A Qualitative Exploration of Post‐Injury Challenges and the Potential Role of the PTSD Coach Mobile Application to Improve Recovery Among Acutely Injured Patients
OBJECTIVE: Digital interventions designed to prevent development of chronic pain and comorbid mental health symptoms, specifically targeting the acute injury recovery period, are in the early stages of development. The evidence-based PTSD Coach mobile application is a free resource offering cognitive-behavioral interventions to self-manage posttraumatic symptoms; it is used widely in varied populations, and it is feasible and acceptable to injure…
Moving Beyond Unintended Pregnancy
Sexual and reproductive health (SRH) research, programming, policy, and services have long relied on the narrow paradigm of “pregnancy intendedness and planning,” including its “unintended pregnancy” measure. This framework is limited and problematic, overlooking diverse perspectives on pregnancy, structural factors, and non‐parenting outcomes such as abortion and adoption. In response, we developed the Self‐Assessed Pregnancy Acceptability (SAPA…
Donation-related decision-making among young adult Black and Hispanic members of a hematopoietic stem cell donor registry
Scarcity of donors for diverse patients drives Black/Hispanic donor motivation. • Black and Hispanic participants report experiencing medical mistrust. • Donor registration often happens without discussions with parents/families. • Some donors and families harbor misconceptions about the donation process. • Balancing school, work, and family poses challenges to donor participation

Black Fathers’ Perspectives About Early Childhood Adversity and Toxic Stress
Black children in the United States disproportionately experience early childhood adversity and toxic stress, which can lead to long-term negative physical and mental health outcomes. Mothers are traditionally enrolled in intervention programs to help address this while fathers typically are not. This study assessed Black fathers’ perspectives about early childhood adversity and toxic stress to begin to understand this public health concern throu…

The Global Task Force for Chronic Pain in People with HIV (PWH)
Chronic pain is a common comorbidity in people with HIV (PWH), with prevalence estimates of 25-85%. Research in this area is growing, but significant gaps remain. A Global Task Force of HIV experts was organized to brainstorm a scientific agenda and identify measurement domains critical to advancing research in this field. Experts were identified through literature searches and snowball sampling. Two online questionnaires were developed by Task F…
Motives and risk perceptions of participants in a phase 1 trial for Hepatitis C Virus investigational therapy in pregnancy
Limited research has been done among pregnant people participating in investigational drug trials. To enhance the ethical understanding of pregnant people’s perspectives on research participation, we sought to describe motives and risk perceptions of participants in a phase 1 trial of ledipasvir/sofosbuvir (LDV/SOF) treatment for chronic Hepatitis C virus (HCV) during pregnancy. Pregnant people with chronic HCV infection enrolled in an open-label…
“How much desire should I have?”
We conducted 15 interviews and 3 focus groups (total N = 36) among women 60 and older with low libido to better understand the role that it plays in their lives. Interviews and focus groups were led by facilitators using open-ended questions. A codebook was developed, then codes were assigned to all data. We identified three themes. First, women reported that sex was an important aspect of their lives. Second, women desired to know what was "norm…
