brain functional organization in FOG was built on the assumption that the functional connectivity (FC) of networks is static, but FC changes dynamically over time. We aimed to characterize the dynamic functional connectivity (DFC) in patients with FOG based on high temporal-resolution functional MRI (fMRI). METHODS:Eighty-seven PD patients, including 29 with FOG and 58 without FOG, and 32 healthy controls underwent resting-state fMRI. Spatial independent component analysis and a sliding-window approach were used to estimate DFC. RESULTS:Four patterns of structured FC 'states' were identified: a frequent and sparsely connected network (State I), a less frequent but highly synchronized network (State IV), and two states with opposite connecting directions between the visual network and the sensorimotor network (positively connected in State II, negatively connected in State III). Compared with the non-FOG group, patients with FOG spent significantly less time in State II and more time in State III. The longer dwell time in State III was correlated with more severe FOG symptoms. The fractional window of State III tended to correlate to visual-spatial and executive dysfunction in FOG. Moreover, fewer transitions between brain states and lower variability in local efficiency were observed in FOG, suggesting a relatively 'rigid' brain. CONCLUSIONS:This study highlights how visuomotor network dynamics are related to the presence and severity of FOG in PD patients, which provides new insights into understanding the pathophysiological mechanisms that underly FOG. © 2025 International Parkinson and Movement Disorder Society.

BACKGROUND:Nursing well-being is foundational to the specialties workforce and broader healthcare industry worldwide. Despite frequent reports and descriptions of activities that support nurses' well-being, most reports describe singular activities and programs that lack science-based structures contextualized within academic healthcare systems (AHS) with validated impact. AIMS/OBJECTIVE:To evaluate and synthesize the existing national and international literature on nurse well-being initiatives offered in AHS. METHODS:Over 18 months, an 8-member interprofessional team conducted a scoping review adhering to PRISMA-ScR reporting guidelines. Five databases were searched, and results were screened in a multistep process by researcher pairs. Discrepancies were resolved by a third team member's review. Citations were reviewed uniquely three times to ensure methodological rigor. A final set of 54 articles was extracted for key data elements pertinent to the research question describing setting, population, study design, intervention, and other subsidiary fields. Reviewers additionally analyzed publication quality indicators and trends for additional implications for research and practice. RESULTS:Among the 54 eligible articles, 72% were research and 28% were evidence-based practice, quality improvement, or doctoral dissertations. The concepts studied were psychosocial (e.g., resiliency) and physical (e.g., sleep). The number of instruments used per study ranged from 1 to 11. Thirty percent of studies utilized a framework from various disciplines that included nursing, social and behavioral sciences, and safety science principles. Nurses were included as authors 67% of the time, and 35% received funding from either the public or private sector.

OBJECTIVE:Naturalistic developmental behavioral interventions for children with autism spectrum disorder show evidence for effectiveness for specific social communication targets such as joint attention or engagement. However, combining evidence from different studies and comparing intervention effects across those studies have not been feasible due to lack of a standardized outcome measure of broader social communication skills that can be applied uniformly across trials. This investigation examined the usefulness of the Brief Observation of Social Communication Change (BOSCC) as a common outcome measure of general social communication skills based on secondary analyses of data obtained from previously conducted randomized controlled trials of 3 intervention models, Early Social Intervention (ESI), Early Start Denver Model (ESDM) and Joint Attention Symbolic Play Engagement and Regulation (JASPER). METHOD/METHODS:The subset of datasets from the 3 randomized controlled trials was created to examine differences in the BOSCC scores between intervention and control groups over the course of the interventions. RESULTS:Based on 582 videos from 207 caregiver-child dyads, the BOSCC noted significant differences between intervention vs control groups in broad social communication skills within 2 of the 3 intervention models, which were longer in duration and focused on a broad range of developmental skills. CONCLUSION/CONCLUSIONS:The BOSCC offers the potential to take a uniform measurement approach across different intervention models to capture the effect of intervention on general social communication skills but may not pick up the effects of some brief interventions targeting proximal outcomes.

BACKGROUND:Disordered eating in early adolescence impacts development, with long-term health implications. Minoritised adolescents might be at higher risk of disordered eating due to minority stress, but most research has focused on White, heterosexual, cisgender individuals; less is known about disordered eating among minoritised adolescents. We examined sexual, gender, racial, and ethnic identities in relation to disordered eating in early adolescence. METHOD/METHODS:Using 2-year follow-up data from adolescents ages 10-14 in the Adolescent Brain Cognitive Development Study (N = 9385), we examined associations between sexual, gender, racial, and ethnic identities and past-2 week disordered eating (preoccupation with weight, weight control behaviors, and binge eating). RESULTS:Compared to heterosexual peers, gay/bisexual adolescents had higher odds of all three outcomes (AOR 1.90-3.32); those "questioning" their sexual identity had higher odds of preoccupation with weight (AOR 1.82) and binge eating (AOR 2.53). Compared to cisgender adolescents, transgender adolescents had higher odds of binge eating (AOR 2.62); those "questioning" their gender identity had higher odds of preoccupation with weight (AOR 2.45). Adolescents whose racial identity was categorised as "Another" had higher odds of preoccupation with weight (AOR 1.46) and weight control behaviors (AOR 1.58) compared to White adolescents. Finally, Hispanic adolescents had higher odds of all disordered eating outcomes than non-Hispanic adolescents (AOR 1.25-1.59). DISCUSSION/CONCLUSIONS:This study is among the first to reveal disparities in disordered eating among minoritised early adolescents. Further examination of these disparities can inform future interventions. Healthcare providers are encouraged to screen for disordered eating, recognising that minoritised early adolescents may be at risk.

OBJECTIVE:Real-time imaging is useful for the evaluation of wrist instability. However, currently available real-time magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) methods are limited due to their 2D nature or provide insufficient temporal resolution and image quality for quantitative kinematic analysis. This work introduces a novel approach for volumetric dynamic MRI of the wrist joint during active motion and demonstrates the feasibility of tracking carpal bone motion. MATERIALS AND METHODS/METHODS:A flexible 8-element 3 T wrist receive coil and 3D-printed support platform for guiding motion were designed for dynamic wrist imaging. 2D real-time images were acquired using a fat-saturated FLASH sequence with radial sampling and reconstructed with the GRASP algorithm. Corresponding volumetric dynamic wrist images were obtained by assembling 2D real-time images into 3D snapshots using autodetected MRI-visible markers for slice alignment. The proposed method was demonstrated for radial-ulnar deviation on five healthy volunteers. RESULTS:The flexible wrist coil provided high SNR while allowing a wide range of wrist movements. 2D real-time wrist images were acquired with a temporal resolution of 48 ms/frame with negligible streaking artifacts. Carpal bones and metacarpal bones were properly aligned in the assembled dynamic volumes for all five subjects. The excellent bone-to-tissue contrast enabled accurate segmentation of the individual carpal bones on the assembled dynamic volumes. CONCLUSION/CONCLUSIONS:This work introduces a novel wrist coil and demonstrates that real-time volumetric dynamic examination of the moving wrist is feasible. The achieved image quality and high temporal resolution could enable automatic segmentation of carpal bones and quantitative kinematic assessment for evaluating wrist instability.
