Report of a Work Group on Nonverbal Learning Disability: Consensus Criteria for Developmental Visual-Spatial Disorder, a Reconceptualization of Nonverbal Learning Disability for DSM Consideration.

Objective: Although extant research points to NonVerbal Learning Disability (NVLD) as a distinct disorder, it is not included in the diagnostic nomenclatures, and there is heterogeneity in how it is defined. We formed a working group to gain consensus on a standard DSM type definition for NVLD, a necessary first step for proposing its inclusion in future DSMs and renamed the disorder to better reflect the core deficit - visual-spatial problems.

Method: An iterative process was used to reach consensus on a DSM style criteria set that reconceptualizes NVLD as Developmental Visual-Spatial Disorder (DVSD).

Psychological impact of an intensive care admission for COVID-19 on patients in the United Kingdom.

Background: The psychological impact of surviving an admission to an intensive care unit (ICU) with COVID-19 is uncertain.

Methods: This observational study was conducted at 52 ICUs in the United Kingdom.

Bridging Them and Us Divisions: A Focus Group Study of Identities in Clinical Psychology Training.

Taking a step back: Parents' experiences of the decision-making process for elective orthognathic surgery in cleft lip and palate (IPA).

Objective: This study explored parents' experiences of the transition of responsibility to their child for healthcare decisions relating to their cleft lip and/or palate (CL/P).

Methods: Online semi-structured interviews were conducted with 11 participants (six females and five males, aged 41 to 60 years). They were parents of young people who had decided whether to undergo orthognathic surgery.

T helper 2 cell-directed immunotherapy eliminates precancerous skin lesions.

The continuous rise in skin cancer incidence highlights an imperative for improved skin cancer prevention. Topical calcipotriol-plus-5-fluorouracil (calcipotriol-plus-5-FU) immunotherapy effectively eliminates precancerous skin lesions and prevents squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) in patients. However, its mechanism of action remains unclear.
