Integrating Community-Based Doulas into the Maternity Health Care System in an Urban Hospital.

Background: Maternal morbidity and mortality in the United States are higher than peer countries. These adverse events disproportionally affect Black women.

Local Problem: Rates of maternal morbidity and mortality among Black childbearing women in West Louisville, Kentucky are higher than rates in Kentucky and the United States.

Perceived Usefulness of Robotic Technology for Patient Fall Prevention.

Background: Technology has the potential to prevent patient falls in healthcare settings and to reduce work-related injuries among healthcare providers. However, the usefulness and acceptability of each technology requires careful evaluation. Framed by the Technology Acceptance Model (TAM) and using the Adaptive Robotic Nursing Assistant (ARNA) to assist with patient ambulation, the present study examined the perceived usefulness of robots in patients' fall prevention with implications for preventing associated work-related injuries among healthcare providers.

Microscale visualization of cellular features in adult macaque visual cortex.

Expansion microscopy and light sheet imaging enable fine-scale resolution of intracellular features that comprise neural circuits. Most current techniques visualize sparsely distributed features across whole brains or densely distributed features within individual brain regions. Here, we visualize dense distributions of immunolabeled proteins across early visual cortical areas in adult macaque monkeys.

Expansion-assisted selective plane illumination microscopy for nanoscale imaging of centimeter-scale tissues.

Recent advances in tissue processing, labeling, and fluorescence microscopy are providing unprecedented views of the structure of cells and tissues at sub-diffraction resolutions and near single molecule sensitivity, driving discoveries in diverse fields of biology, including neuroscience. Biological tissue is organized over scales of nanometers to centimeters. Harnessing molecular imaging across intact, three-dimensional samples on this scale requires new types of microscopes with larger fields of view and working distance, as well as higher throughput.

Effect of pharmacogenomic testing on pediatric mental health outcome: a 6-month follow-up.

This retrospective, case-control study evaluated the effect of pharmacogenomic testing (PGT) on the management of pediatrics with anxiety, major depressive disorder (MDD) and attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). The authors examined psychiatric diagnoses, medication histories, CYP450 profiles, SLC6A4, , and . The authors found no difference in clinical improvement between the two groups.
