The authors report the results of an open trial of group behavioral treatment for women with a prospectively confirmed premenstrual syndrome. Treatment consisted of five weekly group behavioral sessions outlining and supporting lifestyle changes in diet, exercise level, and stress management. Patients monitored symptoms and adherence to dietary and exercise recommendations daily. Results are discussed for the first 48 women to complete the trial. Eighty-three percent of patients demonstrated either a remission (n= 28) or 50% reduction in symptoms (n = 12) at one month following the group treatment. Improvements in physical and emotional symptoms were significantly associated with an increase in exercise.

Background: Exogenous double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) has the potential to serve as an effective alternative to conventional chemical pesticides for the control of insect pests, because it can specifically inhibit essential gene expression in these organisms. However, identifying suitable gene targets remains a crucial step in the development of RNA interference (RNAi)-based pest control strategies.
Results: In this study, three apoptosis-related genes were selected to evaluate their potential for RNAi-induced lethality in Henosepilachna vigintioctopunctata via foliar spray dsRNAs.

Aims: To evaluate the implementation process of a novel program focused on improving interactive (dialogic) feedback between clinicians and students during placement.
Design: Quantitative cross-sectional hybrid type 3 effectiveness-implementation study driven by a federated model of social learning theory and implementation theory.
Methods: From June to November 2018, feedback approaches supported by socio-constructive learning theory and Normalisation Process Theory were enacted in four clinical units of a healthcare facility in southeast Queensland, Australia.
Exploring Individual Differences in Interoception Among Athletes Based on a Three-Dimensional Construct of Interoception.

School of Psychology, Beijing Sport University, Beijing, China.
Previous studies demonstrated that sensorimotor training enhances interoceptive abilities. Athletes are highly engaged in performance-driven physical training and often incorporate-to varying degrees-sensorimotor training into their routines. In this study, we investigated the role of individual differences in interoception by comparing professional athletes of different performance levels and both sexes with recreational athletes and controls, applying a three-dimensional model of interoception.

Inherited retinal diseases (IRDs) constitute a heterogeneous group of clinically and genetically diverse conditions, standing as a primary cause of visual impairment among individuals aged 15-45, with an estimated incidence of 1:2000. Our study aimed to comprehensively evaluate the genetic variants underlying IRDs in the Turkish population. This study included 50 unrelated Turkish IRD patients and their families.

Background: Recent studies have emphasized the association between prolonged screen exposure and neurodevelopmental disorders, though its correlation with tic disorders (TDs) remains ambiguous. We thus conducted this study to investigate the association between screen time (ST) and the severity of tic symptoms in children diagnosed with TDs.
Methods: We conducted a retrospective case-control study with 342 cases of TDs and 270 controls, collecting data from March 2021 to December 2023.
