A Qualitative Analysis of Stakeholder Attitudes Regarding Personalized Provider Selection and Patient-Therapist Matching.

This study explored mental health care patients and therapists' perspectives on using therapists' measurement-based and problem-specific effectiveness data to inform case assignments - a type of treatment personalization that has been shown to outperform non-measurement-based case assignment as usual (Constantino et al., 2021). We conducted semi-structured qualitative interviews with 8 patients (75% women; M age = 33.

Outcome trajectories in a county mental health clinic before and after telemental health: a retrospective COVID-19 cohort study.

Background/objectives: Telemental health (TMH) care has received increased attention, most recently due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Many treatment settings and clinicians were forced to rapidly shift to TMH modalities, including clinicians with limited exposure to and possibly negative attitudes toward alternative treatment delivery formats. With the shift to new modalities, effectiveness research is necessary to understand if patients are receiving the same quality of care as before the pandemic and their receipt of mostly in person services.

Trajectories of interpersonal problems in residential eating disorder treatment: Exploring the influence of primary diagnosis.

Baseline interpersonal problems have been associated with treatment outcome in eating disorders (ED) and are important for understanding ED maintenance and aetiology. Despite this evidence, little is known about trajectories of change in interpersonal problems in the context of treatment, particularly in intensive ED treatment. This study examined the trajectory of total interpersonal problems in residential ED treatment, as well as two subdomains previously highlighted in ED research of being overly Cold (interpersonally distant) or overly Domineering (interpersonally controlling), as a function of different primary presenting ED diagnoses: anorexia nervosa restricting subtype (AN-R), binge-purge subtype (AN-BP), and bulimia nervosa or binge eating (BN/BED).

Interventional Bronchus Occlusion Using Amplatzer Devices - A Promising Treatment Option for Children with Persistent Air Leak.

Background: Persistent air leak (PAL) is a severe complication of secondary spontaneous pneumothorax (SSP). Surgical interventions are usually successful when medical treatment fails, but can be associated with significant complications and loss of potentially recoverable lung parenchyma.

Methods: Retrospective analysis of efficacy and safety of interventional bronchus occlusions (IBO) using Amplatzer devices (ADs) in children with PAL secondary to SSP.
