Article Abstract
This review synthesizes current literature on the interventions promoting positive youth development (PYD) among adolescents and young adults aged 10-24 in Canada and the United States following the PYD framework. Following Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses guidelines, we conducted a systematic review using electronic databases, including Medline, EMBASE, PsychINFO, Cumulative Index to Nursing and Allied Health Literature via EBSCOhost, Scopus, and Cochrane Library, focusing on randomized, quasirandomized, pretest and post-test designs studies of PYD interventions. Of the 14 studies included, most (n = 12) targeted skill-building, significantly enhancing youth's interpersonal skills, self-confidence, social engagement and empowerment. About half (n = 8) of the studies incorporated the agency domain, followed by the enabling environment domain (n = 3), and two studies (n = 2) encompassing the contribution domain. The findings emphasize PYD interventions' role in developing essential social skills in youth while highlighting the need for more rigorous, long-term studies to evaluate PYD interventions' effectiveness.

Real-Time Exposure to Alcohol Content in Digital Media in Adolescents: Protocol for a Multiburst Ecological Momentary Assessment Study.

Background: Digital media frequently contains positive portrayals of alcohol content, which has been shown to be associated with alcohol-related cognitions and behaviors. Because youth are heavy media consumers and have access to unsupervised, repeat viewing of media content on their personal mobile devices, it is critical to understand the frequency of encountering alcohol content in adolescents' daily lives and how adolescents engage with the content.
Objective: This paper outlines the study protocol for examining adolescents' exposure to alcohol-related content in digital media within their natural environments.

Background: Population pharmacokinetic models can potentially provide suggestions for an initial dose and the magnitude of dose adjustment during therapeutic drug monitoring procedures of imatinib. Several population pharmacokinetic models for imatinib have been developed over the last two decades. However, their predictive performance is still unknown when extrapolated to different populations, especially children.

Youth anxiety and depression are rising rapidly worldwide, highlighting the need for efficient school-based assessment tools across sociocultural contexts. The Revised Child Anxiety and Depression Scale (RCADS) is one of the most widely used screening measures, with demonstrated cross-cultural applicability. However, its psychometric properties have rarely been evaluated in Chinese populations.

In this study, a comprehensive genome-wide identification and analysis of the aldo-keto reductase (AKR) gene family was performed to explore the role of Gossypium hirsutumAKR40 under salt stress in cotton. A total of 249 AKR genes were identified with uneven distribution on the chromosomes in four cotton species. The diversity and evolutionary relationship of the cotton AKR gene family was identified using physio-chemical analysis, phylogenetic tree construction, conserved motif analysis, chromosomal localization, prediction of cis-acting elements, and calculation of evolutionary selection pressure under 300 mM NaCl stress.

The global decline in fertility rates highlights the critical need to enhance individuals' fertility intentions. Using the socio-ecological perspective, we reveal a largely overlooked yet crucial socio-ecological factor that influences individuals' fertility intentions. Specifically, we propose that relational mobility serves as a precursor to fertility intention.
