Sexually Transmitted Infections01:26

Sexually Transmitted Infections

259
Sexually transmitted infections (STIs) are diseases transmitted primarily through unsafe sexual interactions. Bacteria, viruses, or parasites cause them and can result in severe health complications if untreated.ChlamydiaThe bacterium Chlamydia trachomatis is responsible for the disease Chlamydia, the most common STI in the United States. This peculiar pathogen requires human cells to reproduce, residing intracellularly. The initial infection often goes unnoticed because it typically does not...

Cross-Sectional Research01:50

Cross-Sectional Research

11.1K
In cross-sectional research, a researcher compares multiple segments of the population at the same time. If they were interested in people's dietary habits, the researcher might directly compare different groups of people by age. Instead of following a group of people for 20 years to see how their dietary habits changed from decade to decade, the researcher would study a group of 20-year-old individuals and compare them to a group of 30-year-old individuals and a group of 40-year-old...

Healthcare Associated Infections II: Preventive Measures

2.4K
Essential infection prevention measures are based on the knowledge of the infection chain, the modes of transmission in healthcare settings, and the use of the best practices in all healthcare settings. Compulsory public reporting of healthcare-associated infection rates is needed to allow individuals and the community to make informed choices regarding selecting a healthcare facility.
The best practices for preventing healthcare-associated infections include hand hygiene, patient risk...

Longitudinal Research

11.8K
Sometimes we want to see how people change over time, as in studies of human development and lifespan. When we test the same group of individuals repeatedly over an extended period of time, we are conducting longitudinal research. Longitudinal research is a research design in which data-gathering is administered repeatedly over an extended period of time. For example, we may survey a group of individuals about their dietary habits at age 20, retest them a decade later at age 30, and then again...

Birth Control Methods01:22

Birth Control Methods

163
Vasectomy is a surgical form of male sterilization that involves severing and sealing the vasa deferentia, preventing sperm from mixing with semen during ejaculation. Because a vasectomy does not impact the testes' ability to produce testosterone, hormone levels, libido, and sexual function generally remain unchanged. While vasectomy is highly effective in preventing pregnancy, with a success rate near 99.85%, rare cases of recanalization (spontaneous reconnection) can occur. Although...

Bullying

8.3K
A modern form of aggression is bullying. As you learn in your study of child development, socializing and playing with other children is beneficial for children’s psychological development. However, as you may have experienced as a child, not all play behavior has positive outcomes. Some children are aggressive and want to play roughly. Other children are selfish and do not want to share toys. One form of negative social interactions among children that has become a national concern is...

    Area of Science:

    • Adolescent health
    • Public health
    • Sexual and reproductive health

    Background:

    • The COVID-19 pandemic significantly influenced adolescent sexual and reproductive health (SRH) behaviors.
    • Access to essential SRH services was also notably affected during the pandemic.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To analyze the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on adolescent SRH behaviors.
    • To investigate disparities in SRH outcomes based on demographics, experiences of racism, and English proficiency.

    Main Methods:

    • Analysis of data from the 2021 Adolescent Behaviors and Experiences Survey (n=7,705).
    • Examined sexual activity, condom and contraceptive use, and sexually transmitted infection (STI) testing.
    • Assessed differences in SRH outcomes linked to demographics, racism experiences, and English proficiency.

    Main Results:

    • Higher sexual activity reported among students who experienced racism and those with lower English proficiency.
    • Variations in condom use observed across sex, sexual identity, and sex of sexual contacts.
    • Demographic disparities identified in contraceptive use; females and males with same-sex or bisexual contacts showed higher STI testing rates.

    Conclusions:

    • Student demographic characteristics and pandemic experiences underscore the need for enhanced adolescent SRH services.
    • Improvements in accessibility and quality of SRH education are crucial in schools, clinics, and communities.
    • Targeted interventions may be necessary to address disparities in adolescent SRH outcomes.
