Introduction: Sexual and gender minority (SGM) adolescents are at higher risk for adverse health outcomes compared to their cisgender and heterosexual peers.
Methods: Guided by the EPQA standardized reporting system, we implemented an evidence-based practice (EBP) initiative centered on affirmative healthcare for adolescents in two pediatric primary care sites. This initiative revolved around: (1) provider training on healthcare needs of SGM adolescents, (2) the use of two new EHR charting tools for SGM needs, and (3) examination of the EBP initiative using quantitative and qualitative analyses.
Results: Quick-texts tools were used 165 times in 3 months (20.4% compliance). Findings also show providers screened Hispanic patients at a proportionately lower rate (p = .043) as compared to other races and ethnicity. Providers perceived the EBP initiative as informative, feasible, without workflow disruption with suggestions for improvement.
Discussion: This EBP initiative has implications for advanced nursing practice, organizational policy, and health equity.

School of Medical Humanities, Guizhou Medical University, Guiyang, China.
Article Synopsis
- The study aimed to investigate the emotional behavioral problems (EBP) related to learning burnout (LB) in returned migrant middle school students, focusing on the roles of internet addiction (IA) and social support (SS) as mediators.
- Data was collected from 2020 returned migrant students in Guizhou Province, China, utilizing various scales to assess EBP, LB, IA, and SS, along with advanced statistical analysis to explore mediation effects.
- Results indicated that a significant portion of the students faced EBP, and the mediation analysis revealed that both IA and SS significantly influenced the relationship between LB and EBP, suggesting that reducing internet addiction and increasing social support could help alleviate these issues.
Factors Influencing Physiotherapists' Use of Non-Academic Sources for Technical Information in Brazil.
Physiother Res Int

Department of Health Sciences, Federal University of Santa Catarina, Araranguá, Brazil.
Article Synopsis
- The study investigates why some physiotherapists prefer non-academic sources for clinical information and how personal factors like age, recent graduation, and education level impact this preference.
- A survey of 610 physiotherapists revealed that nearly 25% prefer non-academic sources, particularly those over 34 years old who feel unable to apply scientific findings.
- The findings suggest a need for improved training in evidence-based practice to boost confidence and competency in utilizing academic resources in patient care.

Three evidence-based psychotherapies for depression (D-EBPs)-cognitive behavioral therapy for depression, acceptance and commitment therapy for depression, and interpersonal psychotherapy-are available in Veterans Health Administration (VHA) through its training initiative. However, training initiatives are not sufficient to move effective treatments into routine practice. Patient and clinic factors can impact evidence-based psychotherapies use.

Should We Use Clinician Self-Report to Tailor Implementation Strategies? Predicting Use of Youth CBT with Clinician Self-Report Versus Direct Observation.

Developing tailored implementation strategies to increase the use of evidence-based practice (EBP) requires accurate identification of predictors of their use. However, known difficulties with measuring EBP use complicates interpretation of the extant literature. In this proof-of-concept study, we examined whether the same predictors of use of cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) are identified when CBT use is measured with clinician self-report compared to direct observation.
