cy overweight and obesity. Existing interventions primarily target diet and physical activity but lack broad empirical support and typically have only modest effects on weight gain in pregnancy, with few successfully preventing excess weight gain. Furthermore, interventions that successfully target gestational weight gain have minimal positive impact on weight- and diet-related maternal and fetal health outcomes. A growing evidence points to the utility of targeting psychological mechanisms in the prevention of excess gestational weight gain, including cognitive and affective factors, food cravings, and self-efficacy. Given the lack of broad evidence to support the efficacy of interventions targeting diet and physical activity, there is a notable need for research to develop and evaluate interventions targeting psychological factors that could positively impact diet- and weight-related behavioral change in pregnancy.
Higher socioeconomic status (SES) and non-Hispanic White (NHW) race/ethnicity are associated with higher treatment rates and longer overall survival (OS) among US patients with stage I-II pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma. The proportion of OS disparities mediated through treatment disparities (PM) and the proportion predicted to be eliminated (PE) if treatment disparities were eliminated are unknown.
We analyzed 2007-2015 data from the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) census tract-level database and the National Cancer Database (NCDB) using causal mediation analysis methods to understand the extent to which treatment disparities mediate OS disparities. In the first set of decompositions, race/ethnicity was controlled for as a covariate proximal to SES, and lower SES strata were compared with the highest SES stratum. In the second set, an intersectional perspective was taken and each SES-race/ethnicity combination was compared with highest SES-NHW patients, who had the highest treatment rates and longest OS.
The SEER and NCDB cohorts contained 16,921 patients and 44,638 patients, respectively. When race/ethnicity was controlled for, PMs ranged from 43 to 48% and PEs ranged from 46 to 50% for various lower SES strata. When separately comparing each SES-race/ethnicity combination with the highest SES-NHW patients, results were similar for lower SES-NHW patients but differed markedly for non-Hispanic Black and Hispanic patients, for whom PMs ranged from 60 to 80% and PEs ranged from 55 to 75% for most lower SES strata.
These results suggest that efforts to reduce treatment disparities are worthwhile, particularly for NHB and Hispanic patients, and simultaneously point to the importance of non-treatment-related causal pathways.

Relevant studies published in 8 databases before March 2020 were retrieved and screened according to established inclusion criteria. The odds ratio (OR) with the 95% confidence interval (CI) was pooled to estimate the effect. Subgroup analyses were performed in terms of publication year, study design, location, sample size, definition of food hypersensitivity, definition of ASD, and study quality score. Furthermore, we stratified studies by participant sex and age to perform a more detailed analysis. This meta-analysis included 12 published articles with 434,809 subjects. A significant association was observed between food hypersensitivity and the risk of ASD (OR = 2.792, 95% CI 2.081-3.746). The risk of ASD among girls and subjects younger than 12 with food hypersensitivity may be greater than that among boys and those older than 12. The results of sensitivity analysis and publication bias analysis show that the association is relatively stable.Conclusion Our results showed a positive association between food hypersensitivity and autism spectrum disorder, and girls and subjects younger than 12 may be more sensitive to this association. The role of food hypersensitivity in the onset of ASD deserves more attention. What is Known • Food hypersensitivity is a term used to describe food allergies and food intolerance. • ASD is a group of neurodevelopmental disorders that are characterized by deficits in social interaction, repetitive or stereotypic behavior, and verbal communication disorder. • The prevalence rates of ASD and food hypersensitivity in the developed world are increasing. What is New • In this work, we reviewed and analyzed the available data and studies and found a positive association between food hypersensitivity and ASD. • Girls and children younger than 12 may be more sensitive to have ASD than boys and children older than 12.Acute otitis media (AOM) and sore throat are common reasons for antibiotic prescription in children. Starting from 2007, evidence-based guidelines and other multifaceted improvement activities (ProBA project) were implemented in Emilia-Romagna, a northern Italian region. Antibiotic prescription rate in the region decreased with time (37% relative reduction from 2005 to 2019). Within the ProBA project, this retrospective observational study, including all hospitals of the region, aims to assess if lower rate of antibiotic prescription was associated with an increased rate of acute mastoiditis and acute rheumatic fever (ARF). Hospital admission rates for acute mastoiditis and ARF from 2005 to 2019 were calculated using ICD-9 codes. Hospital intervention rates for myringotomy, incision of mastoid, and mastoidectomy were also assessed. ADH-1 in vitro A comparison with antibiotic prescription rate in the pediatric population was performed. Data were gathered using administrative databases and trends were calculated using Poissonreptococcal pharyngitis are associated with reduced antibiotic prescriptions and no increase of complications. • Analysis based on administrative databases is useful for monitoring projects and supporting health professionals in complying with guidelines.
