Objective: To examine the association between neighborhood socioeconomic disadvantage and birth outcomes among refugee women in Denmark, leveraging a natural experiment.
Methods: This register-based study included 15 118 infants born to women who arrived in Denmark as refugees during 1986 to 1998, when a dispersal policy was in place that quasirandomly assigned newcomers to neighborhoods with varying degrees of socioeconomic disadvantage. Neighborhood disadvantage was measured using a composite index representing neighborhood-level income, education, unemployment, and welfare assistance.

Article Synopsis
- - This study investigates the sexual and reproductive health and rights (SRHR) experiences of migrant and refugee youth (MRY) in Greater Western Sydney, highlighting how cultural and systemic barriers may impact their health outcomes.
- - Through 17 focus groups with 87 MRY aged 15-29, researchers used a socioecological framework to analyze key facilitators affecting their SRHR, such as peer support, access to contraception, and digital resources for information.
- - The study concludes that SRHR interventions should utilize peer networks, improve access to contraceptives, and create culturally relevant online resources, while also calling for further research to better support MRY's diverse needs.
Introduction: Ethnic minority populations experience significant health and social care disparities; despite experiencing a greater burden of diseases, these groups are underrepresented in health and social care research. Consequently, related research can be less applicable to these population groups. The REPRESENT study aims to explore the health and social care experiences of ethnic minorities and other minoritised populations, their research interests and appropriate research practices.

This community case study describes the State of Minnesota's cross-sectoral response that created a welcoming environment, identified public health concerns, and addressed acute medical needs.
