    Abstract The Proposed Specifiers for Conduct Disorder (PSCD; Salekin & Hare, 2016) is a new self-report and informant measure designed to assess psychopathic characteristic domains along with symptoms of conduct disorder in youth. Previous factor analytic studies on the PSCD have found that the items are accounted for by a four-factor model reflecting grandiose-manipulative, callous-unemotional, daring-impulsive, and conduct disorder (CD) symptoms. The present study examined the factor structure, psychometric properties, and criterion-related validity of the parent-report version of the PSCD (PSCD-P) in a nationally representative U.S. sample of children and adolescents (N = 1,091, Mage = 13.39, SD = 2.20, range age = 10-17; 50.0% boys, 76% White). Confirmatory factor analyses for the full (24-item) and a shortened (13-item) PSCD-P revealed good internal reliability estimates and support for the four-factor model (grandiose-manipulative, callous-unemotional, daring-impulsive, CD). Results also provided evidence for (a) measurement invariance of the PSCD-P items across sex, race/ethnicity, and age of the child; (b) convergent validity with CD/oppositional defiant disorder symptoms and discriminant validity with a measure of neuroticism; and (c) criterion-related validity with respect to prosociality, peer and family functioning, reactive and proactive aggression, delinquency, academic performance, and substance use. The prevalence for psychopathic personality propensity was found to be 2%. We discuss clinical and research implications regarding the use of the parent-report version of the PSCD for school-aged children. (PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2024 APA, all rights reserved).

    Abstract Sustained oxidative stress in castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC) cells potentiates the overall tumor microenvironment (TME). Targeting the TME using colony-stimulating factor 1 receptor (CSF1R) inhibition is a promising therapy for CRPC. However, the therapeutic response to sustained CSF1R inhibition (CSF1Ri) is limited as a monotherapy. We hypothesized that one of the underlying causes for the reduced efficacy of CSF1Ri and increased oxidation in CRPC is the upregulation and uncoupling of endothelial nitric oxide synthase (NOS3). Here we show that in high-grade PCa human specimens, NOS3 abundance positively correlates with CSF1-CSF1R signaling and remains uncoupled. The uncoupling diminishes NOS3 generation of sufficient nitric oxide (NO) required for S-nitrosylation of CSF1R at specific cysteine sites (Cys 224, Cys 278, and Cys 830). Exogenous S-nitrosothiol administration (with S-nitrosoglutathione (GSNO)) induces S-nitrosylation of CSF1R and rescues the excess oxidation in tumor regions, in turn suppressing the tumor-promoting cytokines which are ineffectively suppressed by CSF1R blockade. Together these results suggest that NO administration could act as an effective combinatorial partner with CSF1R blockade against CRPC. In this context, we further show that exogenous NO treatment with GSNOR successfully augments the anti-tumor ability of CSF1Ri to effectively reduce the overall tumor burden, decreases the intratumoral percentage of anti-inflammatory macrophages, myeloid-derived progenitor cells and increases the percentage of pro-inflammatory macrophages, cytotoxic T lymphocytes, and effector T cells, respectively. Together, these findings support the concept that the NO-CSF1Ri combination has the potential to act as a therapeutic agent that restores control over TME, which in turn could improve the outcomes of PCa patients.

    Abstract Ketamine, an NMDA receptor antagonist and fast acting antidepressant, produces a rapid burst of glutamate in the ventral medial prefrontal cortex (mPFC). Preclinical studies have demonstrated that pyramidal cell activity in the vmPFC is necessary for the rapid antidepressant response to ketamine in rodents. We sought to characterize the effects of ketamine and its stereoisomers (R and S), as well as a metabolite, (2R,6R)-hydroxynorketamine (HNK), on vmPFC activity using a genetically encoded calcium indicator (GCaMP6f). Ratiometric fiber photometry was utilized to monitor GCaMP6f fluorescence in pyramidal cells of mouse vmPFC prior to and immediately following administration of compounds. GCaMP6f signal was assessed to determine correspondance of activity between compounds. We observed dose dependent effects with (R,S)-ketamine (3-100 mg/kg), with the greatest effects on GCaMP6f activity at 30 mg/kg and lasting up to 20 min. (S)-ketamine (15 mg/kg), which has high affinity for the NMDA receptor channel produced similar effects to (R,S)-ketamine, but compounds with low NMDA receptor affinity, including (R)-ketamine (15 mg/kg) and (2R,6R)-HNK (30 mg/kg) had little or no effect on GCaMP6f activity. The initial response to administration of (R,S)-ketamine as well as (S)-ketamine is characterized by a brief period of robust GCaMP6f activation, consistent with increased activity of vmPFC pyramidal neurons. Because (2R,6R)-HNK and (R)-ketamine are reported to have antidepressant activity in rodent models the current results indicate that different initiating mechanisms lead to similar brain adaptive consequences that underlie the rapid antidepressant responses.

    Abstract Background: Little is known about real-world COVID-19 vaccine effectiveness (VE) in racially and ethnically diverse, elderly populations with high comorbidity burden.
    Objective: To determine the effectiveness of messenger RNA COVID-19 vaccines.
    Design: Target trial emulation study comparing newly vaccinated persons with matched unvaccinated controls.
    Setting: U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs health care system.
    Participants: Among persons receiving care in the Veterans Affairs health care system (
    Intervention: Follow-up for SARS-CoV-2 infection or SARS-CoV-2-related death, defined as death within 30 days of infection, began after the vaccination date or an identical index date for the matched unvaccinated controls and continued until up to 30 June 2021.
    Measurements: Vaccine effectiveness against SARS-CoV-2 infection or SARS-CoV-2-related death.
    Results: Vaccinated and unvaccinated groups were well matched; both were predominantly male (92.9% vs. 93.4%), had advanced age (mean, 68.7 years in both groups), had diverse racial and ethnic distribution (for example, Black: 17.3% vs. 17.0%, Hispanic: 6.5% vs. 6.1%), and had substantial comorbidity burden. Vaccine effectiveness 7 or more days after the second vaccine dose was 69% (95% CI, 67% to 70%) against SARS-CoV-2 infection and 86% (CI, 82% to 89%) against SARS-CoV-2-related death and was similar when follow-up was extended to 31 March versus 30 June. Vaccine effectiveness against infection decreased with increasing age and comorbidity burden.
    Limitation: Predominantly male population and lack of data on SARS-CoV-2 variants.
    Conclusion: In an elderly, diverse, high-comorbidity population, COVID-19 VE against infection was substantially lower than previously reported, but VE against death was high. Complementary infection mitigation efforts remain important for pandemic control, even with vaccination.
    Primary funding source: U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs.

    Abstract This open access book describes the differences in US census coverage, also referred to as “differential undercount”, by showing which groups have the highest net undercounts and which groups have the greatest undercount differentials, and discusses why such undercounts occur. In addition to focusing on measuring census coverage for several demographic characteristics, including age, gender, race, Hispanic origin status, and tenure, it also considers several of the main hard-to-count populations, such as immigrants, the homeless, the LBGT community, children in foster care, and the disabled. However, given the dearth of accurate undercount data for these groups, they are covered less comprehensively than those demographic groups for which there is reliable undercount data from the Census Bureau. This book is of interest to demographers, statisticians, survey methodologists, and all those interested in census coverage.
