<div style="font-family:Helvetica, sans-serif; text-align:left;color:#999;font-size:11px;font-weight:bold;line-height:15px;">Jan 15th 2026, 11:19</div>
<div style="font-family:Helvetica, sans-serif; color:#494949;text-align:justify;font-size:13px;">
<p><h2>Background</h2>
<p>Prenatal exposure to ambient air pollution has been implicated in adverse neurodevelopment, but evidence from large-scale, long-term studies in Asian populations remains limited. We examined the association between in utero exposure to multiple air pollutants and the risk of neurodevelopmental disorders (NDD) in offspring using a nationwide cohort in South Korea.</p>
<h2>Methods</h2>
<p>We conducted a nationwide retrospective cohort study using linked administrative health and environmental data. A total of 1,436,685 children born between January 1, 2010, and December 31, 2014, were identified from the National Health Insurance Service database and followed up through December 31, 2023. Maternal exposure to nitrogen dioxide (NO<sub>2</sub>), sulfur dioxide (SO<sub>2</sub>), carbon monoxide (CO), ozone (O<sub>3</sub>), and particulate matter ≤10 μm (PM<sub>10</sub>) was estimated by linking residential postal codes to fixed-site monitoring data. NDD diagnoses were identified from healthcare claims. Adjusted hazard ratios (aHRs) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were estimated using multivariable Cox proportional hazards models adjusting for maternal sociodemographic, medical, obstetric, and neonatal covariates.</p>
<h2>Results</h2>
<p>During up to 13 years of follow-up, 140,971 children (9.8%) were diagnosed with an NDD. Prenatal exposure to NO<sub>2</sub> showed the strongest association: each 0.01-ppm increase was associated with an 18% higher hazard of NDD (aHR 1.18, 95% CI 1.17–1.19; <i>p</i> < .001). SO<sub>2</sub> exposure also demonstrated a small but statistically significant association (per 0.001-ppm increase: aHR 1.01, 95% CI 1.01–1.02; <i>p</i> = .008). These associations persisted across major NDD subtypes – including intellectual disabilities, developmental delays, and behavioral or emotional disorders – and remained robust in trimester-specific, stratified, and sensitivity analyses.</p>
<h2>Conclusions</h2>
<p>Prenatal exposure to ambient air pollutants – particularly NO<sub>2</sub> and SO<sub>2</sub> – is associated with increased long-term risk of NDD in offspring. These findings highlight the neurodevelopmental vulnerability of the prenatal period and underscore the need for strengthened environmental policies to reduce maternal exposure to harmful pollutants.</p>

<p><h2>ABSTRACT</h2>
<p>This paper explores community members’ perspectives on the developmental value of classical music ensemble participation for children and young people based in the North-West of England. Drawing on 16 in-depth individual interviews and one focus group (<i>N</i> = 5), the study discusses how parents, school teachers, music tutors and charity board members (<i>N</i> = 21; age range from 25 to 60 years; 13 females, 8 males) interpret the benefits and challenges associated with learning and performing in an ensemble. Using <i>reflexive thematic analysis</i> supported by NVivo, five interconnected themes were generated, illustrating how community members make sense of ensemble participation as a catalyst for holistic development. Participants described young people’s engagement in ensembles as fostering cognitive and academic skills while simultaneously nurturing emotional skills and passion for music. Community members also emphasised the relational and social value of ensemble practice, highlighting the formation of inclusive, ‘family-like communities’ characterised by belonging and reciprocity. Overall, the findings suggest that ensemble programmes provide a powerful context for life-skills development, calling for educational institutions and community organisations to ensure equitable access to high-quality, community-embedded music initiatives and to foreground the holistic potential of ensemble participation. Policymakers are encouraged to recognise the wider developmental and social significance of music education and to strengthen long-term, inclusive funding for ensemble-based provision.</p>

<p><h2>ABSTRACT</h2>
<p>This paper explores community members’ perspectives on the developmental value of classical music ensemble participation for children and young people based in the North-West of England. Drawing on 16 in-depth individual interviews and one focus group (<i>N</i> = 5), the study discusses how parents, school teachers, music tutors and charity board members (<i>N</i> = 21; age range from 25 to 60 years; 13 females, 8 males) interpret the benefits and challenges associated with learning and performing in an ensemble. Using <i>reflexive thematic analysis</i> supported by NVivo, five interconnected themes were generated, illustrating how community members make sense of ensemble participation as a catalyst for holistic development. Participants described young people’s engagement in ensembles as fostering cognitive and academic skills while simultaneously nurturing emotional skills and passion for music. Community members also emphasised the relational and social value of ensemble practice, highlighting the formation of inclusive, ‘family-like communities’ characterised by belonging and reciprocity. Overall, the findings suggest that ensemble programmes provide a powerful context for life-skills development, calling for educational institutions and community organisations to ensure equitable access to high-quality, community-embedded music initiatives and to foreground the holistic potential of ensemble participation. Policymakers are encouraged to recognise the wider developmental and social significance of music education and to strengthen long-term, inclusive funding for ensemble-based provision.</p>

<p><h2>Abstract</h2>
<h2>Objective</h2>
<p>We examined Chinese married individuals’ perceptions and utilization of online couples counseling service (OCCS), the factors influencing their utilization, and their expectations for the service.</p>
<h2>Background</h2>
<p>In recent years, the divorce rate in China has been increasing, and traditional approaches to resolving marital conflicts have gradually become less applicable in the current social context, especially during periods of transformations in gender order. OCCS is a possible approach to solve couple problems and promote marital harmony in a digital society, but it is still in the process of development in China.</p>
<h2>Method</h2>
<p>Semistructured interviews were conducted with 30 Chinese married individuals from August to October 2023, and thematic analysis was used to analyze the data.</p>
<h2>Results</h2>
<p>We identified a total of three themes and 14 subthemes. The three themes included (a) perceptions of OCCS, (b) factors influencing the use of OCCS, and (c) future expectations of OCCS.</p>
<h2>Conclusion</h2>
<p>Participants demonstrated a general awareness of OCCS, though most had not yet utilized such services. Seven factors were identified as influencing their utilization of the service. Additionally, AI-based OCCS were perceived to attract attention and increase their willingness to utilize the service.</p>
<h2>Implications</h2>
<p>The future development of OCCS should not only focus on service quality but also address users’ concerns. This study also provides references for other East Asian countries with similar cultural foundations.</p>

<p><h2>ABSTRACT</h2>
<p>Families who have lost a member deal with an intense process of rebuilding their family dynamics and narratives. Losses during the COVID-19 pandemic highlighted the lack of studies and intervention models for working with these families. In response to this, we developed an approach informed by narrative therapy practices. In this study, we aimed to understand the lived experience of 54 psychologists who facilitated support groups for bereaved family members. After each session, professional written reports were analyzed using reflexive thematic analysis. The findings highlighted the importance of a dialogical space to work with bereaved family members. Re-membering and re-authoring conversations were considered valuable approaches to work with families who have lost a member. This approach can inform clinical intervention supporting bereaved families in different contexts.</p>

<div style="font-family:Helvetica, sans-serif; text-align:left;color:#999;font-size:11px;font-weight:bold;line-height:15px;">Jan 15th 2026, 10:19</div>
<div style="font-family:Helvetica, sans-serif; color:#494949;text-align:justify;font-size:13px;">
<p><p><sec><st>Objectives</st></sec></p>
<p>To assess the feasibility, safety and preliminary efficacy of psilocybin-assisted therapy (PAT) for demoralisation in terminally ill patients receiving home hospice care.</p>
<p><sec><st>Methods</st></sec></p>
<p>In this open-label pilot trial, 4607 home hospice patients at a large community hospice were screened over 22 months; 66 were approached, 15 enrolled and 10 received psilocybin. Participants completed two home-based preparation sessions, a single 25 mg oral psilocybin session at an inpatient hospice facility, and two home-based integration sessions. Feasibility was assessed through recruitment, retention and acceptability. Safety was evaluated via adverse event monitoring, and preliminary efficacy was assessed using changes in demoralisation scores and other psychosocial measures.</p>
<p><sec><st>Results</st></sec></p>
<p>The intervention was well tolerated, with no serious adverse events attributed to psilocybin. At week 3, demoralisation scores significantly decreased (mean reduction: 8.8 points, p=0.0196), despite ongoing clinical decline. Grief- and peace-related themes were prominent during psilocybin sessions. While six participants rated the treatment favourably on the Reaction to Research Participation Questionnaire global evaluation factor, three rated neutral on one or more items, suggesting that the emotional intensity and demands of the intervention may influence acceptability.</p>
<p><sec><st>Conclusion</st></sec></p>
<p>This study provides initial evidence that PAT can be feasibly and safely integrated into hospice care for terminally ill patients. Further research is needed to optimise delivery and further assess therapeutic potential.</p>

<div style="font-family:Helvetica, sans-serif; text-align:left;color:#999;font-size:11px;font-weight:bold;line-height:15px;">Jan 15th 2026, 10:19</div>
<div style="font-family:Helvetica, sans-serif; color:#494949;text-align:justify;font-size:13px;">
<p><p>Compared with high-income countries (HICs), developing ‘Chat-IRB’—application-specific large language models for research ethics review—may have different implications for resource-constrained Research Ethics Committees or Institutional Review Boards (IRBs) in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs). While certain concerns raised by Moodley, Malpani, and Reis—including resource challenges, reviewing research conducted in LMICs, and automation bias—are not entirely unique to LMIC IRBs, the hurdles they must overcome in developing a contextualised Chat-IRB will likely be greater. Crucially, Chat-IRB for LMICs presents a significant opportunity to strengthen ethics capacity and bolster oversight through: (1) stimulating greater investment in generating open-access, LMIC-centred research ethics scholarship that also serves as training data; (2) leveraging existing WHO or UNESCO programmes to develop an ‘always available’ training resource and review tool should international funding for ethics education and capacity-building be reduced or withdrawn; (3) mitigating inadequate human capacities by providing a ‘minimal acceptable standard’ of review, especially during time-sensitive matters; and (4) a national-level Chat-IRB as a centralised ‘governance’ mechanism and first-line defence against ethics dumping, IRB shopping, and other exploitative research practices. Taken holistically, purpose-built for LMICs, Chat-IRB represents a critical—but potentially unrecognised—opportunity for HICs to advance ethics capacity-building, and strengthen research oversight within LMICs.</p>

<div style="font-family:Helvetica, sans-serif; text-align:left;color:#999;font-size:11px;font-weight:bold;line-height:15px;">Jan 15th 2026, 10:19</div>

<p><p><sec><st>Introduction</st></sec></p>
<p>Little is known about the impact of viewing commercial e-cigarette advertisements (ads) with varying fruit flavour features among young adults.</p>
<p><sec><st>Methods</st></sec></p>
<p>US young adult (18–30 years) non-use group (n=1078), cigarette-only group (n=1005) and dual-use group (n=1000) participated in a web-based randomised controlled trial and viewed an ad from six conditions: (1) control condition 1: grey device, ‘tobacco’ flavour name; (2) condition 2: grey device, ‘strawberry’ flavour name; (3) condition 3: coloured (red) device, ‘strawberry’ flavour name; (4) condition 4: condition 3+strawberry imagery; (5) condition 5: condition 4+flavour sensation claim; and (6) condition 6: condition 5+flavour choice claim. Immediately afterwards, participants reported intentions to use (and completely switch to) the advertised e-cigarette and other e-cigarette-related perceptions.</p>
<p><sec><st>Results</st></sec></p>
<p>Among the dual-use group, the trial overall increased e-cigarette use intention, full-switch intention, relative use intentions (vs cigarettes and other e-cigarettes) and positive sensory appeal and use expectancy, compared with the control. Specifically, each non-control condition was associated with higher use intention; conditions 4, 5 and 6 were associated with higher switching intention; and condition 5 produced the highest use and switching intentions. Among non-use and cigarette-only groups, the trial affected sensory appeal and use expectancy.</p>
<p><sec><st>Discussion</st></sec></p>
<p>e-Cigarette ads with fruit flavour features, compared with ads promoting tobacco-flavoured products, increased try-and-switch intentions among the young adult dual-use group but influenced only positive sensory and expectancy perceptions among non-use and cigarette-only groups. Policymakers should consider the impact of fruit flavour features in e-cigarette marketing on complete product switching.</p>

<p><p>The WHO estimated in 2020 that 374 million new cases of curable sexually transmitted infections (STIs) occur globally each year.<cross-ref type="bib" refid="R1">1</cross-ref> The highest incidence is observed in low-resource settings, where syndromic management is the standard of care. Introduced by WHO in 1984, syndromic management is a clinical approach that uses algorithms to guide empirical antimicrobial treatment based on signs and symptoms—such as vaginal discharge and urethral discharge—without diagnostic testing. Availability and implementation of rapid diagnostic tests for STIs will improve quality of care, reduce overtreatment and missed infections and mitigate against antimicrobial resistance.<cross-ref type="bib" refid="R2">2</cross-ref></p>

<div style="font-family:Helvetica, sans-serif; text-align:left;color:#999;font-size:11px;font-weight:bold;line-height:15px;">Jan 15th 2026, 10:19</div>
<div style="font-family:Helvetica, sans-serif; color:#494949;text-align:justify;font-size:13px;">
<p><p><sec><st>Background</st></sec></p>
<p>Bacterial sexually transmitted infections (STIs) remain a growing public health challenge globally, with gay, bisexual and other men who have sex with men (gbMSM) disproportionately affected. Doxycycline postexposure prophylaxis (DoxyPEP) has been shown in clinical trials to reduce syphilis and chlamydia, and has been incorporated into US and UK guidelines. However, community-level data in many European countries remain scarce. This study aimed to assess awareness, attitudes and early use of DoxyPEP among gbMSM in Ireland.</p>
<p><sec><st>Methods</st></sec></p>
<p>An anonymous, cross-sectional online survey was conducted between May and June 2025. Eligible participants were aged ≥18 years, identified as male (cis or trans) or non-binary/gender diverse and reported sex with a man in the past 12 months. The questionnaire covered demographics, sexual behaviours, STI/HIV history, awareness and use of antibiotics for STI prevention and attitudinal measures. Descriptive statistics summarised findings, and logistic regression identified predictors of DoxyPEP use.</p>
<p><sec><st>Results</st></sec></p>
<p>A total of 149 participants completed the survey, with a mean age of 36.4 years (range: 22–67); 92.6% were cisgender men and 86.6% identified as gay. Awareness of antibiotic STI prophylaxis was high (83.2%), and 69.1% expressed strong interest in future use. Over one-quarter (29.5%) reported DoxyPEP use in the past 12 months, almost exclusively at the recommended 200 mg dose. DoxyPEP use was associated with previous HIV PEP use (adjusted OR (AOR) 3.02 s, 95% CI 1.35 to 6.73) and group sex (AOR 3.27, 95% CI 1.26 to 8.59). Most participants reported sourcing antibiotics informally, including online or through friends. Antimicrobial resistance was the most common concern reported (69.8%).</p>
<p><sec><st>Conclusion</st></sec></p>
<p>Despite the absence of national guidelines on the use of DoxyPEP for STI prevention, over one-quarter of participants reported using DoxyPEP, with high awareness and demand for structured access.
