Symptomatic glucocorticoid-induced adrenal suppression in the United Kingdom and Ireland: a BPSU study.

Objective: To determine the incidence and describe the presentation and management of unexpected symptomatic glucocorticoid-induced adrenal suppression (AS) in children and young people aged 0-15 years.

Setting And Design: Surveillance study of symptomatic glucocorticoid (GC)-induced AS with supportive biochemical evidence or presenting as an adrenal crisis, reported via the British Paediatric Surveillance Unit (BPSU) from September 2020 to September 2022.

Results: Over a 25-month period, 190 reports of symptomatic GC-induced AS/adrenal crisis were made, of which 22 were confirmed cases: 18 AS and 4 adrenal crises.

Women's perspectives of molecular breast imaging: a qualitative study.

Background: Mammography has poor sensitivity in dense breast tissue. Retrospective studies suggest that Molecular Breast Imaging (MBI), has superior diagnostic accuracy to mammography in women with very dense breast tissue. Women's perspectives of MBI are unknown, but are crucial to understanding the feasibility of, and routes to, adoption into practice.

Outcomes of X-Linked Agammaglobulinaemia Patients.

Background: X-linked agammaglobulinaemia (XLA), caused by mutations in BTK, is characterised by low or absent peripheral CD19 + B lymphocytes and agammaglobulinaemia. The mainstay of treatment consists of immunoglobulin replacement therapy (IgRT). As this cannot fully compensate for the immune defects in XLA, patients may therefore continue to be at risk of complications.

Epigenome-wide analysis across the development span of pediatric acute lymphoblastic leukemia: backtracking to birth.

Background: Cancer is the leading cause of disease-related mortality in children. Causes of leukemia, the most common form, are largely unknown. Growing evidence points to an origin in-utero, when global redistribution of DNA methylation occurs driving tissue differentiation.

Enhancing training in spiritual and religious competencies in mental health graduate education: Evaluation of an integrated curricular approach.

Despite practice guidelines for multiculturally competent care, including spiritual/religious diversity, most mental health graduate training programs do not formally address spiritual/religious competencies. Thus, we enhanced the Spiritual Competency Training in Mental Health (SCT-MH) course curriculum to train graduate students in foundational attitudes, knowledge, and skills for addressing clients' spirituality and/or religion (S/R). The hybrid (online and in-person) SCT-MH course curriculum was integrated into existing required graduate clinical courses (replacing 15% of a course's curriculum) and taught to 309 students by 20 instructors in 20 different graduate training programs across counseling, psychology, and social work disciplines.
