Condition severity has been linked to parenting stress. The current study aimed to explore parenting stress trajectories over infancy in parents of infants with complex CHD, and to compare them by post‐operative...

Barbara Riegel, Liming Huang, Mark E. Mikkelsen, Ann Kutney‐Lee, more

Journal of the American Geriatrics Society > 67 > 3 > 520 - 526

BACKGROUND/OBJECTIVES New or worsened disabilities in functional, cognitive, or mental health following an intensive care unit (ICU) stay are referred to as post‐intensive care syndrome (PICS). PICS has not been described in older adults receiving home care. Our aim was to examine the relationship between length of ICU stay and PICS among older adults receiving home care. We expected that patients...

Project GOLD: A pilot randomized controlled trial of a novel psychoeducational HIV/STI prevention intervention for heterosexually‐active black youth

Bridgette M. Brawner, Loretta Sweet Jemmott, Gina Wingood, Alicia J. Lozano, more

Research in Nursing & Health > 42 > 1 > 8 - 28

Black youth account for the largest number of new HIV infections among heterosexual youth. Mental illness and difficulties in emotion regulation contribute to increased reports of HIV/sexually transmitted infection (STI) risk‐related sexual behaviors in this group. Yet limited interventions exist to address this affective component of the sexual decision‐making process. The purpose of this paper...

Factors associated with hospital admission after an emergency department treat and release visit for older adults with injuries

Emily C. Earl-Royal, Elinore J. Kaufman, Alexandra L. Hanlon, Daniel N. Holena, more

The American Journal of Emergency Medicine > 2017 > 35 > 9 > 1252-1257

Emergency Department (ED) visits for injury often precede hospital admissions in older adults, but risk factors for these admissions are poorly characterized. We sought to determine the incidence and risk factors for hospitalization shortly following discharge home from an ED visit for traumatic injury in older adults. We hypothesized higher risk for admission in those with increased age, discharged...

Adaptive Modeling: An Approach for Incorporating Nonlinearity in Regression Analyses

George J. Knafl, Lamia P. Barakat, Alexandra L. Hanlon, Thomas Hardie, more

Research in Nursing & Health > 40 > 3 > 273 - 282

Although regression relationships commonly are treated as linear, this often is not the case. An adaptive approach is described for identifying nonlinear relationships based on power transforms of predictor (or independent) variables and for assessing whether or not relationships are distinctly nonlinear. It is also possible to model adaptively both means and variances of continuous outcome (or dependent)...

Alison M. Buttenheim, Karthik Sethuraman, Saad B. Omer, Alexandra L. Hanlon, more

Vaccine > 2015 > 33 > 46 > 6250-6256

Child immunizations are one of the most successful public health interventions of the past century. Still, parental vaccine hesitancy is widespread and increasing. One manifestation of this are rising rates of nonmedical or “personal beliefs” exemptions (PBEs) from school-entry immunization mandates. Exemptions have been shown to be associated with increased risk of disease outbreak, but the strength...

First Trimester Levels of BV-Associated Bacteria and Risk of Miscarriage Among Women Early in Pregnancy

Deborah B. Nelson, Alexandra L. Hanlon, Guojiao Wu, Congzhou Liu, more

Maternal and Child Health Journal > 2015 > 19 > 12 > 2682-2687

Objectives Prior studies have examined the role of bacterial vaginosis (BV) and increased risk of miscarriage; however the risk has been modest and many BV positive pregnant women deliver at term. BV is microbiologically heterogeneous, and thus the identification of specific BV-associated bacteria associated with miscarriage is warranted. Methods We measured the presence and level of seven BV-associated...
