Background: Web-based information and social support are commonly used in rare disease communities where geographic dispersion and limited provider expertise complicate in-person support. We examined web-based resource use among caregivers of individuals with telomere biology disorders (TBDs), which are rare genetic conditions with long diagnostic odysseys and uncertain prognoses including multiorgan system cancer risk.
Objective: This study explored internet-based information-seeking and social support practices and perspectives of patients with TBDs and their caregivers.

Department of Psychiatry and Biobehavioral Sciences, University of California, Los Angeles, CA, USA.
Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs) are very common and presently implicated in 9 out of 10 leading causes of death in the United States. Despite this fact, our mechanistic understanding of how ACEs impact health is limited. Moreover, interventions for reducing stress presently use a one-size-fits-all approach that involves no treatment tailoring or precision.

Department of Family Medicine, University of Michigan Medical School, Ann Arbor, Michigan, USA.
This systematic review and meta-analysis examined the effects of mindful-based interventions (MBIs) on changes in obesogenic eating behaviors. Seven databases (CINAHL, PubMed, PsycINFO, Cochrane, Web of Science Core Collection, Embase, Sociological Abstracts) were searched. Random-effects models were performed to estimate the pooled effects, and mixed-effects models were used to explore potential moderators of MBIs on eating behavioral changes.

Article Synopsis
- - Food cravings are a strong desire for tasty foods that can lead to obesity, as they aren't just related to hunger but to complex emotional and psychological factors, making standard weight management approaches inadequate.
- - A review of 115 studies highlighted the biological and psychological factors driving cravings, as well as current measurement and management strategies, including lifestyle changes, psychological therapies (like CBT), and certain medications that can help control cravings.
- - The research suggests a need for a new, flexible model for addressing food cravings in weight management settings that can adapt to individual needs over time for effective long-term weight loss.
