Focusing on three specific organizations-The Terrence Higgins Trust (THT), Blackliners, and The NAZ Project (Naz)-this article explores the different ways in which voluntary organizations responded to Black gay men (BGM) in Britain during the AIDS crisis from the 1980s to 2000. Illustrating how the place of BGM in Britain at this time was multidimensional and often contradictory, the first section demonstrates how they required safer-sex messaging that took account of the heterogeneous ways in which they experienced the intersection of racism and homophobia. Situated in this context, the second section explores for the first time the well-documented work of THT as it applied to BGM.

Many individuals with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) face significant challenges manifesting their family planning goals due to numerous factors, including disease-related complications, treatment-induced effects, immunological factors, self-imposed limitations, and the socioeconomic impacts of having a chronic disease. Instances of unexplained infertility are also prevalent. Encouragingly, advancements in treatment modalities, risk factor management, specialized training within the medical community, and enhanced patient/provider education have contributed to an increase in successful pregnancies among SLE patients, fostering a safer, more promising reproductive landscape.

Sperm motility is a primary criterion for selecting viable and functional sperm in assisted reproduction, where the most motile sperm are used to increase the likelihood of successful conception. Traditional chemical agents to enhance motility pose embryo-toxicity risks, necessitating safer alternatives. This study investigates the use of low-intensity pulsed ultrasound exposure as a non-invasive treatment within an acoustofluidic device to maintain sperm motility.

The teratogenic potential of valproate in pregnancy is well established; however, evidence regarding the long-term safety of other antiseizure medications (ASMs) during pregnancy remains limited. Using routinely collected primary care data from the UK and nationwide Swedish registries to create a cohort of 3,182,773 children, of which 17,495 were exposed to ASMs in pregnancy, we show that those exposed to valproate were more likely to receive a diagnosis of autism, intellectual disability, and ADHD, when compared to children not exposed to ASMs. Additionally, children exposed to topiramate were 2.
