A rapid educational intervention to enhance brain MRI interpretation skills of radiology professionals for dementia diagnosis in Uganda
Demographic, Clinical and Social Determinants of Blood Pressure Control Among Black men who have had Stroke or Transient Ischemic Attack
Engaging and Recruiting Black Men With Stroke or TIA in a Randomized Clinical Trial Conducted
This report describes implementation of a clinical trial testing a behavioral approach to reduce stroke risk factors in Black men with stroke or transient ischemic attack (TIA). A survey of research team members identified macro-, mediator-, and micro-level barriers and facilitators to research engagement and participation and identified approaches to address these barriers. Not being aware of the study was the key macro-level barrier. The team u…
The TargetEd MAnageMent Intervention for Reducing Stroke Risk in Black Men
This 6-month randomized controlled trial compared TEAM, a group intervention to reduce stroke risk versus a 6-month wait-list control in Black men with stroke or transient ischemic attack. The primary outcome was the change from baseline to 6 months in systolic blood pressure (SBP). There were 160 randomized, N = 78 to TEAM, N = 82 to Waitlist, mean age 61.2 ( SD 9.5). Attrition was 53.1% and similar across arms. Biomarker values were extracted f…

Experiences and perceptions of patients, caregivers, and healthcare professionals with long-acting injectable antipsychotics for the treatment of schizophrenia
Interactions between patients with schizophrenia and psychiatrists or psychiatric nurses vary depending on the care setting, which can influence the acceptance of LAIs. Initial schizophrenia presentation, family support, hospitalizations, trust in HCPs, and logistical challenges may all play a role in patient outcomes and perceptions of LAIs
Health disparities among rural individuals with mental health conditions
There is growing concern about the availability of healthcare services for rural patients. This systematic literature review evaluates original research on health disparities among rural and urban populations with mental health conditions in North America. Using PRISMA guidelines, we used four electronic databases (Pubmed, Cochrane, PsychInfo, Web of Science) and hand searches and included original research conducted in the United States or Canad…
Thirty-day mortality rates among young adult stroke patients and their characteristics at Kiruddu and Mulago hospitals in Uganda
Stroke outcomes among young adults in Uganda are unclear. This study therefore determined the clinical characteristics and 30-day outcome among young adults with an acute stroke. In a prospective observational cohort study, 61 young adults with confirmed stroke were followed up for 30 days. Socio-demographic and clinical characteristics were collected using a study questionnaire. Kaplan–Meier curves, and modified Poisson regression were performed…
Secondary Stroke Risk Reduction in Black Adults
Markers of Quality Care for Newly Diagnosed People With Epilepsy on Medicaid
BACKGROUND: For newly diagnosed people with epilepsy (PWE), proper treatment is important to improve outcomes, yet limited data exist on markers of quality care. OBJECTIVE: Examine markers of quality care for newly diagnosed PWE. METHODS: Using Medicaid claims data (2010-2014) for 15 states we identified adults 18-64 years of age diagnosed with incident epilepsy in 2012 or 2013. We built 5 sequential logistic regression models to evaluate: (1) se…
Clinic Appointment Attendance in Adults with Serious Mental Illness and Diabetes
Information on clinical and demographic characteristics and factors potentially modifiable by psychological interventions may be useful in improving adherence to treatment among SMI-DM patients. It is our hope that clinicians and researchers will use these results to help tailor adherence-facilitating interventions among people at particular risk for poor engagement in care
Patients’ perceptions of barriers to self-managing bipolar disorder
BACKGROUND: Self-management of bipolar disorder (BD) is challenging for many individuals. MATERIAL: Interviews were used to assess perceived barriers to disease self-management among 21 high-risk patients with BD. Content analysis, with an emphasis on dominant themes, was used to analyze the data. RESULTS: Three major domains of barriers emerged: individual barriers (psychological, knowledge, behavioral and physical health); family/community-leve…
Barriers to Self-management of Serious Mental Illness and Diabetes
Care approaches that provide social support, help in managing stress, optimize communication with providers, and reduce compartmentalization of medical and psychiatric care are needed to help these vulnerable individuals avoid health complications and premature mortality

Substance Use and HIV Risk in a Sample of Severely Mentally Ill Puerto Rican Women
Auditory and visual hallucinations in a sample of severely mentally ill Puerto Rican women
The content, interpretation, and structure of hallucinations experienced by individuals with severe mental illness are influenced by the culture of the individuals who experience them. We analyzed the content of visual and auditory hallucinations of 53 Puerto Rican women in northeastern Ohio with a diagnosis of a severe mental illness (SMI) who were participating in a study of HIV risk among Hispanic women with SMI. Compared to non-hallucinators,…

Subjective Experience of Recovery from Schizophrenia-Related Disorders and Atypical Antipsychotics
Aims: This article investigates the subjective experience of the process of improvement and recovery from the point of view of persons diagnosed (according to research diagnostic criteria) with schizophrenia and schizo-affective disorders. Methods: A community study of persons using psychiatric services was conducted for a sample of ninety subjects taking atypical antipsychotic medications. Sociodemographic data and clinical ratings were collecte…
