Race and Ethnicity and Clinician Linguistic Expressions of Doubt in Hospital Admission Notes
Authors: Courtney R. Lee, Jaya Aysola, Xinwei Chen, Eden Addisu, Ari Klein, Davy Weissenbacher, Graciela Gonzalez-Hernandez, Gary E. Weissman
Journal: JAMA Network Open (2024)

Importance Stigmatizing language in electronic health records (EHRs) can generate or reinforce negative stereotypes about patients from minoritized groups and erode their trust and experience. However, less is known about the use of such language to cast doubt on patient clinical history in hospital settings. Objective To compare the prevalence of language expressing doubt about patient clinical history (eg, experiences and symptoms) in hospital admission notes by patient race and ethnicity. Design, Setting, and Participants In this cohort study, natural language processing tools were applied to analyze 54 936 admission notes from 1249 clinicians about patients aged 18 years or older at admission and hospitalized at an academic health system in the Northeast US between January 1, 2018, and February 28, 2023. Data were analyzed from September 1, 2022, to July 31, 2023. Exposure Patient race and ethnicity (non-Hispanic Black, non-Hispanic White, and racial and ethnic minoritized groups excluding non-Hispanic Black [includes multiple racial and ethnic groups, such as Hispanic and Asian]) as recorded in the EHR based on self-report or registrar determination. Main Outcome and Measure Binary indicator for at least 1 term casting doubt on patient clinical history was defined using epistemic stance, a linguistic construct expressing a writer’s degree of certainty in information. Terms were manually validated via iterative review of notes by the study team. Results Among 56 325 admission notes (mean [SD] age of patients, 55.9 [19.0] years; 30 913 notes among female patients [54.9%]; 25 649 notes among non-Hispanic Black patients [45.5%], 26 442 notes among non-Hispanic White patients [46.9%], and 2985 notes among members of racial and ethnic minoritized groups excluding non-Hispanic Black patients [5.3%]), we analyzed 54 936 admission notes that had no missing data. Among all analyzed admission notes, 39 023 notes (71.0%) contained doubt language. Notes written about non-Hispanic Black patients had increased odds of containing at least 1 word or phrase of doubt (adjusted odds ratio, 1.21; 95% CI, 1.14-1.28; P &amp;amp;lt; .001) compared with notes among non-Hispanic White patients. Compared with notes among non-Hispanic White patients, notes written about members of racial and ethnic minoritized groups excluding non-Hispanic Black patients had similar odds of containing at least 1 term of doubt. Conclusion and Relevance In this study, language casting doubt on patient clinical history was more likely to be found in notes of non-Hispanic Black patients. These results suggest that with the implementation of policies allowing patients full access to their health records, examining clinical documentation standards may be associated with improved patient experience.
Free Summer Programming and Body Mass Index Among Schoolchildren From Low-Income Households
Authors: Michael W. Beets, Sarah Burkart, Christopher Pfledderer, Elizabeth Adams, R. Glenn Weaver, Bridget Armstrong, Keith Brazendale, Xuanxuan Zhu, Brian Chen, Alexander McLain
Journal: JAMA Pediatrics (2024)

Importance Children experience accelerated gains in body mass index (BMI) during the summer months when school is not in session. Children from low-income households are most susceptible. Accelerated BMI gain in summer may be due to the removal of the health-promoting structure provided by schools. During summer, a common form of health-promoting structure is summer day camps (SDCs). Summer day camps are predominately fee for service, which creates a financial barrier for children from low-income households. One solution to mitigate accelerated BMI gain is providing free access to an existing SDC. Objective To investigate whether providing free access to an existing community SDC can mitigate accelerated BMI z score (zBMI) gain in elementary school–age children. Design, Setting, and Participants This randomized clinical trial was conducted during the summers of 2021, 2022, and 2023 in the southeastern United States. Participants were children (kindergarten through fourth grade) from predominantly low-income households who were randomized to attend an SDC operated by a parks and recreation commission or continue summer as usual (control). Intervention Free SDC every weekday (Monday through Friday) for 8 to 10 weeks. Main Outcomes and Measures The primary outcome was between-group differences in change of zBMI measured before school ended (May) and on return to school from summer (late August). Secondary analyses examined the dose response of zBMI change with parent-reported child attendance at SDCs during the summer for all children (intervention and control). Results A total of 422 children (mean [SD] age, 8.2 [1.5] years; 202 [48%] female, 220 [52%] male, 292 [69%] at or below 200% federal poverty level, 127 [30%] with food insecurity) were randomized to 1 of 2 conditions: summer as usual (control, n = 199) or free SDC (n = 223). Intent-to-treat analysis indicated mean (SE) change in zBMI at the end of the summer was 0.046 (0.027) for the control and −0.048 (0.025) for the intervention group, representing a significant between-group difference of −0.094 (95% CI, −0.166 to −0.022). Dose-response analyses indicated that every 1 day per week increase in attending an SDC resulted in a −0.034 to −0.018 zBMI reduction, which translates to a gain of 0.046 to 0.080 zBMI for children never attending summer programming vs −0.09 to −0.04 zBMI reduction for children attending summer programming every weekday. Conclusions and Relevance Providing children free access to existing community summer programming can have a meaningful effect on children’s zBMI gain during the summer. Future studies should replicate these findings across different regions and identify the optimal dose of programming to mitigate unhealthy zBMI gains.

An emerging multi-omic understanding of the genetics of opioid addiction
Authors: Eric O Johnson, Heidi S Fisher, Kyle A Sullivan, Olivia Corradin, Sandra Sanchez-Roige, Nathan C Gaddis, Yasmine N Sami, Alice Townsend, Erica Teixeira Prates, Mirko Pavicic, Peter Kruse, Elissa J Chesler, Abraham A Palmer, Vanessa Troiani, Jason A Bubier, Daniel A Jacobson, Brion S Maher
Journal: Journal of Clinical Investigation (2024)

Opioid misuse, addiction, and associated overdose deaths remain global public health crises. Despite the tremendous need for pharmacological treatments, current options are limited in number, use, and effectiveness. Fundamental leaps forward in our understanding of the biology driving opioid addiction are needed to guide development of more effective medication-assisted therapies. This Review focuses on the omics-identified biological features associated with opioid addiction. Recent GWAS have begun to identify robust genetic associations, including variants in OPRM1, FURIN, and the gene cluster SCAI/PPP6C/RABEPK. An increasing number of omics studies of postmortem human brain tissue examining biological features (e.g., histone modification and gene expression) across different brain regions have identified broad gene dysregulation associated with overdose death among opioid misusers. Drawn together by meta-analysis and multi-omic systems biology, and informed by model organism studies, key biological pathways enriched for opioid addiction-associated genes are emerging, which include specific receptors (e.g., GABAB receptors, GPCR, and Trk) linked to signaling pathways (e.g., Trk, ERK/MAPK, orexin) that are associated with synaptic plasticity and neuronal signaling. Studies leveraging the agnostic discovery power of omics and placing it within the context of functional neurobiology will propel us toward much-needed, field-changing breakthroughs, including identification of actionable targets for drug development to treat this devastating brain disease.
Distinguishing between help and harm: Helper T cell subsets and immune-related adverse events
Authors: Alexandra M Haugh, Adil I Daud
Journal: Journal of Clinical Investigation (2024)

The precise conditions by which cytokines drive cancer is relevant to improving immune checkpoint inhibition (ICI) responses while decreasing toxicity. In this issue of the JCI, Kao et al. investigated T helper cell pathways in patients with solid tumors receiving ICI. The authors evaluated T cell populations, cytokine signatures, immune related adverse events (irAEs), and survival outcomes. Patients with a history of autoimmune disorders were more likely to develop irAEs. Notably, blood samples from patients on treatment showed that elevations in IL-5, IL-6, IL-17f, and TNF-α were associated with an increased risk for grade 2 or higher irAEs. Moreover, IL-6 was associated with decreased objective response rate and worse cancer-specific and all-cause mortality. These findings may help guide decisions for optimizing ICI efficacy while minimizing toxicity and suggest that IL-6 blockade may improve response and decrease toxicity in solid tumors.
PRMT5: splicing up tolerance
Authors: Rathan Kumar, Parvathi Ranganathan
Journal: Journal of Clinical Investigation (2024)

Expression of tissue-restricted antigens (TRAs) within the thymus is critical for the establishment of self-tolerance; however, exact mechanisms regulating the expression of TRAs has proven more complex than previously appreciated. In this issue of the JCI, Muro et al. identify a central role for protein arginine methyltransferase 5 (PRMT5) in posttranscriptional regulation of TRAs and thereby central tolerance. Using conditional KO mice, the authors showed that thymic deficiency of Prmt5 predisposed mice to developing autoimmune diseases while enhancing antitumor efficacy. These studies provide insight into the role of PRMT5 in shaping the T cell repertoire with implications for the development of therapies.
Epigenetic therapies targeting histone lysine methylation: complex mechanisms and clinical challenges
Authors: Sarah Gold, Ali Shilatifard
Journal: Journal of Clinical Investigation (2024)

As epigenetic therapies continue to gain ground as potential treatment strategies for cancer and other diseases, compounds that target histone lysine methylation and the enzyme complexes represent a major frontier for therapeutic development. Clinically viable therapies targeting the activities of histone lysine methyltransferases (HKMT) and demethylases (HKDMs) have only recently begun to emerge following FDA approval of the EZH2 inhibitor tazemetostat in 2020 and remain limited to compounds targeting the well-studied SET domain-containing HKMTs and their opposing HKDMs. These include the H3K27 methyltransferases EZH2/EZH1, the singular H3K79 methyltransferase DOT1L, and the H3K4 methyltransferase MLL1/COMPASS as well as H3K9 and H3K36 methyltransferases. They additionally include the H3K4/9-preferential demethylase LSD1 and the H3K4-, H3K27-, and H3K36-preferential KDM5, KDM6, and KDM2 demethylase subfamilies, respectively. This Review discusses the results of recent clinical and preclinical studies relevant to all of these existing and potential therapies. It provides an update on advancements in therapeutic development, as well as more basic molecular understanding, within the past 5 years approximately. It also offers a perspective on histone lysine methylation that departs from the long-predominant "histone code" metaphor, emphasizing complex-disrupting inhibitors and proximity-based approaches rather than catalytic domain inhibitors in the outlook for future therapeutic development.
Considerations for the application of polygenic scores to clinical care of individuals with substance use disorders
Authors: Rachel L. Kember, Christal N. Davis, Kyra L. Feuer, Henry R. Kranzler
Journal: Journal of Clinical Investigation (2024)

Substance use disorders (SUDs) are highly prevalent and associated with excess morbidity, mortality, and economic costs. Thus, there is considerable interest in the early identification of individuals who may be more susceptible to developing SUDs and in improving personalized treatment decisions for those who have SUDs. SUDs are known to be influenced by both genetic and environmental factors. Polygenic scores (PGSs) provide a single measure of genetic liability that could be used as a biomarker in predicting disease development, progression, and treatment response. Although PGSs are rapidly being integrated into clinical practice, there is little information to guide clinicians in their responsible use and interpretation. In this Review, we discuss the potential benefits and pitfalls of the use of PGSs in the clinical care of SUDs, highlighting current research. We also provide suggestions for important considerations prior to implementing the clinical use of PGSs and recommend future directions for research.
Cannabis use disorder: from neurobiology to treatment
Authors: Bernard Le Foll, Victor M Tang, Sergio Rueda, Leanne V Trick, Isabelle Boileau
Journal: Journal of Clinical Investigation (2024)

Cannabis has been legalized for medical and recreational purposes in multiple countries. A large number of people are using cannabis and some will develop cannabis use disorder (CUD). There is a growing recognition that CUD requires specific interventions. This Review will cover this topic from a variety of perspectives, with a particular emphasis on neurobiological findings and innovative treatment approaches that are being pursued. We will first describe the epidemiology and burden of disease of CUD, including risk factors associated with CUD (both in terms of general risk and genetic risk variants). Neurobiological alterations identified in brain imaging studies will be presented. Several psychosocial interventions that are useful for the management of CUD, including motivational enhancement therapy, behavioral and cognitive therapy, and contingency management, will be covered. Although no pharmacological interventions are yet approved for CUD, we present the most promising pharmacological interventions being tested.
Transcript splicing optimizes the thymic self-antigen repertoire to suppress autoimmunity
Authors: Ryunosuke Muro, Takeshi Nitta, Sachiko Nitta, Masayuki Tsukasaki, Tatsuo Asano, Kenta Nakano, Tadashi Okamura, Tomoki Nakashima, Kazuo Okamoto, Hiroshi Takayanagi
Journal: Journal of Clinical Investigation (2024)

Immunological self-tolerance is established in the thymus by the expression of virtually all self-antigens, including tissue-restricted antigens (TRAs) and cell-type-restricted antigens (CRAs). Despite a wealth of knowledge about the transcriptional regulation of TRA genes, posttranscriptional regulation remains poorly understood. Here, we show that protein arginine methylation plays an essential role in central immune tolerance by maximizing the self-antigen repertoire in medullary thymic epithelial cells (mTECs). Protein arginine methyltransferase-5 (Prmt5) was required for pre-mRNA splicing of certain key genes in tolerance induction, including Aire as well as various genes encoding TRAs. Mice lacking Prmt5 specifically in thymic epithelial cells exhibited an altered thymic T cell selection, leading to the breakdown of immune tolerance accompanied by both autoimmune responses and enhanced antitumor immunity. Thus, arginine methylation and transcript splicing are essential for establishing immune tolerance and may serve as a therapeutic target in autoimmune diseases as well as cancer immunotherapy.
