Observations of substance use treatment engagement during the period of community re-entry following residential treatment.

Background: The period of community re-entry following residential substance use treatment is associated with elevated risk for return to substance use. Although continuity of care is best practice, many individuals do not engage in follow-up treatment, struggle to engage in follow-up treatment, or continue to use substances while participating in follow-up treatment. There is a need to both characterize treatment engagement during community re-entry following residential substance use treatment as well as understand how treatment impacts substance use during this high-risk period.

Shift in Prehospital Mode of Transportation for Trauma Patients During the COVID-19 Pandemic.

Introduction: Since the start of the COVID-19 pandemic, we experienced alterations to modes of transportation among trauma patients suffering penetrating injuries. Historically, a small percentage of our penetrating trauma patients use private means of prehospital transportation. Our hypothesis was that the use of private transportation among trauma patients increased during the COVID-19 pandemic and was associated with better outcomes.

Racial Disparities Among Trauma Patients During the COVID-19 Pandemic.

Introduction: Given the disparate effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on people of color, we hypothesized that patients of color experienced a disproportionate increase in trauma during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Materials And Methods: We compared trauma patients arriving in the 3 y before our statewide stay-at-home mandate on March 20, 2020 (PRE) to those arriving in the year afterward (POST). In addition to race/ethnicity, we assessed patient demographics and other clinical variables.

Relationship Between Actual and Perceived Locomotor and Ball Skills Competence Among Children: A Person-Centered Approach.

This study examined whether profiles varying in actual and perceived locomotor and ball skill competencies would be identified and whether these profiles would differ in relation to children's characteristics. Participants were 127 (70 boys; 57 girls) French-speaking Canadian children (5-11 years). Actual and perceived motor competencies were, respectively, measured using the Test of Gross Motor Development - Third version and the pictorial scale of Perceived Movement Skill Competence.
