Article Abstract
Aim: To identify and synthesize qualitative evidence on the stigma experiences of adolescents with type 1 diabetes.
Methods: Six databases were searched from inception to February 2024: PubMed, Cochrane Library, CINAHL, MEDLINE, Embase, and PsycINFO. This meta-synthesis followed the PRISMA (Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses) statement. Findings from the included qualitative studies were synthesized using Thomas and Harden's methodology.
Results: About 17 studies were included in the meta-synthesis. Two synthesized findings emerged, including living in stigma (individual perceived and internalized stigma, stigma in interpersonal interactions, implicit stigma in the social structure) and coping with stigma (active stigma coping and escape-avoidance).
Conclusion: This review is the first meta-synthesis specifically aimed at exploring the stigma experiences among adolescents with type 1 diabetes across individual, interpersonal, and structural levels. The multisourced stigma identified in this review is instrumental in the development of culturally informed and multitiered anti-stigma interventions for this population. It is imperative to enhance adolescents' coping abilities regarding stigma, as is the creation of a stigma-free environment for them.

Beyond the conventional: Exploring pedestrian safety on interstates with Bayesian and machine learning models.

Department of Civil & Environmental Engineering, The University of Tennessee, Knoxville, United States. Electronic address:
Introduction: Despite being prohibited from walking on freeways per federal laws, 14% to 17% of all pedestrian crashes in the United States happen on the interstates. Examining these crashes within the context of the safe systems approach is essential, with an emphasis on mitigating safety risks for all road users. This study investigates the correlates of pedestrian crash injury severity on interstates in North Carolina, focusing on pedestrian actions, roadway conditions, and the type of vehicles involved in the crashes.

Eating disorders are primarily associated with women and an obsession with thinness. Recent research and social media content show that men are also concerned about their body image, striving for a muscular and athletic physique. To investigate eating disorder tendencies among male content creators with a mesomorphic body type (N = 26), a social media analysis was conducted on Instagram and TikTok over four weeks.
