HPV vaccine completion rates in adolescents age 13 to 15 years remain low at 59%. The HPV vaccine can prevent more than 90% of cases of cancer caused by HPV, including cervical, oropharyngeal, anal, penile, vulvar, and vaginal. HPV vaccine is very safe and effective, as demonstrated by numerous large-scale studies. Practice-based strategies can improve vaccination rates, such as having providers give a strong presumptive recommendation for the vaccine, using motivational interviewing for hesitant families, and using electronic health record reminders to prompt providers to offer it, among other interventions. Offering HPV vaccine starting at age 9 years is another evidence-based strategy to improve HPV vaccine completion rates, which has been shown to be acceptable to both providers and parents. <b>[<i>Pediatr Ann</i>. 2024;53(10):e372-e377.]</b>.</p>","PeriodicalId":54633,"journal":{"name":"Pediatric Annals","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.1,"publicationDate":"2024-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142395301","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

DEIJ efforts have been shown to have a strong influence in advancing health equity, yet these efforts tend to fall on a small group of providers, usually of historically marginalized or minority backgrounds (eg, race and ethnicity, gender identity, sexual orientation, religion). To combat this inequity, more research needs to be done to identify where the burden is falling and what strategies can be set in place to counteract this taxing imbalance. Providers should educate themselves on the anti-DEIJ legislation sweeping across the country, recogniz- ing the misinformation, and advocating for efforts pushing back against this movement. Providers can also advocate for ways their institution or practice can reduce the burden for historically marginalized providers by supporting recognition of DEIJ-related efforts in traditional promotional measures or taking on activities allowing for participation in scholarly work that will advance careers. <b>[<i>Pediatr Ann</i>. 2024;53(10):e354-e357.]</b>.</p>","PeriodicalId":54633,"journal":{"name":"Pediatric Annals","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.1,"publicationDate":"2024-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142395300","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

After all, collecting social history is a key component of a health care visit.

Estimates show that health outcomes are influenced more by factors outside of health care, such as our patients' SDOH. Addressing SDOH is fundamental for improving health and reducing longstanding inequities in health. While understanding that SDOH needs to be addressed through the continuum of pediatric care, this article will focus on SDOH in the pediatric inpatient setting. <b>[<i>Pediatr Ann</i>. 2024;53(9):e337-e344.]</b>.</p>","PeriodicalId":54633,"journal":{"name":"Pediatric Annals","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.1,"publicationDate":"2024-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142141811","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
