Almost half (47%) of the sample met the criteria for one or more diagnoses of clinically elevated stress, anxiety or depression. There were significant associations between the psychosocial outcome variables; carer strain and depression had the strongest correlations with quality-of-life (r = -.63, p  less then  .001, for both). Participants also reported multiple unmet needs related to emotional and practical support. CONCLUSIONS This study contributes to the growing body of evidence on paediatric palliative care, specifically that parents caring for a child with a life-limiting condition report high levels of distress and burden, low quality-of-life and need more emotional and practical support targeted at their unmet needs. Paediatric palliative care services should routinely assess parent mental health and provide appropriate support.We present a case of hereditary thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura (hTTP) caused by a previously undescribed mutation in a 36-year-old woman who presented with seizures in the context of a possible infection. Her hematologic manifestations were mild, despite undetectable ADAMTS13 (A Distintegrin and Metalloproteinase with Thrombospondin Motifs 13) activity. Genetic analysis showed a homozygous variant in ADAMTS13 gene which was not previously reported but predicted to be associated with disease. She responded to plasma therapy. Her diagnosis subsequently led to the diagnosis of hTTP in her younger sibling who presented with unexplained strokes a few years earlier.Opioid use disorder (OUD) and alcohol use disorder (AUD) are two highly prevalent substance-related disorders worldwide. Co-use of the substances is also quite prevalent, yet there are no pharmacological treatment approaches specifically designed to treat co-morbid OUD and AUD. Here, the authors criti
