Article Abstract

Craving is a central feature of substance use disorders and disorders due to addictive behaviors. Considerable research has investigated neural mechanisms involved in the development and processing of craving. Recently, connectome-based predictive modeling, a data-driven method, has been used in four studies aiming to predict craving related to substance use, addictive behaviors, and food. Studies differed in methods, samples, and conceptualizations of craving. Within the commentary we aim to compare, contrast and consolidate findings across studies by considering conceptual and methodological features of the studies. We derive a theoretical model on the functional connectivity-craving relationships across studies.

This concept analysis explores the nature of safe sex among adolescents, offering insights to empower them in making informed sexual decisions. Using Walker and Avant's methodological framework and a scoping review approach, we conducted an extensive literature search in PubMed, SCOPUS, CINAHL-Complete, and Thai Journal Online, identifying 1414 records. After duplicate removal, 1288 records were screened, with 43 studies included in the final review.

Methods used in early value assessments for nice: a scoping review.

Int J Technol Assess Health Care

September 2025

Evidence Synthesis Group, Population Health Sciences Institute, Faculty of Medical Sciences, https://ror.org/01kj2bm70Newcastle University, Newcastle upon Tyne, UK.

Objectives: The National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE) in England introduced early value assessments (EVAs) as an evidence-based method of accelerating access to promising health technologies that could address unmet needs and contribute to the National Health Service's Long Term Plan. However, there are currently no published works considering differences and commonalities in methods used between Assessment Reports for EVAs.

Methods: This rapid scoping review included all completed EVAs published on the NICE website up to 23 July 2024.

Background And Objective: Sacituzumab govitecan, an anti-trophoblast cell surface antigen 2 (TROP2) antibody-drug conjugate, has been approved by both the US Food and Drug Administration and European Medicines Agency for patients with metastatic triple-negative breast cancer who have received two or more prior systemic therapies, including at least one of them for advanced disease. Although TROP2 evaluation is not required for patient selection, survival data from the ASCENT trial show improved response rates in patients with high TROP2 expression by immunohistochemistry. However, there is no standardized testing assay for these patients.

Current Practices for Mental Fatigue Quantification and Induction in Movement Science: Introducing the SPeCIFY Guidelines.

Sports Med

September 2025

Faculty of Physical Education and Physiotherapy, Human Physiology and Sports Physiotherapy Research Group, Vrije Universiteit Brussel, Pleinlaan 2, 1050, Brussels, Belgium.

Mental fatigue (MF) is a complex phenomenon with significant implications for human performance, for which there are numerous studies investigating the effects of MF. Nevertheless, there is considerable variability in the approaches used to induce and quantify MF, making it hard to compare findings across studies and draw well-supported conclusions. This review addresses the methodological variability in the induction and quantification methods of MF in movement science in the following ways: on the one hand, by providing an overview of task design strategies to induce MF, emphasizing the importance of tailoring task duration, difficulty, and nature to individual participants and specific research contexts; on the other hand, by providing an overview of current methods used to quantify MF, including behavioural, subjective, and physiological measures, and highlighting the strengths and limitations of each.

Objectives: Homelessness is a global public health concern which extends to the health and well-being of people working in homelessness, and this mixed-methods systematic review aims to explore their experiences of trauma.

Design: The review protocol followed the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses guidance and a mixed-methods convergent segregated approach, a systematic search for qualitative and quantitative research across seven databases.

Data Sources: CINAHL, MEDLINE, PsychINFO, Psychology Database, Public Health Database, Web of Science and PubMed, searched from inception until May 2023.
