Importance: Spousal involvement in diabetes care is recommended theoretically, but effectiveness in clinical settings and among diverse populations is unclear.
Objective: To test the effect of a couple-based intervention among Chinese older patients with type 2 diabetes and their spouses.
Design, Setting, And Participants: This multicenter randomized clinical trial comprised 2 arms: a couple-based intervention arm and an individual-based control.

Introduction: Primary care providers or clinicians (PCPs) have the potential to assist dermatologists in screening patients at risk for skin cancer, but require training to appropriately identify higher-risk patients, perform skin checks, recognize and biopsy concerning lesions, interpret pathology results, document the exam, and bill for the service. Very few validated dermatology training programs exist for PCPs and those that are available focus primarily on one emphasis area, which results in variable efficacy and single-topic limited scope.
Methods: We have created a free, online, continuing education program (Melanoma Toolkit for Early Detection, MTED) that allows learners to choose from a variety of multimedia tools (image recognition, videos, written material, in-person seminars, self-tests, etc.

Introduction: Health literacy is considered a determinant of several health-related behaviors and outcomes. Health literacy can be seen as a particularly relevant resource for health maintenance and promotion for young adults at the beginning of their challenging vocational training in nursing. However, the underlying mechanisms and the roles of other influencing factors such as self-efficacy remain unclear and need to be understood to successfully tailor interventions.

Introduction: Diagnosis in dermatology is primarily based on the assessment and description of the clinical appearance of the skin. The German medical literature focuses almost exclusively on white skin, so it is questionable whether this one-sided training is sufficient to do justice to all patients since the diversity of skin types increases.
Methods: Online survey among German dermatologists regarding training and experience in the diagnosis of dark skin, difficulties in recognizing dermatoses and the desire for training and further education in skin diseases of "skin of color".

Ortho-quinone methides (o-QMs), generated by oxidative dehydration of clavatol, are highly reactive intermediates in biosynthesis that give rise to a variety of clavatol-containing pseudonatural products (PNPs) in fungi through intra- and intermolecular nonenzymatic cyclization/addition reaction, and some compounds have significant biological activities. Here we report our genome mining efforts on a cryptic clavatol biosynthetic gene cluster (BGC) from an ascidian-derived fungus Diaporthe sp. SYSU-MS4722.
