Training Community Clinicians in Implementing CBT-ERP for Youth with OCD: A Pilot Study in Australian Community Mental Health Services.

This pilot study evaluated the outcomes associated with a training workshop in cognitive-behavioural therapy with exposure and response prevention (ERP) for youth with obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) aimed at improving clinicians' capabilities and motivations. Questionnaires and role-plays were completed by 17 Australian clinicians working across community youth (i.e.

Consultation informs strategies to improve functional evidence use in variant classification.

To determine if a variant identified by diagnostic genetic testing is causal for disease, applied genetics professionals evaluate all available evidence to assign a clinical classification. Experimental assay data can provide strong functional evidence for or against pathogenicity in variant classification, but appears to be underutilised. We surveyed genetic diagnostic professionals in Australasia to assess their application of functional evidence in clinical practice.

Elucidation of Dysregulated Pathways Associated With Hypoxia in Oestrogen Receptor-Negative Breast Cancer.

Purpose: Carbonic anhydrase IX (CAIX) is a well-established prognostic marker in breast cancer (BC). Nevertheless, this prognostic value is yet to be confirmed in BC subtypes. This study aims to investigate the prognostic effects of CAIX in oestrogen receptor (ER)-negative (ER-) BCs and to establish pathways related to cytoplasmic CAIX expression in ER- and lymph node-negative BCs.

Lower Extremity Asymmetry Values Derived From Multiple Strength Testing Modes Are Associated With Perceived Functional Capabilities Among University Athletes.

Muscle strength asymmetry and athlete introspective measures are associated with musculoskeletal (MSK) sport injury and reinjury. However, the interrelationship between mechanical and subjective measures of concentric and eccentric limb function needs further exploration. This includes investigating if an athlete's perception of their overall MSK function influences limb asymmetry across different testing modalities.
