Introduction: Cigarette smoking is an important risk factor in the development of dyspnea. Programs designed to strengthen the respiratory muscles can improve dyspnea in people with or without lung disease. As a first step in understanding the feasibility of offering a respiratory muscle training (RMT) program to people who are seeking help to try to quit smoking, we asked callers who contacted the New York State Quitline about their dyspnea and potential interest in a home-based RMT program.

Trends in Formulary Restrictions for Long-Acting Injectable Antipsychotic Medications Among Medicare Drug Plans, 2019-2023.

Psychiatr Serv

January 2025

Department of Psychiatry and Behavioral Neuroscience (Bunting, Gray), Department of Pharmacy (Gray), and Pritzker School of Medicine (Chalmers), University of Chicago, Chicago; Department of Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences, Emory University School of Medicine, Atlanta (Cotes); Department of Psychiatry, University of Washington, Seattle (Chalmers); Department of Health Management and Policy, School of Public Health, University of Michigan, Ann Arbor (Nguyen).

Objective: Long-acting injectable antipsychotics (LAIAPs) enable safe and effective long-term management of chronic psychotic disorders but are underused in clinical practice. The authors examined whether Medicare formulary restrictions (prior authorization [PA] or step therapy) impose barriers to LAIAP uptake.

Methods: The authors analyzed formulary restrictions and patient cost-sharing for several LAIAPs and estimated the percentage of plans (N=2,494 were available per year) applying formulary restrictions.

The Explo'Santé mixed methods protocol: an interventional research school health promotion project in France.

Arch Public Health

January 2025

Laboratory Health Systemic Process (P2S), Research Unit, UR4129, University Claude Bernard Lyon 1, University of Lyon, 11 rue Guillaume Paradin, Lyon, 69008, France.

Background: According to WHO, "noncommunicable diseases (NCDs) kill 41 million people" annually, as the primary cause of death globally. WHO's Global Action Plan for the prevention and control of NCDs 2013-2020 (extended) tackles this issue and its implications regarding inequalities between countries and populations. Based on combined behavioural, environmental and policy approaches, health promotion aims to reduce health inequities and address health determinants through 3 strategies: education, prevention and protection.

Key Laboratory of Breeding Biotechnology and Sustainable Aquaculture, Institute of Oceanology, Chinese Academy of Sciences, Qingdao, China.

Background: Due to sexual dimorphism in growth of penaeid shrimp, all-female cultivation is desirable for the aquaculture industry. 17β-estradiol (E2) has the potential to induce the male-to-female sex reversal of decapod species. However, the mechanisms behind it remain poorly understood.

H, N, C backbone resonance assignment of human Alkbh7.

Biomol NMR Assign

January 2025

Department of Chemistry, Iowa State University, Hach Hall, 2438 Pammel Drive, Ames, IA, 50011, USA.

The Alkbh7 protein, a member of the Alkylation B (AlkB) family of dioxygenases, plays a crucial role in epigenetic regulation of cellular metabolism. This paper focuses on the NMR backbone resonance assignment of Alkbh7, a fundamental step in understanding its three-dimensional structure and dynamic behavior at the atomic level. Herein, we report the backbone H, N, C chemical shift assignment of the full-length human Alkbh7.
