Summary: This study systematically reviewed and meta-analyzed the bidirectional relationship between peer functioning and social anxiety during adolescence. The findings showed a significant bidirectional association with social anxiety across three dimensions of peer functioning, supporting the hypothesis that peer functioning and social anxiety influence each other.

Summary: This scoping review assessed existing peer review guidelines for biomedical journals, identifying a total of 1,811 checklist items. Items related to Methods, Results, and Discussion were found to be highly discussed in reviewer guidelines. The variation in review guidelines across journals and publishers calls for further research to determine the need for uniform review standards for transparent and standardized peer review.

Summary: The quality standards of a journal can limit the outcome of peer review by constraining the improvement of quality and reducing the motivation of reviewers to enhance the quality of their reviews. This phenomenon is known as quality censoring, which results in a zero probability of payment for reviewers due to the ignorance of these constraints.

Summary: This article supplements macro-institutional explanations of the audit society with a micro-foundational analysis grounded in a process model. The model suggests that the logic of the audit trail is strongly performative of the conditions of its own reproduction and expansion.

Summary: Peer review practices in radiotherapy show significant variation between institutions internationally, with a lack of consensus on documentation and reporting, as well as grading of outcomes. It is necessary to develop a framework for standardizing the process and outcome documentation for peer review.

Summary: This article summarizes studies on the effects of non-professionally led peer-to-peer (PTP) support in cancer. The findings show that PTP support has only small effects on depression/anxiety, coping, and sexual functioning, but has beneficial effects in BRCA, face-to-face settings, and cancer-specific quality of life outcomes.

Summary: This Perspective examines the potential of integrating liquid biopsy analyses into the PhAT, focusing on the use of plasma circulating cell-free tumour DNA and circulating tumour cells as prognostic, predictive, pharmacodynamic, clinical response and resistance biomarkers. The authors also emphasize the importance of analytical validation and clinical qualification in this context.

Summary: With the development of WSI scanners and artificial intelligence algorithms, computational WSI analysis is becoming possible, but it faces challenges in dealing with artifacts. This review focuses on computational approaches for quality control in WSI, addressing issues such as sample preparation artifacts, compression artifacts, color variations, and out-of-focus areas. The importance of implementing quality control measures is confirmed through analysis of WSI clinical routine, and perspectives on including a computational quality process in pathology diagnosis pipeline are drawn.

Summary: This study fills a crucial gap in current research by introducing a measurement scale for assessing peer engagement behavior in peer-to-peer platforms. The study reveals that the quality of relationships has a direct impact on peer engagement and value co-creation, offering both theoretical and practical implications.

Summary: This study aimed to assess the economic benefits of audit and feedback (A&F) interventions for improving compliance to healthcare guidelines. The findings suggest that A&F interventions may have a high potential for cost-effectiveness, especially in studies based on health outcomes and with high reporting quality. However, publication bias may have led to an overestimation of their economic value.

Summary: Advancements in digital pathology have led to increased adoption in human medical pathology, but challenges remain in toxicologic pathology, particularly in regulatory studies. International workshops are being held to assess current applications, challenges, and outline minimal requirements for gaining regulatory acceptance in toxicologic pathology workflows.

Summary: The integration of digital pathology platforms with artificial intelligence has the potential to enhance workflow efficiency for nonclinical pathologists by screening slides with lesions and highlighting areas with specific lesions. This study compared single- and multi-magnification convolutional neural network architectures for detecting lesions in tissues, evaluating performance characteristics across key rat organs. The use of CNN-based models allows for generalized lesion detection in whole-slide images, potentially generating novel quantitative data.

Summary: The imbalance between production and clearance of Aβ peptides is a crucial step in AD pathogenesis, making Aβ a promising therapeutic target. Research has shown that a high-affinity antibody targeting Aβ peptides with a pyroglutamate residue at amino acid position 3 can significantly reduce amyloid burden in mouse brains. Furthermore, combining this antibody treatment with chronic BACE1 inhibitor treatment leads to significant clearance of pre-existing amyloid deposits in the brain without inducing microhemorrhages or other histopathological findings.

Summary: JNJ-64794964, an oral toll-like receptor 7 agonist, shows promising anti-hepatitis B activity by significantly reducing HBV DNA and surface antigen levels, inducing antibody and specific T cell production, and promoting cytokine-mediated, non-cytolytic mechanisms. This drug has the potential to improve immune response, reduce liver damage and inflammation compared to traditional treatments for chronic hepatitis B.

Summary: Digital toxicologic histopathology is widely used in preclinical compound development and there is increasing interest in implementing it for good laboratory practice-regulated study evaluations. However, implementation is not straightforward due to the need for qualification, validation, and security considerations. The European Society of Toxicologic Pathology organized an international expert workshop to discuss qualification and validation of digital histopathology systems in a good laboratory practice environment.
