Despite known links to liver disease and cancer, few adults report receiving counseling on alcohol-related risks from health care professionals. Authors of this cross-sectional, population-based study assessed the prevalence of alcohol-related counseling among United States adults and identified sociodemographic and behavioral factors associated with receiving such advice.Methods: Data were drawn from the 2022 Health Information National Trends Survey, a nationally representative sample of United States adults. The primary outcome was whether respondents reported receiving information from a health care professional about the negative health risks of alcohol use, including specific negative health consequences. Survey-weighted univariate, bivariate, and multivariable logistic regression analyses were used to identify predictors of receiving counseling.Results: Only 26.1% of respondents reported receiving alcohol-related counseling, and just 10.9% specifically were informed about liver disease. Multivariable analysis showed higher odds of counseling among adults aged 18-34 (OR = 2.43; 95% CI, 1.84-3.21), non-Hispanic Black respondents (OR = 1.45; 95% CI, 1.20-1.75), those with income under $20,000 (OR = 1.27; 95% CI, 1.02-1.59), and individuals consuming more than one alcoholic drink per week (OR = 1.40; 95% CI, 1.22-1.61). Lower odds were found among women (OR = 0.67; 95% CI, 0.59-0.77), and those worried about cancer (OR = 0.81; 95% CI, 0.67-0.96).Conclusions: Findings highlight important gaps and disparities in alcohol-related counseling. Standardized interventions and improved outreach are needed to align prevention efforts with patient risk.","PeriodicalId":94121,"journal":{"name":"Kansas journal of medicine","volume":"18 5","pages":"104-110"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-10-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12539763/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145350902","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Asian American and Pacific Islander (AAPI) populations have higher-than-average rates of LEP and may be more vulnerable to adverse outcomes. The authors of this study examined differences in risk factors, medical care, and delivery outcomes between AAPI individuals who gave birth and spoke English at home versus those who spoke an AAPI language at home.Methods: De-identified birth and death certificate data from January 1, 2005, to December 31, 2018, were obtained from the Kansas Department of Health and Environment (N = 17,067). Risk factors, medical care, and delivery outcomes were compared between AAPI language speakers and English speakers using likelihood chi-square and Fisher exact tests.Results: Non-English speakers initiated prenatal care later (p <0.0001) and received less adequate prenatal care (p <0.0001). They also had higher rates of forceps- and vacuum-assisted deliveries (p <0.0001), and third- or fourth-degree perineal lacerations (p <0.0001) compared with English speakers. Neonatal outcomes largely were similar between groups.Conclusions: Within the AAPI community in Kansas, speakers of AAPI languages experienced poorer maternal delivery outcomes, specifically higher rates of assisted deliveries and severe perineal lacerations, compared with English speakers. These disparities may reflect patient-provider language discordance, which can limit patient autonomy and influence decision-making in urgent or emergent situations, as well as broader structural determinants of health.","PeriodicalId":94121,"journal":{"name":"Kansas journal of medicine","volume":"18 5","pages":"99-103"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-10-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12539766/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145350906","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Most youth who attempt suicide have underlying mental health disorders, which account for approximately 10% of pediatric hospitalizations. Researchers hypothesized that children with chronic suicidality (CS) have more suicide-related risk factors, attempt suicide with greater lethality, and have more pre-existing mental health diagnoses compared to those without chronic suicidality (Non-CS).Methods: The study team reviewed pediatric hospitalizations related to suicide at Wesley Medical Center from 2016 to 2021. CS was defined as a reported history of, or prior hospitalization for, suicide-related behavior. The severity of suicidal ideation/behavior and actual lethality or medical damage was measured using the Columbia-Suicide Severity Rating Scale (C-SSRS).Results: Of 375 patients, 253 were classified as CS and 122 as Non-CS. Age and race distributions were similar between groups. Females were more likely to have CS (p = 0.0006). Patients with CS were more often admitted for suicide attempts rather than non-suicidal self-injury (p = 0.0171). No significant differences were found in method or lethality of attempts.Patients with CS experienced more peer stress, abuse, legal problems, and job-related issues (all p <0.05). No differences were observed in other stressors. CS patients had more prior mental health treatment (p <0.0001) and were more frequently discharged to inpatient mental health care (p <0.0001).Conclusions: Female gender and psychosocial stressors were associated with increased risk of chronic suicidality in youth.

The authors of this study aimed to compare polyethylene insert thickness in robotic-assisted TKA versus conventional manual TKA.Methods: The authors conducted a cross-sectional study on patients with end-stage primary knee osteoarthritis who underwent TKA by a single fellowship-trained orthopedic surgeon over a two-year period. Patients with post-traumatic or inflammatory arthropathy or those undergoing revision arthroplasty were excluded. Demographics, implant manufacturer and type, and polyethylene insert thickness were recorded in an electronic database. Bivariate analyses, including t-tests, Mann-Whitney U tests, and Fisher's exact tests were used to compare robotic-assisted and manual TKA procedures.Results: Data from 222 patients were analyzed, with 111 in each group.

In the Midwest, several legislative efforts have included restrictions on both abortion and gender-affirming care. Clinics that provide abortion services sometimes offer gender-affirming care. Given this intersection, recent laws restricting abortion may have unintended consequences for access to gender-affirming care in the Midwest.Methods: Authors of this retrospective study analyzed medical records of patients seen at a Midwestern health center. We included patients aged 18 or older who attended a new patient visit at either the gender diversity clinic (GDC) or the general gynecology (GYN) clinic between July 1, 2021 and June 30, 2023. We used generalized estimating equations to assess changes in wait times and distance traveled pre- vs. post-Dobbs. Differences in new patient volume were analyzed using Poisson regression.Results: We reviewed 5,260 charts, 4,552 from the GYN clinic and 708 from the GDC. Following Dobbs, the GYN clinic experienced a 6% increase in new patients, while the GDC saw a 21% increase (p <0.001). The average wait time for a GYN appointment increased by two days, whereas the wait time for GDC appointments decreased by 21 days. The average distance traveled by new GYN patients decreased by 6.3 miles (p <0.001), while distance for GDC patients increased by 2.5 miles (p = 0.738).Conclusions: Patients continue to seek gender-affirming care in the post-Dobbs landscape.
