Cognitive behavioral therapies have positive effects on anger and aggression; however, individuals differ in their response to treatment. The authors previously found that dynamic factors, such as increases in readiness to change, are associated with enhanced outcomes for violence reduction training. This study investigated how less dynamic factors, specifically Cluster B personality traits, moderate the effects of violence reduction training. The authors used mixed modeling to fit growth curves to 14 weeks of anger strategies data and evaluated whether the presence of Cluster B traits affected pretreatment anger levels and rates of change. As expected, overall levels of negative anger strategies decreased across the 14-week treatment. Participants with antisocial, borderline, and histrionic personality features reported higher rates of negative anger strategies, whereas those with narcissistic personality features reported fewer negative anger strategies. Those with antisocial personality features improved at a rate similar to the overall trend of those without Cluster B traits. Those with borderline and histrionic features improved at an accelerated rate.

Individuals' involvement in reactive and proactive online aggression has garnered widespread concern from various societal sectors, marking it as a critical indicator of individual social development. The influencing factors that might exist for both reactive and proactive online aggression have been little explored. Understanding these could help us develop more effective intervention strategies, targeting individuals who exhibit both types of aggression.

Hematology patients require central venous catheters for cancer treatment and nutrition, which increases their risk of intravascular device-associated bacteremia. In the absence of recent data, we investigated intravascular device-associated bacteremia in this specific context. A three-month surveillance was conducted annually in 27 hematology wards, using a protocol derived from the HAI-Net ICU ECDC protocol (2020-2024).

Objective: The study objective was to assess the efficacity of different surgical strategies for atrioesophageal fistula after catheter ablation of atrial fibrillation.
Methods: Between January 2010 and April 2023, all patients with a diagnosis of atrioesophageal fistula or pericardo-esophageal fistula after catheter ablation of atrial fibrillation were analyzed retrospectively from the French database EPITHOR. Patients without surgical management were excluded.
How Attribution of COVID-19 Crisis Responsibility Predicts Hong Kong Citizens' Intention to Accept Vaccination.
Vaccines (Basel)
November 2024
Department of Media and Communication, City University of Hong Kong, Kowloon Tong, Hong Kong.
Background: This study aims to illuminate the role of perceived crisis responsibility in shaping vaccination intention. By using the case of Hong Kong during the COVID-19 pandemic, we examined whether and how the allocation of crisis responsibility to the government predicts the public's intention to take vaccines, particularly by investigating its underlying mechanism.
Method And Results: Based on a population-representative sample of Hong Kong adults ( = 3188), our results indicated that (1) the attribution of crisis responsibility directly led to lower vaccination intention, and (2) it also had indirect influences on vaccination intention through trust and anger; specifically, the crisis attribution resulted in less willingness to take vaccines via a decreased trust in government health agencies.
An Update of Phenotypic-Genotypic IMNEPD Cases and a Bioinformatics Analysis of the New Gene Variants.
Genes (Basel)
November 2024
Unit of Human Biology and Genetics, The Triangle Regional Research and Development Center, Kafr Qari 3007500, Israel.
Background/objectives: Biallelic mutations in the gene are associated with a rare genetic disease known as infantile-onset multisystem neurologic, endocrine, and pancreatic disease (IMNEPD). In this study, we describe a new case carrying a previously identified mutation, provide an updated analysis of the relative frequencies of the clinical features across all published cases (including the three latest studies), and perform a bioinformatics analysis of the newly identified PTRH2 protein variants from a structural perspective.
Methods: Clinical examination of the patients was carried out, and genetic testing was performed using a genome sequencing strategy.
