About The Study: This study that included 173 Women’s National Basketball Association athletes provides reference electrocardiographic (ECG) data for elite female basketball athletes. International criteria–defined training-related findings were common, whereas abnormal ECG findings were rare in this athlete group. These reference data may assist basketball programs and health care professionals using ECGs in screening for female athletes and may be used as a stimulus for future female-specific ECG inquiries.

About The Study: Researchers documented a high burden of major depressive episode and posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) among witnesses and survivors of the Las Vegas mass violence incident in 2017. The prevalence of major depressive episode and PTSD was considerably higher in this population than in previous studies on mass violence incidents. Consistent with prior literature, this study showed that physical injury and low social support were associated with higher risk for major depressive episode and PTSD.

About The Study: The findings of this study indicate that childhood lead exposure from drinking water is widespread in Chicago, and racial inequities are present in both testing rates and exposure levels. Machine learning may assist in preliminary screening for lead exposure, and efforts to remediate the effects of environmental racism should involve improving outreach for and access to lead testing services.

USPSTF Statement on Primary Care Interventions to Prevent Child Maltreatment
JAMA
EMBARGOED FOR RELEASE: 11 A.M. (ET), TUESDAY, MARCH 19, 2024
Media advisory: To contact the U.S. Preventive Services Task Force, email the Media Coordinator at Newsroom@USPSTF.net or call 301-951-9203. The full report and related articles are linked to this news release.
Embed this link to provide your readers free access to the full-text article This link will be live at the embargo time and all USPSTF articles remain free indefinitely https://jamanetwork.com/journals/jama/fullarticle/10.1001/jama.2024.1869?guestAccessKey=e243a040-3397-4402-a7cd-00e2fe9f3454&utm_source=For_The_Media&utm_medium=referral&utm_campaign=ftm_links&utm_content=tfl&utm_term=031924
Bottom Line: The U.S. Preventive Services Task Force (USPSTF) concludes that the current evidence is insufficient to assess the balance of benefits and harms of primary care interventions to prevent child maltreatment. Child maltreatment, which includes child abuse and neglect, can have profound effects on health, development, survival, and well-being throughout childhood and adulthood. The prevalence of child maltreatment in the U.S. is uncertain and likely underestimated. In 2021, an estimated 600,000 children were identified by Child Protective Services as experiencing abuse or neglect and an estimated 1,820 children died of abuse and neglect. The USPSTF routinely makes recommendations about the effectiveness of preventive care services and this recommendation is consistent with the previous 2018 recommendation statement.

About The Study: In this exploratory study, there were no significant differences between individuals reporting anomalous health incidents and matched control participants with respect to most clinical, research, and biomarker measures, except for objective and self-reported measures of imbalance and symptoms of fatigue, posttraumatic stress, and depression. This study did not replicate the findings of previous studies, although differences in the populations included and the timing of assessments limit direct comparisons. Since 2015, U.S. government and related personnel have reported dizziness, pain, visual problems, and cognitive dysfunction after experiencing intrusive sounds and head pressure. The U.S. government has labeled these anomalous health incidents.

About The Study: The findings of this study of 4,515 adolescents suggest that in-person schooling and several coping behaviors (caring for one’s body, exercising, and engaging in healthy behaviors) were associated with significantly higher positive affect and lower perceived stress during the COVID-19 pandemic among adolescents with high adverse childhood experiences (ACEs). Adolescents with high ACEs demonstrated especially greater mental health scores when they reported in-person schooling. Future studies should build on these findings to identify clinical and school-based mental health protective factors for adolescents with high ACE risk.

About The Study: The findings of this study of 50 discharge summaries suggest that large language models can be used to translate discharge summaries into patient-friendly language and formats that are significantly more readable and understandable than discharge summaries as they appear in electronic health records. However, implementation will require improvements in accuracy, completeness, and safety. Given the safety concerns, initial implementation will require physician review.

About The Study: Although cigarettes remained the dominant product sold during the study period (2018-2022), their market share decreased, leading to a more diverse marketplace at a range of price points. The fastest growing and only price-stable products were modern oral nicotine (e.g., nicotine pouches). The most expensive products were electronic nicotine delivery systems, yet prices decreased in 2019, coinciding with the emergence of cheap, flavored disposable vapes. Cigars, which are largely flavored, remained the cheapest product, driven by low cost and small pack sizes, which is concerning given that flavored products and low prices are appealing to young people.
Authors: Ollie Ganz, Dr.P.H., M.S.P.H., of the Rutgers Institute for Nicotine and Tobacco Studies in New Brunswick, New Jersey, is the corresponding author.

About The Study: The findings of this study suggest that pediatric atopic dermatitis (AD) was generally associated with greater odds of reported difficulties in learning and memory. However, this association was primarily limited to children with neurodevelopmental comorbidities, such as attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder or learning disabilities. These results may improve the risk stratification of children with AD for cognitive impairments and suggest that evaluation for cognitive difficulties should be prioritized among children with AD and neurodevelopmental disorders.

About The Study: This study found a negative association between screen time and measures of parent-child talk when children are 12 to 36 months of age. For every additional minute of screen time, children heard fewer adult words, spoke fewer vocalizations, and engaged in fewer back-and-forth interactions. Interventions aiming to promote early use of language should include support to manage screen time.
