Background: The use of low-value care (LVC) is a persistent challenge in health care. Health technology reassessment (HTR) assesses the effects of technologies currently used in the health care system to guide optimal use of these technologies. Consequently, HTR holds promises for identifying and reducing, i.

Effective training of mental health professionals is crucial for bridging the gap between research and practice when delivering cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) and motivational interviewing (MI) within community settings. However, previous research has provided inconclusive evidence regarding the impact of training efforts. The current study aimed to systematically search, review and synthesize the literature on CBT and MI training to assess its effect on practitioner behavioural outcomes.

Article Synopsis
  • Accurate and rapid breath monitoring plays a crucial role in healthcare, particularly for diagnosing conditions like sleep apnea and detecting early physiological disorders; however, existing devices are often uncomfortable and expensive.
  • This paper discusses the development of a sensitive respiratory sensor using silicon nanowires (SiNWs) created through a cost-effective technique involving metal-assisted chemical etching, emphasizing the importance of reducing production costs by exploring aluminum (Al) electrodes as an alternative to gold (Au).
  • The study compares the performance of SiNWs breath sensors with p-type and n-type silicon, observing that the choice of electrode material affects the sensor's response, ultimately highlighting the need for further research to understand the underlying mechanics of these interactions.

Introduction: Implementation science has traditionally focused on the implementation of evidence-based practices, but the field has increasingly recognized the importance of addressing de-implementation (i.e., the process of reducing low-value care).

4'Cl-cumyl-PINACA (SGT-157), 4'F-cumyl-5F-PINACA (4F-cumyl-5F-PINACA, SGT-65) and 4'F-cumyl-5F-PICA (4F-cumyl-5F-PICA, SGT-64) are a series of new halogenated cumyl synthetic cannabinoid receptor agonists (SCRAs). Due to rapid metabolism, monitoring and screening for SCRAs in biological matrices requires identification of their metabolites. It is an essential tool for estimating their spread and fluctuations in the global illicit market.
