To Address Women's Health Inequity, It Must First Be Measured.

Research and data collection related to what is historically known as "women's health" is consistently underfunded and marginalizes the health risks and experiences of women of color and transgender people. In the wake of the pandemic, the United States has an opportunity to redesign and reimagine a modern public health data infrastructure that centers equity and elevates the health and well-being of under-represented communities, including the full spectrum of gender identities. This piece offers a blueprint for transformational change in how the United States collects, interprets, and shares critical data to deliver greater health justice for all.

The value of advocacy in obstetrics and maternal-fetal medicine.

Purpose Of Review: To show that advocacy on behalf of an individual or organization has improved the practice of obstetrics and maternal-fetal medicine.

Recent Findings: Advocacy by an individual or a large group aims to influence public policy and resource allocation decisions within political, economic, and social systems and institutions. For obstetrician-gynecologists and maternal-fetal medicine physicians, there is a health policy medical practice intersection that may be often overlooked.

Ten Years of TAKE 10!(®): Integrating physical activity with academic concepts in elementary school classrooms.

Objective: Current literature supports the link between physical activity (PA) or fitness and a child's ability to achieve academically; however, little structured activity time is incorporated into elementary school classrooms. This paper explores the impact of a classroom-based PA program, TAKE 10!, and health-academic integration through existing state and federal policy and programming.

Methods: Evidence from journal articles, published abstracts, and reports were examined to summarize the impact of TAKE 10! on student health and other outcomes.
