We present our ideas in three main sections, all underpinned by the centrality of stakeholder involvement and an awareness of the role of masculinities in shaping the research process. First, we address practical methods to reach men as participants. Second, we explore ways of maintaining men's engagement following recruitment, such as novel approaches to language use in research materials.

Whilst hegemonic masculine ideals have been reported to negatively impact men's mental and physical health, increasingly research has emphasized that men engage in a diverse range of practices, including those beneficial to health. One such practice is posting about their illness experiences on social media. The interactive nature of posting online means that a dialogical approach, based on a relational epistemology, is particularly useful. This study therefore asked: \"How do men who post publicly on social media author themselves and their experiences of CD?\" Three participants were recruited, all of whom had a diagnosis of CD, wrote a blog, and posted on other social networking sites (SNSs) about CD. Two resided in Canada and one in the United Kingdom. All were white. For each participant, 2 years of multimodal social media data was downloaded. After screening, in-depth analysis was conducted using a dialogical approach focusing on three key dialogical concepts: genre, chronotope, and forms of authorship. The key findings emphasized the participants' different responses to the lack of predictability caused by CD and the different ways they used social media to gain a greater sense of control over their illness stories and identities, providing important insights into the interaction between masculine identities and illness. Finally, the potential deployment of such methods in future research and within therapeutic contexts was considered.</p>","PeriodicalId":48437,"journal":{"name":"Qualitative Health Research","volume":" ","pages":"887-900"},"PeriodicalIF":2.6,"publicationDate":"2025-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12117138/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142510592","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The article investigates how YACCs handle their illness in the context of their peer relationships and how peers see their own role in the context of the YACCs' self-management. What do chronic homework and chronic care infrastructures look like, if the chronic conditions concern young adults in comparatively unstable and non-committal relationships with their peers? Episodic interviews were conducted with 60 YACCs (with type 1 diabetes, cancer, chronic inflammatory bowel disease, and rare conditions) and 30 peers. The interviews were analyzed using thematic coding. The YACCs' statements were compared to the peer perspectives on a case-by-case basis. We found that peers differ in the extent to which they seek to monitor or control the YACCs' self-management. We identified three groups of YACCs: (a) those who focus on their health needs; (b) those who seek to balance their disease management with their need for sociability and belonging; and (c) those who deprioritize their illness in their everyday life in favor of peer acceptance. The multi-perspective approach to YACCs' and their peers' experiences with self-management on the one hand and referring to a range of chronic conditions on the other allows to analyze this issue in a complex and comprehensive way.</p>","PeriodicalId":48437,"journal":{"name":"Qualitative Health Research","volume":" ","pages":"916-931"},"PeriodicalIF":2.6,"publicationDate":"2025-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12117129/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142559160","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

To do this, we relied on semi-structured interviews with 24 people who self-reported having CHS. Participants had very positive perceptions of cannabis, which contributed to them contesting the diagnosis and resisting the treatment. They initially contested the diagnosis because they believed that cannabis was beneficial and helped with nausea, that claims about the harms of cannabis were part of a larger medical conspiracy to stigmatize it, and that they had different symptoms than those with CHS. They resisted treatment recommendations of abstinence and sought to continue using cannabis by trying new routes of administration, using only certain types of cannabis, reducing the amount or frequency of use, or substituting other substances.

Therapeutic patient education (TPE) proposed as part of a management strategy for this population provides unclear benefits regarding wounds healing or prevention of recurrence. The aim of the study was to develop a theory explaining how individuals with a VLU experience an individualized nurse-led TPE program regarding self-management strategies.

Self-monitoring of blood pressure and self-testing for proteinuria, key diagnostic tests for pre-eclampsia, are becoming commonplace in hypertensive pregnancies. While evidence exists on the acceptability and feasibility of self-monitoring blood pressure, evidence for self-testing for proteinuria in pregnancy is thin, with little knowledge of how it might affect the traditional structures of maternity care. As part of a diagnostic accuracy study on self-testing for proteinuria, pregnant people and healthcare professionals were recruited to a qualitative study to understand their experiences of, and attitudes to, self-testing. Multiple qualitative methods were used, including interviews, focus groups, and free text postcards. A discourse analysis was conducted to understand how self-testing might inform and reshape routine antenatal care. Analysis revealed a tension between the empowering concept of participatory surveillance, which pregnant people and healthcare professionals were broadly positive about, and the adjudications made by healthcare professionals about the candidacy, or <i>suitability</i>, of certain pregnant people to self-test. Candidacy is a framework for understanding what influences access to healthcare for socially disadvantaged groups, including professional judgments that impact access to interventions. While participatory surveillance was felt to have the potential to empower pregnant people in antenatal care, the loss of the traditional clinical gaze was disquieting for some, and pregnant people and healthcare professionals were reluctant to cede professional responsibility.</p>","PeriodicalId":48437,"journal":{"name":"Qualitative Health Research","volume":" ","pages":"863-875"},"PeriodicalIF":2.6,"publicationDate":"2025-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12117135/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142478029","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In all five countries, researchers created overviews of multiple vulnerability case descriptions situated in communities affected by the COVID-19 pandemic. Several recurring themes played a role in the CE process in the different settings: the challenges of finding, defining, and working with(in) communities; the role and position of researchers \"in action\"; stakeholders and power dynamics; timing of stakeholder involvement; translating qualitative data on vulnerability mechanisms into practical solutions; and sustainability and institutional integration.
