Methods: We present a descriptive analysis and safety signal assessment of adverse events following immunization (AEFI) associated with RZV between September 2020 and December 2023. The descriptive data collected includes demographic characteristics and the classification of characteristics of AEFI cases, while vaccine safety signal assessment was evaluated using the reporting odds ratio (ROR).
BMC Palliat Care
January 2025
Institute of General Practice and Family Medicine, Jena University Hospital, Friedrich-Schiller University Jena, Jena, Germany.
Background: There are hardly any data on the extent to which nursing home residents are provided with palliative homecare. We want to add evidence by comparing nursing home residents (who had been living in a nursing home for at least one year) and nursing-care-dependent community dwellers in terms of utilization and quality of palliative homecare.
Methods: We conducted a population-based study with nationwide claims data from deceased beneficiaries of a large German health insurance provider.
BMC Psychiatry
January 2025
Brain and Mind Institute, Aga Khan University, Stadium Road, Karachi, 74800, Pakistan.
Background: With a shortage of mental health specialists and a significant rural population in Pakistan, leveraging community-based healthcare workers becomes crucial to address mental health needs. Equipping the healthcare workers with digital tools such as mobile applications have the potential to increase access to mental health support in low-resource areas. This study examines the acceptability, appropriateness, barriers, and facilitators to implementing a technology-assisted mental health intervention (mPareshan) delivered by Lady Health Workers (LHWs) in rural Pakistan.

Section of Epidemiology and Population Sciences, Department of Medicine, Baylor College of Medicine, Houston, Texas, USA.
Background: Texas has the highest HCC rates in the United States, and the greatest burden is among Hispanics. Racial and ethnic disparities in HCC incidence have multiple underpinning factors. We conducted a mediation analysis to examine the role of neighborhood disadvantage (Area Deprivation Index) as a potential mediator of the association between neighborhood race and ethnicity distribution and neighborhood HCC case counts in Texas.
