Advancing Maternal Health with Long‐Acting Therapeutics: Priorities, Efficacy and Safety Considerations, and Emerging Technologies

open access: yesClinical Pharmacology &Therapeutics, EarlyView.
Maternal health remains a critical global concern, particularly in underserved populations and in low‐ and middle‐income countries where access to safe and effective therapeutics is limited. Despite the use of medications by most women during pregnancy, the exclusion of pregnant and lactating women from clinical trials has resulted in significant data ...

Shared Versus Unique Features of Neural Activation During Cognitive Flexibility Across Restrictive Eating Disorder Presentations

open access: yesInternational Journal of Eating Disorders, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Restrictive eating disorders (EDs), including anorexia nervosa (AN) and atypical AN (Atyp‐AN), are often associated with cognitive rigidity that can impede treatment. The dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (dlPFC) plays a central role in cognitive control, but it remains unclear whether its activation during cognitive flexibility will ...
