Article Abstract
Objective: Our understanding of the role of parental involvement in academic outcomes for children with ADHD is limited, with mixed evidence suggesting a positive association between parental involvement and academic achievement for pediatric ADHD but limited evidence regarding how this varies based on ADHD symptom severity, ADHD symptom domains, or co-occurring ODD symptoms. In this context, the present study aimed to examine the effects of parental involvement, ADHD symptoms, and comorbid ODD on children's overall, reading, and math achievement.
Method: A well-characterized clinically-evaluated sample of 162 children recruited through a university-based children's learning/behavioral health clinic and community resources (ages 8-13; 50 girls; 69% Caucasian/Non-Hispanic) were administered standardized academic achievement tests, with parents and teachers completing measures of parental involvement and ADHD symptoms, respectively.
Results: Inattention, but not hyperactivity-impulsivity, was associated with lower academic achievement in all tested models (β= -.16 to -.22, all p < .03). Surprisingly, parental involvement had significant negative associations with math and overall academic achievement (β= -.13 to -.26, both p< .05) and did not moderate the relations between ADHD symptoms and academic achievement in any tested model. Comorbid ODD symptoms did not significantly predict academic achievement or interact with parental involvement in any tested model. These findings were robust to control for child IQ, age, sex, SES, anxiety, and depression.
Conclusion: Parental involvement may not serve as a protective factor against academic underachievement for children with clinically elevated ADHD symptoms, and may predict lower rather than higher academic achievement for clinically evaluated children in general.

5-Fluorouracil (5-FU) is one of the most common chemotherapeutic agents for colorectal cancer (CRC), but its application is often limited by resistance. Tripartite motif containing 23 (TRIM23) has been reported to be dysregulated in various tumors and involved in tumor progression and chemotherapy resistance. However, its relationship with CRC 5-FU resistance and the underlying mechanism are still unclear.

Understanding the experiences of unaccompanied youths in refugee foster care is important to tailor such systems to support the complex needs and desires of these youth. This instrumental case study sought to understand how a cohort of unaccompanied refugee youth experience refugee foster care as they navigate the "in-betweenness" of adolescence. Eight youth (ages 17-21) from Guatemala and Honduras, nine foster parents, and two staff were interviewed.

Musculoskeletal disorders are a series of diseases involving bone, muscle, cartilage, and tendon, mainly caused by chronic strain, degenerative changes, and structural damage due to trauma. The disorders limit the function of patients due to pain and significantly reduce their quality of life. In recent years, adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells have been extensively applied in regeneration medicine research due to their particular abilities of self-renewal, differentiation, and targeted homing and are more easily accessed compared with other sources.
