ABSTRACT Objective Method Results Discussion Negative affect is central to eating disorder maintenance models; identifying mechanisms underlying this link may inform specific treatment targets. The current study evaluated which emotions (i.e., distress, fear, and moral emotions) were most strongly linked to feeling fat and tested feeling fat as a longitudinal mediator of the relationship between these emotions and restricting or binge eating (https://osf.io/3d5cq/).Community adults (N = 714, M[SD] age = 41.5[13.7], 84.6% female, 85.9% white) provided data at baseline, 3‐month, and 6‐month follow‐up. Relative weights analysis examined which emotion categories exhibited the strongest longitudinal relationships with feeling fat. Cross‐lagged panel models tested feeling fat as a mediator of the relationship between emotions and eating disorder behaviors.Distress and moral emotions were the strongest emotional predictors of feeling fat. Feeling fat predicted binge eating (p's < 0.001), but not restricting (p's ≥ 0.832), in random effects cross‐lagged panel models. Feeling fat partially mediated the longitudinal relationship between distress and binge eating (p = 0.044); however, this effect became nonsignificant after adjusting for BMI (p = 0.354). Feeling fat did not mediate relationships between moral emotions and binge eating or between either distress or moral emotions and restricting (p's ≥ 0.638).Feeling fat was associated with binge eating, not restricting, highlighting the importance of specificity in maintenance models. Because the mediating effect of feeling fat was accounted for by body size, factors associated with body size, such as internalized weight stigma, may be more relevant mediators of the relationship between negative emotions and eating disorder behaviors. Future research on feeling fat should adjust for body size. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Sexual abuse or assault (SA) history is associated with eating disorder severity and psychiatric comorbidity, including post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). Beyond persistent alterations in mood and cognitions characterizing PTSD, PTSD due to SA may contribute to greater increases in negative affect and body image concerns following food intake in bulimic syndromes (BN-S). To test this, participants (n = 172) with BN-S who reported PTSD due to SA, PTSD due to other forms of trauma, or neither completed clinical interviews and momentary reports of negative affect and shape/weight preoccupation before and after food intake. Participants with PTSD, regardless of trauma source, reported higher purging frequency whereas PTSD due to SA was associated with more frequent loss of control eating. For one task, changes in negative affect following food intake differed across the three groups. Negative affect decreased significantly in participants with PTSD without SA whereas nonsignificant increases were observed in those with PTSD with SA. Results of the present study suggest that source of trauma in PTSD may impact likelihood that eating regulates affect and provide insight into ways current treatments may be adapted to better target purging in BN-S comorbid with PTSD.

: Introduction: Transgender people in South Africa are disproportionately affected by HIV, discrimination and stigma. Access to healthcare and health outcomes are poor. Although integrating gender‐affirming healthcare with differentiated HIV prevention, care and treatment services has shown improvement in HIV service uptake and health outcomes among transgender people, evidence is lacking on the implementation of differentiated service delivery models in southern Africa. This article describes a differentiated service delivery model across four South African sites and transgender individuals who access these services. We assess whether hormone therapy (HT) is associated with continued use of pre‐exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) and viral load suppression. Methods: In 2019, differentiated healthcare centres for transgender individuals opened in four South African districts, providing gender‐affirming healthcare and HIV services at a primary healthcare level. Routine programme data were collected between October 2019 and June 2021. Descriptive statistics summarized patient characteristics and engagement with HIV prevention and treatment services. We conducted a multivariate logistic regression analysis to determine whether HT was associated with viral load suppression and PrEP continued use. Results: In the review period, we reached 5636 transgender individuals through peer outreach services; 86% (4829/5636) of them accepted an HIV test and 62% (3535/5636) were linked to clinical services. Among these, 89% (3130/3535) were transgender women, 5% (192/3535) were transgender men and 6% (213/3535) were gender non‐conforming individuals. Of those who received an HIV test, 14% (687/4829) tested positive and 91% of those initiated antiretroviral treatment. Viral load suppression was 75% in this cohort. PrEP was accepted by 28% (1165/4142) of those who tested negative. Five percent (161/3535) reported ever receiving HT through the public healthcare system. Service users who received HT were three‐fold more likely to achieve viral load suppression. We did not find any association between HT and continued use of PrEP. Conclusions: A differentiated HIV and gender‐affirming service delivery model at a primary healthcare level is feasible and can enhance service access in South Africa. HT can improve HIV clinical outcomes for transgender people. As trust is established between the providers and population, uptake of HIV testing and related services may increase further., INTRODUCTION South Africa bears 19% of the global HIV burden, with over 7.7 million people living with HIV [1]. The risk for HIV varies considerably between population groups, and globally [...]

Objective: Individuals with bulimia nervosa (BN) engage in both maladaptive (i.e., compulsive and/or compensatory) and adaptive exercise (e.g., for enjoyment). No research has examined whether those who engage in adaptive, compulsive, and/or compensatory exercise exhibit differences in BN pathology or treatment outcome compared to those not engaging in exercise, limiting intervention efficacy. Method: We examined associations of baseline exercise engagement with baseline and posttreatment BN pathology among 106 treatment‐seeking adults (Mage = 37.4, SDage = 12.95, 87.74% female, 68.87% White) enrolled across four clinical trials of outpatient enhanced cognitive behavioral therapy for BN (range: 12–16 sessions). Analysis of covariances examined associations between baseline exercise type and baseline/posttreatment global eating pathology, dietary restraint, loss‐of‐control (LOC) eating, and purging frequency. Results: Those engaging in only adaptive exercise reported lower global eating pathology compared to those engaging in compulsive‐only exercise (Est = −1.493, p =.014, Mdiff = −.97) while those engaging in baseline compulsive exercise reported less LOC eating compared to those not engaging in exercise (Est = −22.42, p =.012, Mdiff = −12.50). Baseline engagement in compulsive‐only exercise was associated with lower posttreatment global eating pathology compared to baseline engagement in no exercise (Est = −.856, p =.023, Mdiff = −.64) and both compulsive and compensatory exercise (Est =.895, p =.026, Mdiff = −1.08). Discussion: Those engaging in compulsive, compensatory, adaptive, and no exercise exhibit different patterns and severity of BN pathology. Future research is needed to position treatments to intervene on maladaptive, while still promoting adaptive, exercise. Public significance statement: No research to date has examined whether those who engage in adaptive, compulsive, and/or compensatory exercise exhibit differences in BN pathology or treatment outcome compared to those not engaging in exercise, limiting targeted intervention efforts. We found that those engaging in compulsive, compensatory, and adaptive exercise exhibit different patterns of BN pathology and that adaptive exercise engagement was related to lower cognitive eating disorder symptoms at baseline.

To deepen our understanding of sex work stigma, and to its drivers and their interrelation, we conducted an analysis using structural equation modelling of the South African National Sex Worker Survey. We enrolled 3005 women in sex work using multi-stage sampling across all South Africa's provinces. Experience of external/enacted and internalised stigma was widespread. Non-partner rape, intimate partner violence and partner controlling behaviour (often expressions of external/enacted stigma) compounded internalised stigma. These experiences of violence, other manifestations of external/enacted stigma and food insecurity, were key drivers of internalised stigma, and often had an impact on mental health. We found that considerable protection against stigma emanated from viewing sex work positively. This resistance to stigma provided opportunities to shift the narrative. Reducing sex workers' exposure to external/enacted stigmatising behaviour, including by enabling more to work indoors, and providing greater protection from partner violence and rape, are critical for better health and well-being. Ending the criminalisation of sex work is foundational for safer working conditions and better health outcomes for sex workers, similarly providing adequately funded mental and physical health and social care through sex work specific programmes.

Exercise is typically adaptive across populations, except in individuals with eating disorders including bulimia nervosa. Up to 55% of individuals with bulimia nervosa engage in maladaptive exercise (Davis et al., 1997) which is either compensatory or compulsive in nature. However, some individuals with eating disorders engage in non-maladaptive exercise (i.e., exercise for enjoyment or general health benefits; Cash et al., 1994) and some people do not engage in any exercise. Maladaptive exercise engagement has been associated with poor treatment outcomes (Bardone-Cone et al., 2016; Carter et al., 2004; Kostrzewa et al., 2013). Alternatively, adaptive exercise has been linked to better treatment outcomes (Calogero & Pedrotty, 2004; Lampe et al., 2022; Mathisen et al., 2018; Pendleton et al., 2002; Sundgot-Borgen et al., 2002). Less is known about treatment outcomes for individuals with bulimia nervosa who engage in non-maladaptive exercise and no research has examined differences in treatment outcomes between individuals with bulimia nervosa who engage in non-maladaptive, maladaptive and no exercise. If engagement in non-maladaptive exercise is associated with better treatment outcomes, treatments should help patients find ways to engage in non-maladaptive exercise. The present study will examine whether baseline exercise type (non-maladaptive only, compulsive-only, compensatory-only, compulsive and compensatory, or no exercise) is cross-sectionally associated with eating disorder symptoms (i.e., dietary restraint, frequency of loss of control eating, and global eating disorder pathology) and prospectively associated with treatment outcomes among 106 individuals with bulimia nervosa.

FOS: Psychology ,Clinical Psychology ,Psychology ,Social and Behavioral Sciences - Abstract
The body displacement hypothesis seeks to explain feeling fat as a result of mislabeling negative emotions (McFarlane et al., 2011). Individuals who mislabel negative emotions as feeling fat may be more likely to attempt to alleviate the uncomfortable sensation of feeling fat through eating disorder behaviors (Mehak et al., 2022; Trolio et al., 2021). Distress, negative moral emotions (e.g., guilt, shame), and fear-based emotions have all been associated with feeling fat in prior research (Anderson et al., 2022; Levinson et al., 2020; Mehak et al., 2022; Morales et al., 2022). When multiple emotion variables (e.g., guilt, shame, negative affect, anxiety sensitivity, depression, fear of negative evaluation, alexithymia) are examined in the same model, depression shows the strongest cross-sectional (Morales et al., 2022) and longitudinal associations with feeling fat at one month follow-up (Levinson et al., 2020). Depressive symptoms are heterogenous (i.e., comprise appetitive, somatic, and sleep-related complaints) and current treatments for eating disorders recommend treating depression before treating the eating disorder (Fairburn, 2008). Therefore, understanding which specific emotion categories are most likely to be mislabeled as feeling fat longitudinally will enable clinicians to help patients generate more specific emotion regulation skills to reduce feeling fat.

16. Emotion differentiation as a moderator in the relationship between interoceptive sensibility and body dissatisfaction

FOS: Psychology ,Clinical Psychology ,Psychology ,Social and Behavioral Sciences - Abstract
Body image is influenced by many factors including interoception and emotion regulation (Todd et al., 2019; Asberg & Wagaman, 2010). Past research supports a link between deficits in interoceptive sensibility (i.e., one’s self-reported ability to attend to internal bodily signals; Garfinkel et al., 2015) and body image concerns (i.e., body dissatisfaction; Badoud & Tsakiris, 2017). Less is known about underlying mechanisms which may influence the strength of this relationship (Badoud & Tsakiris, 2017). A component of emotion regulation which may be particularly salient in the relationship between interoceptive sensibility and body dissatisfaction is emotion differentiation (i.e., one’s ability to distinguish between discrete negative and positive emotion states; Feldman-Barrett et al., 2001). The interpretation of internal bodily signals and emotions are highly interconnected (Füstös et al., 2012); however, there is little work regarding the role of emotion differentiation on body dissatisfaction. The present study seeks to examine how emotion differentiation moderates the relationship between interoceptive sensibility and body dissatisfaction, and whether high emotion differentiation serves as a protective factor for body dissatisfaction, even in the context of deficits in interoceptive sensibility.

17. The Effects of Positive Behavioral Interventions and Supports on Students Behavior in Grade Five

Hill, Naomi O.
- Abstract
The alarming rise of office referrals, suspensions, and expulsions among students in public schools, have been a major concern for stakeholders in learning communities throughout the country. The Individuals with Disabilities Act (2001) and The No Child Left Behind Act (2001) mandated state and local educational agencies to implement scientific research strategies and interventions to better manage students exhibiting disorderly and disruptive behaviors in school. The purpose of this study is to examine the effects of school-wide Positive Behavioral and Intervention Supports (PBIS) on student's behavior in grade five in a large school district in Maryland. A random sampling of five PBIS schools participated in this program evaluation study. A mixed methods methodology using quantitative and qualitative methods was used to capture a triangulation of data from school principals and fifth grade teachers. Outcomes of the study revealed no significant increase in office referrals in the five schools, but increases in the rate of short-term suspensions in the year following implementation in 2009-2010. Differences in the rates showed rate increases for two schools following PBIS implementation in 2009-2010, and a negligible decrease in rates for the other schools. One school reported a suspension rate increase that was significantly larger than the rate reported prior to implementation in 2007-2008. One plausible explanation for more suspensions may have been the increased focus on collecting data during 2008-2009 and after PBIS 2009-2010 implementation in that one school. Finally, data collected suggested that fighting was significantly more likely to result in office referrals and behavior problems were more likely to occur in non-classroom settings.

Background The DNA-damage immune-response (DDIR) signature is an immune-driven gene expression signature retrospectively validated as predicting response to anthracycline-based therapy. This feasibility study prospectively evaluates the use of this assay to predict neoadjuvant chemotherapy response in early breast cancer. Methods This feasibility study assessed the integration of a novel biomarker into clinical workflows. Tumour samples were collected from patients receiving standard of care neoadjuvant chemotherapy (FEC + /−taxane and anti-HER2 therapy as appropriate) at baseline, mid- and post-chemotherapy. Baseline DDIR signature scores were correlated with pathological treatment response. RNA sequencing was used to assess chemotherapy/response-related changes in biologically linked gene signatures. Results DDIR signature reports were available within 14 days for 97.8% of 46 patients (13 TNBC, 16 HER2 + ve, 27 ER + HER2-ve). Positive scores predicted response to treatment (odds ratio 4.67 for RCB 0-1 disease (95% CI 1.13–15.09, P = 0.032)). DDIR positivity correlated with immune infiltration and upregulated immune-checkpoint gene expression. Conclusions This study validates the DDIR signature as predictive of response to neoadjuvant chemotherapy which can be integrated into clinical workflows, potentially identifying a subgroup with high sensitivity to anthracycline chemotherapy. Transcriptomic data suggest induction with anthracycline-containing regimens in immune restricted, “cold” tumours may be effective for immune priming. Trial registration Not applicable (non-interventional study). CRUK Internal Database Number 14232.

Third-generation aromatase inhibitors are more effective than tamoxifen for preventing recurrence in postmenopausal women with hormone-receptor-positive invasive breast cancer. However, it is not known whether anastrozole is more effective than tamoxifen for women with hormone-receptor-positive ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS). Here, we compare the efficacy of anastrozole with that of tamoxifen in postmenopausal women with hormone-receptor-positive DCIS.In a double-blind, multicentre, randomised placebo-controlled trial, we recruited women who had been diagnosed with locally excised, hormone-receptor-positive DCIS. Eligible women were randomly assigned in a 1:1 ratio by central computer allocation to receive 1 mg oral anastrozole or 20 mg oral tamoxifen every day for 5 years. Randomisation was stratified by major centre or hub and was done in blocks (six, eight, or ten). All trial personnel, participants, and clinicians were masked to treatment allocation and only the trial statistician had access to treatment allocation. The primary endpoint was all recurrence, including recurrent DCIS and new contralateral tumours. All analyses were done on a modified intention-to-treat basis (in all women who were randomised and did not revoke consent for their data to be included) and proportional hazard models were used to compute hazard ratios and corresponding confidence intervals. This trial is registered at the ISRCTN registry, number ISRCTN37546358.Between March 3, 2003, and Feb 8, 2012, we enrolled 2980 postmenopausal women from 236 centres in 14 countries and randomly assigned them to receive anastrozole (1449 analysed) or tamoxifen (1489 analysed). Median follow-up was 7·2 years (IQR 5·6-8·9), and 144 breast cancer recurrences were recorded. We noted no statistically significant difference in overall recurrence (67 recurrences for anastrozole vs 77 for tamoxifen; HR 0·89 [95% CI 0·64-1·23]). The non-inferiority of anastrozole was established (upper 95% CI

- Abstract
Background: Almost 60% of transgender people in South Africa are living with HIV. Ending the HIV epidemic will require that transgender people successfully access HIV prevention and treatment. However, transgender people often avoid health services due to facility-based stigma and lack of availability of gender-affirming care. Transgender-specific differentiated service delivery (TG-DSD) may improve engagement and facilitate progress toward HIV elimination. Wits RHI, a renowned South African research institute, established 4 TG-DSD demonstration sites in 2019, with funding from the US Agency for International Development. These sites offer unique opportunities to evaluate the implementation of TG-DSD and test their effectiveness., Objective: The Jabula Uzibone study seeks to assess the implementation, effectiveness, and cost of TG-DSD for viral suppression and prevention-effective adherence., Methods: The Jabula Uzibone study collects baseline and 12-month observation checklists at 8 sites and 6 (12.5%) key informant interviews per site at 4 TG-DSD and 4 standard sites (n=48). We seek to enroll ≥600 transgender clients, 50% at TG-DSD and 50% at standard sites: 67% clients with HIV and 33% clients without HIV per site type. Participants complete interviewer-administered surveys quarterly, and blood is drawn at baseline and 12 months for HIV RNA levels among participants with HIV and tenofovir levels among participants on pre-exposure prophylaxis. A subset of 30 participants per site type will complete in-depth interviews at baseline and 12 months: 15 participants will be living with HIV and 15 participants will be HIV negative. Qualitative analyses will explore aspects of implementation; regression models will compare viral suppression and prevention-effective adherence by site type. Structural equation modeling will test for mediation by stigma and gender affirmation. Microcosting approaches will estimate the cost per service user served and per service user successfully treated at TG-DSD sites relative to standard sites, as well as the budget needed for a broader implementation of TG-DSD., Results: Funded by the US National Institutes of Mental Health in April 2022, the study was approved by the Human Research Ethics Committee at University of Witwatersrand in June 2022 and the Duke University Health System Institutional Review Board in June 2023. Enrollment began in January 2024. As of July 31, 2024, a total of 593 transgender participants have been enrolled: 348 are living with HIV and 245 are HIV negative. We anticipate baseline enrollment will be complete by August 31, 2024, and the final study visit will take place no later than August 2025., Conclusions: Jabula Uzibone will provide data to inform HIV policies and practices in South Africa and generate the first evidence for implementation of TG-DSD in sub-Saharan Africa. Study findings may inform the use of TG-DSD strategies to increase care engagement and advance global progress toward HIV elimination goals., International Registered Report Identifier (irrid): DERR1-10.2196/64373., (©Tonia Poteat, Rutendo Bothma, Innocent Maposa, Cheryl Hendrickson, Gesine Meyer-Rath, Naomi Hill, Audrey Pettifor, John Imrie.
