    Abstract Background: Thrombotic microangiopathy (TMA) is a potentially organ and life-threatening condition affecting patients with multiple myeloma (MM). Cases of proteasome inhibitor-induced TMA and specifically carfilzomib-induced TMA have been rarely reported and standards for diagnostic workup and treatment are not available.
    Case presentation: We describe a case of a male MM patient under salvage therapy including proteasome inhibitor carfilzomib following chemotherapy and autologous stem cell transplantation. The patient then developed acute kidney injury with clinical and laboratory signs of TMA. Hemodialysis became necessary and treatment with plasma exchange was initiated followed by therapy with C5 complement inhibitor eculizumab which led to amelioration of kidney function and hemolysis parameters.
    Conclusion: We report a patient with suspected proteasome inhibitor-induced secondary thrombotic microangiopathy that has been successfully treated with plasma exchange and eculizumab, a monoclonal antibody targeting complement factor C5.

    Clinical relevance statement: Hodgkin lymphoma and non-Hodgkin lymphoma exhibit different patterns of tumor response to induction chemotherapy on diffusion-weighted MRI and PET/MRI.
    Key points: • Diffusion-weighted imaging has been proposed as an alternative imaging to assess tumor response without ionizing radiation. • After induction therapy, whole-body diffusion-weighted imaging and PET/MRI revealed a higher agreement in patients with Hodgkin lymphoma than in those with non-Hodgkin lymphoma. • At the end of therapy, whole-body diffusion-weighted imaging and PET/MRI revealed an excellent agreement for overall tumor therapy responses for all lymphoma types.

    Abstract Objective: The purpose of this study was to understand patient characteristics that predict engagement barriers during behavior therapy for ADHD.
    Method: Participants were 121 adolescents with ADHD and parents who received evidence-based behavior therapy for ADHD. Multiple regression examined relationships between six independent variables and frequency of barriers.
    Results: ODD comorbidity and parental ADHD predicted higher frequency of overall barriers. With respect to barriers subtypes, these variables also predicted higher frequencies of cognitive, teen, early-treatment and mid-treatment barriers. Late-treatment, ODD predicted higher frequency of barriers, while minority status predicted lower barriers.
    Conclusions: Adolescents diagnosed with ADHD and comorbid ODD, or who have parents that are also diagnosed with ADHD, are at greatest risk for engagement barriers during behavior therapy. During all phases of treatment, this patient subgroup would benefit from enhancements to standard behavior therapy that focus on therapeutic engagement-particularly targeting teen beliefs about treatment.

    Abstract Objective: To identify barriers to behavior therapy for adolescent ADHD (Supporting Teens' Autonomy Daily; STAND) and understand the relationship between barriers and treatment engagement.
    Method: A mixed-method design with qualitative coding of 822 audio-recorded therapy sessions attended by 121 adolescents with ADHD (ages 11-16; 72.7% male, 77.7% Latinx, 7.4% African-American, 11.6% White, non-Latinx) and parents. Grounded theory methodology identified barriers articulated by parents and adolescents in session. Barriers were sorted by subtype (cognitive/attitudinal, behavioral, logistical) and subject (parent, teen, dyad). Frequency and variety of barriers were calculated by treatment phase (engagement, skills, planning). Generalized linear models and generalized estimating equations examined between-phase differences in frequency of each barrier and relationships between barriers frequency, subtype, subject, and phase on engagement (attendance and homework completion).
    Results: Coding revealed twenty-five engagement barriers (ten cognitive/attitudinal, eleven behavioral, four logistical). Common barriers were: low adolescent desire (72.5%), parent failure to monitor skill application (69.4%), adolescent forgetfulness (60.3%), and adolescent belief that no change is needed (56.2%). Barriers were most commonly cognitive/attitudinal, teen-related, and occurring in STAND's planning phase. Poorer engagement was associated with cognitive/attitudinal, engagement phase, and dyadic barriers. Higher engagement in treatment was predicted by more frequent behavioral, logistical, parent, and skills/planning phase barriers.
    Conclusions: Baseline assessment of barriers may promote individualized engagement strategies for adolescent ADHD treatment. Cognitive/attitudinal barriers should be targeted at treatment outset using evidence-based engagement strategies (e.g., Motivational Interviewing). Behavioral and logistical barriers should be addressed when planning and reviewing application of skills.

    Abstract Optic nerve sheath meningiomas (ONSMs) are rare and benign tumors that affect the optic nerve. Although surgical decompression may be used for large tumors that cause mass effect on the surrounding structures, the mainstay of treatment is radiotherapy. We report the case of a 54-year-old female patient who presented with progressive vision loss due to a recurrent right ONSM despite fractionated radiotherapy eight years prior and the subsequent interval regression of the tumor. The optical coherence tomography at the time of recurrence revealed thinning of the right retinal nerve fiber layer. She underwent salvage stereotactic radiosurgery using a marginal dose of 15 Gy. At six months post-radiosurgery, the patient had a dramatic improvement in visual acuity and visual fields despite persistent thinning of the retinal nerve fiber layer. This case illustrates how salvage radiosurgery can be a useful treatment modality in these challenging situations. This tumor's exophytic growth and the steep dose fall-off of Gamma Knife radiosurgery might favorably affect visual recovery. However, the outcomes of single-session radiosurgery for ONSMs should be further evaluated.
