This study aimed to propose criteria for negative symptoms remission (NSR) in schizophrenia using the Brief Negative Symptom Scale (BNSS).

274 participants were assessed on the Positive and Negative Syndrome Scale (PANSS), BNSS and Social and Occupational Functioning Assessment Scale (SOFAS). Two criteria for NSR on the BNSS were proposed - NSR based on the BNSS domains scores (NSR
) and NSR based on 5 key items of the BNSS (NSR
)
A SOFAS score of 61 and above was considered as functional remission (FR). Logistic regressions were run to examine the association between FR and NSR. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis was performed for the NSR criteria on FR. Kappa agreement statistic was used to evaluate the agreement between the two NSR criteria.

Eighty-nine (32.5%) participants fulfilled NSR
criterion whereas 70 (25.6%) participants fulfilled NSR
criterion. The two NSR criteria had substantial agreement (Kappa statistic=0.797) with each other. Sixty-one (25.3%) participants were in FR. FR was significantly associated with NSR, irrespective of the criterion used. To predict FR, the Area Under the Curve for NSR
and NSR
were 0.761 (CI 0.696-0.826, p<0.001) and 0.723 (CI 0.656-0.790, p<0.001), respectively. Hence, both NSR criteria demonstrated a fair ability to discriminate between functional remitters and non-remitters.

Depending on the setting and needs, clinicians and researchers might employ either the full BNSS or an abbreviated 5-item BNSS scale to identify NSR in schizophrenia. More research is needed to further examine the validity of these criteria in schizophrenia.

Microfold cells (M cells) are immunosurveillance epithelial cells located in the Peyer's patches (PPs) in the intestine and are responsible for monitoring and transcytosis of antigens, microorganisms, and pathogens. Mature M cells use the receptor glycoprotein 2 (GP2) to aid in transcytosis. Recent studies have shown transcription factors, Spi-B and SRY-Box Transcription Factor 8 (Sox8). are necessary for M-cell differentiation, but not sufficient. An exhaustive set of factors sufficient for differentiation and development of a mature GP2+ M cell remains elusive. Our aim was to understand the role of polycomb repressive complex 2 (PRC2) as an epigenetic regulator of M-cell development. Estrogen-related-receptor γ (Esrrg), identified as a PRC2-regulated gene, was studied in depth, in addition to its relationship with Spi-B and Sox8.

Comparative chromatin immunoprecipitation and global run-on sequencing analysis of mouse intestinal organoids were performed in stem condition, enterocyte conditions, and recepn Omnibus database (GSE157629).
PRC2 regulates a significant set of genes in M cells including Esrrg, which is critical for M-cell development and differentiation. Loss of Esrrg led to an immature M-cell phenotype lacking in Sox8 and Gp2 expression. Transcript profiling the data have been deposited in the NCBI Gene Expression Omnibus database (GSE157629).
The prevalence of psychiatric comorbidity in nonesophageal eosinophilic gastrointestinal disorders (EGIDs) has not been studied. We aimed to ascertain the prevalence of psychiatric diagnoses and psychiatric medication use in children, adolescents, and adults with EGIDs and to assess whether psychiatric comorbidity affects clinical presentation.

This was a retrospective cohort study of newly diagnosed patients with a nonesophageal EGID at the University of North Carolina from 2008 to 2020. Psychiatric diagnoses and medications were extracted from medical records. We compared the clinical and demographic features of EGID patients with and without psychiatric diagnoses.

Of 79 patients (mean 23.3 years of age, 53% male, 78% White) with a nonesophageal EGID diagnosis, 40 (51%) were diagnosed with a comorbid psychiatric disease. selleck inhibitor Anxiety (37%) and depression (28%) were most common. There were also 40 (51%) patients treated medically for a psychiatric diagnosis. Patients with a psychiatric diagnosis were more commonly ≥18 years of age at the time of EGID diagnosis (odds ratio [OR], 3.95, 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.20-13.02) and had endorsed symptoms of nausea (OR, 5.31; 95% CI, 1.33-21.22) and dysphagia (OR, 4.24; 95% CI, 1.18-15.26).

Psychiatric diagnoses were very common in nonesophageal EGID patients with approximately 7 in 10 adults and one-third of children diagnosed. Similar proportions were found for psychiatric medication use. We also found that psychiatric illness may influence age of clinical presentation and symptoms. Providers should assess for concomitant psychiatric comorbidities in EGID patients.

Sugar-sweetened beverages (SSBs) are a promising target. First, SSBs are associated with nonalcoholic fatty liver disease, and interventions to reduce SSB consumption reduce the burden of liver fat.1 Second, formal guidance uniformly recommend against SSBs.2 Herein, we analyze the 2017-2018 wave of the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES), examining a nationally representative sample of persons without comorbidities or known liver disease to examine the associations between SSB consumption and both liver fibrosis and liver fat using vibration-controlled transient elastography.
The purpose of this systematic review was to evaluate surgical treatment for malformations of the cervix in terms of short- and long-term postoperative function and relevant reproductive outcomes.

International Prospective Register of Systematic Reviews (ID No CRD42019128899). Electronic databases were searched for eligible studies up to October 2019 on Medline/PubMed (1966-2019), Scopus/Elsevier (1950-2019), and Google Scholar (up to 2019). Search terms included "congenital cervical malformations/anomalies," "uterocervical aplasia/dysgenesis/agenesis," "cervical aplasia/dysgenesis/ agenesis," "müllerian anomalies/dysgenesis/agenesis," "utero-vaginal anastomosis," "cervical reconstruction," "uterocervical reconstruction/canalization," "cervical canalization," "reproductive/pregnancy/functional outcome," "menstruation," "pregnancy," and "regular periods."

Studies were chosen and included with clear description of preoperative diagnosis via sonography, magnetic resonance imaging, and surgical confirmation; assessment and clear description of gynecologic anatomy and any concomitant anomalies; meticulous description of the operative technique; follow-up of at least 6 weeks postoperatively; and postoperative end points including menstrual and reproductive outcomes.
