Parents’ Motivations for Calling an Out-of-Hours Helpline: Qualitative Study

Parents’ Motivations for Calling an Out-of-Hours Helpline: Qualitative Study

Young children often fall ill, leading to more out-of-hours health care usage compared with other patient age groups [1-3]. Fortunately, severe illness in children is rare [4]. In a study of 16,000 children under 5 years admitted to a pediatric department with fever, only 7% had a severe infection [5]. The high rate of health care usage is often driven by a fear of making the wrong decisions and failing to recognize severe symptoms, particularly in young children [5-10].

Centering Youth Voice in the Adaptation of an mHealth Intervention for Young Adults With HIV in South Texas, United States: Human-Centered Design Approach

Young adults living with HIV face difficulty with care engagement [1]. While existing studies of young adults with HIV include varying age ranges, spanning 13 to 29 years, most agree that young adults with HIV across the age spectrum face unique challenges in care engagement. These include limited opportunities for care, higher rates of missed appointments, and medication nonadherence, all of which contribute to difficulties in achieving viral suppression [2-4].

Racial and Ethnic Differences in Mobile App Use for Meeting Sexual Partners Among Young Men Who Have Sex With Men and Young Transgender Women: Cross-Sectional Study

Young men who have sex with men and young transgender women (YMSM-YTW) primarily use websites and mobile apps to find sexual partners [1]. However, there is a body of evidence that suggests that racial and ethnic minority YMSM-YTW experience online dating differently than majority populations [2-5].

In addition, young people with T1 D show significant decline in treatment adherence as they move through adolescence [9]. Several interventions have been developed to help young people with T1 D effectively manage their physical activity [10]. However, few randomized controlled trials have explored the efficacy of these interventions [11].

Much of this discrimination and harassment happens in schools for young people, with 44% of LGBT+ students (15-17 years of age) in Romania saying they are hiding being LGBT+ at school, a rate that is 3 to 4 times higher than in countries such as Luxembourg (11%), the Netherlands (16%), or Malta (17%).

An Implementation Pilot of Web-Based Self-Training Programs on Sexual Dysfunctions in the Dutch Public Sexual Health Setting: Mixed Methods Study

A study in the Netherlands among sexually active young people (aged 12-24 y) showed that premature ejaculation is the most frequent problem among young men: 25% experienced this problem in the last 3 months, and 5% experienced this problem often and indicated that it is (quite or very) bothersome. Among young women, problems related to orgasm (39%), no sex drive (34%), lubrication problems (31%), and pain during intercourse (27%) are frequently occurring problems [7].

Long-Acting Injectable Cabotegravir for HIV Preexposure Prophylaxis Among Sexual and Gender Minorities: Protocol for an Implementation Study

Young MSM aged ≤30 years are among the few populations with an increasing number of new HIV infections in Brazil, whereas HIV incidence has stabilized in the overall population [2]. Since December 2017, oral tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (TDF) and emtricitabine (FTC) HIV preexposure prophylaxis (Pr EP) have been freely available in Brazil through the national public health system (Sistema Único de Saúde [SUS]) [5].
