Article Synopsis
- 22q11.2 deletion syndrome (22q11DS) is the most common microdeletion in humans, linked to reduced gray matter volume and neuropsychiatric issues like cognitive impairment and psychosis.
- A study involving 783 participants (470 with 22q11DS and 313 controls) used advanced brain imaging techniques to identify specific patterns of gray matter volume covariance associated with this syndrome.
- Results indicated that individuals with 22q11DS show unique structural brain abnormalities, particularly in the cerebellum, and these alterations follow distinct patterns rather than a widespread decline.
An integrative review following Whittemore and Knafl's 5-stage approach (problem identification, literature search, data evaluation, data analysis, and presentation) was conducted to synthesize the evidence on the theoretical, conceptual, and operational aspects of simulation training with rapid cycle deliberate practice (RCDP). After the literature search, 2 reviewers independently read and critically evaluated primary studies using the eligibility criteria. A third more experienced reviewer solved disagreements between the reviewers.

Microscopy imaging in particular is currently undergoing rapid technological advancements. However, for scientists wishing to publish obtained images and image-analysis results, there are currently no unified guidelines for best practices.

Background: The use of peripheral intravenous catheters is associated with high rates of complications, although it is widely used in clinical practice. Training strategies to ensure good performance can minimize the risks inherent to this procedure.
