: Few studies have assessed barriers to providing care from the perspective of interprofessional healthcare providers. Despite Idaho's predominantly rural geography, limited research exists assessing barriers to providing care within the state. This study sought to assess barriers to providing optimal healthcare using a sample of 400 healthcare providers at 22 clinic sites across the state. : A barriers to providing optimal care 9-factor, 41-item survey was modified from an existing survey. Healthcare providers rated barrier items using an 11-point Likert scale. The survey was distributed to a convenience sample of healthcare providers in 22 different clinic sites in rural Idaho. : Four hundred interprofessional healthcare providers in Idaho across 13 professional disciplines completed surveys. Items in the (mean = 7.14), (mean = 6.59), and (mean = 6.18) factors were reported as the most commonly perceived barriers to providing optimal care. : Few studies have assessed rural interprofessional providers' perceived barriers to providing optimal, high-quality, care, specifically in the rural state of Idaho, where healthcare services are often not equitable compared to urban regions. The results suggest that commonly perceived barriers exist throughout the state, particularly , , and . Further research is needed to develop data-driven decisions to address these concerns.

Background: The COVID-19 pandemic forced the world to quarantine to slow the rate of transmission, causing communities to transition into virtual spaces. Asian American and Pacific Islander communities faced the additional challenge of discrimination that stemmed from racist and xenophobic rhetoric in the media. Limited data exist on technology use among Asian American and Pacific Islander adults during the height of the COVID-19 shelter-in-place period and its effect on their physical and mental health.

Hemophilia, an X-linked monogenic disorder, arises from mutations in the or genes, which encode clotting factor VIII (FVIII) or clotting factor IX (FIX), respectively. As a prominent hereditary coagulation disorder, hemophilia is clinically manifested by spontaneous hemorrhagic episodes. Severe cases may progress to complications such as stroke and arthropathy, significantly compromising patients' quality of life.

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.

Purpose: Antibiotic-sparing treatment (ASPT) strategies, such as delayed prescribing and symptomatic treatment, are promising to reduce antimicrobial consumption (AMC) in patients with uncomplicated urinary tract infections (uUTI). The aim of this scoping review was to identify literature reporting on factors that may act as barriers and facilitators to the use of ASPT in order to improve implementation.
Methods: MEDLINE (Ovid), Embase, the Cochrane Database, Google Scholar, Proquest Dissertations and Theses, the Clinical Trials Gov Registry and the ICTRP WHO Registry were searched for evidence of health care professionals and/or patients exposed to ASPT in the context of uUTI.

ACP-105 (CAS: 1048998-11-3) is a novel non-steroidal selective androgen receptor modulator (SARM), increasingly detected in anti-doping analyses, yet lacking a comprehensive ADME profile. This study provides the first integrative in silico characterization of ACP-105's ADME properties using seven independent methods (ADMETlab 3.0, ADMET Predictor 12.
