Cognitive therapy for PTSD following multiple-trauma exposure in children and adolescents: a case series.

Background: Cognitive therapy for PTSD (CT-PTSD) is an efficacious treatment for children and adolescents with post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) following single incident trauma, but there is a lack of evidence relating to this approach for youth with PTSD following exposure to multiple traumatic experiences.

Aims: To assess the safety, acceptability and feasibility of CT-PTSD for youth following multiple trauma, and obtain a preliminary estimate of its pre-post effect size.

Method: Nine children and adolescents (aged 8-17 years) with multiple-trauma PTSD were recruited to a case series of CT-PTSD.

Is Racism a Barrier to HIV Care Continuum Engagement among Black People in the US?: A Scoping Review to Assess the State of the Science and Inform a Research Agenda.

People living with HIV (PLWH) can achieve VS through timely HIV care continuum (HCC) engagement (ie, diagnosis, linkage to HIV care, retention in care and adherence to prescribed treatment regimens). Black populations have poorer VS, suboptimal HCC engagement and higher levels of racism-related mistrust. This paper assessed the state of the evidence linking sub-optimal HCC engagement to racism among US Black populations.

Effect of Ketorolac Administration on the Rate of Nonunion of Operatively Treated Pediatric Long-Bone Fractures: A Matched Cohort Analysis.

Background: Nonunion is a rare yet serious complication in pediatric fracture healing that can lead to patient morbidity and economic burden. The administration of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) has been associated with an increased risk of fracture nonunion in adults, but data are lacking in the pediatric population. This study examines the relationship between postoperative ketorolac administration and nonunion in operatively managed pediatric long-bone fractures.
