At the intersection of intersectional identity and microaggressions: An examination of the experiences and identity of sexual and gender diverse BIPOC individuals.

Objectives: Sexual and gender diverse (SGD) Black, Indigenous, and people of color (BIPOC) live at the intersection of identities that produce idiosyncratic experiences of marginalization. Existing theories often rely on single-axis (e.g.

Spontaneous Hemorrhage of Thoracic Cavernous Malformation Leading to Bilateral Lower Extremity Paralysis.

Cavernous malformations (CMs) are abnormal clusters of thin-walled blood vessels located in the central nervous system. An 87-year-old male with a history of heart failure with reduced ejection fraction, coronary artery disease, and atrial fibrillation on rivaroxaban was admitted for acute onset, bilateral lower extremity weakness. He was found to have hemorrhagic transformation of a pre-existing spinal cord cavernous malformation located at the level of T9 of the thoracic column worsened by his use of anticoagulation.

An intersectional approach to understanding LGBTQ+ people of color's access to LGBTQ+ community resilience.

Resiliency research suggests that connection to LGBTQ + communities helps mitigate the negative impacts of oppression (i.e., community resilience).

Chronic disease self-management programs for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people: Factors influencing participation in an urban setting.

Issue Addressed: Evidence suggests that participation in a Chronic Disease Self-Management (CDSM) program improves the health of clients. Many factors are known to influence participation in these programs for the broader Australian population. However, less is known about why Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islanders choose to participate.

Minimally invasive perinatal and pediatric autopsy with laparoscopically assisted tissue sampling: feasibility and experience of the MinImAL procedure.

Objective: Less invasive autopsy techniques in cases of fetal or infant death have good acceptability among parents, but the published sampling adequacy in needle biopsy studies is generally poor. Minimally Invasive Autopsy with Laparoscopically assisted sampling (MinImAL) has the potential to increase the diagnostic yield of less invasive autopsy by improving the quality and quantity of tissue samples obtained, whilst permitting visualization, extraction and examination of internal organs through a small incision. The aim of this study was to present the findings of our experience with the MinImAL procedure in cases of fetal, neonatal and pediatric death.
