Exploring Implementation of Cantonese Radio Broadcasting as a Mental Health Promotion Initiative for Linguistically Isolated Immigrants.

Digital-first public health efforts often miss linguistically isolated immigrant communities because of structural barriers and stigma. Ethnic legacy media can reach these groups, but keeping programs funded and operational over the long term is frequently difficult. This Practice Note examines a Cantonese-language radio health program in "Los Angeles County" that ran 128 live broadcasts across a full 12-year Chinese zodiac cycle. Instead of a top-down clinical model, the show endured by acting as an informal community navigation hub. We examine two recurring administrative frictions: anonymous off-air calls about urgent economic needs (e.g., hotel job referrals) and on-air audience corrections of mispronounced medical terms. We argue these interactions should be seen not as disruptions but as measurable indicators of structural trust that sustain programs. We offer practical guidance for recruiting undergraduates to expand reach via ethnic print newspapers, using peer-recovery milestones to amplify impact. The note concludes with a pragmatic blueprint for health educators to manage professional boundaries, preserve commercial-clinical separation, and uphold cultural safety in isolated communities.

Promoters and Barriers of Vaccine Hesitancy.

This systematic review explores the psychological antecedents of Vaccine Hesitancy, a significant determinant of vaccination behavior. Following PRISMA guidelines, an extensive search was conducted starting from 1673 papers and resulting in 48 publications from various databases. The review identifies psychological factors, specifically cognitive, personality, experiential, and social factors contributing to hesitancy. Cognitive factors include health literacy, conspiracy beliefs, trust, and perceived risk. Personality traits such as extraversion, openness, and psychological capital impact hesitancy, while psychopathy increases it. Personal experiences, like perceived stress and racial discrimination, indirectly affect hesitancy. Social factors, including social relationships and norms, play a significant role in reducing hesitancy. Tailored interventions addressing these factors can enhance vaccine acceptance.

Unanticipated Effects of Parental Social Media Use: Guidance for Clinicians.

"Sharenting," the practice of parents posting photographs, videos, and information about their children on social media, has an ever-growing presence in modern society. However, researchers and the public are now recognizing the potential consequences of sharing, including creation of permanent digital footprints, strained familial relationships, and threats to children's safety. Despite this emerging evidence, no U.S. clinical or legal guidelines exist for parents on safe sharing. Visits with behavioral health providers and family physicians can serve as key points for intervention. This column aims to provide clinicians with a better understanding of sharenting and its potential effects on patients and families, guidance on discussing safe online sharing, and a tool for parents and other caregivers to use when deciding whether to post.

Exploring Primary Care Clinicians' Sexual and Reproductive Health Care Delivery to Male Adolescents and Young Adults.

INTRODUCTION: Despite existing guidance for adolescent sexual and reproductive health (SRH) care, male adolescent SRH care receipt is inadequate. Limited research has explored factors affecting clinicians' provision of SRH care to male adolescents, specifically. METHODS: This mixed-method study with 12 primary care clinicians included a brief survey assessing care delivery practices and confidence, followed by an in-depth interview to explore factors affecting SRH care delivery. RESULTS: Clinicians reported high confidence delivering male adolescent SRH care (mean ± SD: 8.31 ± 1.71 out of 10), but delivered only about half the recommended services (20 items out of 38). Factors influencing care delivery included gaps in education/training, assumptions about male SRH care, and behavioral constraints at various levels. DISCUSSION: Findings underscore the need to strengthen male adolescent SRH care by enhancing provider training, increasing clinic-level supports, and addressing structural barriers. CONCLUSIONS: Findings can inform strategies to improve the quality and comprehensiveness of SRH services for male adolescents in primary care settings.

Interest holder-driven research priorities in sexual and reproductive health for migrant and refugee adolescents and young adults in Australia.

OBJECTIVE: To identify and prioritise sexual and reproductive health research priorities for migrant and refugee adolescents and young adults in Australia using a priority setting partnership approach. METHODS: A James Lind Alliance priority setting partnership was conducted with 92 interest holders: 31 youth from migrant and refugee backgrounds and 61 professionals (healthcare providers, researchers, policymakers and community leaders), recruited online and in-person. The priority setting partnership process included a rapid evidence scan, an online uncertainty survey, evidence verification, interim prioritisation and a final consensus workshop. RESULTS: Eighty-three research uncertainties yielded 11 final priorities across four sexual and reproductive health domains: sexual and reproductive health literacy, sexual violence prevention, accessible services and maternal health. A striking divergence emerged between youth and professional priorities only 3 achieved combined high-priority consensus. Youth prioritised a broader range of topics, including abortion access (rated high by youth but low by professionals), while professionals prioritised fewer areas. Two priorities achieved consensus: community-based maternal health support and barriers to reporting gender-based violence. CONCLUSION: This is the first priority setting partnership to identify sexual and reproductive health research priorities for migrant and refugee youth in Australia and to uniquely highlight substantial misalignment between youth and professional priorities. IMPLICATIONS FOR PUBLIC HEALTH: These identified priorities provide a foundation for targeted research, culturally responsive policy and more equitable sexual and reproductive health service provision for migrant and refugee adolescents and young adults.

Access to maternity services for women asylum seekers and refugees: A transnational document analysis of international, European regional, and United Kingdom governance.

Women asylum seekers and refugees face persistent barriers to maternity care (antenatal, intrapartum and postnatal care) across high-income countries, yet the upstream governance shaping access remains under-examined. Although legally distinct, both groups share protection-seeking experiences and are addressed jointly in governance documents. This study examined and synthesised how international (macro), European regional (meso), and United Kingdom (UK, micro) governance documents frame and operationalise maternity service access. Sixty-four documents were analysed using the READ framework. Inductive analysis of macro and meso documents identified six access dimensions: universal coverage; cultural and linguistic adaptation; rights-based approaches; multi-agency collaboration; data, monitoring and accountability; and quality of care. These dimensions structured assessment of UK governance, with jurisdictions rated strong, moderate or weak. Alignment was fragmented: Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland exempted asylum seekers from charging, whereas England retained charging provisions. Multi-agency collaboration was consistently articulated, yet none of the 35 UK government documents focused on maternity access for this population, and none required outcome monitoring disaggregated by asylum or refugee status. UK governance appears coordinated in form but fragmented in substance. UK-wide minimum standards and routine recording of these data, with safeguards against immigration-related use, could strengthen coherence and accountability and improve visibility of inequities.

Air Pollution and Heat Impacts on Respiratory Morbidity and Mortality Outcomes in Africa: A Systematic Review Towards a Meta-analysis.

PURPOSE OF THE REVIEW: This review synthesised evidence on associations between air pollution and respiratory morbidity in Africa. Following PRISMA guidelines, we systematically searched PubMed, ScienceDirect and Elicit for case-control studies published between 2015 and 2025. RECENT FINDINGS: Thirteen studies from ten African countries reported pollutant levels far exceeding WHO guidelines. Indoor PM₂.₅ in biomass-using homes ranged from 96 to 177 µg/m³, and ambient PM₂.₅ reached 259 µg/m³. Nitrogen oxides were consistently associated with reduced lung function in children, while household air pollution increased risks of under-five mortality and low birthweight. Associations with acute respiratory infections varied across settings. Vulnerability was greatest among young children, those with airway hyperresponsiveness, and households with poor ventilation. Only three studies included temperature, and none examined heat-respiratory interactions. Across African case-control studies, particulate matter and household air pollution remain consistently linked to adverse respiratory outcomes, highlighting urgent needs for cleaner fuels, improved ventilation, and stronger evidence on combined pollution and heat exposures.

A reanalysis of the Hitachi cohort study evaluating the effectiveness of low-dose CT screening for lung cancer.

The effectiveness of low-dose thoracic computed tomography (CT) screening for lung cancer for non-smokers or light smokers has been unclear. The results of the Hitachi cohort study performed by the conventional multivariable analysis suggested the reduction of lung cancer mortality by thoracic CT screening, but also revealed the lower all-cause mortality in the CT group, which indicated the existence of self-selection bias. Because the background of the subjects in the CT screening group and that in the X-ray screening group were very different, it is critical to adjust appropriately the confounding factors. In this brief report, we describe a re-evaluation of the results of the Hitachi Cohort Study performed by using more flexible methods, propensity score matching and inverse probability weighting.

Aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage care in a middle-income public healthcare system: A real-world neurocritical care cohort.

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Although aneurysm treatment capacity has expanded worldwide, outcomes after aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH) remain strongly influenced by neurocritical care (NCC) delivery, referral pathways, and access to specialized treatment. Contemporary data describing real-world aSAH care in resource-limited healthcare systems remain scarce. We aimed to characterize treatment patterns, NCC delivery, complications, and outcomes in a large Brazilian public referral center. METHODS: This retrospective cohort study included consecutive adults with confirmed aSAH admitted between June 2018 and March 2022 to a high-volume Brazilian tertiary referral center. Only patients admitted within five days of symptom onset were included. Demographic, clinical, radiological, treatment, complication, and outcome data were extracted from institutional records. Primary outcomes were in-hospital mortality and 3-month functional outcome assessed by the modified Rankin Scale (mRS). RESULTS: Seventy-four patients were included. Disease severity was high, with 45% presenting WFNS grades 4-5, 73% modified Fisher grade 4 hemorrhage, and 64% hydrocephalus. Endovascular treatment was performed in 73% of cases, and median time from admission to aneurysm treatment was 1 day. Despite early treatment capability, only 28% of patients were admitted to an ICU within 48 h, while 38% never received ICU care. Delayed cerebral ischemia occurred in 43%, radiologic vasospasm in 58%, ventriculitis in 22%, and infectious complications in 57%. External ventricular drainage was required in 42%, and vasoactive drugs were used in 85%. In-hospital mortality was 42%, and 66% had unfavorable 3-month outcomes (mRS 4-6). CONCLUSIONS: This real-world cohort highlights the substantial neurocritical care burden of aSAH in a middle-income public healthcare system. Despite timely access to definitive aneurysm treatment, patients experienced frequent neurological and systemic complications, emphasizing that contemporary aSAH care extends well beyond aneurysm occlusion.

Differences in Radiological Risk Perceptions Following Online and In-Person Workshops.

Nuclear energy is widely regarded as a critical part of the pathway toward a secure, low-carbon electricity grid, yet long-term management of used nuclear fuel remains a persistent challenge. Although technically viable options for interim and consolidated storage exist, public concern and community opposition - rooted in historical distrust and risk perception - continue to complicate siting decisions. In response, recent federal efforts have emphasized collaboration-based approaches and community engagement, though empirical evidence on the effectiveness of different engagement strategies remains limited. This study examines how the structure and delivery of community engagement influence changes in public attitudes toward hosting interim used nuclear fuel storage facilities. Using survey data from 13 educational workshops around the United States, we evaluate: (1) the inclusion of trust-building content prior to technical content, and (2) engagement format, comparing online and in-person workshops. Analyses focus on participant changes in perceptions of safety, risk, and support for hosting, using the Wilcoxon rank-sum test and other non-parametric hypothesis tests on surveys conducted before and after workshops. Results indicate that workshop participation is associated with some measurable attitude changes, with significant (p < 0.05) differences in response variability for some questions across workshop formats. In particular, when comparing nuclear energy to other clean energy sources, in-person workshop participants are substantially more likely to gain a more favorable opinion of nuclear energy than online participants. These findings contribute empirical evidence on how trust-building and delivery mode shape outcomes in public engagement on complex and contested energy policy issues such as storage of used nuclear fuel.

Adolescents' Growing Sensitivity to Psychosocial Stressors: Evidence From Two Decades of Health Behaviour in School-aged Children (HBSC) Data in the Nordic Countries.

PURPOSE: We tested a perception-based explanation for rising psychosomatic complaints among adolescents in the Nordic countries. Specifically, we examined whether adolescents have become more sensitive to psychosocial stressors, reflected in stronger associations between stressors and psychosomatic complaints in 2022 than in 2002. METHODS: Data were drawn from the 2002 to 2022 waves of the Health Behaviour in School-aged Children survey among 15-year-olds in five Nordic countries (N = 7,263 in 2002 and 6,739 in 2022). Psychosomatic complaints were examined in relation to stressors in the following three domains: interpersonal relationships, school-related strain, and body- and activity-related factors. Moderated regression analyses tested whether associations between stressors and complaints differed between survey years. Sex and perceived family finances were included as covariates. RESULTS: Four of five psychosocial stressors showed stronger associations with psychosomatic complaints in 2022 than in 2002. Perceived poor family finances, although less prevalent in 2022, were more strongly related to complaints. Girls consistently reported higher levels of psychosomatic complaints, and the association between school pressure and complaints was stronger among girls. DISCUSSION: Although several psychosocial stressors declined in prevalence, their associations with psychosomatic complaints strengthened over time. These findings suggest that rising complaints may reflect changes in how psychosocial stressors are linked to adolescents' psychosomatic symptoms, rather than increases in exposure to those stressors. This shift highlights the importance of considering how adolescents interpret and respond to everyday stress when addressing population trends in mental health.

Costs of surgeries in low- and middle-income countries: a systematic literature review.

BACKGROUND: Surgical care is essential for achieving global health equity, yet low- and middle-income countries (LMICs) face major gaps in access and planning, partly due to limited evidence on the costs and resource requirements of surgical interventions. Understanding these costs is vital for designing efficient and equitable health systems. METHODS: We conducted a systematic literature review (covering MEDLINE, EMBASE, Global Health, EconLit and grey literature) to identify studies reporting the costs of surgeries in LMICs from January 2000 to June 2023. Minor and major surgical procedures were considered, focusing on therapeutic procedures (excluding diagnostic interventions). Studies that clearly identified, quantified and costed hospital resources and services deployed in the provision of surgical care, and included at least two of the surgical production factors (ie, consumables, diagnostics, personnel, infrastructure and overhead) in the costing were included. Costs were standardised to 2023 International dollars (I$) for comparability. RESULTS: A total of 74 studies from 29 countries met the inclusion criteria, with 210 cost estimates across 65 procedure groups. Costs varied widely: from I$1.54 for a caesarean section in Tanzania to I$618 098 for paediatric cataract surgery in Zambia. Full costing studies reported higher estimates than partial costing studies. Most studies (60%) originated from upper-middle-income countries, with limited data (10%) from low-income settings. CONCLUSION: This review provides a reference list of surgical procedure costs across LMICs, highlighting considerable cost variation by procedure, specialty and country. The findings underscore the need for better-quality, standardised cost data-especially from low-income countries-to inform national surgical plans, universal health coverage benefit packages and reimbursement policies.

Simultaneous Administration of Human Papillomavirus (HPV) Vaccine With Other Recommended Vaccines Among Adolescents Aged 13-17 years, National Immunization Survey-Teen (NIS-Teen), United States, 2023.

PURPOSE: To investigate the percent of adolescents who receive human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccine with one or more other vaccines recommended for adolescents in a single medical visit. METHODS: Data from the 2023 National Immunization Survey-Teen were analyzed. Timing of receipt of HPV vaccine, tetanus, diphtheria, and acellular pertussis vaccine (Tdap), quadrivalent meningococcal conjugate vaccine (MenACWY), and influenza vaccine was assessed using provider-reported vaccination histories. RESULTS: In 2023, among adolescents aged 13-17 years, 69.5% received HPV vaccine with one or more other vaccines recommended for adolescents in a single medical visit. In addition, 47.8% received specifically HPV vaccine, Tdap, and MenACWY together in a single medical visit. DISCUSSION: The HPV vaccine is commonly given with other vaccines recommended for adolescents in a single medical visit. These findings demonstrate variation in simultaneous vaccination patterns, suggesting that flexibility in the recommended adolescent vaccination schedule allows for different approaches to vaccination across clinical settings and family preferences while maintaining adherence to the recommended schedule.

Storm and Stress 2.0? A Dual-Factor, Person-Centered Analysis of Adolescent Well-being Across Two Year 7 Cohorts and Gender.

PURPOSE: Concerns about the mental health and well-being of younger generations is a recurring theme across countries and time. Adolescence is debated as a period of volatility ("storm and stress") or growth. Recent trends have reignited worries about youth mental health and well-being, particularly for females, and revived a deficit-based view of adolescence. To advance understanding, this study adopts a dual-factor approach that incorporates both negative and positive well-being domains. Mental health trends were compared across two grade-matched Australian adolescent cohorts assessed 5 years apart. METHODS: Data were drawn from cross-sectional cohorts of year 7 students (12-13 years) in one Australian jurisdiction: 2,085 in 2018 and 2,378 in 2023. Positive affect, happiness, resilience, depression, and anxiety were assessed using latent profile analysis to identify mental health profiles, which were then compared between cohorts and gender. RESULTS: Four profiles were identified: complete mental health, symptomatic but positive, resilient but disaffected, and troubled. Approximately 80% of students were classified in profiles reflecting some positive mental health. Between 2018 and 2023, the proportion with complete mental health declined by 7.93%, while those categorized as troubled increased by 4.76%. Declines were most pronounced among female students. DISCUSSION: Findings highlight both resilience and vulnerability in adolescent mental health. While most students continue to show positive well-being, the decline among females signals an urgent need for gender-sensitive approaches. At the same time, the results add nuance to accounts of a youth mental health 'crisis' to some degree, by highlighting positive domains of well-being which are often overlooked.

Parents' Awareness of Their Adolescents' Sexual Behaviors and Experiences: A Concordance Analysis.

PURPOSE: Adolescence is a developmental period during which sexual exploration is normative. Parental awareness of adolescents' sexual behaviors can be protective during this stage; however, research suggests both parents and adolescents tend to avoid open conversations about these sensitive issues. This study aimed to examine concordance between parent proxy-reports and adolescent self-reports across three domains of adolescents' sexual behaviors and experiences. METHODS: Data were collected from a national sample of 522 parent-adolescent dyads (aged 15-17 years) from the AmeriSpeak panel (data collected May-September 2022). Prevalence-adjusted bias-adjusted kappa (PABAK) statistics were calculated to evaluate agreement. RESULTS: Findings revealed weak-to-moderate concordance regarding adolescents sending and receiving sexual photos (PABAKs = 0.54-0.79), whereas stronger concordance was observed for experiences related to nonconsensual sharing of sexual photos (PABAKs = 0.92-0.94), with high agreement largely driven by low reported prevalence of these experiences. Strong concordance regarding whether adolescents had ever had sex (PABAK = 0.80) was largely driven by both parents and adolescents reporting the adolescent had not had sex. Concordance regarding sexually transmitted infection and pregnancy prevention methods varied, ranging from weak to strong agreement across specific methods (or lack thereof; PABAKs = -0.07-0.79). DISCUSSION: Results highlight significant discrepancies in parents' knowledge about their adolescents' sexual behaviors and experiences. Interventions aimed at enhancing trust and open dialogue between parents and adolescents about sexuality-related topics, as well as ensuring adolescents have a variety of trusted sources to consult for sexual information, can help adolescents make informed sexual health decisions.

Orofacial Cleft Disparities in American Indian and Alaska Native Populations: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis.

ObjectiveTo evaluate the prevalence, access to care, and health outcomes of orofacial clefts (OFCs) among American Indian and Alaska Native (AI/AN) populations through a systematic review and meta-analysis.DesignSystematic review and meta-analysis performed in accordance with PRISMA 2020 guidelines and registered with PROSPERO (CRD420251035364).SettingUS-based population registries, hospital databases, and institutional or community-level retrospective studies involving AI/AN populations.Patients and ParticipantsAI/AN individuals with OFCs compared with non-Hispanic White patients.InterventionsPrimary cleft lip and palate repair, secondary cleft-related procedures, and multidisciplinary cleft care.Main Outcome Measure(s)Prevalence of OFCs, timing of cleft surgery, discharge disposition, access to specialists, and qualitative determinants of disparities.ResultsEighteen studies including more than 1985 AI/AN patients were identified. Meta-analysis of 5 studies estimated a pooled OFC prevalence of 15 per 10 000 live births (95% confidence interval: 5-49), with substantial heterogeneity (I2 = 99.8%). Individual studies reported significantly higher OFC prevalence in AI/AN populations compared to non-Hispanic Whites (odds ratio range: 1.44-2.68). Geographic maldistribution of craniofacial-trained surgeons, increased odds of nonhome discharge, and delayed cleft palate repair were consistently observed barriers. Qualitative analyses highlighted structural inequities, perceived racism, and lack of culturally responsive care as major contributors to disparities.ConclusionsAI/AN populations face a disproportionately high burden of OFCs alongside structural barriers to timely, culturally competent care. Addressing these disparities requires community-engaged, multidisciplinary interventions that improve geographic access and integrate culturally responsive approaches to care.

Psychiatric Diagnoses and Psychotropic Medications Among Military-Affiliated Adolescents and Young Adults With Polycystic Ovary Syndrome.

PURPOSE: To study rates of psychiatric diagnoses and psychotropic medication prescription among U.S. military-affiliated adolescents and young adults (AYA) with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). METHODS: This retrospective matched cohort study included U.S. military-affiliated AYA (aged 15-21 years) enrolled in TRICARE Prime for at least 6 months during the surveillance period (January 2016 to October 2023). Military-affiliated AYA were grouped into three categories: individuals diagnosed with PCOS (N = 6,911), age-matched individuals with no diagnosed PCOS symptoms (N = 35,814), and individuals with diagnosed symptoms suggestive of PCOS (N = 2,136). The presence of a psychiatric diagnoses and prescriptions for psychotropic medications were obtained via the International Classification of Diseases, 10th Revision, Clinical Modification codes and National Drug codes, respectively. RESULTS: AYA with diagnosed PCOS had higher odds of having a psychiatric diagnosis and being prescribed a psychotropic medication compared to an age-matched comparison group (psychiatric diagnosis odds ratio [OR] = 2.48 [2.35-2.62], medication OR = 2.14 [2.03-2.25]) and individuals with symptoms suggestive of PCOS (psychiatric diagnosis OR = 1.11 [1.003-1.23], medication OR = 1.16 [1.05-1.28]). DISCUSSION: The odds of psychiatric comorbidities and psychotropic medication prescription were more than twice as high as among U.S. military-affiliated AYA with PCOS. More research is needed to determine whether health-care utilization and military-related factors impact mental health outcomes among AYA with PCOS. Additionally, tailored, multidisciplinary mental health services for AYA with PCOS are needed.

Association of Age at Menarche With Depression in Adulthood in NHANES 2015-2023: A Cross-Sectional Study.

PURPOSE: The primary objective of this study is to elucidate the role of age at menarche in depression in adulthood and explore the implications of this association. METHODS: We conducted a study involving 9,826 adult female participants from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) between 2015 and August 2023. Age at menarche was categorized as early (<12 years), normal (12-14 years), or late (≥15 years). Depression was assessed using the 9-item Patient Health Questionnaire (PHQ-9) and clinical diagnoses. Logistic regression and restricted cubic spline analyses were performed to address the study objectives. In addition, subgroup analyses were conducted based on demographic, lifestyle, and clinical characteristics. RESULTS: The depression group had a significantly higher proportion of young adults (aged 18-30 years) compared to the nondepression group (26.46% vs. 20.52%, p < .001). Conversely, the nondepression group included a greater proportion of older adults (over 60 years) than the depression group (29.53% vs. 23.98%, p < .001). After comprehensive adjustments, early menarche was significantly associated with increased depression risk (adjusted odds ratio [aOR] = 1.224, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.003-1.493, p = .047). Restricted cubic spline analyses revealed an L-shaped nonlinear pattern (p for nonlinearity = 0.006), with optimal age at menarche around 12 years. Subgroup analyses confirmed consistent associations without significant interactions. DISCUSSION: Early menarche is linked to increased depression risk, especially among women aged 18-30 years. Menarche at 12 years may serve as a key point for early intervention to prevent depression in young women.
