This article discusses a new approach for the conduct of focus groups in health research. Identifying ways to educate and inform participants about topic interest prior group discussion can promote more quality data from informed opinions. Data on this deliberative are provided research within three federally funded studies. As healthcare continues improve scientific technological advancements, educating collection these complexities is essential gather data.
After newborn screening has been completed, many states retain residual dried blood samples for various purposes, including program evaluation, quality assurance, and biomedical research. The extent to which possess legal authority (DBS) use them purposes unrelated is unclear.The purpose of this study was evaluate state laws regarding the retention DBS.State statutes regulations related all 50 plus District Columbia were accessed online between November 2008 December 2009 reviewed by 2...
Rapid, high throughput diagnostics are a valuable tool, allowing the detection of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) in populations so as to identify and isolate people with asymptomatic symptomatic infections. Reagent shortages restricted access testing solutions have limited effectiveness conventional assays such quantitative RT-PCR (RT-qPCR), particularly throughout first months disease 2019 pandemic. We investigated use LamPORE, where loop-mediated isothermal...
Many state newborn screening (NBS) programs retain residual NBS bloodspots after the completion of screening. Potential uses for specimens include laboratory quality assurance, biomedical research, and, rarely, forensic applications. Our objective was to evaluate public opinion about policies and practices relevant retention use research.
A pilot study assessed an electronic informed consent model within a randomized controlled trial (RCT). Participants who were recruited for the parent RCT project randomly selected and to either group ( n = 32) or simplified paper-based 30). Results from reported significantly higher understanding of purpose study, alternatives participation, contact if they had questions concerns about study. However, participants in control mean scores on some survey items. This research suggests that...
The aim of this study was to evaluate the absolute risk for children younger than 4 years age with asymptomatic oropharyngeal carriage Kingella kingae sustain an osteoarticular infection. rate K. in mucosa 9% among healthy children, and carrier develop infection due Kingae estimated be lower 1%.
There is broad recognition of the need for population-based research to assess safety and efficacy newborn screening (NBS) conditions that are not on current panels. However, prospective poses significant ethical, regulatory, logistical challenges. In context NBS, there have been a variety approaches address parental decision-making in pilot studies new tests or conditions. This article presents an ethical legal analysis role permission by Bioethics Legal Work Group Newborn Screening...
BackgroundThis paper reports on the outcomes of a proof-of-principle study for Exposure Therapy Consortium, global network researchers and clinicians who work to improve effectiveness uptake exposure therapy. The aimed test feasibility consortium's big-team science approach hypothesis that adding post-exposure processing focused enhancing threat reappraisal would enhance efficacy one-session large-group interoceptive therapy protocol reducing anxiety sensitivity.MethodsThe involved...
The development and evaluation of Internet-delivered cognitive behavioral therapy (iCBT) interventions provides a potential solution for current limitations in the acceptability, availability, accessibility mental health care young people with obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD). Preliminary results support effectiveness therapist-assisted iCBT OCD; however, no previous studies have examined completely self-guided OCD people.We aimed to conduct preliminary OCD? Not Me! program reducing...
Background: Mindfulness-based cognitive therapy (MBCT) has evidence of efficacy in a range populations, but few studies to date have reported on MBCT for treatment anxious and depressive symptoms Parkinson's disease (PD). Aims: The aim this study was examine the modified reducing anxiety depression improving quality life PD. Method: Thirty-six individuals with PD were randomly assigned either or waitlist control. Changes anxiety, compared at group level using generalized linear mixed models...

Objectives Bacterial carriage in the upper respiratory tract is usually asymptomatic but can lead to infection (RTI), meningitis and septicaemia. We aimed provide a baseline measure of Streptococcus pneumoniae , Moraxella catarrhalis Pseudomonas aeruginosa Staphylococcus aureus Haemophilus influenzae Neisseria meningitidis within community. Self-swabbing healthcare professional (HCP) swabbing were compared. Design Cross-sectional study. Setting Individuals registered at 20 general...
