Abstract

Parent-targeted reminders increase human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccination rates. Our postcard reminders increased HPV vaccine initiation (receipt of at least one dose) by 60% among girls, but not substantially among boys. To select a complementary intervention that would maximize the effect of reminders, we assessed the percentage increase in HPV vaccine initiation from reminders increasing preventive care visits or increasing the likelihood of vaccine receipt during preventive care.We conducted a secondary analysis of the postcard reminders from a quasi-experimental, factorial designed, feasibility trial conducted in 2013–2014 among 2,470 11- to 17-year-old girls enrolled in Florida’s Medicaid or Children’s Health Insurance Programs. We used log-linear models and a 4-way decomposition method to estimate the mediating and interacting effects of preventive visits on the effect of postcards on HPV vaccination.After receiving a preventive visit, 76% (269/356) of girls remained unvaccinated. Nearly half of the effect of postcards on HPV vaccination was mediated by preventive visits (44%; 95% CI = 9.2% to 78.0%). Postcards increased HPV vaccine initiation mainly by increasing the likelihood of HPV vaccine receipt during preventive visits (pure indirect effect = 32.3%; 95% CI = 1.5% to 63.1%), and also by increasing the occurrence of preventive visits (mediated interaction = 11.3%; 95% CI = 1.5 to 21.1).Reminders likely increased vaccination rates during well visits by priming parents for HPV vaccine conversations with their child’s health care provider. Thus, reminder effectiveness may be increased if timed closely to preventive care visits and/or combined with interventions that improve provider recommendations.Trial Registration: ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT04208269, Registered 23, December 2019 – Retrospectively registered, https://clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/show/NCT04208269.

Abstract

Assessing the risk of common, complex diseases requires consideration of clinical risk factors as well as monogenic and polygenic risks, which in turn may be reflected in family history. Returning risks to individuals and providers may influence preventive care or use of prophylactic therapies for those individuals at high genetic risk.To enable integrated genetic risk assessment, the eMERGE (electronic MEdical Records and GEnomics) network is enrolling 25,000 diverse individuals in a prospective cohort study across 10 sites. The network developed methods to return cross-ancestry polygenic risk scores (PRS), monogenic risks, family history, and clinical risk assessments via a Genome Informed Risk Assessment (GIRA) report and will assess uptake of care recommendations after return of results.GIRAs include summary care recommendations for 11 conditions, education pages, and clinical laboratory reports. The return of high-risk GIRA to individuals and providers includes guidelines for care and lifestyle recommendations. Assembling the GIRA required infrastructure and workflows for ingesting and presenting content from multiple sources. Recruitment began in February 2022.Return of a novel report for communicating monogenic, polygenic, and family history based risk factors will inform the benefits of integrated genetic risk assessment for routine health care.

Abstract

We surveyed pediatric primary care clinicians working in Federally Qualified Health Centers about their perceptions of children’s social-emotional wellbeing. We identified clinician’s current methods for assessing social-emotional wellbeing in practices, perceived implementation barriers to providing behavioral health care, and interest in adopting a validated, low-burden developmentally sensitive parent-report instrument for screening for social-emotional wellbeing in young children. We surveyed 72 PCCs working in FQHCs from 9 US states. Analyses included examining central tendencies, correlations, analysis of variance, and group differences via t-tests. Average PCC perceptions of social-emotional wellbeing importance for overall health were statistically significantly higher than their confidence in providing care for common social-emotional wellbeing concerns (mean difference = 1.31, 95% CI = 1.13–1.49). PCCs expressed low satisfaction with currently available screening measures for identifying concerns in social-emotional wellbeing. Fewer than half of clinicians reported using any standardized parent-reported measure for identifying concerns in social-emotional wellbeing. Assessment methods and decision tools that improve clinician confidence concerning risk indications are needed, particularly at the critical early childhood period. Policymakers and payers ought to facilitate funding mechanisms that support pediatric PCCs in identifying early concerns in social-emotional wellbeing and providing referral guidance to evidence-based interventions to support parents and caregivers.
