Implementing the 'Integrated Model for Supervision' for mental health and psychosocial support programming within humanitarian emergencies: A mixed-methods evaluation across six humanitarian contexts.

Background: The 'Integrated Model for Supervision' (IMS) offers important guidance for how to provide supportive supervision within mental health and psychosocial support (MHPSS) programming in humanitarian emergencies. The current study sought to (i) describe how the IMS was implemented following IMS training; (ii) assess whether delivery of the IMS training is associated with changes in a selection of theoretically supported quantitative outcomes; and (iii) elicit feedback on the IMS and its implementation process.

Methods: Data was collected from a participant pool of n = 119 individuals from six different humanitarian organisations that had previously participated in an IMS training.

Using Incidental Radiologic Findings of Hepatic Steatosis to Improve the Diagnosis of Metabolic Dysfunction-Associated Steatotic Liver Disease.

Metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) is a common cause of liver disease worldwide. In patients with MASLD, liver fibrosis stage is the most significant predictor of mortality; therefore, early identification of patients at the greatest risk of advanced fibrosis is essential. Noninvasive tests predict advanced fibrosis and are recommended for use in primary care settings to determine which patients would benefit most from specialty care.

Post-ejaculatory inhibition of female sexual drive via heterogeneous neuronal ensembles in the medial preoptic area.

Male ejaculation acutely suppresses sexual motivation in male mice. In contrast, relatively little is known about how male ejaculation affects sexual motivation and sexual behavior in female mice. How the brain responds to the completion of mating is also unclear.

The psychedelic (-)-2,5-dimethoxy-4-iodoamphetamine [(-)-DOI] demonstrates efficacy in reducing cocaine reward and motivation in male rats.

Rationale And Objectives: Overdose fatalities involving cocaine continue to rise with over 5.3 million cocaine users reported in the United States in 2022. The abuse liability of cocaine is reliant upon inhibition of dopamine (DA) reuptake and consequent increase in DA efflux in meso-corticolimbic circuitry that controls reward and motivation.

Paternity analysis reveals sexual selection on cognitive performance in mosquitofish.

In many animal species, cognitive abilities are under strong natural selection because decisions about foraging, habitat choice and predator avoidance affect fecundity and survival. But how has sexual selection, which is usually stronger on males than females, shaped the evolution of cognitive abilities that influence success when competing for mates or fertilizations? We aimed to investigate potential links between individual differences in male cognitive performance to variation in paternity arising solely from sexual selection. We therefore ran four standard cognitive assays to quantify five measures of cognitive performance by male mosquitofish (Gambusia holbrooki).
