Although we do not yet know how or when the story of COVID-19 ends, Canadians are welcoming the summer of 2022 with the anticipation of the first prolonged period of near normalcy in two-and-a-half years. This sense of renewal coincides with the start of our roles as the new co-editors-in-chief of Healthcare Quarterly (HQ). Building on HQ's 25 years of excellence in sharing leading practices in health services delivery and policy, we are looking forward to taking the journal in new directions. Although both of us of have had long careers in healthcare and have experienced many cycles of change, this particular point in time feels different. Despite the devastating aftermath of this global pandemic, the disruption comes with an extraordinary level of opportunity. It is in thinking about the future state that we have embraced our new leadership roles with HQ.

'Clarifying', 'assuming', and 'reducing' stigma: a commentary on stigma in genetics.

The concept of stigma has been applied across many disciplines. Within the context of health and illness, research on stigma tells familiar stories about the impact of a diagnosis on the lives of individuals and their families, and the perceived negative effects of stigma on them and their relationships. This can result in public and private efforts to 'reduce' stigma for certain social groups by raising awareness and sharing more positive stories about their lives.

International students have become one of the main populations in Australian universities. However, due to the COVID-19 pandemic, many international students decided to go to other countries and regions for their higher education due to the border control policies in Australia. Based on the social cognitive career and motivation theory, this study explored the motivations and reasons why Chinese postgraduate international students decided to return to Australia after the Australian government officially re-opened the border for on-campus and face-to-face education and why Chinese postgraduate international students decided to study in Australia instead of other countries, particularly during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Neuroimaging Research Unit, Division of Neuroscience, IRCCS San Raffaele Scientific Institute, Milan, Italy.
Article Synopsis
- Poor affect recognition is an early indicator of frontotemporal dementia (FTD), and this study used the Comprehensive Affect Testing System (CATS-A) to assess emotional dysfunction in FTD patients compared to healthy controls.
- The study involved 139 FTD patients of various subtypes and tested them alongside 116 healthy controls, measuring their Affective Recognition Quotient (ARQ) to evaluate emotional recognition accuracy.
- Results showed that the CATS-A effectively differentiated between FTD patients and healthy controls with high accuracy (AUC 0.89) and had robust internal reliability, suggesting it's a valuable clinical tool for assessing emotional dysfunction in FTD.
I can't feel your face: callous-unemotional traits, social anxiety, and approach-avoidance behaviour in conduct disorder.

Behavioural Science Institute, Radboud-University Nijmegen, 500 HB, Nijmegen, The Netherlands.
Article Synopsis
- The study investigates interpersonal behavior in children and adolescents with conduct disorder by examining both explicit and implicit interactions in a virtual reality setting.
- Results show that while typically developing children modify their personal space based on the emotional expressions of virtual peers, those with conduct disorder do not demonstrate this adaptive behavior.
- The lack of adjustment in interpersonal distance among conduct disorder patients is linked to heightened callous-unemotional traits and social anxiety.
