About The Study: In this large population-based study, patients with cancer had greater risk of SARS-CoV-2 infection and worse outcomes than patients without cancer, and the risk was highest for patients with hematologic cancer and any patients with cancer receiving active treatment. Triple vaccination was associated with lower risk of poor outcomes.

About JAMA Network Open: JAMA Network Open is an online-only open access general medical journal from the JAMA Network. On weekdays, the journal publishes peer-reviewed clinical research and commentary in more than 40 medical and health subject areas. Every article is free online from the day of publication.
About The Study: The findings of this study of 15,000 nursing homes suggest that before the Omicron variant wave, increasing staff vaccination rates was associated with lower incidence of COVID-19 cases and deaths among residents and staff in U.S. nursing homes. However, as newer, more infectious and transmissible variants of the virus emerged, the original 2-dose regimen of the COVID-19 vaccine as recommended in December 2020 was no longer associated with lower rates of adverse COVID-19 outcomes in nursing homes. Policy makers may want to consider longer-term policy options to increase the uptake of booster doses among staff in nursing homes.
Authors: Soham Sinha, M.S., of the University of Chicago, is the corresponding author.

About JAMA Health Forum: JAMA Health Forum is an international, peer-reviewed, online, open access journal that addresses health policy and strategies affecting medicine, health and health care. The journal publishes original research, evidence-based reports and opinion about national and global health policy; innovative approaches to health care delivery; and health care economics, access, quality, safety, equity and reform. Its distribution will be solely digital and all content will be freely available for anyone to read.
About The Study: The annual number of ransomware attacks on health care delivery organizations more than doubled from 2016 to 2021, exposing the personal health information of nearly 42 million patients, according to the results of this study of 374 ransomware attacks. During the study period, ransomware attacks exposed larger quantities of personal health information and grew more likely to affect large organizations with multiple facilities. Current monitoring/reporting efforts provide limited information and could be expanded to potentially yield a more complete view of how this growing form of cybercrime affects the delivery of health care.
Authors: Hannah T. Neprash, Ph.D., of the University of Minnesota in Minneapolis, is the corresponding author.

About The Study: In this study of 578 mental health apps, findings indicate that the current app marketplaces primarily offered basic features such as psychoeducation, goal tracking, and mindfulness but fewer innovative features such as biofeedback or specialized therapies. Privacy challenges remained common, and app popularity metrics provided little help in identifying apps with more privacy.

About The Study: In this study of U.S.-based obstetrics and gynecology clinical trials and publications between 2007 and 2020, American Indian or Alaskan Native, Asian, Black, and Latinx groups were underrepresented, but underrepresentation varied by race and ethnicity, subspecialty, and funder. Obstetric and family planning trials had the most diversity of the subspecialties. All subspecialties should strive for more equitably representative research.

About The Study: Non-Hispanic Black patients were less likely to undergo minimally invasive mitral valve surgery and more likely to die or experience a major complication than non-Hispanic white patients in this study of 103,000 patients. These findings suggest that efforts to reduce inequity in cardiovascular medicine may need to include increasing access to private insurance and high-volume surgeons.

About The Study: The findings of this study of faculty from 144 U.S. medical schools from 1990 to 2019 suggest that representation of women in academic medicine improved with time, while underrepresented groups in medicine overall experienced only modest increases with wide variability across institutions. Among underrepresented groups in medicine, the Hispanic population has lost representational ground.

About The Study: In this study of 38,000 homicides of children age 17 and younger from 1999 to 2020, homicide rates for some geographic and child demographic groups declined; however, rates recently increased across several subpopulations, with some racial and ethnic disparities persisting for more than 20 years. More targeted strategies are needed to (1) protect 6- to 10-year-olds, 11- to 17-year-olds, and children in certain geographic areas and (2) urgently address firearm violence, racism, and inequities at the root of youth violence.

About The Study: This study found racial and ethnic differences in firearm-related deaths of U.S. youths, with the highest overall burden and recent increase among Black youths. The large increase in firearm-related mortality between 2019 and 2020 may be related to the COVID-19 pandemic and social unrest; further follow-up is needed to see if this trend continues.

About The Study: The results of this study of 5.5 million Finnish residents show no evidence of an increased risk of sudden sensorineural hearing loss following COVID-19 vaccination. The study accounted for previous disease and other potential confounding factors. These results are based on diagnosis codes in specialized care but still need to be verified in settings that are capable of evaluating the degree of hearing loss. A large previous study found an increased risk for sudden sensorineural hearing loss following vaccination with the Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 vaccine.

On weekdays, the journal publishes peer-reviewed clinical research and commentary in more than 40 medical and health subject areas. Every article is free online from the day of publication.
About The Study: The results of this study suggest that among children ages 5 to 11, two doses of the Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 vaccine provided modest short-term protection against Omicron infection that was higher for those with prior infection; however, vaccine effectiveness waned after approximately three months in all children. A booster dose restored protection against Omicron and was maintained for at least three months. These findings highlight the continued importance of booster vaccination regardless of history of prior COVID-19.

On weekdays, the journal publishes peer-reviewed clinical research and commentary in more than 40 medical and health subject areas. Every article is free online from the day of publication.
About The Study: Onset of the COVID-19 pandemic was associated with increased hospitalizations with mental health diagnoses among adolescents, according to the results of this study that included eight children’s hospitals in the United States and France. Anxiety, depression, and suicidality or self-injury were the most prevalent conditions. The increase in hospitalizations was particularly notable for adolescent females. These findings support the need for greater resources within children’s hospitals to care for adolescents with mental health conditions during the pandemic and beyond.

About The Study: Researchers found in this survey study that adolescents were more likely to have received at least one COVID-19 vaccine dose if they had also received at least one human papillomavirus (HPV), meningococcal conjugate, and/or tetanus, diphtheria, and a cellular pertussis (Tdap) vaccine dose. Addressing hesitancy about routine childhood vaccinations may reduce hesitancy about COVID-19 vaccines.

About The Study: This review of 75 publications examining patient inequities within the field of ophthalmology revealed substantial research gaps regarding health inequities associated with the lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and queer (LGBTQ) community, race and ethnicity—namely, American Indian and Alaska Native, Asian, and Native Hawaiian and Other Pacific Islander individuals—and the role of telemedicine for rural and under-resourced areas. Future studies should examine barriers to clinical study and medical trainee recruitment as well as patient values and preference studies and investigate the implementation of telemedicine in under-resourced areas.
