Article Synopsis
- The study aimed to develop a process model for cognitive analytic reflective practice (CARP) groups, focusing on its application in reflective practice within secure children's homes.
- The research involved 24 participants over a year, analyzing group sessions through audio recordings and grounded theory methodology to ascertain helpfulness and group cohesion.
- The resulting model comprised three main categories: facilitator processes, group processes, and outcomes, providing insights into how cognitive analytic therapy can enhance reflective practices and improve relational dynamics in care systems.
Objectives: Given the ubiquity in routine services of low-intensity guided self-help (GSH) psychological interventions, better patient selection for these brief interventions would be organizationally efficient. This study therefore sought to define who would respond best to two different types of GSH for anxiety to enable better future treatment matching.
Methods: The study used outcome data from a patient preference trial (N = 209) comparing cognitive analytic therapy-guided self-help (CAT-GSH) with cognitive behavioural therapy-guided self-help (CBT-GSH).
Background: Investigating the contributory role that epithelial cell metabolism plays in allergic inflammation is a key factor to understanding what influences dysfunction and the pathogenesis of the allergic disease eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE). We previously highlighted that the absence of hypoxia signaling through hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF)-1α in EoE contributes to esophageal epithelial dysfunction. However, metabolic regulation by HIF-1α has not been explored in esophageal allergy.

- Self-harm is when people hurt themselves, and it can really affect their lives. There aren't many effective treatments available, and some people have trouble getting help or have to wait a long time for it.
- Cognitive Analytic Therapy (CAT) is a kind of therapy that might help people who self-harm, and this research is testing if it can work well in a larger study.
- The study will involve adults with a history of self-harm receiving CAT along with regular treatment, with interviews to see if they find it helpful and easy to access.
