Objective: We evaluated differential treatment effects on specific symptoms and their mediators for Cognitive Behavioral Analysis System of Psychotherapy (CBASP) and Supportive Psychotherapy (SP) in persistently depressed patients.
Method: We conducted a Bayesian mediation network intervention analysis with data from a randomized controlled trial comparing CBASP and SP. Three networks were calculated to investigate (1) differential treatment effects on specific symptoms, (2) differential treatment effects on the potential mediators interpersonal problems and social functioning, and (3) associations between change in symptoms and change in the potential mediators.
Results: First, we found no evidence that CBASP more strongly improves most depressive symptoms specifically, except minimal evidence of symptom-specific effects on sleeping problems and self-esteem. Second, no and minimal evidence for differential treatment effects on interpersonal problems and social functioning was shown, respectively. Third, interpersonal problems and social functioning were strongly related to depressive symptoms.
Conclusion: While CBASP showed superior treatment effects for overall symptom severity, this treatment might not be superior in improving specific symptoms and the potential mediators interpersonal problems and social functioning. Still, interpersonal problems and social functioning seem to play an important role for depression symptoms. Future research needs to further investigate potential working mechanisms of CBASP.

Cholinesterase (ChE) inhibitors are under consideration to be used in the treatment of cardiovascular pathologies. A prerequisite to advancing ChE inhibitors into the clinic is their thorough characterization in the heart. The aim here was to provide a detailed analysis of cardiac ChE to understand their molecular composition, localization, and physiological functions.

Safety, immunogenicity, and effectiveness of an mRNA-1273 50-μg booster were evaluated in adolescents (12-17 years), with and without pre-booster SARS-CoV-2 infection. Participants who had received the 2-dose mRNA-1273 100-µg primary series in the TeenCOVE trial (NCT04649151) were offered the mRNA-1273 50-μg booster. Primary objectives included safety and inference of effectiveness by establishing noninferiority of neutralizing antibody (nAb) responses after the booster compared with the nAb post-primary series of mRNA-1273 among young adults in COVE (NCT04470427).

Purpose: Tools that can reliably measure changes in the perception of tinnitus following interventions are lacking. The minimum masking level, defined as the lowest level at which tinnitus is completely masked, is a candidate for quantifying changes in tinnitus perception. In this study, we aimed to determine minimal clinically important differences for minimum masking level.

Background: Kentucky is within the top five leading states for breast mortality nationwide. This study investigates the association between neighborhood socioeconomic disadvantage and breast cancer outcomes, including surgical treatment, radiation therapy, chemotherapy, and survival, and how associations vary by race and ethnicity in Kentucky.
Methods: We conducted a retrospective cohort analysis using data from the Kentucky Cancer Registry (KCR) for breast cancer patients diagnosed between 2010 and 2017, with follow-up through December 31, 2022.

Importance: Rotator cuff tendinopathy represents the most prevalent cause of shoulder pain, the third most common musculoskeletal disorder after low back pain and knee pain.
Objective: The objective of this study was to determine the effectiveness of corticosteroid injection(s), alone or in combination with anesthetic injection or any other physical therapist interventions, compared to physical therapist interventions alone in adults with rotator cuff tendinopathy.
Design: This study was a systematic review and meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials.
