Objective:
Children with pediatric brain tumors (PBT) are at increased risk of psychosocial challenges (e.g., emotional distress, social difficulties), which in turn can result in functional impairment, or problems engaging appropriately across settings. These concerns have been shown to be especially pronounced in patients with lower socioeconomic status (SES), which tends to be overrepresented among ethnic minorities, such as Latino populations. On the other hand, resilience (the ability to utilize resources to alleviate stress and overcome adversity) can act as a protective factor against functional impairment. While resilience has been found to be lower among Latino survivors of pediatric cancer, little is known about the potential role of resilience in mitigating functional impairment among Latino patients with PBT. The authors hypothesized poorer resilience and increased functional impairment among Latino patients with PBT compared to normative expectations, in an attempt to explore need for additional support within this population.
Participants and Methods:42 Latino patients with PBT ages 2-20 (x=11.08 years, SD=5.24) completed neuropsychological evaluation between 2018 and 2022. The sample was split relatively equally in terms of sex (47.6% male, 52.4% female), tumor location (45.2% infratentorial, 54.8% supratentorial), and household language (47.6% predominantly English, 52.4% predominantly Spanish). Outcome variables included Resiliency and Functional Impairment content scales from the Behavior Assessment Scale for Children – Third Edition: Parent Rating Scales (BASC-3: PRS). Standardized T-scores (x=50; SD=10) were derived using age-appropriate normative data, with higher T-scores indicating better resiliency, yet poorer functional impairment. Median household income for specific neighborhoods was used as a proxy for SES.
Results:The sample as a whole did not deviate from age expectations in terms of resiliency [t(41)=-.469, p=.642] or functional impairment [t(38)=.118, p=.907]. However, when separated by household language, participants from English speaking households demonstrated lower resiliency and increased functional impairment as compared to both normative expectations [t(19)=-2.748, p=.006; t(18)=1.882, p=.038, respectively] and participants from Spanish speaking households [t(40)=-3.327, p=.002; t(37)=2.717, p=.010, respectively]. In contrast, participants from Spanish speaking households performed similarly to same-aged peers in terms of both resiliency [t(21)=1.931, p=.067] and functional impairment [t(19)=-1.969, p=.064]. Furthermore, household language predicted both resiliency [F(2, 39)=8.639, p=.0008] and functional impairment [F(2, 36)=6.203, p=.005] above and beyond SES, explaining an additional 29.4% (p=.0002) and 24.3% (p=.002) of the variation in these variables, respectively.
Conclusions:Latino patients with PBT from Spanish speaking households had better reported resiliency and lower functional impairment than their counterparts from English speaking households. Given the subjective nature of parent reported outcomes and the importance of appropriately supporting patients and families from underserved populations, the roles of culturally-ingrained protective factors and cultural/linguistic differences in perceiving or articulating distress need further exploration. Future research, including comparison of parent report with objective measurement of impairment, is needed to better understand relationships between home language and these important variables. Additionally, examination of diagnostic and treatment-related factors will be beneficial to determine the best approaches to interventions and resources within this population.

Introduction
Caregivers are essential in providing valuable patient information to medical providers. With limited available research investigating caregiver burden among those caring for patients receiving ECT and the new life challenges presented by the COVID-19 pandemic, it is more important now than ever to take a closer look at the caregivers’ experiences.
MethodsEmory’s Wesley Woods Geriatric Hospital is one of the busiest ECT services in the country with around 2000 treatments completed every year. In this chart review, researchers are looking at caregivers’ responses to the Zarit Caregiver Burden Interview. This assessment includes 22 questions assessing the caregivers’ current emotional state in order to examine the impact of the patient’s condition on
caregiver wellbeing. The score ranges from 0 (no burden) to 88 (severe burden). Other objective assessments completed with ECT patients are BDI (Beck Depression Inventory), BDI Suicide, Sheehan Disability Scale, ECCA (Electrocompulsive Cognitive Assessment), GAD-7 (Generalized Anxiety Disorder Scale), and CGI (Clinical Global Impression). The purpose of this chart review is to investigate whether the higher severity of depression in patients correlates with higher levels of caregiver burden and whether the pandemic contributed to caregiver burden.
ResultsThe Zarit Caregiver Burden Interview has been administered on twelve caregivers (n=12; 6 male and 6 female), all providing care for patients currently undergoing ECT for depressive symptoms. Out of the twelve caregivers, 66.6% reported little caregiver burden, 16.6% reported mild to moderate burden, and 16.6% reported moderate to severe burden. Additional patients are being interviewed in the ECT suite and further data collected will be presented at the 2021 IPA Virtual International Congress.
ConclusionAs the world adjusts to life in the COVID-19 era, caregivers face new challenges in providing care for vulnerable, at-risk populations. Caregivers of patients receiving ECT facilitate frequent COVID testing and limited visitation policies while continuing to provide care and emotional support to patients with advanced age and a mental illness. Administrating the Zarit Caregiver Burden Interview can help providers look at the degree of burden in caregivers of patients receiving ECT for depressive symptoms and provide better caregiving strategies during and post pandemic.

ABSTRACT IMPACT: We aim to understand how LTCCs impact cerebellar function. OBJECTIVES/GOALS: L-type calcium channels (LTCCs) are important in activity-dependent neurite outgrowth, which comprises neurite initiation and elongation. We used cerebellar granule neurons (CGNs) to differentiate between LTCC effects on neurite initiation vs elongation. We also tested cerebellar function in mice lacking specific LTCCs with behavioral assays. METHODS/STUDY POPULATION: CGNs were cultured from 129SvEv mouse pups at P4-P6. Potassum chloride (50mM) was used to stimulate neuronal cultures for 24 hours. Isradipine (20nM) was added to culture medium to inhibit all LTCCs for 1 hour. For Cav1.2 deletion, we crossed Cav1.2 conditional knockout mice (Cav1.2-cKO) to Syn-Cre mice (for deletion in most neurons) or Atoh1-Cre mice (for deletion in CGNs). The Cav1.2-cKO line was maintained on a 129SvEv background. For constitutive Cav1.3 deletion, mice were maintained on a C57BL/6NTac. Behavioral tasks included open field, rotarod, and Erasmus Ladder. Data were analyzed with sexes combined and separated to assess for sex as a biological variable. Studies were analyzed by one-way ANOVA, two-way ANOVA, or generalized linear mixed model, where appropriate. RESULTS/ANTICIPATED RESULTS: CGNs exhibited an increase in neurite initiation but not elongation when stimulated with potassium chloride, consistent with previous reports of activity-dependent neurite outgrowth in this cell type. LTCC inhibition with isradipine blunted KCl-induced neurite initiation. We observed no change in the length of either primary or secondary neurites with isradipine treatment with or without KCl stimulation. In our behavioral experiments, we observed no deficits in open field, rotarod, or Erasmus Ladder when Cav1.2 was deleted in most neurons (driven by Syn-Cre expression) or in cerebellar granule neurons (driven by Atoh1-Cre expression). In contrast, loss of Cav1.3 was associated with impaired motor learning in the rotarod task without evidence of ataxia on Erasmus Ladder. DISCUSSION/SIGNIFICANCE OF FINDINGS: We show a specific role for LTCCs in activity-dependent CGN neurite initiation. While loss of Cav1.2 does not affect motor learning, loss of Cav1.3 does impair motor learning. Our results help expand our understanding of LTCC function in cerebellar neurodevelopment and function.

Objective:
We sought to determine the frequency with which hospice and palliative social workers encounter patients, family caregivers, and other clients at risk of suicide, and to discover the extent to which hospice and palliative social workers feel prepared to address issues related to suicide in their professional practice.
Method:We conducted a cross-sectional survey of hospice and palliative social workers, recruiting a convenience sample of volunteer respondents through advertisements at professional conferences and listservs, and via social media accounts associated with national organizations, state hospice and palliative care associations, and individual healthcare professionals.
Results:Most respondents reported having worked with patients, family caregivers, or other clients who had exhibited warning signs of suicide during the previous year. Fewer respondents indicated that they had worked with patients and family members who had attempted or died by suicide. While the majority of respondents believed they possessed sufficient knowledge and skills to intervene effectively with individuals at risk of suicide, they indicated that additional education on this topic would be valuable for their professional practice.
Significance of results:These study results suggest that suicide-related competencies are important in the practice of hospice and palliative social work. Future education and training efforts should include skill development in addition to knowledge building.

Objective:
Although hospice agencies are required to provide informal caregivers (family or friends of the patient) with formal bereavement support when their loved one passes, most bereavement interventions lack standardization and remain untested. We employed the Dual Processing Model of Bereavement as a theoretical framework for assessing the potential of a secret Facebook group for bereaved hospice caregivers.
Method:A mixed-methods approach was utilized to analyze online communication (posts and comments) in the secret Facebook group, and self-reported outcome measures on depression and anxiety were compared pre- and post-intervention.
Results:Sixteen caregivers participated in the secret Facebook group over a period of nine months. The majority of online talk was oriented to restoration, revealing abrupt and anticipated triggers that evoked feelings of loss. Caregivers also shared loss orientation through storytelling, sharing and giving advice, and encouraging others to manage the challenges of coping. Caregiver anxiety and depression were lower after the intervention.
Significance of Results:This pilot study provides insight into the use of a secret Facebook group to facilitate bereavement support to caregivers. Findings highlight the promise of Facebook for hospice bereavement support. Providers and researchers are encouraged to explore the positive outcomes associated with bereavement support.
