The basic income for care leavers in Wales pilot evaluation: Protocol of a quasi-experimental evaluation.

Background: This study will evaluate the Basic Income for Care Leavers in Wales pilot (BIP), which is the most generous basic income scheme in the world. A cohort of care-experienced young people who become aged 18 during a 12-month enrolment period (July 2022-June 2023) are receiving £1,600 (before tax) per month for two years, and the Welsh Government intends this to have a range of benefits. This evaluation will examine the impact of BIP, the implementation of the pilot and how it is experienced, and its value for money.

Social Vulnerability Index and Dental Caries in Children: An Exploratory Study.

Objective: This retrospective cross-sectional study evaluated the association between caries outcomes in a pediatric population visiting a dental clinic and the social vulnerability index, an area-based measure capturing 4 main social determinants of health: socioeconomic status, household composition/disability, minority status/language, and housing/transportation.

Methods: The Centers for Disease Control Social Vulnerability Index (SVI) and electronic dental record data of children (0 to 18 y) reporting a caries diagnosis at the Children's Hospital Colorado in 2020 were extracted for 9,201 children. Logistic regressions were used to test the association between SVI and the presence or absence of dental caries, adjusting for age, sex, ethnicity, and race.

A telehealth yoga program for older adults in rural Wisconsin: intervention development and process outcomes.

Although yoga improves physical functioning, balance, and quality of life in older adults, rural residents are less likely to participate due to issues related to availability, access, and beliefs regarding yoga practice. To address these barriers, we worked with community partners to adapt a yoga program designed for older adults for telehealth delivery. In this report, intervention development and process outcomes are presented.
