Article Abstract
Objective: To pilot test a mobile health intervention using a CONnected CUstomized Treatment Platform that integrates a connected electronic adherence monitoring smartbox and an early warning system of non-adherence with bidirectional automated texting feature and provider alerts.
Methods: In total, 29 adult women with hormone-receptor-positive, human epidermal growth factor receptor 2-negative metastatic breast cancer and a prescription for palbociclib were asked to complete a survey and participate in a CONnected CUstomized Treatment Platform intervention, including use of a smartbox for real-time adherence monitoring, which triggered text message reminders for any missed or extra dose, and referrals to (a) participant's oncology provider after three missed doses or an episode of over-adherence, or (b) a financial navigation program for any cost-related missed dose. Use of smartbox, number of referrals, palbociclib adherence, CONnected CUstomized Treatment Platform usability measured by System Usability Scale, and changes in symptom burden and quality of life were assessed.
Results: Mean age was 57.6 and 69% were white. The smartbox was used by 72.4% of participants, with palbociclib adherence rate of 95.8%±7.6%. One participant was referred to oncology provider due to missed doses and one was referred to financial navigation. At baseline, 33.3% reported at least one adherence barrier including inconvenience to get prescription filled, forgetfulness, cost, and side effects. There were no changes in self-reported adherence, symptom burden or quality of life over 3 months. CONnected CUstomized Treatment Platform usability score was 61.9 ± 14.2.
Conclusion: The CONnected CUstomized Treatment Platform interventions is feasible, resulting in a high palbociclib adherence rate without any decline in overtime. Future efforts should focus on improving usability.

Background: Fetal alcohol spectrum disorder (FASD) is a lifelong neurodevelopmental condition resulting from prenatal alcohol exposure (PAE) during gestation. Conservative estimates of FASD prevalence in United States children are 1%-5%. Early identification could facilitate early intervention, yet fewer than 1% of children with FASD receive a diagnosis.

Background: The rise in malignant hepatopancreatobiliary tumors disproportionately affects low- and middle-income countries (LMICs) due to systemic challenges. In 2023, the International Hepatopancreatobiliary Association (IHPBA) launched a relationship-building initiative to mitigate outcome disparities by increasing capacity and quality. This study aimed to understand the dynamics and value of such collaborations.

This study addresses critical technical challenges in fabricating functional pigmented skin models via 3D bioprinting through the synergistic integration of droplet-based deposition and precision motion control. A hybrid bioprinting strategy was developed to create multilayer biomimetic architectures: the dermal layer was fabricated through extrusion of gelatin methacryloyl-polyacrylamide (GelMA-PAM) composites, while the epidermal layer incorporated precisely patterned melanocyte-laden GelMA-PAM arrays deposited via microvalve technology, subsequently solidified and populated with keratinocytes. To enhance printing reliability, a fractional-order proportional-integral control system optimized through particle swarm optimization (PSO-FOPI) was implemented, significantly improving motor speed regulation and positioning accuracy.

IntroductionThe Veterans Health Administration (VHA) prioritizes use of connected care technologies to enhance access and outcomes. The context in which connected care is implemented is crucial, yet difficult to measure, due to its subjective and complex nature. This evaluation examined alignment among stakeholder perceptions of context related to connected care implementation across VHA.

Introduction: Screw loosening remains a frequent mechanical complication in implant-supported prostheses, primarily caused by the gradual loss of abutment-screw preload. The aim of this study was to evaluate the mechanical performance of CAD-CAM custom and stock abutments by measuring removal torque values (RTV) at multiple time points and assessing surface morphology by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), following prolonged loading up to 2 × 10 cycles.
Methods: Forty-four implant-abutment assemblies with an internal conical-hex connection were divided into two groups: Stock abutments (SA) and custom abutments (CA).
