Alcohol Res
January 2025
Center for Opioid Epidemiology and Policy, Division of Epidemiology, Department of Population Health, New York University Grossman School of Medicine, New York, New York.
Background: Firearm violence remains a leading cause of death and injury in the United States. Prior research supports that alcohol exposures, including individual-level alcohol use and alcohol control policies, are modifiable risk factors for firearm violence, yet additional research is needed to support prevention efforts.
Objectives: This scoping review aims to update a prior 2016 systematic review on the links between alcohol exposure and firearm violence to examine whether current studies indicate causal links between alcohol use, alcohol interventions, and firearm violence-related outcomes.
Global status and attributable risk factors of breast, cervical, ovarian, and uterine cancers from 1990 to 2021.

Department of Breast Surgery, The First Affiliated Hospital, College of Medicine, Zhejiang University, Hangzhou, 310000, People's Republic of China.
Background: Female-specific cancers, particularly breast, cervical, ovarian, and uterine cancers, account for nearly 40% of all cancers in women. This study aimed to analyze the global epidemiological trends of these cancers from 1990 to 2021, offering insights into their evolving patterns and providing valuable information for health policymakers to allocate healthcare resources more effectively.
Methods: Data from the Global Burden of Disease Study 2021 (GBD 2021) were used to comprehensively assess the global incidence, mortality, and disability-adjusted life years (DALYs) of female-specific cancers.

January 2025
Department of Obstetrics, Gynecology & Reproductive Sciences, University of California, San Francisco, California, USA.
Objective: We explored awareness of and attitudes about the safety of various methods people use to attempt to end a pregnancy without medical assistance, which we refer to in this study collectively as self-managed abortion (SMA).
Methods: In 2020, we invited individuals living in eight United States (US) states considered "hostile" to abortion rights or with a history of criminalizing abortions performed outside the formal healthcare system to participate in semi-structured telephone interviews regarding their attitudes toward these practices. We analyzed coded transcripts for content and themes.
Sexual Risks in Young Patients in Inpatient Child and Adolescent Psychiatric and Psychotherapeutic Addiction Treatment Engaging in fulfilling and low-risk sexual relationships is a developmental task in adolescence and young adulthood. At the same time, sexual contact is associated with risks, including early and/or unwanted pregnancies, sexually transmitted infections (STIs) and negative sexual experiences. In the present study, n = 84 inpatients in child and adolescent psychiatric and psychotherapeutic addiction treatment aged between 13 and 19 years were examined.

Article Synopsis
- Mental health issues and substance use disorders are prevalent among people living with HIV (PLHIV) and contribute to risky sexual behaviors, especially in the Asia-Pacific region where data is scarce.
- A study involving 723 adult PLHIV revealed that a significant portion (37%) engaged in medium- to high-risk sexual practices, with such behaviors being more prevalent among younger individuals, those who are unemployed, and those experiencing moderate to severe depression or high-risk substance use.
- The findings highlight the need for integrating mental health support and substance use harm reduction within HIV care to improve sexual health outcomes in this population.
