Economic hardships during COVID-19 and maternal mental health: Combining samples with low incomes across three cities.

The COVID-19 pandemic increased maternal depression and anxiety, imperiling both mothers' own wellbeing and that of their children. To date, however, little is known about the extent to which these increases are attributable to economic hardships commonly experienced during the pandemic: income loss, job loss, and loss of health insurance. Few studies have examined the individual impacts of these hardships, and none have lasted beyond the first year of the pandemic.

CCR2 restricts IFN-γ production by hippocampal CD8 TRM cells that impair learning and memory during recovery from WNV encephalitis.

Central nervous system (CNS) resident memory CD8 T cells (T) that express IFN-γ contribute to neurodegenerative processes, including synapse loss, leading to memory impairment. Here, we show that CCR2 signaling in CD8 T that persist within the hippocampus after recovery from CNS infection with West Nile virus (WNV) significantly prevents the development of memory impairments. Using CCR2-deficient mice, we determined that CCR2 expression is not essential for CNS T cell recruitment or virologic control during acute WNV infection.

Improving Academic Promotion Success via Implementation of Targeted Preparation Strategies and Coaching Processes.

Problem: Academic promotion is important for faculty career development and retention in academic medicine. However, the promotion process is time consuming, with little guidance offered to ensure successful outcomes. The authors describe their institution's standardized approach to providing clear and reliable academic promotion support and share associated outcomes.

Precision radiotherapy with molecular-profiling of CNS tumours.

Diagnoses of CNS malignancies in the primary and metastatic setting have significantly advanced in the last decade with the advent of molecular pathology. Using a combination of immunohistochemistry, next-generation sequencing, and methylation profiling integrated with traditional histopathology, patient prognosis and disease characteristics can be understood to a much greater extent. This has recently manifested in predicting response to targeted drug therapies that are redefining management practices of CNS tumours.

Are clinical decision support systems seen as helpful to First Contact Practitioners (FCPs) working in musculoskeletal health?

Background: There is increasing burden on musculoskeletal (MSK) First Contact Practitioners (FCPs) working in primary care. One possible solution is to use digital technologies such as clinical decision support systems (CDSS). The primary objective of this study was to understand the potential for MSK FCPs to use a CDSS to support their practice in the United Kingdom.
