Objectives: The present review aims to describe the main steps for completing a psychiatric PhD thesis with success.
Methods: A selective review of the literature and the author's experience as a psychiatrist completing a PhD.
Results: Deciding upon a topic, choosing a mentor, organising your time, persevering and remaining motivated are the key elements.
Conclusions: Preparedness and diligence lead the way towards a PhD. This advice is also relevant for those undertaking research at any stage of their career.

Joint action partners modulate the first step of an action sequence to communicate a distal goal.

When two co-actors perform a joint action, they often communicatively modulate their instrumental actions so as to facilitate each other's predictions of their immediate, proximal goals. Here, we ask whether co-actors would also engage in such "sensorimotor communication" for distal goals, specifically those that result from a two-step action sequence. To address this question, we asked pairs of participants to work together to deliver an animated box to one of two delivery locations displayed on a computer screen.

Non-communicable diseases (NCDs) are the leading cause of global mortality. The WHO projects a rise in NCD-related deaths from 36 million in 2018 to 55 million by 2030, with developing countries being the most affected. Effective community-based primary health care (PHC) can reduce the burden of chronic diseases of lifestyle (CDLs).

Despite the WHO recommendations in favor of breastfeeding, most infants receive infant formulas (IFs), which are complex matrices involving numerous ingredients and processing steps. Our aim was to understand the impact of the quality of the protein ingredient in IFs on gut microbiota and physiology, blood metabolites and brain gene expression. Three IFs were produced using whey proteins (WPs) from cheese whey (IF-A) or ideal whey (IFs-C and -D) and caseins, either in a micellar form (IFs-A and -C) or partly in a non-micellar form (IF-D).

Background: Children with physical disabilities (Having this type of disability can be due to any of the reasons such as cerebral palsy, genetic, developmental, neurodevelopment and any other reasons that cause physical disability in the child) need rehabilitation services. Tele-rehabilitation is a practical approach to provide rehabilitation services for children with rapid and continuous access. This approach has been used more recently and overcomes the limitations of conventional rehabilitation, which involves wasting time, traveling distance, and cost.

The phase-dependent modulation pattern of the tibialis anterior (TA) flexion reflex was characterized during treadmill walking while transspinal stimulation was delivered at 15, 30, and 50 Hz above and below paresthesia in healthy participants. The flexion reflex was elicited following medial arch foot stimulation with a 30 ms (300 Hz) pulse train. During treadmill walking, the flexion reflex was evoked in the right leg every 3 to 5 steps, and stimuli were randomly dispersed across the step cycle that was divided into 16 equal bins.
