Introduction
Dementia has a significant psychological and emotional impact on families, especially for caregivers of people living with dementia. In this perspective, the World Health Organization has developed iSupport for Dementia, an online training and skills program to prevent and/or reduce mental health problems associated with the provision of care and improve the quality of life of caregivers. It is being translated and adapted in different countries and as of August 2022, 31 adaptations using 27 different languages were in progress. However, the availability of the program should only be carried out after evaluating its effects on caregivers’ mental health outcomes (such as burden, depressive and anxious symptoms, quality of life, among others).
ObjectivesTo analyze randomized clinical trial protocols to assess the effects of the iSupport program in different countries.
MethodsThis is a data survey carried out in October 2022 on clinical trial registry platforms Clinical Trials, The Brazilian Registry of Clinical Trials, Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials, Netherlands Trial Register and Australian New Zealand Clinical Trials Registry by two independent researchers. Descriptive analyzis were performed for sample size, primary outcomes, secondary outcomes and intervention design.
ResultsSeven clinical trial registries were identified, conducted in Australia/China, Brazil, Great Britain, the Netherlands, India, Japan and Portugal, published in English, from 2018 to 2022. The sample size ranged from 184 to 390 participants. Regarding the primary outcomes linked to the effect of using iSupport, five countries will analyze burden, anxiety and depression. Only in Australia/China and the Netherlands, the primary outcome will be quality of life and stress, respectively. Secondary outcomes vary between studies, with measures of quality of life (n=6), self-efficacy (n=4), program usability (n=4), cognition and problematic behaviors (n=3), attitudes (n=3), quality of support (n=3), positive aspects of care (n=2), knowledge, competence, resilience and informal costs of care (n=1). Most studies will carry out assessments at baseline, 3 and 6 months after the intervention, with the exception of Japan that will perform at baseline and at 1 and 3 months after the intervention and 6 months.
ConclusionsAnalysis of the effectiveness of iSupport is one of the World Health Organization guidelines for countries that are culturally adapting this program. Brazil is the only country in Latin America with a clinical trial registration so far. Burden, anxiety and depression are outcomes considered by most countries. The results could provide evidence to strengthen and expand the possibilities for collaboration between researchers, as internet-based interventions have shown promising results on the mental health and well-being.

Introduction
Clinical High Risk of Psychosis (CHR-P) condition and the clinical validity of at-risk criteria are still little studied in child and adolescent population.
ObjectivesThis study aimed to discover neurocognitive profiles of adolescents with CHR-P, compared with adolescents with psychosis and youth with other psychiatric symptoms that do not meet CHR-P criteria.
MethodsWe divided 116 adolescents (12-18 years old) in three groups according to the semi-structured interview Comprehensive Assessment of At-Risk Mental States (CAARMS): psychosis, attenuated psychosis syndrome (APS), non-APS. Moreover, we administered Wechsler scales to assess the IQ, Wisconsin Card Sorting Test to assess abstract reasoning and flexibility, Rey-Osterrieth complex figure to assess planning and attention, and Trail Making Test to assess psychomotor speed, visual attention and task switching. We administered BVN 12-18 subtests to assess lexical denomination, verbal and nonverbal working memory, selective auditory, visual attention, phonemic and categorial fluency, reasoning and problem solving.
ResultsNineteen adolescents met criteria for psychosis, 47 for APS, and 50 did not meet criteria neither for psychosis nor for APS. APS group performed better than psychosis group and similar to non-APS group in processing speed, planning, visual attention, and categorial fluency. APS did not show a significant difference from the other groups in working memory and backward digit span, showing an intermediate profile; non-APS and psychosis groups still differed significantly in these functions.
ConclusionsIdentifying typical neurocognitive profiles leads to more accurate diagnoses and early intervention that can lead to better patient outcomes.

The new mineral species arsiccioite, AgHg2TlAs2S6, was discovered in the baryte-pyrite-iron oxide ore deposit exploited at the Monte Arsiccio mine, near Sant’Anna di Stazzema (Apuan Alps, Tuscany, Italy). It occurs as anhedral grains scattered in microcrystalline baryte, associated with cinnabar, laffittite, protochabournéite, pyrite, realgar, Hg-bearing sphalerite and stibnite. Arsiccioite is red, with a metallic to sub-metallic lustre. Minimum and maximum reflectance data for COM wavelengths in air are [λ (nm): R (%)]: 471.1: 29.0/29.4; 548.3: 27.6/28.3; 586.6: 26.1/26.5; 652.3: 24.2/24.6. Electron microprobe analyses give (wt.%): Cu 0.78(6), Ag 8.68(21), Zn 0.47(27), Fe 0.04(1), Hg 35.36(87), Cd 0.20(5), Tl 18.79(33), As 10.77(19), Sb 4.75(10), S 18.08(21), Se 0.07(5), total 97.99(44). On the basis of ΣMe = 6 a.p.f.u., the chemical formula is Ag0.87(2)Cu0.13(1)Zn0.08(4)Fe0.01(1)Hg1.91(5)Cd0.02(1)Tl1.00(2) (As1.56(2)Sb0.42(1))S1.98S6.12(6)Se0.01(1). Arsiccioite is tetragonal, I2m, with a 10.1386(6), c 11.3441(5) Å, V 1166.1(2) Å3, Z = 4. The main diffraction lines of the powder diagram are [d(in Å), visually estimated intensity, hkl]: 4.195, m, 211; 3.542, m, 103; 3.025, vs, 222; 2.636, m, 114; 2.518, s, 400 and 303. The crystal structure of arsiccioite has been refined by single-crystal X-ray data to a final R1 = 0.030, on the basis of 893 observed reflections. It shows a three dimensional framework of (Hg,Ag)- centred tetrahedra (1 M1 + 2 M2), with channels parallel to [001] hosting TlS6 and (As,Sb)S3 disymmetric polyhedra. Arsiccioite is derived from its isotype routhierite M1CuM2Hg2TlAs2S6 through the double heterovalent substitution M1Cu+ + M2Hg2+ → M1Hg2+ + M2Ag+. This substitution obeys a steric constraint, with Ag+, the largest cation relative to Hg2+ and Cu+, entering the largest M2 site. The ideal crystal chemical formula of arsiccioite is M1HgM2(Hg0.5Ag0.5)2TlAs2S6. The crystal chemistry of the routhierite isotypic series is discussed. Finally, the distribution of Hg ore minerals in the Apuan Alps is reviewed.

The paper is concerned with the asymptotic behaviour of the solutions to a nonlocal evolution equation which arises in models of phase separation. As in the Allen–Cahn equations, stationary spatially nonhomogeneous solutions exist, which represent the interface profile between stable phases. Local stability of these interface profiles is proved.
