Comments on an article by T. M. S. Neal (see record 2018-05574-001). Drawing out the distinctions and differences between forensic and correctional psychology, Neal (2018) provides a compelling overview of these separate but related subfields, yet the specialized postdoctoral training model described for forensic psychology is not necessary for the development of correctional psychologists. This comment elucidates 3 reasons why generalist training in an applied psychology setting provides a better model. The absence of an accumulated and advanced scientific base of specialized practice, the delivery of services to psychologically healthy and pathological populations, and the need for supervised practice in an applied setting are each described and point to a developmental model in which generalist skills in an applied setting are all suitable as an alternate to the specialization training model.

General Practice chest x-ray rate is associated with earlier lung cancer diagnosis and reduced all-cause mortality: a retrospective observational study.
Br J Gen Pract
December 2024
University College London, London, United Kingdom.
Background: Evidence on whether general practice rates of investigation in symptomatic patients using chest x-ray (CXR) affects outcomes is equivocal.
Aim: Determine if there is an association between rates of general practice (GP) requested CXR and lung cancer outcomes.
Design And Setting: Retrospective observational study (England) Methods: Cancer registry data for patients diagnosed with lung cancer 2014-2018 was linked to data on GP CXRs 2013-2017.

Background Pulmonary function tests are central to diagnosis and monitoring of respiratory diseases but do not provide information on regional lung function heterogeneity. Fluorine 19 (F) MRI of inhaled perfluoropropane permits quantitative and spatially localized assessment of pulmonary ventilation properties without tracer gas hyperpolarization. Purpose To assess regional lung ventilation properties using F MRI of inhaled perfluoropropane in participants with asthma, participants with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), and healthy participants, including quantitative evaluation of bronchodilator response in participants with respiratory disease.

Purpose: Although financial toxicity from cancer care is well documented, how cancer and other high-mortality chronic diseases affect credit overuse and high-risk borrowing remains unknown.
Methods: We retrospectively analyzed households in the 2012-2018 Health and Retirement Study. Outcomes included nonhousing financial debt and credit card debt.
Middle-range scores from the patient determined disease steps scale reflect varying levels of walking dysfunction in multiple sclerosis.
BMC Neurol
October 2024
Department of Biostatistics, University of Alabama at Birmingham, Birmingham, AL, USA.
Article Synopsis
- Multiple sclerosis (MS) significantly impacts mobility in young and middle-aged adults, and the Patient Determined Disease Steps (PDDS) scale is used to measure disability levels, particularly in terms of walking function.
- This study aimed to determine if the middle-range PDDS scores accurately represent different levels of walking dysfunction through a detailed analysis involving various tests and scales among 374 participants.
- Results indicated strong correlations between PDDS and various walking measurements (like EDSS and T25FW), suggesting that the PDDS can effectively reflect varied walking disabilities in MS patients, though its relationship with fatigue and quality of life is weaker.
Risk-prediction models in postmenopausal patients with symptoms of suspected ovarian cancer in the UK (ROCkeTS): a multicentre, prospective diagnostic accuracy study.
Lancet Oncol
October 2024
Institute of Applied Health Research, University of Birmingham, Birmingham, UK; NIHR Birmingham Biomedical Research Centre, University Hospitals Birmingham NHS Foundation Trust, University of Birmingham, Birmingham, UK.
Article Synopsis
- - The ROCkeTS study aimed to find the best diagnostic test for ovarian cancer in symptomatic postmenopausal women by comparing multiple risk-prediction models in a real-world setting.
- - Researchers recruited women aged 16-90 with non-specific symptoms and abnormal test results from 23 UK hospitals, excluding those with certain conditions like normal CA125 levels or other cancers.
- - The study involved various diagnostic models and tests, including CA125 levels and ultrasound assessments, to evaluate their effectiveness in predicting ovarian cancer risk among the participants.
