Article Abstract
Aim: To describe prevalence of early initiation of breastfeeding and associated factors among Vietnamese mothers.
Methods: A self-administered questionnaire was used to survey 1812 mothers whose infants were aged 0 to less than 30 months in multi-center Vietnam. Multivariate logistic regression was performed to identify factors associated independently with early initiation of breastfeeding.
Results: Prevalence of early initiation of breastfeeding was 57.2 % and this prevalence was higher in female infants compared with male infants (p = 0.004). Factors associated with increased odds of early initiation of breastfeeding include female infants (aOR: 1.33; 95%CI: 1.06 to 1.68) living in urban areas (aOR: 1.34, 95%CI: 1.05 to 1.71), giving birth in private hospitals (aOR: 1.94, 95%CI: 1.25 to 3.03), vaginal birth (aOR: 1.70, 95%CI: 1.34 to 2.16). Factors associated with decreased odds of early initiation of breastfeeding include higher educational level, mother's weight gain during pregnancy, and infant complication at birth. Compared with mothers who had not experienced skin-to-skin contact with their babies, the prevalence of early initiation of breastfeeding was higher in mothers who experienced <15 min (aOR: 2.03, 95%CI: 1.32 to 3.14), 15-90 min (aOR: 6.33, 95%CI: 4.11 to 9.76), and >90 min (aOR: 10.98, 95%CI: 6.79 to 17.75).
Conclusion: Focusing on modifiable factors should be a key priority to help improve early initiation of breastfeeding practice.

Introduction: Therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM) in inflammatory rheumatic diseases (RMDs) is gaining interest. However, there are unresolved questions about the best practices for implementing TDM effectively in clinical settings.
Objective: The primary objective of this study was to evaluate whether early TDM of adalimumab predicts drug survival at 52 weeks in patients with RMDs.

Background: Traditionally, dental implants require a healing period of 4 to 9 months for osseointegration, with longer recovery times considered when bone grafting is needed. This retrospective study evaluates the clinical efficacy of demineralized dentin matrix (DDM) combined with recombinant human bone morphogenetic protein-2 (rhBMP-2) during dental implant placement to expedite the osseointegration period for early loading.
Methods: Thirty patients (17 male, 13 female; mean age 55.
The Impact of Adverse Childhood Experiences on the Development of Adolescent Risk-Taking: The Mediating Effect of Self-Control and Moderating Effect of Genetic Variations.

Risk-taking is a concerning yet prevalent issue during adolescence and can be life-threatening. Examining its etiological sources and evolving pathways helps inform strategies to mitigate adolescents' risk-taking behavior. Studies have found that unfavorable environmental factors, such as adverse childhood experiences (ACEs), are associated with momentary levels of risk-taking in adolescents, but little is known about whether ACEs shape the developmental trajectory of risk-taking.
