  • Future studies should focus on the implications of early detection in diverse populations, emphasizing the importance of personalized communication and shared decision-making in managing patient care.

Evidence-based parenting programs are one effective means to prevent VAC; however, these interventions are not scalable in their typical in-person group format, especially in low- and middle-income countries where the need is greatest.
