Introduction: Studies have found that psychological treatments produce positive clinical outcomes for many problems experienced by youth. However, there is limited research on whether therapist adherence and competence in delivering these treatments are related to differential clinical outcomes.
Method: We examined the relationship of therapist adherence and competence to clinical outcomes in a sample of 51 youth aged 7-14 years (M age = 10.36, SD = 1.90; 86.3% white; 60.8% male) treated for anxiety disorders with a manualized individual cognitive-behavioral therapy. Adherence and competence were measured via coding of recorded treatment session content and outcomes were measured by caregiver and youth report across multiple timepoints. We used two-level mixed-effects regression models to test the degree to which adherence and competence predicted differential youth clinical outcomes.
Results: Across multiple caregiver- and child-reported symptom and diagnostic outcomes, we found no statistically significant relationship between adherence or competence and clinical outcomes.
Discussion: Although there was variability in both treatment integrity and clinical outcome, neither adherence to nor competence in youth anxiety treatment was related to clinical outcomes for youth with anxiety disorders treated with individual cognitive-behavioral treatment (CBT) in a research clinic-based efficacy trial.

Placental malaria is characterized by the massive accumulation and sequestration of infected erythrocytes in the placental intervillous blood spaces, causing severe birth outcomes. The variant surface antigen VAR2CSA is associated with Plasmodium falciparum sequestration in the placenta via its capacity to adhere to chondroitin sulfate A. We have previously shown that the extracellular region of VAR2CSA is phosphorylated on several residues and that the phosphorylation enhances the adhesive properties of CSA-binding infected erythrocytes.

Primary and secondary antibody deficiencies (PAD and SAD) are amongst the most prevalent immunodeficiency syndromes, often necessitating long-term immune globulin replacement therapy (IRT). Both intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG) and subcutaneous immunoglobulin (SCIG) have demonstrated efficacy in antibody deficiency. Comparative analyses of these two routes of administration are limited to nurse-administered IVIG and home therapy with self-administered SCIG.

Background: Patients with ischemic stroke (IS) or TIA face an elevated cardiovascular risk, warranting intensive lipid-lowering therapy. Despite recommendations, adherence to guidelines is suboptimal, leading to frequent undertreatment. This study aims to evaluate the statin use after IS and TIA.

Ghrelin, a peptide hormone primarily produced in the enteroendocrine cells of the gastrointestinal tract, plays a vital role in regulating food intake, and energy balance in avian species. This review examines the complex interactions between ghrelin and the central signaling pathways associated with hunger regulation in birds. In contrast to mammals, where ghrelin typically promotes feeding behavior, its effects in birds appear more nuanced, exhibiting anorexigenic properties under certain conditions.

Several studies have reported associations between specific heavy metals and essential trace elements and acute myocardial infarction (AMI). However, there is limited understanding of the relationships between trace elements and AMI in real-life co-exposure scenarios, where multiple elements may interact simultaneously. This cross-sectional study measured serum levels of 56 trace elements using inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry.
