Prosocial is a systems-level intervention framework that incorporates elements of acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT) with Ostrom's core design principles (CDPs) guiding effective organizations and collective action (Ostrom, 1990). We evaluated a Prosocial intervention to support teachers and staff in a specialized school. AB analysis supported improvements in group cohesion and values-behavior alignment during the intervention and pre-post analyses showed significant improvements in psychological flexibility and perceived stress of participants.

Risk stratification tools for the prediction of complications in patients with upper gastrointestinal haemorrhage are crucial for appropriate management. Blood group status has been associated with the risk of bleeding, thrombosis and risk of peptic ulcer disease (PUD). We assessed the influence of blood group status on rebleeding and other complications in 699 patients with PUD bleeding.

Background: Addition of apolipoprotein E4 (ApoE4) proteotype (as a surrogate for high‐risk ɛ4 genotype) has significantly improved models that use the plasma Aβ42/40 ratio to predict Aβ PET‐positivity, but studies suggest different ethnicities may be less affected by the addition. Our objective was to assess the influence ApoE4 proteotype in a predominantly Hispanic cohort of participants.

Method: Participants in this study (n = 250) underwent neurological and neuropsychological evaluations and amyloid PET brain scans (SUVR data and visual reads) at the 1Florida ADRC; they also underwent blood draws for ApoE4 proteotyping and Aβ42/40 ratio determination by LC‐MS/MS performed at Quest Diagnostics.
