Background/objectives: Antisense oligonucleotide (ASO)-mediated exon-skipping is an effective approach to restore the disrupted reading frame of the dystrophin gene for the treatment of Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD). Currently, four FDA-approved ASOs can target three different exons, but these therapies are mutation-specific and only benefit a subset of patients. Understanding the broad applicability of exon-skipping approaches is essential for prioritizing the development of additional therapies with the greatest potential impact on the DMD population.

Background: The Costa Rica HPV Vaccine Trial provided initial evidence that 1 dose of the bivalent human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccine induces stabilizing antibody levels that may provide extended protection against HPV-16/18 infections. We report antibody seropositivity and stability 11 to 16 years after vaccination.
Methods: We invited a random subset of Costa Rica HPV Vaccine Trial participants (n = 398) who had received 3 doses and all women (n = 203) who had received 1 dose at 18 to 25 years of age to follow-up visits 11, 14, and 16 years after vaccination.
Objective: E-cigarette use is associated with subsequent cigarette smoking among youth. The current study examined the mediating role of social-cognitive factors in this association.
Methods: Data from four waves of the Population Assessment of Tobacco and Health study (2013/4 - 2017/8) were analyzed.
