Objectives: Our objective was to assess the effects of mental health interventions for children, adolescents, and adults not quarantined or undergoing treatment due to COVID-19 infection.

Methods: We searched 9 databases (2 Chinese-language) from December 31, 2019, to March 22, 2021. We included randomised controlled trials of interventions to address COVID-19 mental health challenges among people not hospitalised or quarantined due to COVID-19 infection.

Anatomical variants and imaging artifacts on thoracic computed tomography (CT), when unrecognized as such, can lead to radiological misinterpretation and erroneous diagnosis. This is a concise review of 15 common CT diagnostic pitfalls due to anatomical variants and imaging artifacts which have potential to be misinterpreted as significant pathology, such as neoplasia, infection, traumatic injury, interstitial lung disease, pleural disease, or vascular lesions.

Objective: Our objective was to evaluate the outcomes of endovascular treatment in patients with moderate and severe claudication due to femoropopliteal disease, that is, disease of the superficial femoral and popliteal arteries.

Methods: A retrospective review of all patients with moderate and severe claudication (Rutherford 2 and 3) undergoing endovascular treatment for FP disease between January 2012 and December 2017 at two university-affiliated hospitals was performed. All procedures were performed by vascular surgeons.

Article Synopsis
  • The 2018/2019 Maternal Mental Health survey in Canada found that 18% of 7,085 mothers reported symptoms consistent with postpartum depression, as measured by the Edinburgh Postpartum Depression Scale (EPDS-5).
  • An analysis of 3,958 participants from 19 studies revealed that the true prevalence of major depression, as assessed by a structured interview (SCID), was around 9.2%, while the EPDS-5 indicated a higher prevalence of 16.2%.
  • The findings suggest that the EPDS-5 may overestimate the prevalence of major depression, highlighting the need for validated diagnostic interviews to accurately assess mental health in postpartum women.

On March 11, 2020, the World Health Organization declared infection related to a novel coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2) a pandemic. The role and impact of imaging predates this declaration and continues to change rapidly. This article is a consensus statement provided by the Canadian Society of Thoracic Radiology and the Canadian Association of Radiologists outlining the role of imaging in COVID-19 patients.

Background: The purpose of this study was to build radiogenomics models from texture signatures derived from computed tomography (CT) and F-FDG PET-CT (FDG PET-CT) images of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) with and without epidermal growth factor receptor () mutations.

Methods: Fifty patients diagnosed with NSCLC between 2011 and 2015 and with known mutation status were retrospectively identified. Texture features extracted from pretreatment CT and FDG PET-CT images by manual contouring of the primary tumor were used to develop multivariate logistic regression (LR) models to predict mutations in exon 19 and exon 20.
