8 tips for talking (and listening) to your teens about drugs and alcohol How families can have better, nonjudgmental conversations
https://magazine.medlineplus.gov/article/8-tips-for-talking-and-listening-to-your-teens-about-drugs-and-alcohol?utm_medium=email&utm_source=govdelivery
Talking to your children about drugs and alcohol can be…well, awkward. It’s hard to know what to ask them, what to say, and if you’ll get through to them. But talking about substance use is important for promoting healthy behaviors. If you’re not sure how to get the conversation started, these tips from the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA) may help. No matter what, be open-minded, well-informed,
A better way to say that: Stigmatizing language affects how we treat addiction
https://magazine.medlineplus.gov/article/a-better-way-to-say-that-stigmatizing-language-affects-how-we-treat-addiction?utm_medium=email&utm_source=govdelivery
Substance use disorders (SUDs) are chronic, treatable conditions that people can recover from, but stigma around them makes it hard to seek treatment. SUDs are very common and can affect anyone, but the disorders are often misunderstood. In 2023, an estimated 16% of people with SUDs reported that they did not seek treatment because they worried about what their community would think. Stigma refers to negative attitudes about people based on their
The Eyes Have it: A Functional Role for Prion Protein
https://www.niaid.nih.gov/news-events/prion-role-light?utm_campaign=+62411034&utm_content=&utm_medium=email&utm_source=govdelivery&utm_term=
In the early 1980s, scientists identified clumps of abnormal, misfolded prion protein in mammals as the cause of brain-wasting diseases, now called prion diseases. Human prion diseases include Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease, fatal familial insomnia and kuru; animal prion diseases include scrapie in sheep and chronic wasting disease in cervids. Since identifying prion protein, researchers have struggled to answer: What do they do? A new study published in iScience from NIAID scientists at Rocky Mountain Laboratories in Hamilton, Montana, and colleagues provides details of how prion protein functions in the retina of mouse eyes, helping them respond to light. The researchers believe the prion protein must be present for rods and cones to function normally. The team hopes these findings help colleagues who study prion diseases better understand what might occur in humans when natural forms of prion protein are therapeutically removed. New treatment strategies for prion diseases focus on using drugs that remove natural prion protein to eliminate the potential for misfolding and clumping. The findings also could extend to other protein-related neurodegenerative diseases, such as Alzheimer’s (amyloid beta protein) and Parkinson’s diseases (alpha synuclein protein).

Drug Trials Snapshots: YORVIPATH (palopegteriparatide) injection
YORVIPATH is a parathyroid hormone analog that is approved for the treatment of hypoparathyroidism in adults. Hypoparathyroidism is a disease in which there is insufficient parathyroid hormone (PTH) production, which leads to hypocalcemia (blood calcium levels that are low).

Multiple sclerosis 2024: Clinical trials for progressive multiple sclerosis: progress, new lessons learned, and remaining challenges Chataway et al. The Lancet Neurology
Executive Summary
Multiple sclerosis is an immune-mediated disease of the central nervous system and a leading cause of neurological disability. Considerable progress in imaging techniques and fluid biomarkers have enhanced our understanding of MS, improving diagnostic, prognostic, and treatment monitoring tools. However, understanding the different clinical manifestations, timely diagnosis and treatment success remains a critical unmet need.

Respiratory Syncytial Virus Published: September 9, 2024
Executive Summary
Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) is a common cause of lower respiratory tract infection (LRTI) and is responsible for a high burden of hospital admission and mortality in children. RSV–LRTI is also associated with long-term respiratory sequelae. Recent advances show great promise such as RSV vaccines and monoclonal antibodies. In the first of a Series of four papers, disease burden, clinical management, risk factors, and emerging therapies are discussed for severe RSV infection in children. The second paper reviews possible long-term sequelae, addressing inequities. The third paper focuses on RSV infections in adults, highlighting the neglect of this patient group. The fourth paper discusses RSV vaccination and immunoprophylaxis in young children, as well as exploring potential regulatory, policy, and implementation pathways. It also addresses the health economic evidence to inform product introduction decisions. Evidence reviewed in this Series should help implement preventive strategies to reduce the burden of RSV-related disease in vulnerable populations worldwide.

Head and neck cancer consensus recommendations
Heterogeneity in diagnostic criteria for extranodal extensions results in inconsistencies in clinical decision making. Moreover, there is an urgent need for standardisation of endpoints in clinical trials for head and neck cancer. In this four-part Series by The Lancet Oncology, the Head and Neck Cancer International Group—a consortium of 21 national head and neck oncology research groups—provides consensus recommendations for clear definitions of extranodal extensions and clinical-trial endpoints to inform and standardise clinical practice globally.
