Understanding Barriers and Facilitators of Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder Treatment Initiation and Adherence in Black and Latinx Children.

Objective: Despite evidence that consistent treatment is important for Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) management, ADHD treatment initiation and adherence remains suboptimal in minoritized children. The goal of this study was to explore barriers and facilitators to ADHD treatment initiation/adherence for minoritized children to further inform development of our family navigation intervention.

Methods: Using a virtual platform, we completed 7 focus group sessions (total n.

Effect of Live Versus Recorded Music on Children Receiving Mechanical Ventilation and Sedation.

Background: Music is often used as a nonpharmacological pain management strategy, but little evidence is available about its role in pediatric critical care patients.

Objective: To determine the effect of a live music intervention versus a recorded music intervention on heart rate, blood pressure, and respiratory rate in pediatric critical care patients receiving mechanical ventilation and sedation.

Methods: An exploratory randomized controlled trial was performed in a pediatric intensive care unit.

Music Therapist Experiences of a Randomized Controlled Trial as Clinician Researchers.

Music therapy clinicians bring an important perspective to the design and conduct of clinically meaningful studies. Unfortunately, there continue to be roadblocks that hinder clinician involvement in research and the development of successful partnerships between academic researchers and practicing clinicians. To help grow clinician involvement, it is important that research teams share their experiences.

Families' Experiences of Doubling Up After Homelessness.

This study examined experiences of doubling up among families after episodes of homelessness. refers to two or more adults or families residing in the same housing unit, which has been an increasing trend in the United States in recent decades. Within the past 14 years, the number of households containing more than one family, related or unrelated, has more than tripled.

Eat for life: a work site feasibility study of a novel mindfulness-based intuitive eating intervention.

Purpose: To examine the efficacy of a novel intervention for problematic eating behaviors and body dissatisfaction.

Design: Participants enrolled in the intervention or waitlist comparison group were assessed at pre and post 10 weeks.

Setting: Midwestern university.

Bibliotherapy for low sexual desire: evidence for effectiveness.

This study examines the effectiveness of bibliotherapy for low sexual desire among women, which is the most frequent sexual concern brought to counselors. Forty-five women responded to an advertisement for participation in a study on low sexual desire and were assigned to either the intervention or the wait-list control group. The intervention group completed the Hurlbert Index of Sexual Desire (HISD; Apt & Hurlbert, 1992) and the Female Sexual Function Index (FSFI; R.

Inhibition of dimethylarginine dimethylaminohydrolase (DDAH) and arginine deiminase (ADI) by pentafluorophenyl (PFP) sulfonates.

A range of pentafluorophenyl (PFP) sulfonate esters derived from the reaction of PFP vinyl sulfonate and various nitrones are shown to have significant inhibitory activity against the bacterial enzymes DDAH and ADI.

Synthesis of functionalized sulfonamides via 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition of pentafluorophenyl vinylsulfonate.

[reaction: see text] An efficient intermolecular 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition of a variety of nitrones to pentafluorophenyl (PFP) vinylsulfonate is described. The transformation produces stable "reversed" cycloadducts of unprecedented stereo- and regioselectivity. Subsequent amine displacement of the PFP moiety furnished functionalized sulfonamide products in good yields.

A new route to sulfonamides via intermolecular radical addition to pentafluorophenyl vinylsulfonate and subsequent aminolysis.

[reaction: see text] Various radical species generated from either the corresponding iodo- or bromo- compounds and tri-n-butyltin hydride were added in an intermolecular fashion to the activated acceptor pentafluorophenyl vinylsulfonate. The products of each reaction were then subjected to aminolysis with a variety of different amines.
