Training experienced mental health practitioners to deliver foundational trauma education: The core curriculum on childhood trauma.

Objective: The majority of U.S. mental health practitioners receive little to no foundational trauma education, and instead rely on in-service or continuing education to fill this deficit.

How do we get to trauma-informed practice? Retention and application of learning by practitioners trained using the core curriculum on childhood trauma.

Most mental health practitioners receive minimal trauma training in their degree curriculum and rely on supplemental training to build additional skills. Since 2016, the Core Curriculum on Childhood Trauma (CCCT) has been used for brief in-service training of more than 2,000 mental health practitioners. Prior evaluation showed statistically significant learning outcomes posttraining, yet little was known about retention of learning or impact on clinical practice.

Reproductive Effects of Exposure to Low-Dose Ionizing Radiation: A Long-Term Follow-Up of Immigrant Women Exposed to the Chernobyl Accident.

The Chernobyl accident in 1986 spread ionizing radiation over extensive areas of Belarus and Ukraine, leading to adverse health effects in exposed children. More than 30 years later, exposed children have grown and became parents themselves. This retrospective study from Israel was aimed to evaluate whether Chernobyl-exposed women are at higher risk for adverse reproductive outcomes.

Building a trauma-informed national mental health workforce: Learning outcomes from use of the core curriculum on childhood trauma in multidisciplinary practice settings.

Objective: The impact of trauma on mental and physical health has long been recognized as a significant public health issue, yet there has been little unanimity about how to best develop a trauma-capable national workforce. The Core Curriculum on Childhood Trauma (CCCT) is being used to train a wide variety of mental health professionals and child-serving staff; however, prior data on its effectiveness have been limited to small pilot studies with master's in social work students.

Method: We used 1,908 retrospective pre-post-training evaluations collected from 168 CCCT trainings delivered in multidisciplinary or practice settings between October 2016 and August 2019.

Outcomes of combination therapy with tyrosine kinase inhibitors and immune checkpoint inhibitors in metastatic renal cell carcinoma - A retrospective study.

Introduction: Renal cell carcinoma (RCC) is a highly vascularized and immunogenic tumor. At the time of this study, there was limited published data on the combination of tyrosine kinase inhibitors and immune checkpoint inhibitors in patients who were heavily pretreated. At our institution, providers have used these combinations in heavily pretreated patients.
