Do emotion regulation difficulties affect outcome of intensive trauma-focused treatment of patients with severe PTSD?

: There is ongoing debate as to whether emotion regulation problems should be improved first in order to profit from trauma-focused treatment, or will diminish after successful trauma processing. : To enhance our understanding about the importance of emotion regulation difficulties in relation to treatment outcomes of trauma-focused therapy of adult patients with severe PTSD, whereby we made a distinction between people who reported sexual abuse before the age of 12, those who were 12 years or older at the onset of the abuse, individuals who met the criteria for the dissociative subtype of PTSD, and those who did not. : Sixty-two patients with severe PTSD were treated using an intensive eight-day treatment programme, combining two first-line trauma-focused treatments for PTSD (i.

Dataset on blood biomarkers and GRACE score measured at admission for myocardial infarction in a large secondary hospital.

The GRACE score is currently the most widely used model to assess patient prognosis after myocardial infarction (MI). We have demonstrated that the prognostic performance of the GRACE score can be improved by adding blood biomarkers measured routinely at hospital admission in our study recently published in the International Journal of Cardiology: "Addition of routinely measured blood biomarkers significantly improves GRACE risk stratification in patients with myocardial infarction". In this Data-in-Brief article we present additional original data from our dataset.

Addition of routinely measured blood biomarkers significantly improves GRACE risk stratification in patients with myocardial infarction.

Aim: To investigate whether blood biomarkers measured routinely at hospital admission in myocardial infarction (MI) patients can improve the admission GRACE score for the composite endpoint of all-cause mortality and non-fatal MI at 6 months.

Methods: 2055 patients treated for MI in the Northwest clinics, the Netherlands, between 2013 and 2016 were examined. As part of the prevailing MI treatment protocol, 19 biomarkers were measured and the GRACE score was ascertained.

What a difference your e-mail makes: effects of informal e-mail addresses in online résumé screening.

Résumés are screened rapidly, with some reports stating that recruiters form their impressions within 10 seconds. Certain résumé characteristics can have a significant impact on the snap judgments these recruiters make. The main goal of the present study was to examine the effect of the e-mail address (formal vs.
