Comparing fertility clinic care for individuals and couples living with and affected by HIV and in Canada from 2014 to 2023
Access to fertility care, particularly medically assisted conception (MAC), is a reproductive justice concern for individuals with HIV. This longitudinal study investigates MAC access for people with HIV in Canada. Surveys were distributed to medical and laboratory directors from 58 fertility clinics across nine provinces. Responses were initiated by 24/89 (27.0%) participants, representing 19/58 (32.8%) clinics in 7 provinces. Complete responses…

A Cross-Sectional Analysis of the Development of Response Inhibition in Children with Chromosome 22q11.2 Deletion Syndrome
Chromosome 22q11.2 deletion syndrome (22q11.2DS) is a neurogenetic disorder that is associated with cognitive impairments and significantly elevated risk for developing schizophrenia. While impairments in response inhibition are central to executive dysfunction in schizophrenia, the nature and development of such impairments in children with 22q11.2DS, a group at high risk for the disorder, are not clear. Here we used a classic Go/No-Go paradigm …
