Intimate partner violence (IPV) has been identified as a significant public health problem that impacts millions of men and women in communities across the United States. The authors describe how one Veterans Affairs Medical Center (VAMC) utilizes a contemporary integrative approach (i.e., contextual IPV framework) in a specialty mental health clinic focused on treatment and prevention of IPV. This framework values psychosocial rehabilitation and a veteran-centered approach in IPV-related treatment, reduces stigma and shame connected with use and/or experience of IPV while simultaneously holding individuals accountable for their behavior, and creates a therapeutic context that allows for comprehensive assessment, systemic conceptualization, and collaborative treatment planning. The authors provide an overview of the clinic and present three clinical cases to illustrate how the contextual IPV framework is utilized in this setting.

As we commemorate 50 years of the Expanded Programme on Immunization (EPI), the global mission to eradicate polio stands at a critical juncture. While remarkable progress has been made over the past decades, ensuring a steady supply of polio vaccines remains a significant challenge that could undermine these achievements. This manuscript aims to address the complexities of polio vaccine security within the context of the Immunization Agenda 2030 (IA2030) and the Global Polio Eradication Strategy 2022-2029, proposing actionable strategies to strengthen the vaccine supply.

While global studies indicate a conspicuous increase in IPV during COVID-19 lockdowns; Indian studies exhibit mixed evidence. This ambiguity in world's most populous country underscores a greater need to examine the nexus between exposure to COVID-19 and IPV using a large nationally representative sample of India.

This study investigated how Ultraorthodox Jewish Women (UJW) survivors attribute blame in intimate partner violence (IPV) experiences, addressing a significant research gap in understanding IPV within specific cultural contexts. The research employed a phenomenological approach through 15 semistructured face-to-face interviews with UJW IPV survivors. The findings revealed diverse patterns of blame attribution, including exclusive perpetrator blame, self-blame, and shared responsibility.

Research on the intergenerational transmission of intimate partner violence (IPV), or the "cycle of violence," from childhood exposure (G1) to the perpetration of IPV in adulthood relationships (G2), has increased over the past decades. The link between childhood exposure to interparental violence and future IPV perpetration is largely explained by postulations from social and psychological theories, such as social learning theory. These theories provide claims regarding IPV transmission pathways and the mechanisms underpinning the transmission.
