Nipple Preserving Wise-Pattern Mastopexy Following Deep Inferior Epigastric Perforator Flap Breast Reconstruction: Description of the Surgical Technique and Clinical Results.

Breast revision surgery is often necessary in patients following postmastectomy breast reconstruction with free autologous flaps for aesthetic improvement. Indications for nipple-sparing mastectomy continue to be expanded oncologically. However, revision techniques for aesthetic concerns following breast reconstruction are underreported in the literature.

Pervasiveness of Microprotein Function Amongst Small Open Reading Frames (SMORFS).

Small Open Reading Frames (smORFs) of less than 100 codons remain mostly uncharacterised. About a thousand smORFs per genome encode peptides and microproteins about 70-80 aa long, often containing recognisable protein structures and markers of translation, and these are referred to as short Coding Sequences (sCDSs). The characterisation of individual sCDSs has provided examples of smORFs' function and conservation, but we cannot infer the functionality of all other metazoan smORFs from these.

Connectome-based symptom mapping and related gene expression in children with autism and/or attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder.

Clinical, neuroimaging and genomics evidence have increasingly underscored a degree of overlap between autism and attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). This study explores the specific contribution of their core symptoms to shared biology in a sample of N=166 verbal children (6-12 years) with rigorously-established primary diagnoses of either autism or ADHD (without autism). We investigated the associations between inter-individual differences in clinician-based dimensional measures of autism and ADHD symptoms and whole-brain low motion intrinsic functional connectivity (iFC).

Human resource management in homecare in England: managing people for safe care during crisis.

Background: Human resource management (HRM) of healthcare organisations plays an important role in improving the continuity of care, managing staff, and ensuring patient safety. During COVID-19, there were several HR-related issues, creating a significant challenging situation for health and social care institutions. This study explored the HRM issues that are associated with the patient safety in homecare, and how homecare providers have responded to these HR-related challenges during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Patterns and correlates of two-year changes in depressive symptoms for autistic adults.

Background: Autistic adults are at elevated risk for depression. However, longitudinal data on the trajectory of depressive symptoms and its associated factors in autistic adults are scarce.

Methods: A community sample of 315 autistic adults participated in a two-year longitudinal study from the beginning of (March 2020) to the recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic (March 2022).
