To assess changes in adolescent immunization rates among enrollees in a Louisiana Medicaid managed care organization from 2019 through 2023 and examine sociodemographic differences. Methods. Using Louisiana's immunization information system and Healthcare Effectiveness Data and Information Set (HEDIS) specifications, we calculated human papillomavirus, meningococcal, tetanus-diphtheria-acellular pertussis, and combined-series immunization rates and compared demographic trends from 2020 to 2023. Results. Combined-series rates decreased from 45.6% in 2020 to 38.0% in 2022, then partially recovered to 42.6% in 2023. Trends were broadly similar by race and sex. Rural adolescents had consistently lower rates and a larger decrease, from 38.4% to 28.8%, followed by recovery to 37.2%. Spanish-speaking families maintained substantially higher rates and experienced a smaller decrease, from 66.9% in 2020 to 61.9% in 2022. Conclusions. Adolescent immunization rates decreased during the COVID-19 pandemic and had not fully recovered by 2023, with persistent rural disparities. Public Health Implications. Recovery efforts should prioritize rural Medicaid populations and identify practices associated with sustained coverage among Spanish-speaking families. (Am J Public Health.

Through this program, designated communities develop community emissions reduction programs (CERPs) in collaboration with local air districts and community members. While previous evaluations of AB 617 have focused on governance or individual case studies, limited evidence exists on how CERP strategies are implemented across communities and which approaches support public health goals. We present a comparative analysis of CERP strategies across 9 diverse AB 617 communities. Using a mixed-methods approach, we categorized more than 800 strategies through text analysis and qualitative coding into 25 comparable strategy groups. We evaluated implementation across 3 criteria-capacity for community health protection, adoption pathway, and ease of implementation-with funding expenditures used as a proxy for progress. Results show substantial diversity in strategy adoption, with success most strongly associated with creative program development, interagency coordination, and community capacity. These success stories provide insights for communities implementing CERPs and developing future local CERPs. (Am J Public Health.

To examine secular trends in mortality among Australians in same-sex and different-sex relationships. Methods. Using Australian Census-linked mortality records (2011-2023), I used Cox proportional hazard models to estimate all-cause and external-cause mortality risk among adults in same-sex relationships (n = 54 529) and different-sex relationships (n = 7 923 328), separately by sex. Inverse probability weights balanced comparators on age, educational attainment, and household income. I stratified results into periods before and after Australia's 2017 legalization of same-sex marriage. Results. Compared with those in different-sex relationships, women and men in same-sex relationships experienced elevated all-cause mortality risk (hazard ratio [HR] = 1.25; 95% confidence interval [CI] = 1.15, 1.35 and HR = 1.24; 95% CI = 1.16, 1.31, respectively) and external-cause mortality risk (HR = 2.56; 95% CI = 2.01, 3.26 and HR = 1.96; 95% CI = 1.64, 2.71, respectively). Inequalities in external-cause mortality risk were significantly elevated in both periods before and following marriage equality. (HR = 3.40 and 2.04 in the pre- and postreform periods, respectively, among women in same-sex relationships, and HR = 2.01 and 1.93, respectively, among men in same-sex relationships). Conclusions. Australians in same-sex relationships experienced elevated mortality risk relative to those in different-sex relationships, with inequalities persisting after marriage equality. Routine collection of sexual orientation in the Australian Census would support ongoing monitoring of these disparities. (Am J Public Health.
