Article Abstract
Background: Family-school partnerships (FSPs) play an important role in supporting child health and well-being. The current study aimed to develop and validate a psychometrically sound instrument to assess FSPs within the context of child health.
Methods: The instrument was developed through a mixed-methods three-phased approach, including pilot testing with 105 parent/caregiver (n = 53) and school staff (n = 52) participants. Analytic methods included principal component analysis (PCA) followed by exploratory factor analysis (EFA) that used polychoric correlations.
Results: Results of the PCA and EFA analyses refined the instrument to 24 items across two factors: communication, engagement, and culture (14-items), and opportunities and supports for family engagement (10-items).
Implications For School Health Policy And Practice: The Family-School Partnership Assessment (FSPA) offers a validated framework to enhance school health initiatives through improved partnership strategies. The FSPA promotes inclusive practices and structured approaches for collaborative family engagement.
Conclusions: The FSPA is a feasible and psychometrically valid measure for assessing FSPs within the context of child health.

Diminished ovarian reserve (DOR) poses significant challenges in reproductive health, with emerging evidence implicating DNA damage repair pathways. While GADD45A is a critical regulator of DNA repair, cell cycle and apoptosis, its role in DOR pathogenesis remains unexplored. We employed transcriptome sequencing, qPCR and Western Blot analyses to compare GADD45A expression in granulosa cells (GCs) between DOR patients and controls.

Background And Purpose: Socioeconomic determinants of health impact childhood development and adult health outcomes. One key aspect is the physical environment and neighborhood where children live and grow. Emerging evidence suggests that neighborhood deprivation, often measured by the Area Deprivation Index (ADI), may influence neurodevelopment, but longitudinal and multimodal neuroimaging analyses remain limited.

Background: Local control strategies in pediatric oncology are guided by disease-specific considerations. Effective communication of the goals of surgical procedure and associated intraoperative events plays a crucial role in shaping subsequent treatment decisions. However, accurately and comprehensively documenting these findings remains challenging, with considerable variability across different tumor types.

Background: The COVID-19 pandemic disrupted the provision of sexual and reproductive health services, including contraceptive and family planning (FP) services. The World Health Organization conducted a multi-country study in India, Nigeria and Tanzania to assess the impact of the pandemic on the health system's capacity to provide contraceptive and FP services. In this paper, we share the results of a qualitative study aimed at understanding clients' perspectives at the primary healthcare level on accessing contraceptive services in COVID-19-affected areas in the three aforementioned countries.

Here, using whole-exome sequencing of a cohort of 17 Japanese patients with 46,XY disorders or differences of sex development, we identified two pathogenic DEAH-box helicase 37 (DHX37) variants in three patients. We also identified a patient with a likely pathogenic variant in SOX9 and a rare likely benign variant in DHX37. This Data Report highlights the genetic and phenotypic diversity of DXH37 variants.
