The impact of remdesivir on SARS-CoV-2 evolution in vivo.

The impact of remdesivir on SARS-CoV-2 diversity and evolution in vivo has remained unclear. In this single-center, retrospective cohort study, we assessed SARS-CoV-2 diversification and diversity over time in a cohort of hospitalized patients who did or did not receive remdesivir. Whole genome sequencing was performed on 98 paired specimens collected from 49 patients before and after remdesivir administration.

Seeing your child in pain: Parent empathy in the context of their child's chronic pain.

Observing your child in pain is inherently distressing. In the context of chronic pain, caregiver responses can powerfully impact child pain-related functioning. The Parent Empathy in the Context of Pain model postulates that parent empathic distress may hinder adaptive responses to child pain, thus playing a key role in the link between parent responses and child functioning.

Reaching experts for enhanced referral (REFER) to pain psychology: a modified Delphi approach with multidisciplinary paediatric pain providers at a specialised center in the USA.

Background: To minimise the referral gap to pain psychology, the purpose of this study was to describe clinician-perceived patient suitability for pain psychology referral, develop a referral plan and outline essential elements of a referral conversation via a modified Delphi approach with multidisciplinary paediatric pain providers.

Methods: We employed a three-round modified Delphi approach consulting multidisciplinary paediatric pain providers (n=18) including physicians, psychologists, physical therapists, occupational therapists and nurse practitioners (PT, OT, NP). Based on the responses to an online survey (Round 1), initial statements regarding the pain psychology referral process were developed.

Scanxiety and Fear of Recurrence in Young Adult Female Breast and Gynaecological Cancer Survivors: Investigating Shared Mechanisms.

Background: Adolescent and young adult (AYA) females are vulnerable to psychological sequelae following cancer diagnosis and treatment. Fear of cancer recurrence (FCR) is well-documented in cancer survivors, however AYA survivors of breast and gynaecological cancers are less well-studied. Moreover, little is known about scan-related fears and anxiety ('scanxiety') in survivors of any age group.
