Implementing the Multi-Disciplinary Expertise Team method to reduce involuntary care in intellectual disability care: multi-methods study evaluating adaptation and effectiveness.

Involuntary care in intellectual disability care may be reduced by deployment of multidisciplinary consultation. The Multi-Disciplinary Expertise Team (MDET) method proved effective in a previous trial on increasing involuntary care reduction. The current study aimed to examine how four organizations adapted MDET during implementation, and tested whether these versions were also effective.

Acute stress yields a sex-dependent facilitation of signaled active avoidance in rats.

Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is a debilitating disorder characterized by excessive fear, hypervigilance, and avoidance of thoughts, situations or reminders of the trauma. Among these symptoms, relatively little is known about the etiology of pathological avoidance. Here we sought to determine whether acute stress influences avoidant behavior in adult male and female rats.

Ventral hippocampus mediates inter-trial responding in signaled active avoidance.

The hippocampus has a central role in regulating contextual processes in memory. We have shown that pharmacological inactivation of ventral hippocampus (VH) attenuates the context-dependence of signaled active avoidance (SAA) in rats. Here, we explore whether the VH mediates intertrial responses (ITRs), which are putative unreinforced avoidance responses that occur between trials.

Discovery of GLPG3667, a Selective ATP Competitive Tyrosine Kinase 2 Inhibitor for the Treatment of Autoimmune Diseases.

Tyrosine kinase 2 (TYK2) mediates cytokine signaling through type 1 interferon, interleukin (IL)-12/IL-23, and the IL-10 family. There appears to be an association between TYK2 genetic variants and inflammatory conditions, and clinical evidence suggests that selective inhibition of TYK2 could produce a unique therapeutic profile. Here, we describe the discovery of compound (GLPG3667), a reversible and selective TYK2 adenosine triphosphate competitive inhibitor in development for the treatment of inflammatory and autoimmune diseases.
