BACKGROUND: Medical record abstraction (MRA) and self-report questionnaires are two methods frequently used to ascertain cancer treatment information. Prior studies have shown excellent agreement between MRA and self-report, but it is unknown how a recall window longer than 3 years may affect this agreement.
METHODS: The Women\'s Environmental Cancer and Radiation Epidemiology (WECARE) Study is a multicenter, population-based case-control study of controls with unilateral breast cancer individually matched to cases with contralateral breast cancer. Participants who were diagnosed with a first primary breast cancer from 1985 to 2008 before the age of 55 years completed a questionnaire that included questions on treatment. First primary breast cancer treatment information was abstracted from the medical record from radiation oncology clinic notes for radiation treatment and from systemic adjuvant treatment reports for hormone therapy and chemotherapy. Agreement between MRA and self-reported treatment was assessed with the kappa statistic and corresponding 95% confidence intervals (CIs).
RESULTS: A total of 2808 participants with MRA and self-reported chemotherapy treatment information, 2733 participants with MRA and self-reported hormone therapy information, and 2905 participants with MRA and self-reported radiation treatment information were identified. The median recall window was 12.5 years (range, 2.8-22.2 years). MRA and self-reported treatment agreement was excellent across treatment modalities (kappachemo, 98.5; 95% CI, 97.9-99.2; kappahorm, 87.7; 95% CI, 85.9-89.5; kapparad, 97.9; 95% CI, 97.0-98.7). There was no heterogeneity across recall windows (pchemo = .46; phorm = .40; prad = .61).
CONCLUSIONS: Agreement between self-reported and MRA primary breast cancer treatment modality information was excellent for young women diagnosed with breast cancer and was maintained even among women whose recall window was more than 20 years after diagnosis.

OBJECTIVE: To perform a psychometric evaluation of a Norwegian version of the Berlin Misophonia Questionnaire Revised (BMQ-R-NOR).
METHODS: Participants completed online versions of the self-report questionnaire BMQ-R-NOR on two occasions and MQ-NOR on one occasion. Convergent validity was assessed through Spearman\'s correlation between BMQ-R-NOR and MQ-NOR. Internal consistency was evaluated with McDonald\'s omega and Cronbach\'s alpha. Test-retest reliability was evaluated using Cohen\'s weighted kappa and intraclass correlation.
METHODS: 82 participants with self-reported misophonia took part in the study at T1, and 53 of these participated at T2. However, only 41 of them were included in the test-retest analyses due to 12 participants being in treatment between T1 and T2.
RESULTS: Subscales from the BMQ-R-NOR and MQ-NOR were significantly positively correlated, indicating evidence of convergent validity (rs = 0.22*-0.74**). The BMQ-R-NOR showed overall good internal consistency (omega = 0.72-0.93; alpha = 0.70-0.93) and satisfactory test-retest reliability (ICC = 0.35-0.92).
CONCLUSIONS: The psychometric properties of the BMQ-R-NOR are considered satisfactory. However, it is advised to exercise caution when using it until further comprehensive validation studies are conducted to ensure robustness and reliability in clinical practice.

BACKGROUND: It is common practice for researchers to monitor responses to items assessing suicidal ideation and follow-up with high-risk participants, when their identities are known. However, it is becoming increasingly common for researchers to administer fully anonymous online surveys that do not allow for follow-ups with participants at higher risk. The aim of the current study was to investigate whether these two different approaches-monitoring and follow-up versus no monitoring or follow-up-affect the willingness of participants to endorse suicidal ideation.
METHODS: The sample included N = 555 undergraduate students, who were randomly assigned to the monitoring (n = 275) or anonymous (n = 280) instruction conditions, with the monitoring condition shifting to anonymous, non-monitored responses at Time 2.
RESULTS: There were no significant differences in self-reported suicidal ideation between those in the monitoring and anonymous condition at Time 1. At Time 2, no significant interaction was identified between condition and time, suggesting that the change in instructions across timepoints for the monitoring condition had no impact on endorsement of suicidal ideation.
CONCLUSIONS: Findings indicate that both monitoring and anonymous instruction methods should elicit the same pattern of endorsements of suicidal ideation.

Emotion reactivity refers to the activation, intensity and duration of emotional responses to internal or external stimuli. It can be differentiated from emotion regulation since the former is the very first response to an emotional trigger, and the latter can be defined as a tool for maintaining one\'s arousal in a window of tolerance. Since, to date, there are no Italian self-report measures able to evaluate individuals\' emotional reactivity, this study aimed to contribute to the Italian validation of the Perth Emotional Reactivity Scale-Short Form (PERS-S). The PERS-S is an 18-item self-report measure answered on a 5-point Likert scale that generates six subscale scores and two composite scores, with higher scores indicating higher levels of reactivity. Data from 768 individuals showed that the PERS-S had good to excellent goodness of fit. The internal consistency was high, with an overall reliability coefficient (Cronbach\'s α) of .87 and .86 for the negative and positive general scales, respectively. The PERS-S also demonstrated appropriate convergent validity, showing significant correlations with conceptually related measures, and acceptable divergent validity, showing minimal correlations with unrelated constructs. Finally, we evaluated the Test-Retest Reliability by administering the PERS-S to the same sample twice, with a 2-week interval. The significant correlations between the two PERS-S administrations suggest temporal stability. The Italian version of the PERS-S will enrich the repertoire of self-report measures for investigating the development and risk factors of mental health disorders and may have practical applications in clinical settings.

BACKGROUND: Self-report of motor and non-motor symptoms is integral to understanding daily challenges of persons with Parkinson\'s disease (PwPD). Care partners are often asked to serve as informants regarding symptom severity, raising the question of concordance with PwPD self-reports, especially regarding internalized (not outwardly visible) symptoms.
OBJECTIVE: Concordance between PwPD and informant ratings of motor and non-motor symptoms was evaluated across multiple domains.
METHODS: In 60 PwPD-informant pairs, we compared ratings on 11 online self-report measures comprising 33 total scores, 2/3 of which represented purely internalized symptoms. For discordant scores, multiple regression analyses were used to examine demographic/clinical predictors.
RESULTS: Though concordant on 85% of measures, PwPD endorsed more non-motor symptoms, bodily discomfort, stigma, and motor symptoms than informants. For PwPD, younger age, greater disease severity, and female gender predicted discordance.
CONCLUSIONS: Discordance between PwPD and informants on measures assessing symptoms that cannot be outwardly observed may require targeted education.

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the immediate and late impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the occurrence of possible sleep bruxism (SB) among adolescents in Brazil.
METHODS: This is a longitudinal study performed with adolescents (11-15 years old) from Southern Brazil. Baseline data were collected before the Brazilian COVID-19 outbreak (T1). Posteriorly, data were collected after 3 (T2) and 15 months under the Brazilian COVID-19 outbreak. The possible SB was evaluated by the question: \'Do you grind your teeth during your sleep?\'. Sociodemographic, psychosocial and clinical variables were also collected. Changes in SB were evaluated by multilevel logistic regression models for repeated measures.
RESULTS: Of the 290 adolescents assessed at T1, 182 were reassessed at both follow-ups. The prevalence of possible SB was 13% at T1, 11% at T2 and 22% at T3. There were no immediate effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on the occurrence of possible SB (T2). Adolescents had odds 2.77 times greater of presented possible SB after 15 months (T3) of COVID-19 pandemic scenarios when compared to T1.
CONCLUSIONS: There was a considerable and late increase in the possible SB in adolescents in Brazil during the COVID-19 pandemic.

UNASSIGNED: To investigate the effects of self-management vestibular rehabilitation (VR) on the subjective symptoms of dizziness and postural stability in persistent postural-perceptual dizziness (PPPD).
UNASSIGNED: Retrospective case review.
UNASSIGNED: The medical records of 30 patients newly diagnosed with PPPD based on the Bárány Society\'s diagnostic criteria were reviewed. Nineteen patients (4 males and 15 females; age range 27-84 years, mean age ± standard deviation 57.4 ± 14.2 years) who was newly instructed to self-management VR were included and instructed to perform self-management VR for 2 months.
UNASSIGNED: One patient did not visit the outpatient clinic again, and in the remaining 18 patients, 4 (22%) discontinued VR at their own discretion. In the 12 patients who completed 2 months of VR (67%), there was a significant improvement in Niigata PPPD Questionnaire (NPQ) and Dizziness Handicap Inventory (DHI) scores after VR compared to those before VR (p < .05). However, the mean velocity of center of pressure (COP) movement (velocity) and the envelopment area traced by COP movement (area), as well as the Romberg ratio and foam ratio of velocity and area, did not differ significantly after VR when compared to those before VR (p > .05).
UNASSIGNED: For PPPD, self-management VR improved subjective symptoms of dizziness, but not stability of standing posture. It is necessary to improve patients\' adherence to the treatment.
UNASSIGNED: 4.

BACKGROUND: This study aimed to predict brain amyloid beta (Aβ) status in older adults using collected information from an online registry focused on cognitive aging.
METHODS: Aβ positron emission tomography (PET) was obtained from multiple in-clinic studies. Using logistic regression, we predicted Aβ using self-report variables collected in the Brain Health Registry in 634 participants, as well as a subsample (N = 533) identified as either cognitively unimpaired (CU) or mild cognitive impairment (MCI). Cross-validated area under the curve (cAUC) evaluated the predictive performance.
RESULTS: The best prediction model included age, sex, education, subjective memory concern, family history of Alzheimer\'s disease, Geriatric Depression Scale Short-Form, self-reported Everyday Cognition, and self-reported cognitive impairment. The cross-validated AUCs ranged from 0.62 to 0.66. This online model could help reduce between 15.2% and 23.7% of unnecessary Aβ PET scans in CU and MCI populations.
CONCLUSIONS: The findings suggest that a novel, online approach could aid in Aβ prediction.

Measurement of self-reported lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) typically uses a recall period, for example, \"In the past 30 days….\" Compared to averaged daily reports, 30-day recall is generally unbiased, but recall bias varies by item. We examined the associations between personal characteristics (eg, age, symptom bother) and 30-day recall of LUTS using items from the Symptoms of Lower Urinary Tract Dysfunction Research Network Comprehensive Assessment of Self-reported Urinary Symptoms questionnaire.
Participants (127 women and 127 men) were recruited from 6 US tertiary care sites. They completed daily assessments for 30 days and a 30-day recall assessment at the end of the study month. For each of the 18 tested items, representing 10 LUTS, the average of the participant\'s daily responses was modeled as a function of their 30-day recall, the personal characteristic, and the interaction between the 30-day recall and the characteristic in separate general linear regression models, adjusted for sex.
Nine items representing 7 LUTS exhibited under- or overreporting (recall bias) for at least 25% of participants. Bias was associated with personal characteristics for six LUTS. Underreporting of incontinence was associated with older age, lower anxiety, and negative affect; overreporting of other LUTS was associated with, symptom bother, symptom variability, anxiety, and depression.
We identified under- or overreporting that was associated with personal characteristics for six common LUTS. Some cues (eg, less bother and lower anxiety) were related to recall bias in an unexpected direction. Thus, providers should exercise caution when making judgments about the accuracy of a patient\'s symptom recall based on patient demographic and psychosocial characteristics.
