Diseases of Despair and Social Capital: Findings from a Population-Based Survey on Opioid Misuse among Adolescents
Deaths related to opioid overdose have increased substantially in the past few years, raising concerns about how to combat this public health emergency. Objectives: We investigated the association of family, school, and community social capital with opioid misuse in the adolescent population. In addition, we examined if adolescents' depressive symptoms have any mediating effects on opioid misuse. Methods: We used the 2018 National Survey on Drug …
Correlates of intentional weight loss among American adults

Binary logistic regression analyses indicated th…
Association between intimate partner violence during pregnancy and maternal pregnancy complications among recently delivered women in Bangladesh
Intimate partner violence (IPV), an actual or threatened physical, sexual, or psychological abuse by a current or former partner or spouse, is a common global public health issue. Understanding both the prevalence of IPV during pregnancy and its potential impact on the health of pregnant women is important for the development and implementation of interventions to prevent maternal morbidity and mortality. The purpose of this study was to explore …
Social inequalities and the context of vulnerabilities: HIV/Aids awareness and prevention knowledge among married women
Worldwide, socioeconomically disadvantaged women bear disproportionate risks of HIV infection. To examine if the individual and community-level socioeconomic disadvantages further increase their vulnerabilities, we used Bangladesh Demographic and Health Surveys. Between 2004 and 2014, we found pronounced disparities in HIV/AIDS prevention knowledge among women based on their socioeconomic status and community context. We observed substantial grow…
Impact of the Mass Media in Changing Attitudes Towards Violence Against Women in Bangladesh: Findings from a National Survey
Community Influences on Married Women’s Safer Sex Negotiation Attitudes in Bangladesh: A Multilevel Analysis
Best Laid Plans: Cultural Entropy and the Unravelling of Aids Media Campaigns
Best Laid Plans: Cultural Entropy and the Unravelling of AIDS Media Campaigns by Terence E. McDonnell provides powerful insights into cultural entropy that systematically undermined the effectiveness of AIDS campaigns in Ghana. The book opens with the argument that “objects are disruptive and culture is difficult to tame,” and therefore campaigns often do not work as intended. At each stage of the life course, campaign messages are vulnerable to …
Agewise: Fighting the New Ageism in America by Margaret Morganroth Gullette
Can a woman refuse sex if her husband has a sexually transmitted infection? Attitudes toward safer-sex negotiation among married women in Bangladesh
In developing countries, HIV, sexually transmitted infections (STIs) and unintended pregnancy take an enormous toll on women's reproductive health, yet preventive programmes are lacking as married women's risks are frequently underestimated. We examined predictors of married Bangladeshi women's attitudes towards safer-sex negotiation using data on 15,178 currently married women aged 15-49 from the 2011 Bangladesh Demographic Health Survey. Approx…
Educating Women for HIV Prevention: Does Exposure to Mass Media Make Them More Knowledgeable
Mass media is an important vehicle for health promotion in developing countries. In Bangladesh multiple media campaigns are being carried out to educate people about HIV/AIDS. We examined the extent of HIV/AIDS knowledge and the association of exposure to mass media among women in Bangladesh. The Bangladesh Demographic and Health Survey (BDHS) provides data for this article. We found that media exposure (combined index of television, radio, and n…
