Experiences of policy-advisors in capacity, opportunity and motivation for implementing local tobacco control.

Introduction: Due to decades of decentralisation of public health policies, local governments have been given increased tobacco control responsibilities across European countries. Previous studies suggest that implementing local tobacco control policies is not without challenges (e.g.

Recreational and Occupational Physical Activity and Risk of Adverse Events in Truncating Founder Variant Carriers.

Background: founder variants cause hypertrophic cardiomyopathy leading to heart failure and malignant ventricular arrhythmias. Exercise is typically regarded as a risk factor for disease expression although evidence is conflicting. Stratifying by type of exercise may discriminate low- from high-risk activities in these patients.

Impostor phenomenon short scale (IPSS-3): a novel measure to capture impostor feelings in large-scale and longitudinal surveys.

The Imposter Phenomenon (IP) is gaining increasing attention in academia, not only as an overall attractive research topic but also as a concern that especially affects members of minority groups. Nevertheless, there is little evidence for the occurrence and socio-structural correlates of the IP. Against the backdrop of a pressing need to contextualize the IP, this paper provides (1) an overview of the existing empirical evidence on the IP from a perspective that incorporates the role of social contexts, (2) highlights shortcomings in both existing theoretical approaches and methodological tools, (3) introduces the Impostor Phenomenon Short Scale (IPSS-3) as a novel, time-efficient and universally applicable IP measure, and (4) underscores that the IP, in fact, does not occur in a social vacuum but is closely intertwined with socio-structural characteristics.

The Reporting of Race and Ethnicity in the Conduct Disorder Literature: A Time-Sensitive Review.

Background: Among presenting conditions in pediatric acute care settings, conduct disorder (CD) is a potentially stigmatizing yet common diagnosis in the setting of behavioral dysregulation requiring psychiatric admission. Concerns exist about over-diagnosis of CD in non-Hispanic Black children relative to White peers and the potential for the CD diagnosis to obfuscate manifestations of co-occurring psychiatric conditions.

Methods: We evaluated the number of manuscripts on CD diagnoses that report race and ethnicity and co-occurring mental health characteristics (i.

Patient preferences for treatment of Bowen's disease.

Background: Discrete choice experiments (DCEs) are increasingly used to understand and quantify patient preferences for a variety of treatments, services or screening in order to analyse the choices patients make when faced with different alternatives. The aim of this DCE was to examine patient preferences for the treatment of Bowen's disease.

Methods: A DCE was conducted alongside a randomised controlled non-inferiority trial comparing the effectiveness of surgical excision, MAL-PDT, and 5-fluorouracil cream as treatments for Bowen's disease.
