Article Synopsis
- The study aimed to assess how using reversible postpartum contraception impacts the likelihood of recurring pregnancy issues in subsequent pregnancies and whether this effect is connected to longer interpregnancy intervals (IPIs).
- Researchers analyzed data from Maine on women who had live births between 2007 and 2019, focusing on conditions like prenatal depression, hypertensive disorders, and gestational diabetes.
- Findings showed that while postpartum contraception use was linked to longer IPIs, it did not decrease the recurrence risk of the targeted pregnancy conditions, highlighting a gap in healthcare provision.
Objective: To estimate the rate of acute health care use (hospitalizations and emergency department [ED] visits) among postpartum persons by rurality of residence and pregnancy complications.
Data Sources And Study Setting: 2006-2021 data from the Maine Health Data Organization's All Payer Claims Data.
Study Design: We estimated the rates of hospitalizations and ED visits during the first 24 months postpartum, separately, overall and by four-level rurality of residence (urban, large rural, small rural, and isolated rural) and by pregnancy complications (prenatal depression, hypertensive disorders of pregnancy [HDP], and gestational diabetes mellitus [GDM]).
Purpose: Patients receiving haemodialysis (HD) display elevated circulating microparticle (MP) concentration, tissue factor (TF) expression and markers of systemic inflammation, though regular intradialytic cycling (IDC) may have a therapeutic effect. This study investigated the impact of regular, moderate-intensity IDC on circulating MPs and inflammatory markers in unit-based HD patients.
Methods: Patients were cluster-randomised to intervention (n = 20, age: 51.
Introduction: No formal cost-effectiveness analysis has been performed for programs of cycling exercise during dialysis (intradialytic cycling [IDC]). The objective of this analysis is to determine the effect of a 6-month program of IDC on health care costs.
Methods: This is a retrospective formal cost-effectiveness analysis of adult participants with end-stage kidney disease undertaking in-center maintenance hemodialysis enrolled in the CYCLE-HD trial.
Background: Higher produce consumption in childhood decreases risks of short- and long-term malnutrition, obesity, and disease. Children in early care programs, including family child care homes (FCCHs), receive 50-67% of daily nutrition while in care. Procuring nutritious foods requires grocer access, which is absent in food deserts (FDs).
