TL;DR: The longitudinal effects of the ‘Teaching Kids to Cope with Anger’ (TKC-A) program on self-reported anger in rural youth are reported and a significant difference was reported between the control and intervention group.
Abstract: The purpose of this paper is to report the longitudinal effects of the ‘Teaching Kids to Cope with Anger’ (TKC-A) program on self-reported anger in rural youth. Through a randomized controlled trial, 179 youths of 14–18 years of age, from three rural high schools, were randomized into a control (n = 86) and an intervention group (n = 93) for eight TKC-A weekly sessions. These students completed the STAXI-2 anger instrument questionnaires at baseline, post-intervention, 6 months, and at 1 year. T-test statistics were used to analyze and compare the control and intervention groups. Through analysis of the Anger Index sub-scale of the STAXI-2 at 1 year post-intervention, a significant difference was reported between the control and intervention group. Participants reported that the TKC-A intervention was helpful in coping with emotional, behavioral, and social aspects of anger. Future research may utilize the TKC-A with youth who have anger management problems. Psychiatric-mental health nurses can screen...

TL;DR: The current status of OCT-guided treatment of calcified coronary artery disease and new treatment modalities provide multiple options for approaching interventions involving calcified lesions are reviewed.
Abstract: Our objective is to review the current status of OCT-guided treatment of calcified coronary artery disease. New treatment modalities provide multiple options for approaching interventions involving calcified lesions. Coronary artery calcification is associated with stent underexpansion and worse procedural outcomes. Optimizing stent expansion is essential to reduce restenosis and the need for revascularization. Optical coherence tomography (OCT) allows for accurate diagnosis and detailed characterization of calcified lesions. The features of coronary artery calcification are determinant of the optimal lesion preparation and treatment strategy. We recommend an OCT-guided treatment approach for calcified coronary lesions.
