Article Synopsis
- Several US states, including Michigan, have made it harder to obtain nonmedical exemptions for school vaccine mandates, aiming to encourage vaccination among parents.
- A study conducted with Michigan public-school employees revealed that while they have good knowledge of vaccines and immunization policies, they are unsure about their role in promoting vaccinations and tend to believe that others should handle this responsibility.
- Some staff showed low confidence in vaccines, which affected their willingness to engage in immunization governance, highlighting the need for better support and understanding of staff roles as vaccine mandates evolve.
Objective: The aim of the study was to better address sociodemographic-related health disparities. This study examined which sociodemographic variables most strongly correlate with self-reported health in patients with chronic musculoskeletal pain.
Design: This single-center, cross-sectional study examined adult patients, followed by a physiatrist for chronic (≥4 yrs) musculoskeletal pain.
Background: Historically, marginalized patients were prescribed less opioid medication than affluent, white patients. However, because of persistent differential access to nonopioid pain treatments, this direction of disparity in opioid prescribing may have reversed.
Objective: To compare social disadvantage and health in patients with chronic pain who were managed with versus without chronic opioid therapy.
Gpr126/Adgrg6, an adhesion family G protein-coupled receptor (aGPCR), is required for the development of myelinating Schwann cells in the peripheral nervous system. Myelin supports and insulates vertebrate axons to permit rapid signal propagation throughout the nervous system. In mammals and zebrafish, mutations in Gpr126 arrest Schwann cells at early developmental stages.
