Social determinants of contraception use among rural adolescents: Implications for addressing disparities.
J Rural Health
January 2025
Independent Researcher, Seattle, Washington, USA.
Purpose: Few studies have examined disparities in-and social determinants of-contraception use among rural adolescents despite evidence of higher teen birth rates and greater STI risk in rural communities. Guided by a social determinants of health (SDoH) framework, this cross-sectional study aimed to address these gaps.
Methods: Data come from the 2018 Healthy Youth Survey, including N = 3757 sexually active, rural-based adolescents.
Helicopter emergency medical services demonstrate reduced time to emergency anaesthesia in an undifferentiated trauma population: a retrospective observational analysis across three major trauma networks.

Air Ambulance Charity Kent Surrey Sussex, Redhill Aerodrome, Redhill, Surrey, RH1 5YP, UK.
Background: Early rapid sequence induction of anaesthesia (RSI) and tracheal intubation for patients with airway or ventilatory compromise following major trauma is recommended, with guidance suggesting a 45-min timeframe. Whilst on-scene RSI is recommended, the potential time benefit offered by Helicopter Emergency Medical Services (HEMS) has not been studied. We compared the time from 999/112 emergency call to delivery of RSI between patients intubated either in the Emergency Department or pre-hospital by HEMS.

BMC Med Res Methodol
December 2024
Erasmus School of Health Policy and Management, Erasmus University Rotterdam, Rotterdam, the Netherlands.
Background: The aim of this study is to develop a method we call "cost mining" to unravel cost variation and identify cost drivers by modelling integrated patient pathways from primary care to the palliative care setting. This approach fills an urgent need to quantify financial strains on healthcare systems, particularly for colorectal cancer, which is the most expensive cancer in Australia, and the second most expensive cancer globally.
Methods: We developed and published a customized algorithm that dynamically estimates and visualizes the mean, minimum, and total costs of care at the patient level, by aggregating activity-based healthcare system costs (e.
A call for better information about epilepsy: The next of kin perspective.
Seizure
December 2024
National Centre for Epilepsy, Division of Clinical Neuroscience, Oslo University Hospital, Oslo, Norway. Electronic address:
Purpose: For next of kin (NK) to people with epilepsy (PWE) insufficient knowledge about the disease might have a negative impact on disease management, utilization of the health care system and conveyance of attitudes in the society. The aim of this study was to investigate to which degree Norwegian NK to PWE called for and obtained relevant information about different epilepsy-related issues.
Methods: We invited NK visiting the homepage of the Norwegian Epilepsy Association to complete an online questionnaire regarding information about epilepsy.
Outcomes from 306 consecutive robotic ventral hernia repairs in the community setting.
J Robot Surg
December 2024
Mid-Florida Surgical Associates, Clermont, FL, 34711, USA.
Robotic assisted laparoscopy is increasingly popular for primary ventral and incisional hernia repair. A variety of robotic techniques have been described. More data is needed to evaluate the indications and benefits of these approaches.
