Summary: This review examines the impact of borderline personality disorder (BPD) symptomology and behaviors on occupational capacity, participation, and sustainability. It found that BPD is associated with lower education levels, higher attrition rates in tertiary education, and low employment rates. Negative symptomology acts as a barrier to occupational participation, while positive symptomology such as boldness and honesty enable participation. Treatment is crucial, and occupational engagement has positive effects on the disorder. Employment improves symptoms and a long-term treatment plan is essential.

Summary: This study analyzed 72 sets of textual doctor-patient conversations on the Chinese online medical consultation platform Chunyu Doctor and found that repetition is common in online doctor-patient communication. The types and frequencies of repetition are influenced by personal factors and doctor-related factors. Online doctor-patient communication differs from offline communication and reflects increased patient initiative and doctor attention to patient discourse, but it may be affected by gender stereotypes. Online doctor-patient communication is gradually moving towards a patient-centered healthcare pattern.

Summary: The study compares perceptions of sexuality between patients with multiple sclerosis (pwMS) and their treating neurologists (MSologists), finding that while most pwMS consider sexuality important and would like to discuss it with their MSologists, only a small percentage of MSologists actually initiate such discussions. The findings suggest that MSologists should consider their patients' wishes and needs to talk about sexuality during consultations, and there is a strong desire for further medical education on this subject.

Summary: This paper examines the contribution of pilot implementation studies to the wider spread and sustainability of innovation in healthcare systems. Through an empirical examination of an innovation intermediary organization in the English NHS, the study finds that their work in mobilizing pilot-based evidence involves configuring to context, transitioning evidence, and managing the transition. The findings contribute to theory by showing how intermediary roles can support the effective transitioning of pilot-based evidence, leading to more widespread adoption and sustainability of innovation.
