Article Abstract
Background: (1) Statistically significant association between sociodemographic and gynecological-obstetric variables.
Background: (2) The puerperal women had inadequate knowledge, attitudes and practices about the mini-pill.
Background: (3) After two months, there was an increase in the puerperal women's knowledge and practice.
Background: (4) The average Knowledge, Attitude and Practice scores before the intervention and after 60 days remained inadequate.
Background: (5) The technology used in the educational intervention is effective in promoting the Knowledge, Attitude and Practice domains.
Unlabelled: to evaluate the effectiveness of an educational intervention on the knowledge, attitude and practice of adolescent puerperal women regarding the mini-pill as a method of contraception in the postpartum period.
Unlabelled: a quasi-experimental study with pre- and post-tests carried out with 139 puerperal adolescents in four public maternity hospitals, using an instrument with sociodemographic/gyneco-obstetric questions and a targeted survey called Knowledge, Attitude and Practice. The following were used in the analysis: Statistical Package for the Social Sciences software, version 20.1 for Windows; 5% significance level; 95% confidence interval; Shapiro-Wilk test to test data normality and paired t-test.
Unlabelled: the average scores for the Knowledge, Attitude and Practice instrument were inadequate before the educational intervention; after the intervention, they remained inadequate, but with a slight improvement; the attitude was markedly inadequate. This instrument, before the intervention, was associated with age, education, number of pregnancies and having had prenatal care; after the intervention, in addition to these, it was associated with other variables, such as place of residence, being in school and having used contraception. The three domains were associated before and after the intervention.
Unlabelled: the educational intervention, mediated by the nurse, was effective in promoting the knowledge, attitude and practice of puerperal adolescents in the proper use of the mini-pill as postpartum contraception.

Implementation and evaluation of a family planning intervention engaging mothers-in-law of young women in India: a mixed methods pilot study.
Glob Health Action
December 2025
Institute for Global Health Sciences, University of California, San Francisco, CA, USA.
Background: Despite evidence that mothers-in-law (MILs) influence daughters-in-law's (DILs) fertility and family planning decisions in South Asia, emphasizing early fertility and male grandchildren, few reproductive health interventions engage MILs directly.
Objectives: We assessed the feasibility, acceptability, and qualitative impact of a reproductive health and life skill-based intervention on MILs in tribal Rajasthan, India, using a mixed-methods, single-group cluster pilot study.
Methods: We tested a light-touch four-session intervention delivered over 4 months to MILs of newly married women that covered MILs' health, conception, and communication with DILs and sons and addressed modern healthcare misconceptions, while challenging son preference and fertility norms.
Improving vaccine communication to the often-overlooked young adult population: A qualitative study of 20-29 year olds in British Columbia, Canada.
Hum Vaccin Immunother
December 2025
Vaccine Evaluation Center, British Columbia Children's Hospital Research Institute, Vancouver, Canada.
Young adults in their 20s have shown slower uptake of COVID-19 vaccines relative to older adults, potentially endangering themselves and their communities. Despite this, little vaccine communication has specifically targeted this age group. This study explored why "20-somethings" in British Columbia (BC), Canada delayed COVID-19 vaccination, and how to better encourage their vaccine uptake.

J Hum Nutr Diet
October 2025
School of Health, Medicine and Life Sciences, University of Hertfordshire, Hatfield, UK.
Background: Evidence suggests that women should eat a healthy diet during pre-conception and pregnancy as this benefits their own health as well as reducing the risk of non-communicable diseases in offspring (such as obesity, diabetes, hypertension, cardiovascular and mental health problems); however, previous work indicates that the recommendations are not being followed. This study aimed to understand: the facilitators and barriers to healthy food and diet practices during pre-conception and pregnancy; how these barriers could be addressed, and the changes required to facilitate good food practices.
Methods: The research used a qualitative approach; five online focus groups were undertaken with 19 women living across the UK who were trying to conceive, pregnant or had babies under 6-months old.

Background: Palliative care needs are prevalent among nursing home (NH) residents. However, access to and integration of palliative care services remain limited. NHs often rely on a workforce with varying levels of training and exposure to palliative care, which may influence care quality and consistency.
