Between Protection and Coercion
Court-involved therapy has emerged as a mechanism for connecting commercially sexually exploited youth to mental health services within juvenile justice systems, yet questions persist about how such models can center survivor autonomy, prevent retraumatization, and engage families meaningfully. This qualitative study examined survivor and multidisciplinary stakeholder perspectives on court-involved therapy for commercially sexually exploited yout…
Intimate Partner Violence Among LGBTQ+ Adults in Latin America and the Caribbean
We present the first systematic review and meta-analysis of the literature on intimate partner violence (IPV) among LGBTQ+ adults in Latin America and the Caribbean (LAC). Of 1,234 articles, 22 met inclusion criteria, and data were extracted for 4 key research areas: prevalence, measurement, risk and protective factors, and interventions. LGBTQ+ adults in LAC experience IPV at similar or higher rates than those documented among cisgender heterose…

Addressing non-communicable disease management during disasters in the US Virgin Islands
Introduction: Extreme weather events, like hurricanes Irma and Maria, have disproportionately impacted individuals with non-communicable diseases (NCDs) in the U.S. Virgin Islands (USVI), exacerbating health disparities due to healthcare disruptions. The USVI and other Caribbean islands face increased morbidity and mortality from NCDs from rising risk factors and lack of improving in quality of care. This study explores the experiences of individ…
Flying under and through the radar
Femicide in the United States
“And then the person sort of just drops off the radar…”
Introduction: Hospitals and community-based organizations (CBOs) provide the service-base for survivors of intimate partner violence (IPV), particularly those in acute crisis. Both settings face discrete challenges in meeting survivors' needs. In hospitals these challenges include the pressures of a fast-paced work setting, and a lack of trauma-informed and survivor-centered care. Connections to community care are often unmeasured, with relativel…

Implementing and monitoring the right to health in breast cancer
We propose a set of indicators as a guide for health policy experts seeking to design national cancer plans that are based on a human rights-based approach to health, and for cancer specialists aiming to implement principles of the right to health in their practice. The 54 indicators selected may be used in High-Income Countries, or member states of the OECD who also have signed the International Covenant on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights t…
Covid gave him an opportunity to tighten the reins around my throat”
These findings suggest COVID-19 movement restrictions and social distancing measures amplify IPV and experiences of trauma due to new or exacerbated relationship challenges. Further, results highlight how partners cited COVID-19 movement restrictions to justify methods of coercive control. Public health professionals engaged in pandemic preparedness must give serious consideration to how social distancing measures may amplify trauma in those expe…

“Post- Roe ” Abortion Policy Context Heightens the Imperative for Multilevel, Comprehensive, Integrated Health Education
The exceptionalism of abortion in public health education, due to social stigma, politicization, and lack of training, contributes to misinformation, policies unjustified by rigorous science, lack of access to person-centered health care, and systemic pregnancy-related inequities. Now that abortion access has vanished for large portions of the United States, following the Supreme Court decision in Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization ( JW…

Social comorbidities? A qualitative study mapping syndemic theory onto gender-based violence and co-occurring social phenomena among Brazilian women
Our results suggest that using a syndemic framework to understand IPV in the context of social comorbidities could be useful for understanding how these social phenomena may mutually reinforce each other and cause adverse interactions. Similar applications across other social phenomena may also be possible

The Lives of Mentally Retarded People
Making the Grade
We propose a methodology to evaluate fulfillment of the human right to health, using eight health indicators as proxies. Each health indicator was plotted against purchasing power parity US dollars gross domestic product (GDP)/capita to control for wealth. Generalized linear regression was used to derive a "best fit" curve. An "expected" value for each variable was calculated based on the GDP/capita of each country. The observed (reported) value …
The relationship between the Maria da Penha Law and intimate partner violence in two Brazilian states
The Maria da Penha Law increased attention and resources for VAW response and prevention; however, its true impact remains unmeasured. Our data suggest a need for regular, systematic collection of comparable population-based data to accurately estimate the true prevalence of IPV in Brazil. Furthermore, such data may inform policy and program planning to address specific needs across diverse settings including rural and urban communities. If routi…
