Introduction: Perinatal substance use continues to rise across the United States presenting unique challenges to providing antepartum care. Polysubstance use, limited and late engagement in health care, co-occurring mood disorders, and several social barriers are well documented. This review seeks to summarize these barriers and present novel approaches to caring for this high-risk population.

Background: Evaluation approaches such as ripple effects mapping (REM) and realist evaluation have emerged as popular methodologies to evidence impact, and the processes of change within public health as part of whole systems approaches. Despite the various examples of their implementation across different evaluation settings, there has been little or no evidence of how they might be effective when combined.
Methods: With REM's potential to pragmatically illustrate impact, and realist evaluation's strength to identify how and why impacts emerge, this paper develops a rationale and process for their amalgamation.
Background: Athletes display a high prevalence of undesired sleep characteristics that may affect both performance and wellbeing.
Objectives: This scoping review aimed to identify and map the existing evidence of behavioral sleep interventions and their effects on sleep outcomes in athletes, and retrospectively code the behavior change techniques (BCTs) implemented using the Behavior Change Technique Taxonomy (BCTTv1).
Methods: Conducted following the JBI methodology for scoping reviews, four online databases were used to identify prospective interventions with at least one behavioral component in competitive athletes, and reporting a sleep outcome pre- and post-intervention.
