Behavioral Health Care Needs, Detention-Based Care, and Criminal Recidivism at Community Reentry From Juvenile Detention
Objectives. We examined the provision of behavioral health services to youths detained in Indiana between 2008 and 2012 and the impact of services on recidivism. Method. We obtained information about behavioral health needs, behavioral health treatment received, and recidivism within 12 months after release for 8363 adolescents (aged 12–18 years; 79.4% male). We conducted survival analyses to determine whether behavioral health services significa…

The effect of multivitamin use on incidence of pre-eclampsia in lean and overweight/obese women was analysed using data collected between 2006 and 2011 as part of the Environments for Healthy Livi…

Studies have shown significantly longer lengths-of-stay (LOS) in facilities operated by the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) compared with private sector facilities. Most comparisons, however, have not controlled well for casemix differences or have involved small numbers of patients. The aims of this study were: (1) cont…
