As brain-machine interfaces (BMI) are growingly used in clinical settings, understanding how to apply brain stimulation is increasingly important. Despite the emergence of optogenetic techniques, ethical and medical concerns suggest that interventions that are safe and non-invasive, such as Transcranial Alternating Current Stimulation (tACS), are more likely to be employed in human in the near future. Consequently, the question of how and where to apply current stimulation is becoming increasingly important for the efficient neuromodulation of both neurological and psychiatric disorders.

Purpose: Antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) harboring topoisomerase I (TOP1) inhibitor payloads have improved survival for patients with metastatic breast cancer (MBC). However, knowledge of ADC resistance mechanisms and potential impact on sequential use of ADCs is limited. Here, we report the incidence and characterization of TOP1 mutations arising in the setting of ADC resistance in MBC.

Puberty is a particularly vulnerable time for individuals with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) during which baseline challenges are exacerbated, functioning often deteriorates, and additional barriers emerge. Specific concerns include increased vulnerability, decreased safety, and increased mood and behavioral disturbances. Youth with ASD need guidance and explicit instruction/skill development on topics such as hygiene/self-care, appropriate sexual activity, and menstruation management.

Objectives: Somatic symptom and related disorders (SSRDs) are complex disorders that are commonly encountered in tertiary paediatric settings. Despite this, little is known about ED use prior to hospital admission. We aimed to describe the pattern of ED use in a cohort of children and adolescents who were subsequently admitted to hospital with SSRD and to identify factors associated with ED presentations.
