Examining Missed Healthcare Appointments (No-Shows) in a Rural-Serving Federally Qualified Community Health Center in the United States
To examine demographic and geographic factors associated with missed healthcare appointments ("no-shows") in a rural-serving federally qualified community health center in the United States, this retrospective cross-sectional study was conducted. Stratified descriptive statistics and negative binomial regression assessed associations with age, gender, and residential location. After adjustment, patients in an area anonymized as Region C had about…
Unveiling sub-populations in critical care settings
Background: Disease presentation and progression can vary greatly in heterogeneous diseases, such as COVID-19, with variability in patient outcomes, even within the hospital setting. This variability underscores the need for tailored treatment approaches based on distinct clinical subgroups. Objectives: This study aimed to identify COVID-19 patient subgroups with unique clinical characteristics using real-world data (RWD) from electronic health r…
Use of telehealth did not mitigate persistent disparities in prenatal care access among American Indian women in North Dakota
BACKGROUND: In North Dakota (ND), American Indian (AI) women face a persistent disparity in prenatal care (PNC) access compared to other women. During the COVID pandemic, the expansion of telehealth emerged as a potential solution to disparate access to health care. We examined whether telehealth use mitigated disparities in PNC in ND. METHODS: Data were drawn from the 2020 to 2021 ND Pregnancy Risk Assessment Monitoring System (weighted n = 10,1…
Adverse childhood experiences and preventive health care among rural US children
PURPOSE: Rural-residing children have poor access to preventive health care due to geographic and socioeconomic issues, yet the role of adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) in preventive care for rural children has been understudied. It is hypothesized that among rural-residing children, those with ≥1 ACE will have lower utilization of preventive health care, with differences by sex. METHODS: Data for 425 (weighted n = 3,949,102) children (aged 9…
Impact of Breastfeeding Barriers on Racial/Ethnic Disparities in Breastfeeding Outcomes in North Dakota

Exposure to Environmental Chemicals and Infertility Among US Reproductive-Aged Women
Environmental chemical exposure has been rising over the past few decades but its impact on fertility remains uncertain. We assessed exposures to 23 common chemicals across a range of sociodemographic characteristics and their relationship with self-reported infertility. The analytic sample was non-pregnant women aged 18-49 years without a history of hysterectomy or oophorectomy (n = 2579) from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey…
Examining the Role of Interpersonal Violence in Racial Disparities in Breastfeeding in North Dakota (ND PRAMS 2017–2019)
Interpersonal violence does not explain the disparity in breastfeeding in ND. Considering cultural ties to the tradition of breastfeeding and the role of colonization may provide a better understanding of breastfeeding among AI populations
Roles of Income and Acculturation in the Hispanic Paradox
Disparities in early prenatal care and barriers to access among American Indian and white women in North Dakota
PURPOSE: American Indians/Alaska Natives (AI/AN) have received minimal attention in research on determinants of prenatal care access. We sought to gain an understanding of structural and sociocultural determinants of prenatal care access among AI/AN and White women in North Dakota (ND). METHODS: Data were drawn from the 2017 to 2018 North Dakota Pregnancy Risk Assessment Monitoring System (n = 1,166). Late prenatal care was assessed with 2 variab…

A Modern Genotoxicity Testing Paradigm
Higher-throughput, mode-of-action-based assays provide a valuable approach to expedite chemical evaluation for human health risk assessment. In this study, we combined the high-throughput alkaline DNA damage-sensing CometChip ® assay with the TGx-DDI transcriptomic biomarker (DDI = DNA damage-inducing) using high-throughput TempO-Seq ® , as an integrated genotoxicity testing approach. We used metabolically competent differentiated human HepaRGTM …
Air Pollution Exposure Monitoring among Pregnant Women with and without Asthma
Background : We monitored exposure to fine particulates (PM 2.5 ), ozone, nitrogen dioxide (NO 2 ), and ambient temperature for pregnant women with and without asthma. Methods : Women ( n = 40) from the Breathe-Well-Being, Environment, Lifestyle, and Lung Function Study (2015-2018) were enrolled during pregnancy and monitored for 2-4 days. Daily pollutants were measured using personal air monitors, indoor air monitors, and nearest Environmental P…
Faith-based alcohol treatment in England and Wales
While the historical importance of religion in alcohol treatment is well known, the size, scope and significance of contemporary activities remain unclear. Here we begin to address this gap in knowledge by presenting results from a mixed methods study of faith-based alcohol treatment in England and Wales. The paper begins by mapping location, religious affiliation, organisational structure and service provision. We then discuss evidence regarding…

Air Pollution and Preterm Birth
Since the 2000s, air pollution has generally continued to decrease in the U.S. To investigate preterm birth (PTB) risk associated with air pollutants in two consecutive pregnancies, we estimated exposures using modified Community Multiscale Air Quality models linked to the NICHD Consecutive Pregnancy Study. Electronic medical records for delivery admissions were available for 50,005 women with singleton births in 20 Utah-based hospitals between 2…
Charles de Gaulle
De Gaulle is primarily remembered as the leader of ‘Free France’ between 1940 and 1945, as well as for his time as President of the Fourth and Fifth Republics. This paper explores some of the sources of his political belief system, using his military writings of the 1920s and 1930s before he became a celebrated politician. It suggests that his political views can only be understood as being influenced by his experiences as a soldier and his refle…

Experimental Combat-Stress Model in Rats
Developmental defects of enamel-stress histomarker rings (accentuated striae) may be a potential measure of diminished vagal tone in research on extreme stress such as exposure to combat. To develop an animal model of this measure, we examined the enamel of rat incisors which erupt continuously. We examined incisors from 15 stressed-colony rats and 7 control-group rats for these histomarkers using the Visible Burrow System (VBS). VBS was develope…
France and the Origins of the United Nations, 1944–1945
During their long exile during 1940–1944, various components of the “Free French” were largely kept out of the “Post-War Planning” process that took place in the American State Department. They perceived this absence as a major, and often deliberate, humiliation that made the circumstances of their exile all the more exasperating. Charles de Gaulle was seen by the “Anglo–Saxon” Allies as a figure of dubious worth and usefulness, and Washington’s …
Resistant actors, resistant landscapes? A historical political ecology of a forested conservation object in exurban southeastern Pennsylvania
Exurban political ecologists (ExPE) are interested in landscape contestations, particularly where material–cultural entanglements play out through land-use decision-making processes. ExPE research highlights the role in-migrants and long-time residents play in the balance between conservation and development of landscapes, often highlighting informal and formal advocacy that shapes specific outcomes. These entanglements often appear to hinge on a…

A Compromised Fourth Estate
The suggestion that the activities of public relations professionals and news agencies help to shape news content in national and local news media is increasingly commonplace among journalists, academics and public relations professionals. The findings from this study provide substantive empirical evidence to support such claims. The study analyses the domestic news content of UK national “quality” newspapers (2207 items in the Guardian, The Time…

The Priority View Bites the Dust
This article distinguishes between a telic and a deontic version of Derek Parfit's influential Priority View. Employing the distinction, it shows that the existence of variations in how intrapersonal and interpersonal conflicts should be resolved fails to provide a compelling case in favour of relational egalitarianism and against all pure versions of the Priority View. In addition, the article argues that those variations are better understood a…

Norman Angell and His French Contemporaries, 1905–1914
On the occasion of the Centenary of the publication of Norman Angell's The Great Illusion, this article explores the extent to which Angell was influenced by his French contemporaries. He was living in France for the ten years previous to the book's publication and working as a newspaper editor and commentator. The main currents of French political thinking of that period are explored. The main conclusion reached is that Angell had little impact …
Reconstruction
Reconstruction and imperialism are often portrayed either as opposites or necessary collaborators in status quo states' repression of the lesser mortals of our international system. This article examines these debates in the light of what is happening in Iraq and Afghanistan and argues that the two concepts should rather be seen as inevitable if uneasy bedfellows in a world where simple denunciations or weary acceptations of “reality” are simply …
Ethnic Enclaves and Pregnancy and Behavior Outcomes Among Asian/Pacific Islanders in the USA
Waiting for Monsieur Bergson
This analysis follows upon an article that previously was published in Diplomacy and Statecraft (2010) on Norman Angell's relationship with French thinking and political life. These two papers suggest international historians should look much more widely for our sources of understanding the policy options of the Powers in the early twentieth century than the habitual diplomatic documents and the like. They also aim to explore how ideas become pol…
Sir John Bradbury and the Reparations Commission, 1920-25
This article looks at a neglected episode during the work of the Reparations Commission of 1920-25 leading up to the Dawes Plan of 1924, when the British delegate to the Commission, Sir John Bradbury, drew up a plan to reschedule German reparation payments in an attempt to take the venom out of the debate over these payments. It takes as its documentary basis the previously unpublished papers of Sir John in his role as Britain's representative on…

The Revisionist Difference Principle
John Rawls's famous difference principle is capable of at least four distinct statements, each of which occurs in A Theory of Justice. According to what I shall term the Crude Principle it is a necessary and sufficient condition for the justice of an institutional scheme which expands social and economic inequality that, subject to the satisfaction of more weighty principles, it increases the level of advantage of the least advantaged. Expressing…

France and the New World Order, 1940–1947
Using a number of archive sources concentrating on the Occupation years and the period just after the Liberation, this article throws light on the contribution of France to the ‘New World Order’, a concept normally thought of as ‘Anglo-Saxon’ or ‘Anglo-American’. Even in defeat, those looking forward to the reconstruction of France in the postwar period considered a number of approaches as to how a French state-oriented system would work in a wor…

The impact of online lecture recordings on student performance
The use of online lecture recordings as a supplement to physical lectures is an increasingly popular tool at many universities. This paper combines survey data with student record data for students in a Microeconomics Principles class to examine the relative effects of lecture attendance and online lecture recordings. The main finding is that students using the online lectures as a substitute for attending lectures are ultimately at a fairly seve…
Child Patients, Hospitals and the Home in Eighteenth-Century England
This article seeks to map out some of the principal pathways to medical care used by the parents of poor children. We focus on the most formal provider of healthcare in eighteenth-century towns, the voluntary general hospitals, but we use these institutions as a prism to consider the way that the treatment of child sickness was managed more generally in five local settings. Utilising eighteenth-century hospital admissions and discharge registers …

Understanding Health Insurance Literacy
The 2010 Affordable Care Act changed health insurance plans for both the insured and uninsured. Currently insured consumers need to understand changes that impact their purchase decisions, and newly eligible consumers need to understand how to purchase through the new health insurance marketplace. Health insurance literacy is a new concept that addresses the extent to which consumers can make informed purchase and use decisions. Consumers current…
