Data from: Parental separation and behaviours that influence the health of infants aged 7 to 11 months: a cross-sectional study
Objective: Analyse the parental behaviours that are recognized as influencing the health of very young children based on family structure (parents separated or not). Design: Cross-sectional study, examining 79,701 infants aged 7 to 11 months as part of a free preventive medicine consultation. The data came from an assessment conducted 7 to 11 months after birth during which information was collected, namely about the parents' use of tobacco, the infant's type of nutrition, and adherence to vaccination schedules. Results: The percentage of infants whose parents were separated was 6.6%. After adjusting for the cultural and socioeconomic environment as well as for other potential confounders, in the event of separation as compared with non-separated parents, the adjusted ORs (95% CI) were as follows: 1.5 (1.3–1.7) for the infant's exposure to tobacco; 1.3 (1.2–1.4) for total lack of exclusive breastfeeding; 1.3 (1.1–1.4) and 1.2 (1.1–1.2) for breastfeeding for a duration of less than 3 and 6 months, respectively; 1.2 (1.1–1.4) for noncompliance with the vaccination schedule against rotavirus. The duration of exclusive breastfeeding was shorter when parents were separated (p<0.001; median: 10 vs. 13 weeks). Conclusions: This study reinforces the possibility that parental separation is independently associated with certain parental at-risk behaviours regarding the children's health. This observation should be verified because this could result in major consequences for the work of family doctors, in particular in terms of parent information and targeted prevention.
Data from: Specialty choice in times of economic crisis: a cross-sectional survey of Spanish medical students
Objective: To investigate the determinants of specialty choice among graduating medical students in Spain, a country that entered into a severe, ongoing economic crisis in 2008. Setting: Since 2008, the percentage of Spanish medical school graduates electing Family and Community Medicine (FCM) has experienced a reversal after more than a decade of decline. Design: A nationwide cross-sectional survey conducted online in April 2011. Participants: We invited all students in their final year before graduation from each of Spain's 27 public and private medical schools to participate. Main outcome measures: Respondents' preferred specialty in relation to their perceptions of: (1) the probability of obtaining employment; (2) lifestyle and work hours; (3) recognition by patients; (4) prestige among colleagues; (5) opportunity for professional development; (6) annual remuneration and (7) the proportion of the physician's compensation from private practice. Results: 978 medical students (25% of the nationwide population of students in their final year) participated. Perceived job availability had the largest impact on specialty preference. Each 10% increment in the probability of obtaining employment increased the odds of preferring a specialty by 33.7% (95% CI 27.2% to 40.5%). Job availability was four times as important as compensation from private practice in determining specialty choice (95% CI 1.7 to 6.8). We observed considerable heterogeneity in the influence of lifestyle and work hours, with students who preferred such specialties as Cardiovascular Surgery and Obstetrics and Gynaecology valuing longer rather than shorter workdays. Conclusions: In the midst of an ongoing economic crisis, job availability has assumed critical importance as a determinant of specialty preference among Spanish medical students. In view of the shortage of practitioners of FCM, public policies that take advantage of the enhanced perceived job availability of FCM may help steer medical school graduates into this specialty.
Data from: Caregivers' attitude towards people with mental illness and perceived stigma: a cross-sectional study in a tertiary hospital in Nepal
Background: Mental illness is stigmatized in most of the communities and people with such illness are often subjected to defame. Stigma impairs an individual's and their caregiver's physical, social and emotional wellbeing, and health-seeking behavior. Sufficient literature on how often the caregivers of people with mental illness from low and middle-income countries are stigmatized and how they perceive people with mental illness is unavailable. In this study, we examined caregivers' attitude towards people with mental illness and perceived stigma. Methods: We conducted face-to-face interviews with 170 caregivers in an outpatient clinic of a hospital in Nepal using a structured questionnaire. We calculated median and inter-quartile range of the attitude and perceived stigma scores. To assess the correlates, Kruskal Wallis H test and Mann Whitney U test were carried out. Results: Overall median score for the domains: attitude (score range: 18–90) and perceived stigma (score range: 12–60) were 42 and 28 respectively, inter-quartile range being 8 each. Attitude score differed significantly by the sex of caregiver (p<0.05), educational status of caregiver (p<0.001), sex of patient (p<0.05) and type of mental illness (p<0.05). Perceived stigma score varied significantly by caregiver's sex (p<0.05), marital status (p<0.001), educational status (p<0.001), occupation (p<0.05), relation with the patient (p<0.005) and use of alternative treatment modalities (p<0.05). Conclusion: Sex of participant, educational status, sex of patient and type of mental illness were the correlates of attitude towards mental illness. Similarly, sex of participant, marital status, educational status, occupation, caregiver's relation with patient and use of alternative treatment modalities were correlates of perceived stigma. Findings of this study suggest that interventions targeting these high-risk populations might be beneficial to help build a positive attitude and overcome the perceived social stigma.

Sexual Dysfunction in Parkinson Disease: A Multicenter Italian Cross-sectional Study on a Still Overlooked Problem
<p>Background:Prevalence rates of sexual dysfunction (SD) in Parkinson's disease (PD) are likely to be under-estimated and their etiology is still unknown. More understanding of this issue is needed.Aim:To investigate prevalence of SD and its variables, including gender differences, in a sample of PD patients.Methods:This multicenter observational study included 203 patients (113 males and 90 females) affected byPD (diagnosed according to UK Parkinson's Disease Society Brain Bank clinical diagnostic criteria 28), and livingin 3 different Italian regions. Patients were evaluated using a semi-structured interview (a 40-item ad hocquestionnaire, developed by the authors to investigate patient's 3 main life areas: sociodemographic information,illness perception, and sexuality) and specific standardized scales to investigate SD, as well as by means of tools toassess their motor impairment, daily life activities, and disease-related caregiver burden (CBI).Main Outcome Measures:The International Index of Erectile Function and the Female Sexual FunctionIndex.Results:Sexual dysfunction was observed in about 68% of men, and in around 53% of women loss of libidobeing the main sexual concern in both sexes. Men were significantly more affected by SD than women (c2(1)¼4.34,P-value¼.037), but no difference in the severity of the dysfunction emerged between genders.Around 85% of PD patients had a stable couple relationship, and about 40% were satisfied with such a rela-tionship. However, about 57% of the patients stated that the disease affected their sexual life, especially due toreduced sexual desire, and the frequency of sexual intercourses. Moreover, significant differences between subjectswith SD and subjects without SD were found in UPDRS (I-II-III domains), in Hamilton Depression RatingScale and CBI scores.Clinical Implications:Clinicians dealing with PD should pay more attention to sexual issues, as discussing andtreating sexual problems enters the framework of a holistic approach, which is mandatory in chronic illness.Strengths & Limitations:The major strengths of this study include the multicenter nature of the study, toovercome single-center methodological bias. The main limitation is the relatively small sample size, and theabsence of a control group, even if there are growing literature data on sexuality and aging supporting ourfindings.Conclusion:SD is a highly prevalent and devastating problem in patients affected by PD, negatively affectingtheir quality of life</p>
Clinical outcomes in multifocal motor neuropathy: a combined cross-sectional and follow-up study
Objective <p>To assess the clinical course of multifocal motor neuropathy (MMN) in a large cohort of patients and to identify predictive factors of a progressive disease course.</p> Methods <p>Between May 2015 and February 2016, we collected clinical data from 100 patients with MMN of whom 60 had participated in a nationwide cross-sectional cohort study in 2007. We documented clinical characteristics using standardized questionnaires and performed a standardized neurological examination. We used multiple linear regression analysis to identify factors that correlated with worse outcome.</p> Results <p>We found that age of diagnosis (45.2 <i>vs.</i> 48.6 years, <i>p</i><0.02) significantly increased between 2007 and 2015-2016, whereas diagnostic delay decreased with 15 months. Seven out of ten outcome measures deteriorated over time (all <i>p</i><0.01). Patients who had a lower MRC sum score and absence of one or more reflexes at the baseline visit showed a greater functional loss at follow up (<i>p</i>=0.007 and <i>p</i>=0.016).</p> Conclusions <p>Our study shows that MMN is a progressive disease. Although 87% of patients received maintenance treatment, muscle strength, reflexes, vibration sense, and the Self-Evaluation Scale significantly deteriorated over time. Lower MRC sum score and absence of reflexes predicted a more progressive disease course.</p> Classification of evidence <p>This study provides Class II evidence that lower MRC sum score and the absence of reflexes predict a more progressive disease course in patients with MMN.</p>
