Between 2009 and 2012, the proportion of young women in the United States completing the human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccine doubled. To understand how quickly this increased uptake is affecting women in the United States, we evaluated the prevalence of vaccine-type (VT) HPV strains among young women in national data sets from 2009-2010 and 2011-2012. Among 18-26-year-old women, the prevalence of VT HPV decreased markedly over a short interval, from 15.4% in 2009-2010 to 8.5% in 2011-2012 (prevalence ratio, 0.51; 95% confidence interval, .28-.92), and the prevalence of high-risk VT HPV decreased from 13.1% to 6.5% (0.46; .25-.86). Reductions in HPV-related diseases will probably follow.

Introduction: The UK national pediatric diabetes audit reports higher HbA1c for children and young people (CYP) with type 1 diabetes (T1D) of Black ethnicity compared with White counterparts. This is presumably related to higher mean blood glucose (MBG) due to lower socioeconomic status (SES) and less access to technology. We aimed to determine if HbA1c ethnic disparity persists after accounting for the above variables.

Criteria air pollutant exposure impacts human health through various pathways. Preterm birth (PTB) is one of the major adverse birth outcomes (ABO) associated with such exposure. Although numerous global and regional studies have been conducted on this issue, few have recently investigated the impact of major criteria air pollutant exposure on PTBs in Bangladesh, one of the world's most polluted countries with the highest relative PTB rate.
