Objective: We examined the test-retest reliability and internal consistency of the Sensory Profile Caregiver Questionnaire (SP).

Method: Fifty-five primary caregivers of children 36-72 mo old participated in the study. Participants completed the SP on two separate occasions 7-14 days apart. Participant data were analyzed using intraclass correlation coefficients (ICCs) and Cronbach's α coefficients.

Results: Test-retest reliability was good across quadrant scores (ICC([2, 1]) = .80-.90) and moderate to good across factor (ICC([2, 1]) = .69-.88) and section scores (ICC([2, 1]) = .50-.87). Internal consistency was high across quadrant (αs = .89-.95) and factor scores (αs = .82-.93) and moderate to high across section scores (αs = .67-.93).

Conclusion: This study suggests the SP has acceptable test-retest reliability and internal consistency and supports the use of quadrant scores over factor and section scores to analyze children's sensory processing patterns.

Problematic online dating app use and its association with mental and sexual health outcomes in a sample of Men-having-Sex-with-Men.

Background And Aims: Online dating applications (ODAs) are gaining popularity, raising concerns about their potential addictive effects on users' health. The main objective of this study was to investigate the association between problematic ODA use and mental health, substance use, and sexual behavior outcomes in men-who-have-sex-with-men (MSM). To achieve this, we first validated a German version of the Problematic ODA Use Scale (PODAUS), which assesses problematic ODA usage patterns.

Mitochondrial genomes are a rich source of data for various downstream analyses such as population genetics, phylogeny, and systematics. Today it is possible to assemble rapidly large numbers of mitogenomes, mainly employing next-generation sequencing and third-generation sequencing. However, verification of the correctness of the generated sequences is often lacking, especially for noncoding, length-variable parts.

Exogenous Coreactant-Free Electrocatalytic Reactive Oxygen Species-Driven Dual-Signal Molecularly Imprinted Electrochemiluminescence Sensor for the Detection of Trenbolone.

Conventional dual-signal electrochemiluminescence (ECL) sensors feature high sensitivity and reliability, but the involvement of coreactants inevitably results in a complex configuration and shows reproducibility risk. Here, we propose an exogenous coreactant-free dual-signal platform, comprising luminol (anodic luminophore), CdSe quantum dots (cathodic luminophore), and CoO/TiC electrocatalyst (coreaction promoter). At different redox potentials, CoO/TiC induces water oxidation and oxygen reduction to produce OH and O radicals, which subsequently drive cathodic and anodic ECL emission, respectively.

Research Unit of Population Health, University of Oulu, Oulu, Finland; The Wellbeing Service County of North Ostrobothnia, Pohde, Finland; Medical Research Center Oulu, Oulu University Hospital and University of Oulu, Oulu, Finland.

Objectives: This study aimed to translate and adapt the Malocclusion Impact Questionnaire (MIQ) into Finnish; to estimate its psychometric properties when applied to Finnish adolescents; and to estimate the effect of demographic characteristics on the perceived impact of malocclusion.

Methods: The Finnish version of MIQ (MIQ-Fi) was established through translation, back-translation, and a pilot study. Psychometric properties were estimated using factorial validity (confirmatory factor analysis [CFA]), convergent validity (Average Variance Extracted [AVE]), and reliability (αordinal and ω).

The effects of age and other individual factors on radiation induced ESR signals from fingernails.

Biodosimetry is crucial for assessing ionizing radiation exposure to guide medical responses. Electron spin resonance (ESR) spectroscopy using fingernails can be effectively used for both occupational and public dose assessments in radiological accidents because of their accessibility and ability to retain stable radiation-induced free radicals. However, despite two decades of research, challenges remain in achieving accurate fingernail dosimetry, mainly owing to the variation in ESR signals among individuals.
