An innovative model of behavioral healthcare for older adults with serious mental illness, substance use disorders, and dementia.

Introduction: Older adults with serious mental illness (SMI) experience higher rates of medical comorbidities, mortality, hospital readmissions, and total healthcare spending when compared with Medicare beneficiaries without SMI. Although telehealth provides an opportunity to overcome barriers to behavioral healthcare access, older adults face unique challenges when accessing and utilizing telehealth services. We present Author Health's care model, which integrates virtual-first behavioral health care with an interdisciplinary approach to health-related social needs (HRSN) screening and intervention in older adults.

Meta-analytic associations between the Student-Teacher Relationship Scale and students' social competence with peers.

According to developmental psychologists, more supportive and less conflictual relationships with teachers play a positive role in children's social behavior with peers both concurrently and in the future. This meta-analysis examined the association between teacher-student relationship quality, as measured by the Student-Teacher Relationship Scale (STRS; Pianta, 2001a), and social competence from early childhood through high school. Based on nearly 30,000 students from 87 studies, the weighted average association between teacher-student relationship quality and social competence with peers was = .

Be SMART About Asthma Management: Single Maintenance and Reliever Therapy.

Single maintenance and reliever therapy (SMART) is an asthma treatment approach that utilizes combined inhaled corticosteroids and long-acting β-agonists for maintenance and quick relief therapy. Despite the evidence for its benefits in asthma treatment and its adoption into American and international asthma guidelines and recommendations, SMART remains a practice of some debate. This article reviews the available evidence for SMART and offers guidance for its integration into comprehensive asthma management.

The impact of gas purity on observed reactivity with NO using inductively coupled plasma tandem mass spectrometry.

Interference removal in inductively coupled plasma tandem mass spectrometry (ICP-MS/MS) is strongly dependent on the gas selected for use within the collision/reaction cell. There has been little investigation on the effects that reaction gas impurities may have on the resulting spectra. The reactivity of 60 elements was evaluated using nitric oxide (NO 99.

Why does perceived parenting in adolescence predict maladaptive personality in adulthood? Evidence for substantial genetic mediation.

Why is parenting in adolescence predictive of maladaptive personality in adulthood? This study sets out to investigate environmental and genetic factors underlying the association between parenting and maladaptive personality longitudinally in a large sample of twins. The present study addressed this question via a longitudinal study focused on two cohorts of twins assessed on aspects of perceived parenting (parent- and adolescent-reported) at age 14 years ( =1,094 pairs). Participants were followed to adulthood, and maladaptive personality traits were self-reported using the Personality Inventory for DSM-5 (PID-5) at age 24 or 34 years.
