Article Abstract
Healthcare providers whom people see regularly (e.g., primary care providers [PCPs]) are likely to interact with individuals at risk of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). However, most PCPs report never prescribing pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP), a medication that prevents HIV infection. This study examined the association between having a regular healthcare provider and PrEP use among men who have sex with men (MSM). We analyzed health survey data from Black (n = 151) and White (n = 113) MSM in Atlanta, GA using log binomial regressions. Among Black MSM, the proportion who used PrEP was nearly three times higher for those with a regular provider compared to those without one (aPR 2.58; 95% CI: 0.96, 6.93). Conversely, the proportion of White MSM who used PrEP was slightly lower among those with a regular provider (aPR 0.67; 95% CI: 0.36, 1.27). Findings suggest having a regular provider may be more strongly associated with PrEP among Black MSM.

Major depression disorder (MDD) is a mental condition that significantly threatens both physical and psychological health. This study aimed to discern variances in plasma metabolic profiles between MDD sufferers and healthy counterparts. Additionally, we tracked the hospitalization journey of MDD patients to investigate the normalization of metabolic irregularities through conventional treatment in the form of self-control.

Exposure to traumatic events is common amongst children from refugee backgrounds. Given the restricted access of refugee children to formal specialist resources and disrupted parental support mechanisms in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs), teachers are increasingly expected to be the primary responders to the complex psychosocial needs of trauma-exposed refugee children. However, despite LMICs hosting over two-thirds of the world's refugee children, our current knowledge of how teachers respond to these needs is predominantly drawn from studies conducted in well-resourced, high-income countries, which fails to capture the unique experiences of teachers in inadequately resourced schools in LMICs.

Unlabelled: REMS-BMD by radiofrequency echographic multispectrometry is primarily determined by a patient's BMI, age, and sex. Only about 2.8% of the changes in femoral neck REMS-BMD can be attributed to replacement of the total hip with metal implants.

Rationale: Clinical innovation-where physicians develop and use novel interventions that differ significantly from standard practice and that have not been shown to be sufficiently safe or effective for regular use in healthcare systems-has the potential to transform patient care and drive medical advancement. However, it is not without risk. It is important, therefore, that policymakers and healthcare institutions develop strategies to encourage responsible clinical innovation.

Background: In order to improve the outcomes of children and adolescents with type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM), access to and quality of comprehensive acute and chronic care services in low- and middle-income countries (LMIC) must be improved.
Objectives: To identify and summarise the characteristics of models of care for T1DM in children and adolescents in LMIC.
Search Methods: We searched MEDLINE, Scopus, the Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials (CENTRAL), and the World Health Organization (WHO) Global Index Medicus from inception to 11 December 2023 without restrictions.
