Cross-peak signature patterns in two-dimensional (2D) asynchronous spectra are a useful tool for revealing the deeper physicochemical characteristics of intermolecular interactions. Various interferences such as noise can cause problems in recognizing the correct type of cross-peaks. The symmetrical characteristics of the cross-peaks may offer an intrinsic criterion for distinguishing between different types of cross-peaks. When intermolecular interaction only brings about a shift in the characteristic peak of a solute, we found that the resultant cross-peaks possess a mirror symmetry. However, such a symmetry may not be directly observable in the 2D asynchronous spectrum covered by severe noise. To solve this problem, a comprehensive approach to identify the symmetry is developed. Firstly, a method to locate the mirror is proposed. Then, the Kolmogorov-Smirnov test and Bayesian analysis are used to obtain the probability of the existence of mirror symmetry in the cross-peak group. The approach is showcased in three model systems and a real-world example (the benzene/I system), which demonstrates that the approach is helpful in assigning the correct type of cross-peak under difficult situations.

Background And Objectives: Pollen-food allergy syndrome (PFAS) is a frequent comorbidity in individuals with hay fever. Identifying risk factors and allergen clusters can aid targeted interventions and management strategies. Objective: This study characterizes PFAS in patients with hay fever and identifies associated risk factors using the mobile health platform, AllerSearch.

Objective: From October 18-20, 2022, the National Institutes of Health held a workshop to examine the state of the science concerning obesity interventions in adults to promote health equity. The workshop had three objectives: (1) Convene experts from key institutions and the community to identify gaps in knowledge and opportunities to address obesity, (2) generate recommendations for obesity prevention and treatment to achieve health equity, and (3) identify challenges and needs to address obesity prevalence and disparities, and develop a diverse workforce.
Methods: A three-day virtual convening.

Investigating neuroimaging data to identify brain-based markers of mental illnesses has gained significant attention. Nevertheless, these endeavors encounter challenges arising from a reliance on symptoms and self-report assessments in making an initial diagnosis. The absence of biological data to delineate nosological categories hinders the provision of additional neurobiological insights into these disorders.

Background: Mental health (MH) problems are more common in people with intellectual disabilities (ID), yet under-diagnosis persists, which may be partly due to a lack of appropriate assessment tools. This study presents a systematic review of instruments used to assess MH problems in Spanish-speaking adults with ID.
Method: Following PRISMA guidelines, a search was conducted in Web of Science, PsycINFO, and Scopus using terms related to ID, MH and assessment.

Background: Poststroke cognitive impairment (PSCI) affects 30% to 50% of stroke survivors, severely impacting functional outcomes and quality of life. This study uses functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS) to assess task-evoked brain activation and its potential for stratifying the severity in patients with PSCI.
Method: A cross-sectional study was conducted at Nanchong Central Hospital between June 2023 and April 2024.
