Co-designing a low-intensity psychological therapy for fear of recurrence in psychosis using translational learning from fear of recurrence in oncology: protocol for intervention development for future testing in a feasibility study.

Introduction: Fear of recurrence is a transdiagnostic problem experienced by people with psychosis, which is associated with anxiety, depression and risk of future relapse events. Despite this, there is a lack of available psychological interventions for fear of recurrence, and psychological therapies for schizophrenia are often poorly implemented in general. However, low-intensity psychological therapy is available for people who experience fear of recurrence in the context of cancer, which means there is an opportunity to learn what has worked in a well-implemented psychological therapy to see if any learning can be adapted for schizophrenia care.

Group Multimodal Prenatal Care and Postpartum Outcomes.

Importance: An increasing body of evidence suggests equivalent if not improved postpartum outcomes of in-person group prenatal care compared with individual prenatal care. However, research is needed to evaluate outcomes of group multimodal prenatal care (GMPC), with groups delivered virtually in combination with individual in-person office appointments to collect vital signs and conduct other tests compared with individual multimodal prenatal care (IMPC) delivered through a combination of remotely delivered and in-person visits.

Objective: To compare postpartum outcomes between GMPC and IMPC.

The dynamics and outcomes of AKI progression during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Purpose: Acute kidney injury (AKI) associated with COVID-19 is associated with poor prognosis. This study assessed the hitherto uninvestigated impact of COVID-19 on the progression and clinical outcomes of patients with AKI.

Methods: Data from 576 patients with AKI admitted between 13/3/20 and 13/5/20 were studied.

Real-world evaluation of an acceptance and commitment therapy-based group programme for breast cancer survivors with fear of cancer recurrence.

Purpose: To evaluate the effectiveness and acceptability of a 6-week acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT)-based group programme on participants' fear of cancer recurrence (FCR), quality of life (QoL), psychological distress and psychological flexibility at the end of the programme and 12-week follow-up.

Methods: A one-group, post-test service evaluation of a real-world psychological programme was carried out to evaluate collected outcome measures and attendance for a total of 21 groups facilitated between 2017 and 2019. Participants were breast cancer survivors who attended a 6-week group programme led by NHS clinicians.

Reproductive health outcomes of insured adolescent and adult women who access oral levonorgestrel emergency contraception.

Objective: To assess the level of risk for adolescents and women who seek emergency contraception through various clinical routes and the opportunities for improved care provision.

Methods: This study looked at a retrospective cohort to assess contraception and other reproductive health outcomes among adolescents and women aged 15-44 years who accessed oral levonorgestrel emergency contraception through an office visit or the call center at Kaiser Permanente Northern California from 2010 to 2011.

Results: Of 21,421 prescriptions, 14,531 (67.

Does the diagnosis of breast or ovarian cancer trigger referral to genetic counseling?

Objective: Kaiser Permanente Northern California is a large integrated health care delivery system in the United States that has guidelines for referring women with newly diagnosed BRCA1-and BRCA2-associated cancers for genetic counseling. This study assesses adherence to genetic counseling referral guidelines within this health system.

Methods: Chart review was performed to identify patients with cancer who met the following pathology-based Kaiser Permanente Northern California guidelines for referral for genetic counseling: invasive breast cancer, younger than age 40; nonmucinous epithelial ovarian, fallopian tube, or peritoneal cancer, younger than age 60; women with synchronous or metachronous primary cancers of the breast and ovaries; and male breast cancer.

Patients' perspectives on nonadherence to statin therapy: a focus-group study.

Context: Nonadherence to statin therapy is associated with poor cardiovascular outcomes.

Objective: We explored factors and perceptions that contribute to statin therapy nonadherence.

Design: We conducted a qualitative study that was based on three patient focus groups using a structured discussion guide to explore factors related to statin therapy nonadherence, information sources, perceptions of statins and cardiovascular risks factors, and suggestions for improving adherence.
