Introduction: Throughout the COVID-19 pandemic, there was an urgent need for the rapid and equitable translation of knowledge and effective treatments to reach vulnerable populations in response to the ever-shifting pandemic environment. The approval of neutralizing monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) for treatment of outpatient COVID-19 resulted in a need to rapidly design dissemination strategies to increase awareness and equitable access for community members and healthcare providers.
Materials And Methods: We used the Fit to Context (F2C) Framework for Designing for Dissemination and Sustainability to (a) design products such as messages and materials, and (b) disseminate the products.

Background: To further reduce maternal and neonatal mortality, it is essential for mothers and newborns to fully utilize all essential services within the continuum of maternal and newborn care. However, research on maternal and child health services in India has not sufficiently examined geographical disparities in the full utilization of these services and the factors influencing the full utilization, particularly in rural areas. This study aims to address this critical gap.

Introduction: Prolonged gaps in care of >12-months are frequent among people with cystic fibrosis (pwCF) and are associated with reduced lung function. Comprehensive analysis of patient-level predictors of visit frequency is needed to optimize protocols for stable pwCF and identify subgroups at high risk of gaps and poor outcomes, promoting equitable treatment for all pwCF.
Objective: To determine sociodemographic and disease-related factors predictive of visit frequency in pwCF and to assess how these effects vary across the lifespan.
