Introduction: Allogeneic stem cell transplantation (allo-HCT) involves a long trajectory with high risk of complications. In person-centred care (PCC), patients' needs, resources and the care relationship are central to the care process. Healthcare professionals' (HCPs) ratings of PCC have not previously been investigated in this context.
Objectives: The aim of this study was to investigate healthcare professionals' ratings and views of person-centred care in allo-HCT care, and associations with individual characteristics and targeted PCC education.
Design: Cross-sectional study, employing quantitative and qualitative methods.
Methods: 85 HCPs at two Swedish allo-HCT centres participated (80% women; mean age: 44 years, range: 23-72 years). A survey was conducted using the PCC Assessment Tool (P-CAT), containing 13 items, a total scale (min 13-max 65) and two subscales (I: min 8-max 40; II: min 5-max 25). Additionally, HCPs' written responses to four study-specific questions about PCC were collected.
Results: The mean for P-CAT total scale was 45.31, (subscale I: 28.41; subscale II: 16.90). Higher ratings of PCC were reported for assessment of patients' needs, discussion about how to provide PCC and patients' care, while time to provide PCC, the care environment and how the organization prevents providing PCC were rated lower. Higher age and targeted PCC education were associated with higher PCC ratings. HCPs described PCC as the patient being seen as a capable individual with their own resources, with PCC increasing patient and family involvement-giving higher satisfaction and tailored care for patients. However, HCPs reported time as a barrier for PCC.
Conclusion: HCPs' ratings of PCC in this context are high regarding discussing and assessing patients' needs, but there is room for improvement regarding organizational and environmental aspects. Targeted PCC education increases the level of PCC. HCPs' views of PCC partly reflect the foundations of PCC-patient's narrative, capability and involvement.

Objective: Bile acids may contribute to pathophysiologic markers of Alzheimer's disease, including disruptions of the executive control network (ECN) and the default mode network (DMN). Cognitive dysfunction is common in major depressive disorder (MDD), but whether bile acids impact these networks in MDD patients is unknown.
Methods: Resting state functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) scans and blood measures of four bile acids from 74 treatment-naïve adults with MDD were analyzed.

Working memory is crucial for daily life and is often impaired in neuropsychiatric conditions. Attempts to enhance it using transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) have shown mixed results, possibly due to large inter-individual variability. This study assessed whether baseline regional brain volume was associated with working memory performance following tDCS.

Background: Immunization against influenza and respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) protects pregnant individuals and their infants against infection via transplacental transport of immunoglobulin G (IgG). We sought to evaluate the quantity and efficiency of maternal influenza- and RSV-specific IgG transfer in pregnancies with preterm and full-term deliveries.
Methods: Delivery samples from 115 maternal-infant pairs (2018-2021) were analyzed for RSV prefusion F and IAV-H3 and IAV-H1 antibodies using electrochemiluminescence assays.
Is telepractice effective in speech therapy for children with cleft lip and palate during the COVID-19 pandemic?

Background: The ongoing COVID-19 pandemic and the current shortage of speech-language pathologists in Thailand have limited access to speech services for children with cleft palate with or without cleft lip (CP± L). A combination of telepractice (TP) and face-to-face therapy could address the lack of continuous service and improve accessibility to speech therapy providers. This study aimed to compare the percentage of consonants correct (PCC) before and after speech therapy in children with CP± L.
