Between 2021-2023, enrolled patients were randomized to cognitive behavioral therapy/pain coping skills training (PCST) versus usual care (319 vs 324). The median number of PCST sessions led by a trained coach was 12. #NephJC

Last year I gave a talk at Notre Dame's Science Communication Symposium about why we fall for misinformation, how to have productive dialogue, and how to effectively communicate science. It's now online!

Krauss was going to be the big speaker at that PCST conference here until he suddenly wasn’t. Turns out that in 2012 he was after a job here. And I am guessing I know which program/dept too.

Video sessions were accomplished in 62% of PCST training. Additionally, approximately 63% of training sessions were done during hemodialysis treatment. #NephJC

“£90bn of assets are looked after by a PCST”

Anybody remember the early ‘90s when new pensions legislation said it was so important to have member nominated trustees? #nostalgia
Professional trusteeship has become the governance 'default'

There was no evidence of an effect modification from demographic characteristics or baseline opioid use. Changes in mean score of survey testing, PCST versus usual care 👇#NephJC

The hypothesis: CBT can reduce pain & opioid use in dialysis patients.
💊 Patients in Pain Coping Skills Training (PCST) followed a structured, interactive program.
Have you tried CBT in ESRD? 💬 #NephJC

科学コミュニケーションの国際学会、PCSTの主要メンバーに、日本の科学コミュニケーションの取り組みを紹介するイベントに登壇してきました。
 企画者の皆様、本当にお疲れさまでした&ありがとうございました!
 PCSTのメンバーと接する機会が持てたのも良かったですが、日本の科学コミュニケーション関係者がここまで一堂に会したのは「初」だと思います。その後の懇親会も含め、めちゃくちゃ刺激的でした。

📉 Pain relief or just stats? PCST patients had greater pain disruption vs usual care! BPI interference score: -0.49 (95% CI, -0.85 to -0.12; P=0.009).
🎯 Clinically meaningful or just a small win? #NephJC

We are grateful to our colleagues at the COALESCE project for inviting us for a spotlight on their booth at PCST Conference to discuss the connections between science communication and responsible research assessment! 🙏 PCST 2025 will be held in Aberdeen, Scotland from 27 – 29 May - see you there?

📄 Patients in usual care got educational materials on alternatives to opioids—so did the PCST group! 💊🚫 How do you limit opioids in ESRD patients? ⬇️ #NephJC

PCST pts had 45-50 min sessions/wk led by a coach via video or phone. There were also 12 wks of daily automated interactive voice response (IVR) sessions. IVR calls required keypad input to monitor patients with questions & skills refreshers. #NephJC

A larger proportion of patients in the PCST group (50.9% versus 36.6%) had a decrease in BPI interference scoring of greater than 1-point at week 12 (OR 1.79, 95% CI 1.28-2.49) and at week 24 (OR 1.59, 95% CI 1.13-2.24), but not at week 36. #NephJC

Patients were randomized 1:1 to pain coping skills training (PCST) or usual care, with stratification for opioid use. Baseline surveys were distributed before randomization. #NephJC
