Data are from the 2022 LGBTQ National Teen Survey (N = 10,871). Descriptive analyses and chi-square tests were conducted for social position, LGBTQ+-inclusive school resources, and HIV prevention variables. Social positions and two LGBTQ+-inclusive school resources were then entered into exhaustive chi-square automatic interaction detection models of HIV prevention behaviors (heard of/taken pre-exposure prophylaxis, HIV-testing, and consistent condom use). Groups with the highest and lowest prevalence of HIV prevention behaviors are described. LGBTQ+-inclusive school resources, especially sex education, were promotive of HIV prevention behaviors and mitigated some disparities across social positions. However, some disparities by social positions persisted. Gay or queer cisgender boys were consistently in the highest prevalence HIV prevention behavior groups, whereas youth who self-reported they were bisexual/pansexual, asexual, sexual identity questioning, straight or a sexual identity not listed, especially those who lacked LGBTQ+-inclusive school resources, were overrepresented in the low prevalence groups. LGBTQ+-inclusive school resources are important sources of HIV prevention information and may mitigate some HIV-related disparities.</p>","PeriodicalId":48268,"journal":{"name":"Prevention Science","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.0,"publicationDate":"2025-03-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143659037","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Moreover, whether there existed a moderating role of genetic susceptibility in this effect on childhood/adolescent-onset asthma (COA) and adult-out asthma (AOA) was unknown. We employed the UK Biobank cohort to estimate the effect of maternal smoking during pregnancy on the risk of offspring asthma (41,828 AOA and 15,120 COA). We investigated genetic influence on asthma and assessed the moderating role of genetic susceptibility in this effect by incorporating polygenetic risk score (PRS) and performing a stratified analysis in distinct genetic risk populations. Hazard ratio (HR) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were reported. We found that participants whose mother smoked during pregnancy were more likely to occur asthma (HR = 1.14, 95%CIs 1.12 ~ 1.16), with similar effects for AOA and COA. Additionally, we observed a significant association between genetic factors and asthma (HR = 1.70, 95%CIs 1.66 ~ 1.74), with a higher genetic influence on COA (HR = 2.16, 95%CIs 2.09 ~ 2.23) compared to AOA (HR = 1.84, 95%CIs 1.76 ~ 1.93). Furthermore, we revealed that genetic factors could modify the effect of maternal smoking during pregnancy on asthma especially among childhood and adolescents, with participants having high genetic risk versus low genetic risk (HR = 1.13 vs. 1.02, P = 0.035). We provided supportive evidence that maternal smoking during pregnancy and the genetic factors increased the risk of offspring asthma in whole population.

Drawing on existing best-practice recommendations for tailoring interventions to new cultural and social contexts, this study evaluates initial evidence of the acceptability and feasibility of adapting the Chicago Parent Program (CPP) for foster and kinship care. An expert panel of foster and kinship caregivers, clinicians, and other professionals with experience in CPP and child welfare arenas was convened to review and adapt CPP materials in collaboration with researchers. The adapted program was then delivered to 12 foster and kinship caregivers, who completed surveys and qualitative interviews to provide feedback about the revised program. Caregiver satisfaction with the program was generally high. In interviews, caregivers emphasized that group sessions resonated with them (theme 1), that they appreciated the opportunity to connect with the program via mandated foster care clinic visits (theme 2), and that adapted components of the program delivery (theme 3), and materials (theme 4) were relevant. Caregivers also noted barriers with behavior management and logistical challenges that made it more difficult to attend regularly and complete practice assignments, which was reflected in reduced participation rates during the pilot. Overall, these findings suggest that careful and empirically driven adaptation to effective parent-focused prevention programs can be achieved for foster and kinship caregivers, leading to high potential impact for a population that has generally been under-resourced and experiences high need and mental health burden.</p>","PeriodicalId":48268,"journal":{"name":"Prevention Science","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.0,"publicationDate":"2025-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143537982","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Innovations such as remote observational assessments improved reliability, reduced costs, and increased accessibility. However, the pandemic also revealed how contextual factors influence measurement properties for key constructs, with examples from this issue showing shifts in scale dimensionality and item functioning over time.

No significant associations between alcohol use and STB were found. Lastly, cannabis emerged as a significant moderator of the associations between bullying victimization and suicidal ideation and plans, such that adolescents who were bullied and used cannabis were less likely to report suicidal ideation and planning compared to those who were bullied but did not use cannabis.

For remote recruitment, we contacted 6238 women; 1360 completed the study screening questionnaire (mean age = 31.5; SD = 4.6), 90 were eligible, and 73 were enrolled (6% eligibility).
