Objective: Experiencing intimate partner violence (IPV) can negatively impact young people's reproductive autonomy, including making it more challenging to get contraception. This study examined the association between IPV and delays in obtaining contraception in a sample of young women from California and Texas.
Study Design: The data are from a supplementary study to a cluster randomized controlled trial conducted with young people sexually-active within the past year recruited at 29 community colleges during the COVID-19 pandemic (May 2020-May 2023).

Objective: Spondylodiscitis is classically believed to reflect intravenous drug use in urban centers, hemodialysis-associated complications, and generalized poor medical care, but these associations may be more complex and reflect underlying systemic societal problems. The authors sought to characterize socioeconomic and demographic elements associated with spondylodiscitis to better understand community factors placing patients at risk of this infection.
Methods: All cases of spondylodiscitis at an urban, tertiary-level academic hospital since 2015 were surveyed.

This paper analyzes recognition as a temporal phenomenon. It seeks to better understand how the temporality of recognition-that is, when it is demanded, received, and given, and for how long-is structured in modern societies, and what the consequences are when these temporal structures erode or collapse. To this end, the paper focuses on two social processes: poverty and the precarization of work.

Previous research has shown significant inequalities in health care quality, access, satisfaction, and outcomes of Asian compared to White individuals. There is limited research currently available exploring disparities in health care quality at the intersection of race and CSHCN complexity for Asian versus White children.

Many older adults will need Medicaid to cover health and long-term care costs, yet the process by which these older adults gain access to Medicaid is poorly understood. In a case study of family caregivers and key program staff at a skilled nursing facility in a large, urban county in North Carolina, I document the experiences of older adults' families applying for Medicaid. Participants report challenges with the application process and their own assets creating barriers to enrollment, while having a health event requiring institutionalised care precipitated access.
