High Intensity Physician-Based Service Use for Mental Health Concerns in a General-Population Sample of Children and Youth: Utilisation des services de haute intensité dispensés par des médecins pour les problèmes de santé mentale dans un échantillon d'enfants et de jeunes de la population générale.

Objective: To examine factors associated with high intensity physician-based mental health care services in a population-based sample of children and youth in Ontario, Canada.

Methods: Data from the 2014 Ontario Child Health Study (OCHS) were linked at the person-level to longitudinal health administrative databases containing physician contacts in outpatient settings, emergency departments and hospitals. Our analytical sample (15.

Co-evolution of atypical BRAF and KRAS mutations in colorectal tumorigenesis.

BRAF mutations in colorectal cancer (CRC) comprise three functional classes: Class 1 (V600E) with strong constitutive activation, Class 2 with pathogenic kinase activity lower than Class 1, and Class 3 which paradoxically lacks kinase activity. Non-Class 1 mutations associate with better prognosis, microsatellite stability, distal tumour location and better anti-EGFR response. Analysis of 13 CRC cohorts (n=6,605 tumours) compared Class 1 (n=709, 10.

Surgical management of costal margin rupture associated with intercostal hernia: Evolution of techniques.

Introduction: Costal margin rupture (CMR) injuries in association with intercostal hernia (IH) are rare and symptomatic and provide a significant surgical challenge. Surgical failure rates up to 60% are reported, and optimal techniques are unclear. We have characterized these injuries and describe the evolution of our surgical management techniques.

Transmission models of respiratory infections in carceral settings: A systematic review.

Background: The prevention and control of infectious disease outbreaks in carceral settings face unique challenges. Transmission modeling is a powerful tool for understanding and addressing these challenges, but reviews of modeling work in this context pre-date the proliferation of outbreaks in jails and prisons during the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic. We conducted a systematic review of studies using transmission models of respiratory infections in carceral settings before and during the pandemic.
