Barriers and Facilitators of Help-Seeking for LGBTQ+ Survivors of Sexual Violence: A Systematic Review.
Trauma Violence Abuse
August 2025
People who identify as LGBTQ+ (Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, Queer, plus) are known to experience similar or higher levels of sexual violence compared to their heterosexual cisgender counterparts. However, sexual violence research has largely focused on heterosexual female survivors of male perpetrated crime. Thus, the unique support needs and help-seeking patterns of LGBTQ+ survivors are poorly understood.

- A study was conducted on spotted seals in Peter the Great Bay to measure the levels of halogenated organic pollutants (HOPs), revealing high accumulation of polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) and organochlorine pesticides despite regulations.
- *The research found that older seals had higher levels of hexabromocyclododecanes, and identified 35 additional non-target PCBs that are not regularly monitored, indicating a gap in current assessment methods.
- *Alarmingly, 95% of the seals had PCB levels surpassing safe thresholds, showing the urgent need for more comprehensive monitoring strategies to evaluate the health risks of HOPs to marine life.
Stroke, one of the leading causes of death around the globe, is expected to rise considerably by 2050. The expanding nanotechnology science offers a promising future for medical research treating stroke. Nanomaterials are expanding their application in stroke management by structure and function as in perfluorocarbon, iron oxide nanoparticles, gold nanoparticles, dendrimers, quantum dots, nanospheres, and other organic and inorganic nanostructures.
