Objective: The investigators aimed to extend findings regarding predictive factors of psychiatric outcomes among children and adolescents with traumatic brain injury (TBI) from 2 to 24 years postinjury.

Methods: Youths aged 6-14 years who were hospitalized following TBI from 1992 to 1994 were assessed at baseline for TBI severity and for preinjury psychiatric, adaptive, and behavioral functioning; family functioning; family psychiatric history; socioeconomic status; and intelligence within weeks of injury. Predictors of psychiatric outcomes following pediatric TBI at 3, 6, 12, and 24 months postinjury have previously been reported.

A growing body of research supports self-management approaches that can improve outcomes in people living with epilepsy (PLWE). An evidence-based remotely delivered self-management program (SMART) that was successfully delivered in an urban/suburban setting has the potential to be particularly helpful to PLWE who live in rural communities, where heavy stigma burden and limited access to healthcare is common. In this Phase 1 exploratory study, focus groups of key rural stakeholders (PLWE, family members, care providers) were used to: (1) gather information on factors that may impede or facilitate participation in SMART and (2) elicit overall perceptions of the program, as well as suggestions and feedback for refining it for implementation in Phase 2 of the randomized controlled study (RCT).

Article Synopsis
  • The study compared psychiatric outcomes between adults with and without a history of pediatric traumatic brain injury (TBI), focusing on individuals who were hospitalized between 1992 and 1994.
  • At 24 years post-injury, the TBI group showed significantly higher rates of novel psychiatric disorders (NPD) compared to a control group of healthy adults, including earlier onset of these disorders.
  • Key predictors for developing long-term NPD in the TBI group were prior psychiatric disorders and abnormal CT scans conducted on the day of injury.

Optical super-resolution techniques reach unprecedented spatial resolution down to a few nanometers. However, efficient multiplexing strategies for the simultaneous detection of hundreds of molecular species are still elusive. Here, we introduce an entirely new approach to multiplexed super-resolution microscopy by designing the blinking behavior of targets with engineered binding frequency and duration in DNA-PAINT.

In 1973 Mr Richard Hughes, who was working on the third novel of his trilogy on the rise of the Nazi Party and Adolf Hitler, came to see me regarding a document, some 300 pages long, on the medical treatment given by Dr Theodore Morell to Hitler. The document had been obtained at the Nuremberg war trials. My original report to Hughes on the content of this document is reproduced here.
