<p><h2>Abstract</h2>
<h2>Objectives</h2>
<p>Despite numerous psychotherapy trials, knowledge on service-system efficiency in terms of return to treatment is limited, especially regarding internet-delivered cognitive behavioural therapy (iCBT). We estimated the hazard ratio (HR) of subsequent psychological treatment over several years following the initial psychological intervention.</p>
<h2>Methods</h2>
<p>This naturalistic register follow-up study in Finland included patients receiving therapist-guided iCBT (2013–2021, <i>n</i> = 30,934) or ≤20-session psychotherapy (2018–2021, <i>n</i> = 3348), and matched population controls (<i>n</i> = 92,846). Their long-term psychotherapy data (≤200 sessions/3 years, requiring prior treatment) were obtained from the Social Insurance Institution. We used Cox proportional hazard regression, adjusting for age, sex, first purchase of psychotropic drugs and onset of the first psychiatric diagnosis.</p>
<h2>Results</h2>
<p>Given the adjustments, the hazard of subsequent long-term psychotherapy was fourfold after iCBT (HR = 4.08; 95% CI 3.81–4.37) and nearly ninefold after ≤20-session psychotherapy (HR = 8.94; CI 7.79–10.26), compared to those without these prior treatments. Prior ≤20-session psychotherapy was associated with reduced hazard of entering subsequent iCBT (HR .12, CI .09–.16), while prior long-term psychotherapy was not (<i>p</i> = .087). Prior iCBT was associated with a lower hazard of subsequent ≤20-session psychotherapy (HR = .41, CI = .35–.47), while prior long-term psychotherapy was not (<i>p</i> = .332).</p>
<h2>Conclusions</h2>
<p>Mapping the succession of psychological treatments added knowledge and revealed surprises. For example, patients receiving therapist-guided iCBT were less likely to access subsequent face-to-face psychotherapy than those initially treated face-to-face. While past services are used as a convenience indicator for future services, future research on successive psychological treatments should continue to disentangle clinical need from service systems effects.</p>

<p><h2>ABSTRACT</h2>
<p>Adults who experienced separation from parental care and resided in alternative care settings often face challenges transitioning to adulthood. This study explored perceived supports and barriers during this transition through an online survey of 962 care-experienced adults from over 20 countries. It combined demographic analysis and thematic analysis of qualitative responses. Key findings indicated that the reasons for separation from biological parents included parental death (29.9%), abandonment (22.2%), family instability (19.1%) and poverty (19.4%). The following three overarching themes emerged: (1) relationships and social networks, including the importance of supportive relationships and psychosocial services; (2) well-being and resilience, including how mental health challenges impacted functioning, while resilience led to growth; and (3) resources and opportunities, including how education and long-term support were vital, while financial difficulties and lack of resources hindered progress. Recommendations aimed to improve support systems for more stable transitions to adulthood are discussed.</p>

<p><p>A man in his 90s was frail, symptomatic of heart failure and dependent on a pacemaker inserted decades prior for third-degree atrioventricular block. He requested his cardiologist to deactivate the pacemaker so he could die naturally of his underlying cardiac pathology. After 135 days of consultations and advice, the pacemaker was deactivated in a hospice in England. After deactivation, the patient developed bradycardia and hypoxia but remained comfortable and conversant, then gradually became unconscious. Opioid and benzodiazepine were administered at deactivation and later in response to mild symptoms. He died peacefully 18 hours after the capacitous, legal withdrawal of cardiac pacing treatment.</p>

<div style="font-family:Helvetica, sans-serif; text-align:left;color:#999;font-size:11px;font-weight:bold;line-height:15px;">Feb 11th 2026, 10:18</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>Modelling studies find the smokefree generation (SFG) policy could help achieve the tobacco endgame. The UK is on course to introduce an SFG in 2027 that prohibits tobacco sales to individuals born in or after 2009.</p>
<p><sec><st>Methods</st></sec></p>
<p>We adapted an individual-level microsimulation model with a synthetic representative English population, and used previously validated smoking initiation, quit and relapse probabilities by age and deprivation quintile. We simulated four scenarios from 2023 to 2075: no intervention, pessimistic SFG, central SFG and optimistic SFG. Proportionate universalism sensitivity analyses assumed effective targeting led to greater effects in more deprived areas and smaller effects in less deprived areas. Equity was assessed using slope and relative indices of inequality.</p>
<p><sec><st>Results</st></sec></p>
<p>The central SFG scenario forecast smoking prevalence to be reduced to <5% in 12–30 year-olds by 2049, but not until 2055 for males and not until 2059 for those living in the most deprived quintile. Absolute socioeconomic inequalities were reduced but not relative inequalities. Under proportionate universalism, <5% prevalence is achieved a year earlier (2048) and both absolute and relative inequalities by index of multiple deprivation quintile are substantially reduced by 2050. By 2075, 87 899 (85 293–90 791) discounted quality-adjusted life years were gained in the central scenario compared with baseline.</p>
<p><sec><st>Conclusions</st></sec></p>
<p>The SFG policy has potential to reduce absolute inequalities among its target population and achieve significant gains in quality and length of life. Achieving reductions in relative inequalities will likely require targeted interventions that lead to greater effectiveness in lower socioeconomic areas and for males.</p>

<div style="font-family:Helvetica, sans-serif; text-align:left;color:#999;font-size:11px;font-weight:bold;line-height:15px;">Feb 11th 2026, 10:18</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>Spree Bar, a line of e-cigarette devices introduced in 2023, leverages 6-methylnicotine (6-MN) as its primary ingredient and is available in nine flavours, each represented by artificial intelligence (AI)-generated avatars.</p>
<p><sec><st>Aims</st></sec></p>
<p>To characterise the popularity (via social media analysis and survey data), content (nicotine, nicotine analogues, common flavouring chemicals) and marketing strategy (product avatars and flavour descriptions created by the company on its website and Instagram) of Spree Bar.</p>
<p><sec><st>Results</st></sec></p>
<p>Publicly available secondary data (Population Assessment of Tobacco and Health, National Youth Tobacco Survey (NYTS), International Tobacco Control (ITC) Youth survey) have not captured any reported use of Spree Bar. Social media observations revealed little public discussion of Spree Bar, aside from activity surrounding news stories. Chemical analysis confirmed that Spree Bar did not contain nicotine and that the levels of 6-MN were significantly lower than claimed (approximately 0.3% vs 5%). Wilkinson Sword (WS)-23, a synthetic coolant, was present in all varieties, regardless of nominal flavour. Linguistic analysis of Spree Bar promotional text from their novel marketing strategy indicates very little difference in language used across avatars or nominal flavours.</p>
<p><sec><st>Conclusions</st></sec></p>
<p>There is limited evidence of widespread uptake of Spree Bar to date. However, its marketing approach and striking mislabeling and coolant ubiquity underscore the need for regulatory vigilance.</p>

<div style="font-family:Helvetica, sans-serif; color:#494949;text-align:justify;font-size:13px;">
<p><p><sec><st>Objective</st></sec></p>
<p>To evaluate the feasibility and acceptability of daily oral emtricitabine/tenofovir alafenamide fumarate (FTC/TAF) as HIV pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) among people who inject drugs with opioid use disorder (OUD).</p>
<p><sec><st>Methods</st></sec></p>
<p>In this single-arm, open-label observational study, 100 people who inject drugs (PWID) were enrolled to receive daily oral FTC/TAF for HIV prevention through a community-based syringe services programme. Participants were referred for laboratory testing following enrolment and received a 90-day supply of FTC/TAF at baseline, 3-month and 6-month visits. Behavioural and biomedical data were collected at each follow-up visit. Feasibility was assessed by tracking the number of individuals screened, enrolled and retained in the study. Acceptability was measured at 3 and 6 months using an adapted 10-item acceptability rating profile. Adherence, uptake and side effects were assessed via self-report, and exit interviews were conducted at follow-up visits to provide qualitative context.</p>
<p><sec><st>Results</st></sec></p>
<p>Participants had a median age of 43.5 years (IQR: 38–53), 63% were male, 52% non-Hispanic white, 37% injected daily, 67% reported condomless sex and 21% reported prior PrEP use. Although all participants were prescribed FTC/TAF, only 60 collected PrEP at least once during the study; of these, 42 collected it only once, 16 two times and two at all three time points (baseline, 3-month and 6-month). Among those on PrEP, self-reported adherence increased from 68.14% (±34.76) over 3 months to 88.37% (±21.52) over 6 months. Acceptability was high (range: 1–4): 3 months (3.20 (±0.35)) and 6 months (3.10 (±0.17)). The most frequently reported side effects were fatigue (18.4%) and nausea (17.2%). There were no HIV seroconversions.</p>
<p><sec><st>Conclusion</st></sec></p>
<p>FTC/TAF PrEP was acceptable among PWID with OUD. However, feasibility challenges were due to low uptake and continuation, with only two participants completing PrEP pick-up at all follow-up visits, despite higher self-reported adherence among those retained at 6 months.</p>

<p><h2>ABSTRACT</h2>
<p>Psychiatric patient violence adversely affects healthcare workers’ quality of life and patient quality of care. In contrast to the common adult patient emphasis, the present study was designed to examine the relationship between healthcare staff-directed verbal and physical violence exhibited by children and adolescent psychiatric inpatients and post-traumatic stress (PTSD) symptoms, emotional labour, and physical and mental fatigue of staff. Our cross- sectional study recruited 113 multidisciplinary staff members working in child and adolescent psychiatric wards: 33 (29.2%) educational staff, including special education schoolteachers and social guides; 53 (46.9%) nursing staff, including nurses and nurse aides; and 27 (23.9%) multidisciplinary clinical staff, including physicians, psychologists, social workers, and occupational therapists. Five questionnaires were used: Exposure to Violence Questionnaire, PCL-5 (PTSD), Emotional Labour Questionnaire, MFI-20 (physical and mental fatigue), and a sociodemographic survey. Findings indicated that nearly all personnel had experienced verbal violence, and most had experienced physical violence from hospitalised children and adolescents. Such violence caused staff a moderate level of emotional labour. Exposure to violence was significantly related to PTSD symptoms, which fully mediated the relationship between violence exposure and physical and mental fatigue. Regression analysis identified PTSD symptoms as the primary predictor of staff fatigue. The most intensely felt emotions towards patients were empathy, caring and compassion. We conclude that healthcare staff engage in emotional labour to suppress negative and promote positive emotions to maintain professional functioning and cope with challenging patient behaviours. PTSD symptoms among violence-exposed healthcare teams should be addressed with targeted interventions as emotional-support, emotion-regulation workshops, training in conflict management and violence de-escalation. Providing a safe and supportive work environment for both patients and staff is of paramount importance.</p>

<p><h2>ABSTRACT</h2>
<p>Digital-mediated practices in public social services require new strategies for administration, communication, assessment and intervention. Within this field, research framed under UNESCO’s (2020) Media and Information Literacy model—examining digital media management and digital competence in information management, communication, digital content creation, online safety and problem-solving—remains scarce. This study explores how the variability of digital media management profiles relates to the levels of digital competence and the perceived impact on professional practice and family outcomes. Participants were 103 practitioners from public social services for family support, who completed an online survey. Using a person-centred approach, four digital media management profiles were identified: <i>Novice Users</i> (11.7%), <i>Diversified Users</i> (32%), <i>Instant Communication Users</i> (32%) and <i>Information-Seeking Users</i> (24.3%). Members of Clusters 2 and 4 demonstrated higher proficiency in safety measures, digital content creation and technical problem-solving skills. They also reported that online support had a positive impact on family well-being, satisfaction with services and parental autonomy. These results underscore the need for targeted training to effectively integrate digital media and develop advanced digital competences. Both elements should be considered as quality standards and best practices, promoting more effective, responsible and adaptable approaches to support families’ autonomy in an increasingly digital world.</p>

<p><h2>Abstract</h2>
<p>This paper offers a psychoanalytic critique of the affirmation model in gender identity care, drawing on clinical experience from the Tavistock Gender Identity Development Service (GIDS). It argues that institutional and therapeutic responses to gender distress in young people are increasingly shaped by pressures to affirm rather than to reflect. Drawing on psychoanalytic concepts including symbolic thinking, identity foreclosure, claustro-agoraphobic anxieties and the “third position”, the paper explores how certainty and identity fixity can function as defences against psychic pain, rather than signs of psychological integration. The paper critiques the avoidance of transference, the foreclosure of thought and the emotional pressure placed on clinicians and institutions. It concludes by advocating for a model of care that restores reflective capacity and supports the difficult psychological work of identity development, rather than bypassing it through premature affirmation.</p>

<p><h2>ABSTRACT</h2>
<h2>Objectives</h2>
<p>To examine the longitudinal association between cognitive reserve (CR)-related proxies and episodic memory in older adults, and to explore the role of sociodemographic and clinical risk factors.</p>
<h2>Methods</h2>
<p>Data were drawn from 2279 participants of the Survey of Health, Aging and Retirement in Europe (SHARE), with baseline in wave 5 (2013) and follow-up in wave 9 (2021–2022). A CR-proxy score was constructed using education, occupation, physical activity, social engagement, and loneliness. Logistic regression models were used to predict immediate and delayed recall performance at follow-up, adjusting for age, sex, depression, vascular risk factors, and sensory impairments.</p>
<h2>Results</h2>
<p>Higher levels of CR-related proxies significantly reduced the odds of impairment in both immediate recall (OR = 0.55, <i>p</i> < 0.001) and delayed recall (OR = 0.46, <i>p</i> < 0.001). Age was associated with poorer memory outcomes, while women showed better performance in delayed recall being female predicted lower odds of preserved delayed recall. Depression was significantly related to poorer immediate recall, but other health conditions and sensory factors were not significant predictors.</p>
<h2>Conclusions</h2>
<p>CR-related proxies were strong predictors of memory performance over the 9-year period, particularly for delayed recall. These findings reflect sociobehavioural influences associated with CR development, rather than direct evidence of CR as a neurofunctional mechanism. Promoting cognitively, socially and physically enriching activities, together with addressing depression, may help preserve memory function in aging populations.</p>

<p><h2>ABSTRACT</h2>
<h2>Background</h2>
<p>The aim was to examine the effects of ‘Supporting Wellness in E-Child Learning Environments’ (SWELE) program on the mood, anxiety, social and self-regulation skills and playfulness behaviours of children and adolescents with special educational needs and disabilities.</p>
<h2>Methods</h2>
<p>A quasi-experiment single-group pre-test and post-test design was adopted. The intervention group received a 16-week SWELE program featuring an unstructured free outdoor play coupled with mindfulness-based intervention.</p>
<h2>Results</h2>
<p>1187 children and adolescents with intellectual or physical disabilities were recruited. At post-intervention, there are consistent positive changes across all five outcomes with medium to large effect sizes (Cohen’s d: 0.63–0.80). Specifically, the SWELE program demonstrated statistically significant improvement in mood level (<i>t</i> = 21.86, <i>p</i> < 0.001), self-regulation skills (<i>t</i> = 29.59, <i>p</i> < 0.001) and social skills (<i>t</i> = 23.84, <i>p</i> < 0.001), reduction in anxiety symptoms (<i>t</i> = −27.47, <i>p</i> < 0.001), and an increase in playfulness behaviours (<i>t</i> = 20.84, <i>p</i> < 0.001).</p>
<h2>Conclusion</h2>
<p>The SWELE intervention program was effective in promoting mental wellbeing among target children and adolescents.</p>

<p><h2>ABSTRACT</h2>
<h2>Background</h2>
<p>The Working Alliance (WA) can be considered a core variable influencing the efficacy of the Focus-Based Integrated Model (FBIM), able to emphasise diagnosis, focus, integrated intervention and self-therapy. Recognising and resolving WA ruptures is critical, particularly in a model that demands adaptability and precision. However, limited research has explored the role of WA in FBIM, especially from the psychotherapist’s perspective.</p>
<h2>Objectives</h2>
<p>The main aim of this study was to explore psychotherapists’ experiences of the WA with clients who have received psychotherapy based on the FBIM.</p>
<h2>Methods</h2>
<p>Using Interpretative Phenomenological Analysis (IPA), semi-structured interviews were conducted with 16 psychotherapists treating 25 clients, audio-recorded, and transcribed verbatim.</p>
<h2>Results</h2>
<p>The findings are organised into three key areas: the construction of the therapeutic alliance, the setting and the dyadic relationship. These areas are further delineated into superordinate themes, each of which is characterised by specific themes and sub-themes. The superordinate themes include: (1) the definition of the WA; (2) the perceived WA; (3) moments of rupture; (4) strategies employed to address ruptures; (5) the therapeutic setting; (6) the therapeutic focus; (7) the reins; (8) therapist characteristics; and (9) client characteristics.</p>
<h2>Discussion</h2>
<p>This study highlights the role of WA within FBIM-based psychotherapy, emphasising the need for therapists to remain attuned to ruptures and relational dynamics. Findings underscore the importance of therapist adaptability, relational sensitivity, and responsivity in navigating the complexities of WA. These insights offer valuable implications for training and supervision within FBIM frameworks, supporting psychotherapists in optimising outcomes through enhanced alliance management.</p>

<p><h2>ABSTRACT</h2>
<h2>Objective</h2>
<p>Despite advances in treatment, up to 20% of cases of bulimia nervosa and anorexia nervosa (AN) persist chronically, with about 25% of individuals with AN being re-hospitalized. This study examined demographic and clinical characteristics associated with one versus multiple admissions to an inpatient eating disorder unit.</p>
<h2>Method</h2>
<p>The sample included 1609 individuals, treated on an inpatient medical stabilization unit, diagnosed with an eating disorder. Of those, 25.4% (<i>n</i> = 326) required multiple admissions. Cox proportional hazard models evaluated adjusted associations of age, gender, eating disorder diagnosis, race, ethnicity, length of stay, presence of non-suicidal self-injury (NSSI), body mass index (BMI), and insurance type at initial admission with the likelihood of multiple admissions.</p>
<h2>Results</h2>
<p>No significant group differences were found in age, gender, BMI, initial length of stay, or ethnicity. Adjusting for other variables, multiple admissions were more likely for those with NSSI (adjusted HR = 1.46) hazard ratio (HR) and with lower BMI at initial admission (adjusted HR = 0.96) as well as Black patients (adjusted HR = 2.07). Relative to individuals with anorexia nervosa, those with Avoidant Restrictive Food Intake Disorder demonstrated a lower likelihood of multiple admissions (adjusted HR = 0.54).</p>
<h2>Discussion</h2>
<p>NSSI, lower BMI at initial admission, and Black race were associated with greater likelihood of multiple admissions, suggesting that emotion dysregulation, greater illness severity, and demographic factors contribute to rehospitalization. Future research may consider integrating interventions such as Dialectical Behavior Therapy into inpatient care to reduce risk of readmission. Early identification of high-risk behaviors (e.g., NSSI) is critical to tailoring treatment and improving long-term outcomes.</p>

<div style="font-family:Helvetica, sans-serif; text-align:left;color:#999;font-size:11px;font-weight:bold;line-height:15px;">Feb 11th 2026, 03:32</div>

<p><h2>ABSTRACT</h2>
<h2>Introduction</h2>
<p>Social cognition deficits, such as impaired emotion recognition, theory of mind (ToM), and empathy are central to schizophrenia-spectrum disorders and predict poor functional outcomes. Conventional therapies often lack scalability. Technology-based social cognition training (TBSCT), using computerized, web-based, or virtual reality (VR) formats, offers an accessible and adaptive solution.</p>
<h2>Methods</h2>
<p>Following PRISMA guidelines (PROSPEROCRD420251021242), databases including Embase, MEDLINE, Cochrane, CINAHL, Web of Science, and PsycArticles were searched up to May 2025. Eligible randomized or quasi-experimental studies involved adults with schizophrenia-spectrum disorders receiving TBSCT targeting emotion recognition, ToM, or empathy. Methodological quality was assessed using Joanna Briggs Institute tools. Random-effects meta-analyses estimated pooled effect sizes (Hedges’ g), with subgroup analyses by technology type, clinical setting, and intervention focus.</p>
<h2>Results</h2>
<p>Twenty-one studies (17 in meta-analysis) met inclusion criteria. TBSCT significantly enhanced facial emotion recognition (FER; g = 0.92, <i>p</i> < 0.001) and showed a small effect on ToM (g = 0.22, <i>p</i> = 0.05); empathy improved pre–post (g = 0.58, <i>p</i> = 0.04). FER benefits were strongest in web-based (g = 1.35), followed by VR (g = 0.87) and computerized programs (g = 0.75). ToM gains were significant only among outpatients. Methodological quality was moderate to high, with mild, transient adverse effects and comparable dropout rates (risk difference = −0.03, <i>p</i> = 0.21).</p>
<h2>Conclusion</h2>
<p>TBSCT effectively improves social cognition, particularly emotion recognition in schizophrenia-spectrum disorders. The interventions are safe, feasible, and scalable, supporting clinical implementation. Future studies should examine long-term efficacy and optimize engagement across diverse psychiatric populations.</p>

<p><h2>Abstract</h2>
<p>In an era where science education increasingly values inquiry competencies over rote outcomes, understanding students’ strategic and non-strategic engagement during digital assessments has become critical. This study applies contrastive representation learning to TIMSS 2023 Grade 8 Earth Science process data from five countries to uncover latent pathways of inquiry behaviour. Real-time digital traces—including screen visit frequency, revisit patterns and time-on-task—were embedded into a structured latent space, revealing two distinct clusters that map onto strategic and non-strategic inquiry profiles when interpreted through SRL theory. K-means clustering and UMAP visualization confirmed a strong alignment between behavioural profiles and Earth Science achievement outcomes. Cross-national analyses demonstrated that strategic and non-strategic engagement structures were highly generalizable across diverse education systems, despite contextual differences. Key behavioural indicators differentiating high- and low-performing profiles were identified, offering new insights into metacognitive regulation during inquiry tasks. By integrating contrastive learning, clustering validation, interpretability and ethical considerations, this study advances process-driven learning analytics for science education. The findings support the development of adaptive assessments, real-time scaffolding tools and culturally responsive instructional strategies, providing a blueprint for how AI-driven methods can enhance inquiry-based learning while safeguarding equity and learner agency in global science education contexts.</p>
