Background: Identifying risk factors associated with hematoma expansion following spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) is essential for improving early intervention strategies. We hope to use this predictive model in the future to comprehensively score the risk factors of hospitalized patients with cerebral hemorrhage and evaluate the possibility of hematoma enlargement. Being able to identify high-risk patients with hematoma enlargement early and take intervention measures to save their lives.

Background: Little is documented on key community-based One Health (OH) approach implementation, pro-activeness and effectiveness of interactions and strategies against Mpox outbreak public health emergency in international concern (PHEIC) in various African countries in order to stamp out the persisting Mpox outbreak threat and burden. Prioritizing critical community-based interventions and lessons learned from previous COVID-19, Mpox, Ebola, COVID-19, Rift Valley Fever and Marburg virus outbreaks revealed critical shortcomings in funding, surveillance, and community engagement that plague public health initiatives across the continent. The article provides critical insights and benefits of community-based One Health approaches implementation against Mpox outbreak management in Africa.

Importance: Significant advancements have been made in the management of sickle cell disease (SCD); an inherited blood disorder most prevalent among African Americans. While chronic pain is a hallmark of SCD and has been the primary focus of treatment, contemporary literature highlights the potential presence of developmental issues related to speech, language, neurocognitive, and auditory abilities that are often overlooked in SCD management.
Observations: This paper explores the spectrum of communication-related challenges that specifically affect children with SCD and fall within the scope of practice for speech-language pathologists (SLPs) and audiologists (AUDs).

Background: Epidemiologic studies have linked neighborhood socioeconomic conditions to health. However, few have examined neighborhood structural investment (NSI) influences on cardiometabolic risk markers across urban environments. This study investigated whether NSI varies by historic redlining, associations between NSI and the prevalence of obesity, diabetes, and coronary heart disease (CHD) and whether redlining's effect on obesity, diabetes, and CHD prevalence are mediated by neighborhood structural investment.

Background: Oral emtricitabine/tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (F/TDF) preexposure prophylaxis (PrEP) effectiveness against HIV acquisition highly depends on adherence. For men who have sex with men, a dosing study in the United States (US) population defined clinically meaningful tenofovir diphosphate (TFV-DP) thresholds in dried blood spots (DBS) based on the rounded 25th percentile for 2, 4, and 7 doses/week as 350, 700, and 1,250 fmol/punch. However, divergent efficacy results in the first generation randomized clinical trials of F/TDF PrEP among African women led to several hypotheses to question whether the pharmacology and adherence requirement for oral F/TDF PrEP may be different in cisgender women compared to what is already established for men.
