Abstract
Improving adherence to antiretroviral therapy (ART) is essential for limiting HIV disease progression among young sexual minority men living with HIV. Daily diaries allow for a detailed examination of how fluctuations in psychosocial factors are associated with adherence over time. Across three cities in the United States, this study collected 60 days of quantitative data from 44 young men (between 16 and 24 years of age) living with HIV who have sex with men. Lagged transition models explored the associations of mood, stress, social support, substance use, and condomless intercourse with daily ART adherence. Baseline levels of illicit substance use and condomless intercourse, and a higher proportion of days with stress or marijuana use, were associated with lower ART adherence. Lapses in adherence predicted non-adherence the following day. Findings suggest prospective data collection may identify different predictors of adherence compared to retrospective recall. Lapse-management strategies are needed to improve adherence following a missed dose.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Training healthcare providers in a variety of clinical settings to deliver pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) is a key component of the Ending the HIV Epidemic (EHE) initiative. Self-efficacy, the individual’s belief in their ability to carry out the steps of PrEP delivery, is a core part of provider training and necessary for successful PrEP implementation. We characterized self-efficacy among providers from family planning (FP) clinics that do not provide PrEP to inform provider training strategies.
Methods
We surveyed providers (any clinical staff who could screen, counsel, or prescribe PrEP) from FP clinics in 18 Southern states (Feb-June 2018, N=325 respondents from 224 clinics not providing PrEP) using contraception- and PrEP-specific self-efficacy questions (overall and grouped into PrEP delivery steps: screening, initiation, and follow-up). We compared self-efficacy scores (5-point Likert scale) by prescriber status, between PrEP delivery steps, and used linear mixed models to analyze provider-, clinic-, and county-level covariates associated with overall PrEP self-efficacy.
Results
Among 325 FP providers, self-efficacy scores were lowest in the PrEP initiation step, higher in follow-up, and highest in screening (p < 0.0001, Table). Mean overall PrEP self-efficacy scores were significantly higher among prescribers compared to non-prescribers (p < 0.0001). However, providers reported lowest self-efficacy regarding insurance navigation for PrEP with no significant difference by prescriber status. The mixed model demonstrated overall PrEP self-efficacy was positively associated with favorable PrEP attitudes among non-prescribers, PrEP knowledge among prescribers, and contraception self-efficacy in both groups, but was not associated with availability of insurance navigation on-site or other covariates (Figure).

Conclusion
FP providers reported low confidence in their ability to perform the steps that comprise PrEP initiation. Provider training focused on elements of PrEP initiation are critical to improve PrEP implementation and EHE initiatives. Alternatively, programs employing referral or telehealth models to support the PrEP initiation step can successfully bridge this gap.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To assess the development of a Positive Child Health Index (PCHI) based on 11 adverse outcomes and evaluate the association of PCHI with quality of life (QoL) scores in a preterm cohort. STUDY DESIGN A total of 889 children enrolled in the Extremely Low Gestational Age Newborn (ELGAN) study in 2002-2004 were followed up at 10 years of age. A parent/caregiver completed questionnaires for child QoL, asthma, visual or hearing impairment, gross motor function impairment, epilepsy, attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder, anxiety, and depression. The child was assessed for cognitive impairment, autism, and obesity. PCHI scores were computed and linear regression models were used to evaluate the relationship between QoL categories (psychosocial, physical, emotional, social, school, and total) and the PCHI (dichotomized and coded as a multilevel categorical predictor) and to assess sex differences. RESULTS Among ELGAN children, higher PCHI scores were associated with higher reported QoL scores for all QoL categories. Children with no disorders and a PCHI of 100% had Pediatric Quality of Life Inventory total scores that were 11 points higher than children with 1 or more adverse outcomes (PCHI of <100%). Boys had lower QoL scores for the total, psychosocial, social, and school categories. CONCLUSIONS Positive child health assessed using a quantitative PCHI was associated with QoL across the ELGAN cohort at school age. In the current study, the PCHI encompassed 11 outcomes assessed in ELGANs. Future research could include an enhanced panel of child health outcomes to support the use of PCHI as an indicator of positive child health.

Abstract
Genomic instability is a hallmark of breast cancer, contributes to tumor heterogeneity, and influences chemotherapy resistance. Although Gap 2 and mitotic checkpoints are thought to prevent genomic instability, the role of these checkpoints in breast cancer is poorly understood. Here, we assess the Gap 2 and mitotic checkpoint functions of 24 breast cancer and immortalized mammary epithelial cell lines representing four of the six intrinsic molecular subtypes of breast cancer. We found that patterns of cell cycle checkpoint deregulation were associated with the intrinsic molecular subtype of breast cancer cell lines. Specifically, the luminal B and basal-like cell lines harbored two molecularly distinct Gap 2/mitosis checkpoint defects (impairment of the decatenation Gap 2 checkpoint and the spindle assembly checkpoint, respectively). All subtypes of breast cancer cell lines examined displayed aberrant DNA synthesis/Gap 2/mitosis progression and the basal-like and claudin-low cell lines exhibited increased percentages of chromatid cohesion defects. Furthermore, a decatenation Gap 2 checkpoint gene expression signature identified in the cell line panel correlated with clinical outcomes in breast cancer patients, suggesting that breast tumors may also harbor defects in decatenation Gap 2 checkpoint function. Taken together, these data imply that pharmacological targeting of signaling pathways driving these phenotypes may lead to the development of novel personalized treatment strategies for the latter two subtypes which currently lack targeted therapeutic options because of their triple negative breast cancer status.

Abstract
Changes in cellular mechanical properties correlate with the progression of metastatic cancer along the epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT). Few high-throughput methodologies exist that measure cell compliance, which can be used to understand the impact of genetic alterations or to screen the efficacy of chemotherapeutic agents. We have developed a novel array high-throughput microscope (AHTM) system that combines the convenience of the standard 96-well plate with the ability to image cultured cells and membrane-bound microbeads in twelve independently-focusing channels simultaneously, visiting all wells in eight steps. We use the AHTM and passive bead rheology techniques to determine the relative compliance of human pancreatic ductal epithelial (HPDE) cells, h-TERT transformed HPDE cells (HPNE), and four gain-of-function constructs related to EMT. The AHTM found HPNE, H-ras, Myr-AKT, and Bcl2 transfected cells more compliant relative to controls, consistent with parallel tests using atomic force microscopy and invasion assays, proving the AHTM capable of screening for changes in mechanical phenotype.
