The intersection of human rights and mandatory arbitration
Arbitration is a widely used mechanism for resolving legal disputes in the context of international business. However, mandatory arbitration, which compels one party to resolve legal disputes through arbitration instead of the court, has become controversial due to its potential impact on individuals in a weaker bargaining position. This procedure effectively prevents one side from taking the other to court and raises concerns about the conflict …
Development of a Refugee Health Research Agenda in North America
Negotiating cancer alone
COVID-19 has critically impacted cancer care services including reduced screenings, diagnoses, and surgeries; particularly among Black and Latina/x women who already suffer worse outcomes. This qualitative study explored the care experiences of a diverse sample of breast cancer survivors ( N = 21; 7 Black, 4 Hispanic, 10 White) undergoing treatment during the pandemic via online semi-structured interviews. Grounded theory analysis yielded the cor…
The interrelationship between food security, climate change, and gender-based violence
Gender-based violence (GBV) is a global public health and human rights problem that is exacerbated by social and environmental stressors for a multitude of interpersonal, cultural, and economic reasons. Through sudden disruptions in the microclimate of a region, climate shocks often have a negative impact on food security, which correlates with increases in GBV. Associations between the various combinations of GBV, climate change, and food insecu…
Denture base materials surface roughness changes in response to exposure to cigarette smoke in an in vitro experiment
Aim: Denture base materials were subjected to cigarette smoke for the purpose of determining their surface roughness. Materials and Methods: Polymethylmethacrylate and flexible denture base materials were used to manufacture 40 specimens for this study (20 for each). Each sample was randomly assigned to one of four groups: control, flexible, and heat-cured denture base material samples. The heat-cured denture material samples were the only ones t…
Factors Associated with Breast Cancer Screening Adherence among Church-Going African American Women
Relative to White women, African American/Black women are at an increased risk of breast cancer mortality. Early detection of breast cancer through mammography screening can mitigate mortality risks; however, screening rates are not ideal. Consequently, there is a need to better understand factors associated with adherence to breast cancer screening guidelines to inform interventions to increase mammography use, particularly for groups at elevate…
Predictors of Overnight and Emergency Treatment among Homeless Adults
High usage of emergency treatment and hospitalization has been reported among homeless individuals. Hence, this study aimed to identify the sociodemographic predictors associated with overnight and emergency hospital treatment among a sample of homeless adults. Participants were recruited from a shelter in Dallas, Texas (N = 354; Mage = 43.7 ± 11.7) and were predominantly uninsured, low-income men from various racial groups. The outcome variables…
Understanding the Associations between Smoking-Related Risk Perception, Interest in Quitting Smoking, and Interest in Lung Cancer Screening among Homeless Adult Smokers
Individuals experiencing homelessness smoke cigarettes at high rates, suffer a disproportionate incidence of lung cancer, but are unlikely to be screened to enhance early detection. Understanding correlates of lung cancer screening (LCS) interest within this vulnerable group may lend insight into prevention and treatment efforts and reduce their smoking-related morbidity and mortality. This study sought to understand how risk perception and inter…

Factors Associated with Refugee Acute Healthcare Utilization in Southern Connecticut
Refugee Resettlement Patterns and State-Level Health Care Insurance Access in the United States
We sought to evaluate the relationship between state-level implementation of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (ACA) and resettlement patterns among refugees. We linked federal refugee resettlement data to ACA expansion data and found that refugee resettlement rates are not significantly different according to state-level insurance expansion or cost. Forty percent of refugees have resettled to states without Medicaid expansion. The w…
Need for a gender-sensitive human security framework
These data suggest that current gender-blind approaches of describing human security are missing serious threats to the safety of one half of the population and that efforts to develop robust human security indicators should include those that specifically measure violence against women
Sexual violence among host and refugee population in Djohong District, Eastern Cameroon
The following is a population-based survey of the Central African Republic (CAR) female refugee population displaced to rural Djohong District of Eastern Cameroon and associated female Cameroonian host population to characterise the prevalence and circumstances of sexual violence. A population-based, multistage, random cluster survey of 600 female heads of household was conducted during March 2010. Women heads of household were asked about demogr…
O3-3.1 Effects of lifestyle and diet on Body Mass Index Change among Married Women in India
Indian women suffer a very high burden of nutritional deficiency; but the prevalence of overweight and obesity are also on the rise. This study aimed to examine the effects of lifestyle and diet factors on change of Body Mass Index (BMI) in a longitudinal, community based sample of married Indian women. 325 women (15–49 years of age) were purposively chosen from 1998 to 1999 National Family Health Survey (NFHS-2) Delhi Samples and were followed-u…
