Social media can seclude a youth into limited set of beliefs, including affirmation for e-cigarette use. Internalizing problems like depression may be due to overuse of social media, and youth with depressive symptoms are more likely to use e-cigarettes to cope. National Youth Tobacco Survey (NYTS) 2023 data was used (n = 18 143) in a cross-sectional design. Ever e-cigarette use was the binary (Y/N) dependent variable. Independent variable, social media use, was categorized as \"never,\" \"nondaily,\" \"daily.\" Mediator variable, presence of recent depression was binary (Y/N). Survey weight adjusted logistic regression and path analysis were employed to identify direct and indirect effects (mediated via recent depression) of social media use on ever e-cigarette use. Social media use (nondaily, aOR = 1.58, <i>P</i> = .032; daily, aOR = 1.91, <i>P</i> < .001; both vs never) and recent depression (yes vs no, aOR = 2.00, <i>P</i> < .001) were independently associated with ever e-cigarette use. In the path analysis, likelihood of social media use (nondaily, aOR = 1.58, <i>P</i> = .037; daily, aOR = 1.88, <i>P</i> < .001; both vs never) and depression (yes vs no, aOR = 1.99, <i>P</i> < .001) being associated with e-cigarette use remained similar to findings of logistic regression. In the mediation analysis, direct effect estimates (nondaily, aOR = 1.52, <i>P</i> = .065; daily, aOR = 1.84, <i>P</i> < .001; both vs never) were consistent with the path analysis results.

This qualitative study aims to explore perceptions, knowledge, barriers, and implementation strategies related to pre-pregnancy health screening among WRA who utilize PHC. In-depth interviews were conducted on 21 informants recruited by the purposive method from the Primary Health Center (PHC) in Denpasar City, Bali, Indonesia. Thematic analysis is used to identify the main themes of the transcribed data. Four main themes emerged that are (1) perceptions of pre-pregnancy screening vary from WRA, (2) knowledge levels that tend to be low about PCC, (3) the existence of barriers to access to services, social stigma and screening time constraints, and (4) the integration of screening services as a strategy to increase service coverage. These findings conclude that negative perceptions, low levels of knowledge and access barriers, social stigma and time constraints are related to the low utilization of preconception health screening.

This study investigated how social and behavioral factors-family monthly income, education, and adherence to prescribed treatment-relate to the usual source of care and patient satisfaction. A cross-sectional survey was conducted among 374 adults in Sirajganj district. Propensity scores were estimated and analyzed using 1:1 nearest-neighbor matching (caliper 0.20) and inverse probability of treatment weighting (IPTW). We used both propensity score matching (PSM) and inverse probability of treatment weighting (IPTW) to reduce confounding and to check the robustness of the estimated associations. Primary outcomes were the usual treatment source and satisfaction with that source; exposures included income, education, and adherence. Adjusted odds ratios (AORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CI) were derived from matched and weighted logistic models. Prespecified interactions and sensitivity analyses assessed robustness. Higher family income strongly predicted use of non-government providers (matching AOR 8.50; weighted AOR 10.11) but showed no significant association with satisfaction. Adherence to prescribed treatment was associated with lower use of non-government care (matching AOR 0.35) and greater satisfaction (matching AOR 3.50), with comparable IPTW estimates. Education above the primary level was not related to provider type but was linked to lower satisfaction (matching AOR 0.30). The positive association between adherence and satisfaction persisted across income and education strata. Sensitivity analyses yielded similar findings. In rural Bangladesh, higher income primarily drives private-sector care use; treatment adherence predicts higher satisfaction and reduced private use; and higher education is associated with lower reported satisfaction.

This study therefore examines whether subjective well-being mediates the relationship between relative deprivation and health among Chinese adults. This cross-sectional study analyzed 5604 adults aged ≥ 18 using data from the 2023 Chinese General Social Survey (CGSS) conducted in China. After computing descriptive statistics and correlations, stepwise regression models tested whether subjective well-being mediated the relationship between relative deprivation and health. Indirect effects were estimated using bias-corrected bootstrap procedures (5000 replications). Urban-rural stratification examined geographic heterogeneity in mediation pathways, while robustness checks included ordered logit models and a sensitivity analysis that dichotomized subjective well-being into low and high categories. STATA 18.0 was used throughout. The results indicated that relative deprivation demonstrated a significant negative association with Chinese adults' health. Furthermore, subjective well-being was independently associated with better health outcomes. Mediation analysis revealed that subjective well-being significantly mediated 20.5% of the total effect between relative deprivation and health. Regional stratification showed that the indirect pathway through subjective well-being did not differ significantly between urban and rural residents, whereas the direct effect of relative deprivation on health was significantly stronger among rural residents. These findings highlight the potential role of subjective well-being as a psychological mechanism linking perceived relative deprivation to health. While this pathway appears comparable across urban and rural contexts, the association between relative deprivation and health is stronger among rural residents.

Electronic health record (EHR) alerts may improve adherence; however, real-world uptake depends on organizational and specialty-level determinants.MethodsProspective case study conducted between August 2023 and April 2025. A non-interruptive EHR alert was triggered by predefined IC-related laboratory orders and antimicrobial prescriptions. Crucially, the alert was only fired if HIV serology was not already requested, meaning that the accepted tests represented true additional screening. Clinicians could accept or decline testing with a single click. Acceptance patterns were analyzed by age group, clinical service, weekday versus weekend, and diurnal versus nocturnal shifts. The analysis employed descriptive stratification to evaluate confounding between patient age and clinical service volume.ResultsAmong 3,240 alert activations, 523 were accepted (16.1%), resulting in 398 completed tests. Eight patients tested positive (2.01%), including four actionable cases (1.01%). Two declined alerts were followed by subsequent diagnoses of advanced HIV infection. The apparent lower uptake in younger patients was service-level confounded by the concentration of alerts within gynecology/obstetrics (53.7% of all alerts in 18-37-year-olds; global gynecology uptake 3.5%). Outside gynecology, baseline acceptance was consistently higher (15-38%) across all age categories, demonstrating that the apparent age gradient was profoundly confounded by service distribution.ConclusionApparent age-related differences in alert uptake were attenuated after stratification by service distribution rather than intrinsic clinician bias regarding patient age.
