A Systematic Review of Parental Self-Efficacy in Parents of Autistic Children.

Parental self-efficacy (PSE) assesses a parent's expectations and beliefs about their ability to effectively parent their child. PSE has implications for a parent's well-being, parenting practices, mental health, the parent-child relationship, and child adjustment. While PSE has been extensively examined within the broader parenting literature, the examination of PSE specifically for parents of autistic children has gained increasing attention in recent years.

Qualitative Ascriptions of Autistic Behavior by Non-Autistic College Students.

In studies that assess perceptions of autistic people by non-autistic people, researchers often ask participants to review vignettes depicting fictional autistic characters. However, few studies have investigated whether non-autistic peers accurately identify these hypothetical individuals as being on the autism spectrum. Accurately ascribing autism as a cause of depicted behaviors likely influences perceptions about autistic peers.

Renal replacement and extracorporeal therapies in critical care: current and future directions.

There are a wide number of indications for extracorporeal therapies in the critical care environment. A common indication seen by the acute physician is continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) in a proportion of patients with acute kidney injury. It is therefore important that acute physicians have a sound understanding of the principles of CRRT in the acutely unwell patient.

Topics and timing of sexuality and relationship education for autistic and non-autistic adults in the United States.

Introduction: Sexuality and relationship education is a learning area that historically has been overlooked, especially for autistic individuals. To inform future programming, we are in need of evidence-based reasoning to guide program design, such as what to cover and when. In particular, the social aspects of sexuality and relationship education, which are less commonly addressed, need further scrutiny.

Irish funder guidance increased searching for, and uptake of, core outcome sets.

Objectives: Assess the impact of the Health Research Board (HRB) Ireland guidance on the uptake of core outcome sets (COSs).

Study Design And Setting: (1) Information on COS use, searching of the Core Outcome Measures in Effectiveness Trials (COMET) database, and rationale for outcome selection were extracted from HRB funding applications (2) COMET was searched for relevant COS availability at the time of application or developed since (3) principal investigator choices were explored through online surveys.

Results: Out of 187 funding applications, 44% (n = 82) searched the COMET database, and 13% (n = 11) of those found a relevant COS to inform their outcomes.
