This study integrates communication, motivational, and behavioral elements to identify factors that lead to the use of key information seeking strategies people employ to confirm or avoid suspicions about a partner's potential cheating. Individuals (N = 246) who suspected a partner's infidelity reported engaging in five general suspicion confirmation strategies: conversation, intrusion, snooping, surveillance, and avoidance. SEM results revealed that individuals who reported more suspicious partner behavior, greater suspicion and uncertainty about a partner's infidelity, suspicion-related anxiety, and a stronger desire to confirm their suspicions reported using the suspicion confirmation and avoidance strategies more often.

Background: Spinal cord vascular malformations (SCVMs) in children are relatively rare and present unique challenges due to their distinct physiological characteristics. These malformations often manifest with nonspecific clinical symptoms, increasing the likelihood of misdiagnosis. The treatment of pediatric SCVMs requires a tailored approach, with the choice between microsurgical intervention and endovascular embolization depending on the specific type of malformation and individual patient factors.

Cholesterol ester storage disease (CESD) is a rare autosomal recessive lysosomal storage disorder caused by mutations in the LIPA gene, leading to reduced lysosomal acid lipase activity, cholesterol ester accumulation, and systemic manifestations including liver dysfunction and dyslipidemia. We report the case of a 25-year-old male presenting with subacute jaundice, hyperbilirubinemia (total bilirubin 51 mg/dL, predominantly direct), and dyslipidemia characterized by elevated total cholesterol and low HDL cholesterol levels. Initial diagnostic workup for acute hepatitis and liver dysfunction, including serological and imaging studies, was unremarkable.
