Role of self-criticism in postpartum mental health: a network analysis.

Purpose: A significant percentage of women experience psychopathological symptoms during the postpartum period, which can impact not only their mental health and well-being but also the relationship between mother and baby. However, studies investigating how specific psychological factors, such as self-compassion and self-criticism, contribute to the development and maintenance of these symptoms are scarce.

Methods: This cross-sectional study aimed to examine the relationship among compassionate self-responding (CSR), uncompassionate self-responding (USR), maternal mental health indicators, mother-infant bonding, and the perceived impact of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Absence of Pathogenic Mutations and Strong Association With HLA-DRB1*11:01 in Statin-Naïve Early-Onset Anti-HMGCR Necrotizing Myopathy.

Background And Objectives: Immune-mediated necrotizing myopathy (IMNM) caused by antibodies against 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme A reductase (HMGCR) is an inflammatory myopathy that has been epidemiologically correlated with previous statin exposure. We characterized in detail a series of 11 young statin-naïve patients experiencing a chronic disease course mimicking a limb-girdle muscular dystrophy. With the hypothesis that HMGCR upregulation may increase immunogenicity and trigger the production of autoantibodies, our aim was to expand pathophysiologic knowledge of this distinct phenotype.

"Self-Designed Simulation-Based Laparoscopic Training Program for Urology Residents: Results After 6 Years of Experience".

Introduction: Learning laparoscopy (LAP) is challenging and requires different skills to conventional open surgery. There is a recognized need for a standardized laparoscopic training framework within urology to overcome these difficulties and to shift learning curve from patient to skills laboratory. Simulation-based training has been widely commented, but implementation in real day practice is lacking.
