Article Abstract
Background: The consortium project INTEGRATE-ADHD compared administrative data on the presence of attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) in children and adolescents with the results of a parent survey and a comprehensive clinical assessment based on the S3 guideline of the Association of the Scientific Medical Societies in Germany (AWMF). Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the clinical assessment was carried out online.
Methods: The article describes how a guideline-based clinical assessment of ADHD can be implemented in an online setting. A specially developed diagnostic matrix is presented to illustrate the assessment procedures and the diagnostic decision-making process. The matrix is intended to help the diagnostician to gain an overview of the numerous individual findings that have been collected using different assessment perspectives and methods (e.g. diagnostic interviews, rating scales, performance tests) in order to make a well-founded and transparent diagnostic decision.
Discussion: The consortium project INTEGRATE-ADHD has shown that an online assessment can be implemented in a guideline-compliant manner and allows a valid clinical decision. The diagnostic strategy is discussed with reference to international guidelines and recommendations for online diagnostics (e.g. aspects of feasibility, acceptability and safety of the assessment procedures). The challenges and opportunities of using online assessments in clinical practice are also described.

Periodontal disease (PD) is a common and complex oral health problem that affects teeth and gums, leading to tooth loss, misalignment, and infection, with significant impact. Identifying the cause and developing new treatments is crucial. This study employed Mendelian randomization (MR), single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq), and integrated transcriptomics to identify key gene signatures associated with periodontitis.

Background: In healthcare education, virtual reality (VR), simulating real-world situations, is emerging as a tool to improve communication skills, particularly in sensitive scenarios involving patients and caregivers. While promising, VR-based education also poses challenges such as avatar realism, cognitive load, and the need for pedagogical grounding.
Objective: This protocol paper presents the VR-TALKS project, which aims to develop, apply, and evaluate VR scenarios designed to teach healthcare students communication skills in serious illness scenarios.

Introduction: Inflammatory cytokine disturbance is a prominent outcome of immune dysregulation, extensively documented in bipolar disorder (BD). However, observational studies have exhibited inconsistent findings, and the causal relationships between inflammatory factors and BD remain unclear. Hence, this study aimed to uncover the causality between circulating inflammatory cytokines and BD.

Living with dementia requires decision making about numerous topics including daily activities and advance care planning (ACP). Both individuals living with dementia and care partners require informed support for decision making. We conducted an umbrella review to assess knowledge translation (KT) interventions supporting decision making for individuals living with dementia and their informal care partners.
