Personnel recruitment and retention is one of the most challenging facets of management. Despite turnover rates, identifying and retaining good employees should be foremost on any managerial agenda. An effective employee recruiting/relations program enhances the overall productivity of an operation by addressing concerns at staff level, often considered the core of activity. In this issue, we asked our respondents: What methods do you use to recruit and retain medical technologists?

Serum Immunoglobulin G Levels and Nicastrin Variation in Hidradenitis Suppurativa.
JAMA Dermatol
January 2025
Centre for Molecular Medicine and Biobanking, University of Malta, Malta.
Importance: Variation in nicastrin (NCSTN) is associated with a monogenic subtype of hidradenitis suppurativa. Dysregulation of humoral immunity has been suggested as a potential mechanistic link between NCSTN variation and hidradenitis suppurativa. There is a paucity of biomarkers that can predict disease-associated variation.

Population Health Sciences, Bristol Medical School, University of Bristol, Bristol, United Kingdom.
Background: Financial incentives may be important for improving response rates to data collection activities and for retaining participants in longitudinal studies. However, for large studies, this introduces significant additional costs. We sought to determine whether an opt-in or an opt-out option for receiving financial incentives when completing questionnaires offers any cost saving measures.

Center of Innovation to Accelerate Discovery and Practice Transformation, Durham VA Health Care System, Durham, North Carolina, USA.
Background And Objectives: As the population ages there is an increasing need for caregiver training programs, but little is known about how to deliver implementation support for diverse sites in large-scale implementation efforts. External group-based implementation facilitation may be one promising approach. This study's objective is to detail the development and delivery of a pragmatic implementation facilitation approach to support the national rollout of caregiver training, Caregivers FIRST, at over 140 Veterans Health Administration (VHA) sites.

Early Interv Psychiatry
February 2025
University College Dublin, Dublin, Ireland.
Introduction: Research with integrated youth mental health services (IYMHS) has been criticised for low quality, with difficulties in recruiting and retaining participants in studies which can introduce bias. This feasibility study aimed to investigate the "real-world research" barriers and facilitators to recruitment and retention arising in a longitudinal study with Jigsaw, the National Centre for Youth Mental Health in Ireland, and to provide recommendations for conducting IYMHS research in future.
Methods: A qualitative study was conducted to investigate recruitment and retention difficulties.
Novel tertiary diarylethylamines as functionally selective agonists of the kappa opioid receptor.

Novel kappa opioid receptor (KOR) agonists that preferentially activate G-protein signaling versus β-arrestin-2 recruitment are described. Starting from a literature-reported phenol-containing diphenethylamine KOR agonist, structure-activity relationship (SAR) studies revealed replacement of the phenol with various non-hydroxylated bicyclic heteroaromatics led to tertiary diarylethylamines which retained KOR agonist activity and improved metabolic stability in human liver microsomes. Further optimizations produced compound 39, a potent activator of G-protein signaling (GTPγS EC = 14 nM, 83 % E) that did not elicit a β-arrestin-2 recruitment functional response (E < 10 %).
