"I find value in myself": Queer Asian American men's self-love and resistance in the face of White supremacy.

Queer (i.e., gay, bisexual, or another sexual minority identity) Asian American men experience unique challenges and strengths related to their social identities at the intersection of race and sexual orientation.

"Live your life cuz everybody's terminal": Describing emotions and coping behaviors of rural advanced cancer patients.

Purpose: Culturally competent health care has led to increasing interest in how patients' identities influence the management of their health. The ways rural patients with advanced cancer process emotions and cope with their disease may be influenced by their rural context. The aims for this study were to (1) describe the emotions rural cancer patients experience, (2) describe how rural cancer patients manage their emotions within their rural context, and (3) interlace the themes related to coping with emotions.

State population indices predict Asian American and Pacific Islander successful substance use treatment completion: An exploratory observational study.

Cultural capital is a known factor supporting success in substance use disorder (SUD) treatment. We investigated Asian American and Pacific Islander (AAPI) State population metrics in relation to SUD treatment completion for US clients from 2006-2017 ( = 5,404,374). Metrics that may signify greater available cultural capital were State AAPI Percentage, State AAPI Percent Change, and State AAPI Population.

Racial trauma, microaggressions, and becoming racially innocuous: The role of acculturation and White supremacist ideology.

Acculturation theories often describe how individuals in the United States adopt and incorporate dominant cultural values, beliefs, and behaviors such as individualism and self-reliance. Theorists tend to perceive dominant cultural values as "accessible to everyone," even though some dominant cultural values, such as preserving White racial status, are reserved for White people. In this article, the authors posit that White supremacist ideology is suffused within dominant cultural values, connecting the array of cultural values into a coherent whole and bearing with it an explicit status for White people and people of color.

Admitted to treatment without diagnosis: The status of known diagnoses in US addictions treatment centres.

Background: Diagnostic and treatment gaps exist for those with substance use disorders (SUD). SUD diagnostics in treatment have been critically under-investigated. We investigated known diagnoses in US addiction treatment centres receiving state or federal funding.

Asian American and Pacific Islander substance use treatment completion.

Mental health professionals and administrators work to improve substance use treatment for racially and ethnically diverse populations. However, a national comparison study of Asian Americans and Pacific Islanders (AAPIs) and non-AAPIs substance use outpatient treatment completion has received little attention. The present study examined treatment completion by comparing AAPI clients to White and Latinx clients, and identified demographic and treatment-related moderating factors associated with treatment completion using discharge data from the Treatment Episode Data Sets-Discharge (TEDS-D).

Engaging Stakeholders in the Development of an eHealth Intervention for Cancer Symptom Management for Rural Residents.

Background: Late-stage cancer diagnoses disproportionately occur in rural residents, frequently resulting in increased need for symptom management support with minimal access to these services. Oncology Associated Symptoms and Individualized Strategies (OASIS) is an eHealth symptom self-management intervention that was developed to provide cancer symptom self-management support and address this disparity.

Purpose: To engage stakeholders about the symptom management needs and concerns of patients with advanced cancer living in rural areas.

Asian American and Pacific Islander substance use treatment admission trends.

Background: A national analysis of Asian Americans and Pacific Islanders (AAPI) substance use treatment admissions has yet to be studied. We sought to explore admission trends for AAPI, demographic and treatment variable change, and individual state admission change over time.

Methods: We used retrospective time-series logistic regression treating year as a predictor of yearly treatment admission trends, between-state test for heterogeneity of treatment effects among states' AAPI admissions, and percent-changes of AAPI demographic and treatment characteristics.
