We developed and applied a novel, multi-item assessment of poor QoL among PWH and examined associations with selected outcomes. AB - 2018-2021 CDC Medical Monitoring Project data on 15,855 U.S. PWH. AB - The poor QoL index, measured by the number of indicators of poor QoL experienced included: poor/fair self-rated health, unmet needs for mental health services, and subsistence needs (hunger/food insecurity, unstable housing/homelessness, and unemployment). Score distributions were analyzed alongside data on individual QoL indicators. Associations with selected adverse outcomes were assessed, including not being retained in care, missing ≥1 HIV medical appointments, missing ≥1 ART dose, not having sustained viral suppression, and having ≥1 emergency room visit or ≥1 hospitalization. AB - Overall, 55.1% of PWH had ≥1 indicator of poor QoL; 8.4% had ≥3 indicators. Over a quarter (26.5%) of people who inject drugs experienced ≥3 indicators of poor QoL. A large percentage of people aged 18-24 years had subsistence needs; 36.4% of Black women had poor/fair self-rated health. After adjusting for age, race/ethnicity, and sex, higher poor QoL index scores-and each indicator of poor QoL-were associated with worse outcomes. AB - We demonstrated the utility in using the poor QoL index to identify those at higher risk of experiencing health challenges. Expanding national recommendations to include this QoL assessment could help in meeting National HIV/AIDS Strategy goals for improving PWH's well-being.

This analysis characterizes antibiotic prescribing changes by dentists after the American Dental Association's dental infection treatment guideline was released in 2019. AB - The Xponent (IQVIA) database was used to extract antibiotic prescriptions dispensed from 2018 through 2022. General dentist prescriptions were compared with total outpatient oral antibiotics and summarized by patient and provider characteristics. Census denominators were used to calculate prescribing rates per 1,000 people. AB - Dentists prescribed 24.65 million antibiotics in 2018 compared with 25.17 million in 2022, resulting in 75.5 prescriptions per 1,000 people for both years. From 2018 through 2022, dentists prescribed 9.8% through 12.1% of all outpatient antibiotics. Females, patients 65 years and older, and patients in the Northeast received the most antibiotic prescriptions. AB - Prescribing by general dentists remained stable from 2018 through 2022 despite guideline recommendations to limit antibiotic use for dental infections. Variation by patient and provider characteristics may represent unnecessary antibiotic use. AB - Antibiotic stewardship is needed to optimize prescribing in the dental care setting.

Limited research exists on stressors experienced due to the COVID-19 pandemic among pregnant and postpartum women with and without disability. AB - Examine the association between disability status and experiencing certain COVID-19 stressors among women with a recent live birth. AB - We analyzed Pregnancy Risk Assessment Monitoring System data from 14 jurisdictions implementing the Disability and Maternal COVID-19 Experiences supplement surveys among women with a live birth from June-December 2020. We examined the prevalence of 12 individual stressors and seven stressor types (any stressor, economic, housing, childcare, food insecurity, mental health, and partner-related), by disability status. For each stressor type, we calculated adjusted prevalence ratios (aPRs) using logistic regression to determine if women with disability were more likely to experience particular stressor types, controlling for respondent age, education, race and ethnicity, marital status, and payment at delivery. AB - Among 5961 respondents, 6.3 % reported a disability. Compared with women without disability, those with disability were more likely to experience any stressor (aPR 1.19, 95 % CI 1.14-1.24), including economic (aPR 1.38, 95 % CI 1.23-1.56), housing (aPR 1.56, 95 % CI 1.09-2.24), childcare (aPR 1.32, 95 % CI 1.11-1.58), food insecurity (aPR 2.18, 95 % CI 1.72-2.78), mental health (aPR 1.49, 95 % CI 1.37-1.62), and partner-related stressors (aPR 2.00, 95 % CI 1.55-2.58).

AB - Sexually transmitted infections (STIs) and HIV disproportionately affect young people; gay, bisexual, queer, and other men who have sex with men (GBQMSM); transgender women; and persons of color. Our community-based participatory research partnership developed and implemented Impact Triad, a bilingual multilevel intervention harnessing peer navigation and mHealth to increase STI/HIV preventive behaviors and address 4 community-prioritized social determinants of health-education, employment, social support, and discrimination-among young African American/Black and Latine GBQMSM and transgender women. AB - Fifteen community-based peer navigators were trained to work within their social networks for 12 months. Each navigator engaged 5 social network members who completed baseline and immediate post-intervention assessments (retention rate, 97.3%). Regression modeling was used to assess changes in outcomes between baseline and follow-up. AB - Among 74 enrolled social network members, the average age was 27.8 years; 61% identified as African American/Black, 31% as Latine, and 8% as multiracial/multiethnic. The majority self-identified as cisgender men and 8% as transgender women; 78% identified as gay. About half reported monthly income below $1000.Compared with baseline, at follow-up, social network members increased: STI screening (P = 0.001), HIV testing (P = 0.001), condom use (P = 0.03), and preexposure prophylaxis use (P = 0.02). Knowledge of preexposure prophylaxis (P < 0.0001) and of community-based educational (P = 0.047), job-training (P = 0.002), and job-finding resources (P = 0.02) also increased.

AB - The Adolescent Behaviors and Experiences Survey (ABES) was a one-time online, nationally-representative survey administered by CDC in 2021 to understand high school students' experiences. We assessed associations between student, parent, and dyadic employment experiences and two measures of economic stress: housing instability and food insufficiency. AB - Parental job loss was common and associated with both adverse economic outcomes. The adjusted prevalence rate (aPR) for housing instability was 2.79, 95% confidence interval (CI) = 1.73-4.51. A new finding is that student employment may also play a role in food sufficiency. Student job loss was significantly associated with both any food insufficiency and frequent food insufficiency (aPR = 1.61, 95% CI = 1.35-1.93 and aPR = 1.96, 95% CI = 1.43-2.70, respectively). AB - Analysis of associations between employment status before and during the COVID-19 public health emergency and measures of household economic insecurity reveals social safety net gaps. Our finding that student employment may affect household food sufficiency highlights the need to better understand the role of student employment in household economic stress.

AB - Relative risk ratios (RRR) assessed associations with a 95 % confidence interval (CI). AB - Three distinct linear frailty trajectories were identified: high CFI (indicating higher frailty), low CFI, and progressively increasing CFI. Compared with the low CFI group, females were more likely to be in the high CFI and progressively increasing CFI groups (RRR 1.66, 95 %CI 1.46, 1.90; RRR 1.32, 95 %CI 1.15, 1.53, respectively). Education beyond high school and elevated income were protective against high CFI and progressively increasing CFI groups. Individuals that self-identified as Hispanic had an elevated RRR for the high CFI group (RRR 1.17, 95 %CI 1.04, 1.31). Occupation on 9/11, such as construction and maintenance and repair, as well as high/very high WTC exposure were significantly associated with both the high CFI and progressively increasing CFI groups. AB - Several sociodemographic and WTC variables were associated with more hazardous frailty trajectories in WTC general responders. This work is beneficial to informing and directing future interventions for those at higher-risk for more hazardous frailty progression.

In the United States, the majority of human infections are caused by pathogens spread by the blacklegged tick, Ixodes scapularis. Most infections are reported during the summer months, when nymphal ticks are active in states in the Northeast and Upper Midwest. The density of questing I. scapularis nymphs (DON) provides an estimate for the risk of human encounters with nymphs, but it is a resource intensive metric to obtain from field sampling. Thus, DON estimates are limited in the US national tick surveillance database, the ArboNET Tick Module. We estimated DON across all counties in the eastern US using a zero-inflated negative binomial model utilizing tick surveillance data reported to ArboNET (2004-2023) as well as climate and land cover data. The model estimated generally low DON across the southeastern US and Great Plains states with higher estimates in the Upper Midwest and Northeast regions. We assigned counties to relative acarological encounter risk categories based on estimated DON: zero or lower quartile DON estimates were scored as low risk, whereas inter- and upper-quartile DON estimates were scored as moderate-high risk. Counties with moderate-high DON reported from field sampling were accurately categorized by the model as moderate-high encounter risk (99 % sensitivity). However, 80 % of sampled counties reporting low DON were classified as moderate-high risk (20 % specificity). These misclassified counties were typically situated in recently colonized areas in the Northeast and Upper Midwest and likely indicated areas potentially suitable for tick population expansion. Our model yielded a very high negative predictive value (96 %) indicating the model did very well estimating low relative encounter risk in counties where no or few nymphs were collected, and a fair positive predictive value (60 %) indicated that densities may not have reached an expected peak in some locations, particularly in the Northeast, Upper Midwest, and northern states in the Southeast. Further tick surveillance is needed to evaluate and to refine these predictions. The resulting maps are useful for estimating relative risk of nymphal encounters across the eastern US where field data are sparse and may aid in efforts aimed at promoting the use of personal protective measures in communities that are at risk for nymphal tick encounters.

This retrospective cohort study used linked US transplant and cancer registry data on KTRs treated with belatacept (N = 1514) or tacrolimus (N = 7570) as initial maintenance therapy. We used multivariable Cox regression models to compare the incidence of invasive cancer, cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma, posttransplant lymphoproliferative disorder (PTLD), death, and graft failure/retransplantation (GF/RT) between belatacept and tacrolimus users. Overall, cancer incidence was 10.1 and 12.6 per 1000 person-years in belatacept and tacrolimus users, respectively. We did not find increased risk with belatacept for cancer overall (adjusted hazard ratio [HR], 0.83; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.53-1.30), individual cancer types, or cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma. Belatacept was associated with increased risk of death (adjusted HR, 1.22; 95% CI, 1.04-1.43) but lower risk of GF/RT >4 years after transplantation (adjusted HR, 0.54; 95% CI, 0.35-0.83). PTLD risk was increased among Epstein-Barr virus-seropositive KTRs (adjusted HR, 1.96; 95% CI, 1.03-3.73). This study provides reassurance that belatacept does not increase cancer risk among KTRs, and there was a long-term protective association for GF/RT. However, we found evidence suggesting a potentially increased risk of PTLD and death with belatacept use.

June 2025 | Breast Cancer Research and Treatment, 2025, v. 211, no. 3

Underweight women and those with obesity, defined as having a body mass index (BMI) ≥ 30 kg/m, diagnosed with breast cancer (BC) are known to have worse prognosis. Whether BMI impacts BC stage at diagnosis and BC specific survival (BCSS) is not understood. We aim to better understand the relationship between BMI with stage at BC diagnosis and BCSS. ...

Whether BMI impacts BC stage at diagnosis and BC specific survival (BCSS) is not understood. We aim to better understand the relationship between BMI with stage at BC diagnosis and BCSS. AB - Women age ≥ 15 years old diagnosed with BC between 2014 and 2019 were identified from the California Cancer Registry. BMI at diagnosis was classified as underweight (< 18.5 kg/m AB - ), normal weight (18.5-24.9 kg/m AB - ), overweight (25-29.9 kg/m AB - ), obesity class 1-2 (30-39.9 kg/m AB - ), and obesity class 3 (≥ 40 kg/m AB - ). BC late stage of diagnosis was defined as American Joint Committee on Cancer stage 3 and 4. Multivariate logistic regression was performed to compare sociodemographic and clinical factors associated with late stage. Multivariable cox proportional hazards regression models assessed association of BMI and BCSS. AB - Of 159,248 patients: 2.2% were underweight, 34.6% normal weight, 30.5% overweight, 26.7% obesity class 1-2, and 6.0% obesity class 3. Compared to normal weight, patients who were underweight [Hazard Ratio (HR) 1.54, 95% Confidence Interval (CI) 1.51-1.57], obesity class 1-2 [HR 1.06, 1.05-1.07], and obesity class 3 [HR 1.14, 1.12-1.16] were more likely to be diagnosed with late-stage BC. In models stratified by age, patients ≥ 40 years who were underweight had worse BCSS, while patients ≥ 51 years with obesity class 1-2 had better BCSS. AB - Patients with obesity class 1-2 were more likely to be diagnosed with a later stage, but had improved BCSS, supporting an "obesity paradox" in BC and suggesting that other measures are needed to better assess body composition, adipose distribution, and metabolic health of patients. Patients who were underweight had worse survival, suggesting this high-risk group may benefit from being assessed and treated for possible sarcopenia and malnourishment.

Data from the 2023 NBCUS were analyzed to further understand national trends in US blood availability. AB - In February 2024, all community-based (53) and hospital-based (104) blood collection centers, and a sample of transfusing hospitals were surveyed. National estimates were calculated for the number of blood and blood components collected, distributed, transfused, rejected on testing, and outdated in 2023, compared with 2021. Weighting and imputation were used for nonresponses and missing data, respectively. AB - Overall, 96% of community-based blood centers and 85.7% of transfusing hospitals responded. During 2023, 11,586,000 units of whole blood and apheresis RBCs were collected (95% confidence interval (CI): 11,180,000-11,991,000), and 10,328,000 (95% CI: 9922,000-10,733,000) were transfused, a 1.7% and 4.1% decline compared with 2021, respectively. The total available supply (after outdates and rejections) declined by 0.5%. Total platelet units distributed (2618,000; 95% CI: 2483,000-2753,000) and transfused (2220,000; 95% CI: 2040,000-2400,000) increased by 3.6% and 2.1%, respectively, since 2021. Transfusion of pathogen-reduced platelet units (1258,000) increased by 49.2% since 2021. Plasma distributions (3032,000; 95% CI: 2764,000-3300,000) and transfusions (1882,000; 95% CI: 1765,000-1998,000) declined since 2021. Overall, 123,000 units were rejected on testing for transfusion-transmitted infections.

A network analysis revealed 11 genomic clusters of ≥10 cases, with distinct temporal and spatial distributions. Case reports in 2023 decreased to below pre-2018 numbers, likely due to high population immunity following natural infection and extensive vaccination activities in the highest-risk groups.

This study describes associations between three dimensions of homosexuality-related stigma (enacted, perceived and internalized) and HIV risk behaviors among HIV-negative MSM in Hanoi, Vietnam. A total of 1675 HIV-negative MSM were recruited from the baseline of a cohort study from 2017 to 2019 through respondent-driven, time-location and internet-based sampling strategies. Stigma was measured by a locally validated instrument, with a higher score indicated a higher level of stigma (from 1 to 4). Enacted stigma (mean = 2.10), perceived stigma (mean = 2.62) and internalized stigma (mean = 2.55) were found. About 25% of participants reported group sex and 6.3% reported drug use before or during group sex in the last 6 months. Enacted stigma was significantly associated with group sex (adjusted OR = 1.48; 95% CI 1.20-1.84) and drug use before or during group sex (adjusted OR = 1.68; 95% CI 1.19-2.36). Internalized stigma was significantly associated with group sex (adjusted OR = 1.27; 95% CI 1.05-1.53) and drug use before or during group sex (adjusted OR = 1.44; 95% CI 1.04-1.99). The results highlight the need for multifaced interventions at a multiple socio-ecological levels to reduce stigma toward homosexuality.

However, because of limited vaccine supply, New York City (NYC) prioritized single dose vaccination. We estimated mpox cases averted by this strategy compared to strategies that prioritized 2-dose vaccination for a smaller portion of the population. We fit a network transmission model to incident mpox cases in NYC. Model output consisted of predicted cases over time when vaccine doses were administered with the "first-dose priority" strategy, compared with counterfactual simulations, where doses were administered to those eligible for a second dose ahead of those waiting for a first dose ("intermediate" strategy), or where individuals were preallocated full courses of the vaccine ("second-dose priority" strategy). We estimate that NYC's strategy averted 66% (IQR, 47%-78%) of potential mpox cases compared to no vaccination. This "first-dose priority" strategy averted 0.6% (IQR, -11% to 9.8%) more cases than the "intermediate" strategy, and 17% (IQR, 2.9%-38%) more cases than the "second-dose priority" strategy. Thus, for the 2022 mpox outbreak in NYC, preallocating vaccine doses to ensure full vaccination in a high-priority subset of the population would have increased the size of the outbreak.

AB - To examine the relationship between levels of household food insecurity and disordered eating behaviors (DEB) among youth and young adults with youth-onset type 1 (T1D) and type 2 diabetes (T2D). AB - We used cross-sectional data from the multicenter SEARCH for Diabetes in Youth Study (2015-2020). The Household Food Security Survey Module and the Diabetes Eating Problem Survey-Revised (DEPS-R) were utilized to measure household food insecurity and continuous scores for DEB. In each stratum of diabetes type, we evaluated the association of household food insecurity levels with DEB through linear regression adjusting for potential confounders. AB - Participants (n = 2669) were on average 21.5 ± 5.1 years old and had a mean diabetes duration of 11.2 ± 3.3 years; 54.2% were female, 64.0% non-Hispanic white, and respectively 12.9%, 11.1%, and 8.43% experienced marginal, low, and very low food security. The overall unadjusted mean DEPS-R score was 13.5 ± 9.5, with scores of 18.6 ± 11.8 and 21.1 ± 11.7 among T1D and T2D participants with very low food security, and scores of 11.5 ± 8.9 and 15.2 ± 8.8 among T1D and T2D participants with high food security. Compared to participants who reported high food security, adjusted DEPS-R scores among those with very low food security were 5.8 points (95% CI: 4.3, 7.4) and 6.6 points (95% CI: 3.3, 9.2) higher, respectively, in those with T1D (n = 2274) and T2D (n = 395). Less severe levels of household food insecurity showed similar associations with smaller effect sizes. AB - Addressing household food insecurity may decrease DEB and future adverse health outcomes for youth and young adults with diabetes.

A2 - Nigeria COVID-19 Vaccine Cohort Event Monitoring Implementation Group AB - To generate COVID-19 vaccine safety data in Nigeria, passive reporting was supplemented with cohort event monitoring (CEM), an active surveillance system. We described reactogenicity within 7 days and adverse events up to 3 months after each AstraZeneca or Moderna COVID-19 vaccine dose while assessing the feasibility of implementing CEM in a low- to middle-income country (LMIC) during a mass vaccination campaign. AB - Participants were aged ≥18 years with access to mobile phones who received the first dose of an authorized COVID-19 vaccine from participating health facilities in 6 states of Nigeria during September and October 2021. Data collectors interviewed participants via phone on days 0, 3, 7, and thereafter every 7 days for 3 months. The same schedule was restarted if a participant received a second vaccine dose. Proportions of participant-reported adverse events following COVID-19 vaccine receipt were calculated. Investigation and causality assessment were conducted on deaths using the World Health Organization causality guidelines. AB - We enrolled 12,317 participants (AstraZeneca 6990; Moderna 5327); 6167/6990 (88.2 %) AstraZeneca and 4879/5327 (91.6 %) Moderna recipients completed a follow-up interview days 0-7 after the first dose; among them, 2685/6167 (43.5 %) AstraZeneca and 3533/4879 (72.4 %) Moderna recipients reported local reactions and 2456/6167 (39.8 %) AstraZeneca and 2087/4879 (42.8 %) Moderna recipients reported systemic reactions. Overall, 3891/6990 (55.7 %) AstraZeneca and 3978/5327 (72.8 %) Moderna recipients received a second dose of COVID-19 vaccine, among whom 897/3891 (23 %) AstraZeneca and 1979/3978 (49.7 %) Moderna recipients reported local reactions and 727/3891 (18.7 %) AstraZeneca and 1680/3978 (42.2 %) Moderna recipients reported systemic reactions. Among all enrolled, 11 died; there was no evidence to suggest any deaths were vaccine-related. AB - No unexpected patterns of adverse events were detected, providing additional data on the safety of these COVID-19 vaccines in Nigerian adults. We demonstrated that implementing CEM was feasible and may be valuable for safety monitoring of vaccines introduced in LMICs.

AB - Krabbe disease (KD), which affects 0.3-2.6 per 100 000 live births, is an autosomal recessive lysosomal disorder caused by variants in the GALC gene that reduce galactosylceramidase (GALC) activity, leading to psychosine accumulation, cerebral white matter degeneration, and peripheral neuropathy. The most common form, infantile KD (IKD), has onset by 12 months with irritability, feeding difficulty, neurologic regression, and, when untreated, death in early childhood. Hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) for IKD approximately 1 month after birth can improve long-term survival but has about a 10% risk of mortality within 100 days, and affected individuals can still have significant functional impairment. Newborn screening for KD is based on low GALC levels in dried-blood spots. Second-tier testing to assess whether an elevated psychosine concentration is present in the same dried-blood spot improves the specificity of screening for IKD. Without newborn screening, diagnosis of IKD is generally made after significant clinical symptoms develop, past when HSCT can be effective. The benefit of newborn detection of later-onset phenotypes of KD is uncertain. In 2024, the US Secretary of Health and Human Services added IKD to the Recommended Uniform Screening Panel after a recommendation by the Advisory Committee on Heritable Disorders in Newborns and Children. For IKD newborn screening to be as effective as possible, it is important to have systems in place to support families in making challenging decisions soon after diagnosis about whether to pursue HSCT and to ensure rapid access to HSCT if chosen.
