Objective: Caregiver perceived food allergy severity is associated with food allergy burden, while caregiver food allergy self-efficacy has been linked to improved quality of life for caregivers. This study examined the mediating effect of caregiver food allergy self-efficacy on the relationship between perceived food allergy severity and caregiver food allergy burden.
Methods: Caregivers of children diagnosed with IgE-mediated food allergy were recruited from pediatric allergy clinics to complete demographic and medical questionnaires, the Food Allergy Independent Measure-Parent Form, the Food Allergy Self-Efficacy Scale for Parents, and the Food Allergy Quality of Life-Parental Burden.

Background: Metabolic-bariatric surgery (MBS) transcends weight loss and offers wide-ranging health benefits, including positive effects on brain function. However, the mechanisms behind these effects remain unclear, particularly in the context of significant postoperative changes in the inflammatory profile characteristic of MBS. Understanding how inflammation influences postoperative brain function can enhance our decision-making on patient eligibility for MBS and create new opportunities to improve the outcomes of this popular treatment.

Background: Joint hypermobility syndrome (JHS) and Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome (EDS) are connective tissue disorders characterized by increased joint laxity, affecting musculoskeletal health and quality of life. In this study, we explored recent trends in surgical treatment of shoulder instability among patients with these disorders.
Methods: We searched the PearlDiver Mariner database, which includes deidentified US all-payer claims data from 2010 to 2020.
Background: The role of social determinants of health (SDH) in patient outcomes, quality of life, and overall well-being has been well documented. However, the inclusion of these variables in randomized control trials (RCTs) remains limited; thus, the extent of generalizability from such trials is brought into question. The purpose of this study is to explore the rates of reporting SDH variables in RCTs focused on shoulder surgery from the past decade.
