"She Is Stand-Offish Like That": Black Adults' Recognition of Child Behaviors Associated with Autism Spectrum Disorder.

Objective: The purpose of this study is to identify the sociocultural factors in the Black community that contribute to a delay in identification of Black children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD).

Methods: Four focus groups with parents of typically developing children were conducted at 2 Black Churches using a community-partnered participatory research approach and the socioecological model. Participants completed sociodemographic surveys, viewed CDC Autism Training Videos of Black children with ASD, and reported on their behavioral observations.

Use of term reference infants in assessing the developmental outcome of extremely preterm infants: lessons learned in a multicenter study.

Objective: Extremely preterm (EP) impairment rates are likely underestimated using the Bayley III norm-based thresholds scores and may be better assessed relative to concurrent healthy term reference (TR) infants born in the same hospital.

Study Design: Blinded, certified examiners in the Neonatal Research Network (NRN) evaluated EP survivors and a sample of healthy TR infants recruited near the 2-year assessment age.

Results: We assessed 1452 EP infants and 183 TR infants.

Clinical and Biomechanical Outcomes of Suture Button Fixation for Ligamentous Lisfranc Injury: A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis.

Background: Flexible ligamentous fixation has increased in popularity for the treatment of ligamentous Lisfranc injury, but the optimal fixation strategy is unclear.

Purpose: To review the biomechanical, clinical, and radiographic results of ligamentous Lisfranc injuries treated with flexible fixation.

Study Design: Systematic review; Level of evidence, 4.

The Many Hosts of Mycobacteria 9 (MHM9): A conference report.

The Many Hosts of Mycobacteria (MHM) meeting series brings together basic scientists, clinicians and veterinarians to promote robust discussion and dissemination of recent advances in our knowledge of numerous mycobacterial diseases, including human and bovine tuberculosis (TB), nontuberculous mycobacteria (NTM) infection, Hansen's disease (leprosy), Buruli ulcer and Johne's disease. The 9th MHM conference (MHM9) was held in July 2022 at The Ohio State University (OSU) and centered around the theme of "Confounders of Mycobacterial Disease." Confounders can and often do drive the transmission of mycobacterial diseases, as well as impact surveillance and treatment outcomes.

The First Exploratory Personalized Medicine Approach to Improve Bariatric Surgery Outcomes Utilizing Psychosocial and Genetic Risk Assessments: Encouraging Clinical Research.

It is predicted that by 2030, globally, an estimated 2.16 billion adults will be overweight, and 1.12 billion will be obese.

Impact of Telemedicine on Delivery of Pediatric Inflammatory Bowel Disease Care.

Objectives: Outpatient inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) care shifted from office visits (OVs) to a model with integrated telemedicine during the 2020 COVID-19 pandemic. We describe the impact of this shift on delivery of pediatric IBD care.

Methods: We collected electronic medical record data from office and telemedicine visits for pediatric patients with IBD at a single center from April 2019 to December 2020.

The gut protist Tritrichomonas arnold restrains virus-mediated loss of oral tolerance by modulating dietary antigen-presenting dendritic cells.

Loss of oral tolerance (LOT) to gluten, driven by dendritic cell (DC) priming of gluten-specific T helper 1 (Th1) cell immune responses, is a hallmark of celiac disease (CeD) and can be triggered by enteric viral infections. Whether certain commensals can moderate virus-mediated LOT remains elusive. Here, using a mouse model of virus-mediated LOT, we discovered that the gut-colonizing protist Tritrichomonas (T.

Advances and prospects for the Human BioMolecular Atlas Program (HuBMAP).

The Human BioMolecular Atlas Program (HuBMAP) aims to create a multi-scale spatial atlas of the healthy human body at single-cell resolution by applying advanced technologies and disseminating resources to the community. As the HuBMAP moves past its first phase, creating ontologies, protocols and pipelines, this Perspective introduces the production phase: the generation of reference spatial maps of functional tissue units across many organs from diverse populations and the creation of mapping tools and infrastructure to advance biomedical research.

SH2 domain protein E (SHE) and ABL signaling regulate blood vessel size.

Blood vessels in different vascular beds vary in lumen diameter, which is essential for their function and fluid flow along the vascular network. Molecular mechanisms involved in the formation of a vascular lumen of appropriate size, or tubulogenesis, are still only partially understood. protein was previously identified in a screen for proteins that interact with Abelson (Abl)-kinase.

Models of KPTN-related disorder implicate mTOR signalling in cognitive and overgrowth phenotypes.

KPTN-related disorder is an autosomal recessive disorder associated with germline variants in KPTN (previously known as kaptin), a component of the mTOR regulatory complex KICSTOR. To gain further insights into the pathogenesis of KPTN-related disorder, we analysed mouse knockout and human stem cell KPTN loss-of-function models. Kptn -/- mice display many of the key KPTN-related disorder phenotypes, including brain overgrowth, behavioural abnormalities, and cognitive deficits.

CD63/81 Small Extracellular Vesicles in the Aqueous Humor are Retinoblastoma Associated.

Purpose: Although biopsy is contraindicated in retinoblastoma (RB), the aqueous humor (AH) is a robust liquid biopsy source of molecular tumor information, facilitating biomarker discovery. Small extracellular vesicles (sEVs), promising biomarker candidates across multiple cancers, were recently identified in RB AH, but relationships between sEVs and RB clinical features are unknown.

Methods: We analyzed sEVs in 37 AH samples from 18 RB eyes of varying International Intraocular Retinoblastoma Classification (IIRC) groups and explored clinical correlations.

Adult congenital heart disease update.

In this issue of Current Problems in Pediatric and Adolescent Health Care, we discuss the field of Adult Congenital Heart Disease (ACHD) is addressed. Following a general overview of the subject provided, a more in-depth and focused review of the field provided by Dr. Curt Daniels (member of the Adult Congenital Heart Association National Conference Leadership Committee, Chair of the Adult Congenital Heart Association Accreditation Steering Committee and Co-Chair of the ACC, ACPC and ACHD Work Group).

A multi-site pilot randomized clinical trial of the Treatment and Education Approach for Childhood-onset Lupus (TEACH) program: study design and COVID-19 adaptations.

Background: Childhood-onset Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (cSLE) is an autoimmune disease associated with fatigue, mood symptoms, and pain. Fortunately, these symptoms are potentially modifiable with psychological intervention such as cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT). The Treatment and Education Approach for Childhood-onset Lupus (TEACH) program is a CBT intervention developed to target these symptoms for adolescents and young adults with cSLE.

Pharmacokinetics and safety of prolonged paracetamol treatment in neonates: An interventional cohort study.

Aims: To investigate the pharmacokinetics and safety of prolonged paracetamol use (>72 h) for neonatal pain.

Methods: Neonates were included if they received paracetamol orally or intravenously for pain treatment. A total of 126 samples were collected.

Pregnancy-associated systemic gene expression compared to a pre-pregnancy baseline, among healthy women with term pregnancies.

Background: Pregnancy is known to induce extensive biological changes in the healthy mother. Little is known, however, about what these changes are at the molecular level. We have examined systemic expression changes in protein-coding genes and long non-coding (lnc) RNAs during and after pregnancy, compared to before pregnancy, among healthy women with term pregnancies.
