The impact of guided versus supportive coaching on mental health app engagement and clinical outcomes.

Although mobile mental health apps have the unique potential to increase access to care, evidence reveals engagement is low unless coupled with coaching. However, most coaching protocols are limited in their scalability. This study assesses how human support and guidance from a Digital Navigator (DN), a scalable coach, can impact mental health app engagement and effectiveness on anxiety and depressive symptoms.

Histone Deacetylase 6 Inhibition Exploits Selective Metabolic Vulnerabilities in LKB1 Mutant, KRAS Driven NSCLC.

Introduction: In KRAS-mutant NSCLC, co-occurring alterations in LKB1 confer a negative prognosis compared with other mutations such as TP53. LKB1 is a tumor suppressor that coordinates several signaling pathways in response to energetic stress. Our recent work on pharmacologic and genetic inhibition of histone deacetylase 6 (HDAC6) revealed the impaired activity of numerous enzymes involved in glycolysis.

Inhibiting GLUTtony in cancer.

In this issue of Cell Chemical Biology, Olszewski et al. (2022) address the challenge of developing small molecules to inhibit glucose uptake in cancer. They characterize a novel pan-GLUT inhibitor that suppresses tumor growth and uncover how cancer cells can adapt to glucose restriction.

Dexamethasone implant migration in an eye with congenital glaucoma: A case report and review of the literature.

Introduction: The dexamethasone (DEX) implant is an FDA approved treatment for diabetic macular edema, non-infectious posterior uveitis, and macular edema secondary to branch or central retinal vein occlusions. We describe a case of anterior chamber (AC) migration of a DEX implant in a patient with a history of congenital glaucoma and perform a review of the literature on this particular complication, summarizing the common risk factors, subsequent complications, and management options.

Case Description: A 46-year-old female with a history of congenital glaucoma, status post cataract extraction with insertion of intraocular lens, pars plana vitrectomy, and Baerveldt tube implant in the left eye was referred for post-operative cystoid macular edema (CME).

Equine-related eye injury: a case report of globe rupture and vision loss in a post-stroke hippotherapy patient.

Introduction: Hippotherapy has recently emerged as a horse-based rehabilitative therapy to improve balance, coordination, and strength in patients with a wide range of medical conditions. Although several studies have demonstrated its effectiveness in restoring balance and gait in patients who have suffered cerebrovascular accidents (CVA), few studies have reported on adverse events associated with the treatment.

Case Presentation: This case report describes a female post-stroke patient who fell from a horse during a hippotherapy session.

Different Neuronal Activity Patterns Induce Different Gene Expression Programs.

A vast number of different neuronal activity patterns could each induce a different set of activity-regulated genes. Mapping this coupling between activity pattern and gene induction would allow inference of a neuron's activity-pattern history from its gene expression and improve our understanding of activity-pattern-dependent synaptic plasticity. In genome-scale experiments comparing brief and sustained activity patterns, we reveal that activity-duration history can be inferred from gene expression profiles.

Porcine acellular dermal matrix (PADM) vascularises after exposure in open necrotic wounds seen after complex hernia repair.

Biological alternatives to synthetic meshes are increasingly utilised in complex abdominal wall reconstruction. There is a lack of evidence demonstrating that non-cross-linked porcine acellular dermal matrix vascularizes and integrates with human tissue in suboptimal wound conditions. We aimed to evaluate these properties in Strattice™ (Life Cell Inc.
