Methods: Semi-structured interviews were conducted with parents of participants while in a post-trial extension phase of the CO-PILOT randomized controlled trial. The Capability, Opportunity, Motivation, Behaviour Model and Theoretical Domain Framework informed the interviews and framework analysis.
Article Synopsis
- The study aimed to explore the experiences of adolescents and young adults (ages 13-25) with chronic high glucose levels who switched from multiple daily injections (MDI) to advanced hybrid closed-loop (AHCL) therapy.
- Researchers conducted semi-structured interviews with 14 participants after three months on the AHCL, identifying three key themes: improved glucose levels enhanced overall health perceptions, AHCL features supported self-management, and insulin delivery automation reduced care burden.
- The transition to AHCL therapy resulted in positive impacts on physical, mental, and social well-being, although some participants experienced transient pseudo-hypoglycaemia, highlighting the need for individualized support to facilitate uptake.
Optimal nutrition during infancy is critical given its influence on lifelong health and wellbeing. Two novel methods of infant complementary feeding, commercial baby food pouch use and baby-led weaning (BLW), are becoming increasingly popular worldwide. Household food insecurity may influence complementary feeding practices adopted by families, but no studies have investigated the use of BLW and baby food pouches in families experiencing food insecurity.

Here, we applied a multiverse analysis to a sample ERP N400 dataset, donated by an independent research team. We analyzed this dataset using 14 pipelines selected to showcase the full range of methodological variability found in the N400 literature using systematic review approach.
