This randomized controlled trial feasibility study aimed to investigate a single-session mindset intervention, incorporating third-wave constructs, within educational settings as a universal tool to promote emotional wellbeing.

Eighty adolescents (age M = 16.63) were randomized to the 30-mincomputer intervention or a usual curriculum waitlist. Outcome measures were administered at baseline, posttreatment, 4-week, and 8-week follow-ups.

Student feedback about the intervention and trial procedure was mainly positive. Participantsengaged with the intervention content and data were suggestive of possible small-large intervention effects for targeted mechanisms of personality mindset and psychological flexibility. Between-group differences over time across wellbeing outcomes of self-compassion, self-esteem, low mood, and anxiety also yielded some promising results, though assessments of reliable change were less clear. No harm was reported.

The intervention and study design were deemed feasible, though areas for improvement were noted. A full-scale trial to determine effectiveness is warranted.

The ease of online searching has diminished people's expectations of privacy and the ability to control access to information about oneself, which can alter basic assumptions about the therapy relationship.

This grounded theory study explored psychotherapists' experiences of searching online for patients and being searched for by patients, among 28 clinicians of primarily psychodynamic orientation.

Many therapists search online for information about patients, but often minimize or rationalize this action and do not share it with their patients. Meanwhile, while they believe their patients search for them, they find it difficult to raise the topic directly in therapy. Thus, when it comes to online searching and discovery of information, an air of secrecy pervades the therapeutic relationship.

Despite the serious implications that the pervasiveness of online searching has for the treatment relationship, therapists lack sufficient support for exploring their motivations, curiosities, and urges surrounding this action.

CT-P13, an infliximab (IFX) biosimilar, was approved for treatment of inflammatory bowel disease. However, no comparison with the originator IFX in this indication has been conducted in Japan where endemic levels of tuberculosis and hepatitis virus infection are not low. We evaluated the safety and efficacy in real-world data of CT-P13 and compared with originator IFX data in Japan.

In a prospective post-marketing surveillance (PMS) study, patients who received CT-P13 in a 28-month period from January 2015 were followed up for 2years. By conducting Japanese administrative database search (DBS) for the same period of PMS, data of the originator IFX including treatment persistence, tuberculosis incidence, and liver injury were analyzed retrospectively and compared with the corresponding PMS data of CT-P13.

CT-P13 persistence in PMS (n=640) and IFX persistence in DBS (n=4113) were almost similar between patients who switched from the originator and patients who continued on the originator, and also between the biologics-naïve patient groups. There were no differences in the incidences of tuberculosis and hepatic injury (Tuberculosis 2 patients [0.31%] with CT-P13, 10 patients [0.24%] with the originator, P=0.75; Hepatic injury 18.5% with CT-P13, 15.4% with the originator, P=0.22). Most of the patients with hepatic injury continued treatment in PMS and DBS at similar rates (80.8% vs 83.6%, P=0.65).

The results of long-term PMS of CT-P13 compared with external reference data from an administrative database suggested that the biosimilar and its originator were comparably useful in real-world clinical practice.

This study investigates the effect on H2 production by N2 fixing cyanobacteria when they are exposed to either air or a gas mixture consisting of argon, oxygen, and carbon dioxide (ArO2 CO2 ). In the absence of N2 , nitrogenase diverts the flow of electrons to the production of H2 , which becomes a measure of Total Nitrogenase Activity (TNA). This method of argon-induced hydrogen production (AIHP) is much less commonly used to infer rates of N2 fixation than the acetylene reduction (AR) assay. We provide here a full evaluation of the AIHP method and demonstrate its ability to achieve high-resolution measurements of TNA in a gas exchange flow-through system. Complete diel profiles of H2 production were obtained for N2 fixing cyanobacteria despite the absence of N2 that broadly reproduced the temporal patterns observed by the AR assay. Comparison of H2 production under air versus ArO2 CO2 revealed the efficiency of electron usage during N2 fixation and place these findings in the broader context of cell metabolism. Ultimately, AIHP is demonstrated to be a viable alternative to the AR assay with several additional merits that provide an insight into cell physiology and promise for successful field application.Here, we review the molecular mechanism and pharmacokinetics of flavonoids in the treatment of resistant EGF receptor (EGFR)-mutated non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and particularly the possible mechanism(s) of delicaflavone, a biflavonoid extracted from Selaginella doederleinii Hieron. EGFR TK inhibitors (EGFR-TKI) are ubiquitously used in the treatment of NSCLC bearing EGFR mutations. However, patients treated with EGFR-TKI inevitably and continuously develop resistance. In laboratory studies, flavonoids, as potential adjuvants for cancer chemotherapy, exhibited anti-cancer properties such as inhibition of chemoresistance by interference with ABC transporters-induced drug efflux, curbing of c-MET amplification, or reversal of T790M mutation-mediated resistance. The current review aims at summarizing the association between the anti-cancer potentials of flavonoids and their possible regulatory roles in certain types of mutation that could trigger EGFR-TKI resistance in NSCLC. Potential practical applications of these phytochemicals, as well as the relevant pharmacokinetics, are also discussed.
