The final #PSRHJournal issue examines the association between distance to a provider and the abortion rate, colleague opposition to abortion in teaching hospitals, and how #COVID19 disrupted independent abortion clinics’ ability to provide services.

Final issue of #PSRHJournal out now! Read our commentaries on how access to community-based doulas may help reduce racial disparities in birth outcomes, and how mobile health apps can be vital tools for improving Black women’s #SRH.

New findings in @PSRHjournal from ANSIRH's @lori_freedman, Corinne Rocca, & co-investigators suggest that opposition from medical colleagues is a significant barrier to providing abortion care at U.S. teaching hospitals: https://t.co/F3gTKFBvdk

NEW in @PSRHjournal: ANSIRH's @lori_freedman, Corinne Rocca, and co-investigators found that 69% of Ob-Gyn program leaders at U.S. teaching hospitals faced opposition from colleagues when they needed to provide abortion care: https://t.co/F3gTKFBvdk

Parent connectedness—associated with #sexualhealth in general adolescent populations—has not been examined in a population-based sample of transgender and gender-diverse youth. @CamilleBrownRN, @umnmedschool & @UMNNursing address this gap. #transhealth

New from @UCBerkeleySPH, @ANSIRH & @UCSFBixby: In a nationwide survey among abortion training program directors, most who had wanted or needed to provide an abortion in the previous year faced opposition from colleagues, commonly from nurses. #PSRHJournal

NEW: Level of parent connectedness was inversely associated with ever having had sex among transgender and gender-diverse youth surveyed in 2016 Minnesota Student Survey, regardless of sex assigned at birth. @CamilleBrownRN @umnmedschool #transhealth

New in #PSRHJournal: In U.S. teaching hospitals, more than half of abortion training program directors had denied care to patients in need of abortion in the previous year because of colleague opposition. @UCBerkeleySPH @ANSIRH @UCSFBixby @lori_freedman

New @PSRHjournal article explores how community‐based doulas can disrupt the pathways leading to racial disparities in #COVID‐19–related birth outcomes. https://t.co/zjy4wT4nNF?

New: In the US, doulas can help reduce racial disparities in birth outcomes and should be considered essential health care workers during the #COVID19 pandemic. @DrChelleMD and colleagues describe how in this viewpoint. @Hopkins_GIM @HopkinsCHDS

Ensuring everyone has access to community-based doulas—before, during & after childbirth—may help reduce racial disparities in birth outcomes that were exacerbated by #COVID19 in the US, asserts @DrChelleMD of @HopkinsMedicine @HopkinsCHDS. #reprojustice

More and better research is needed to ensure that mobile health apps are tailored to the needs of Black women. In a new #PSRHJournal viewpoint, @techsexed and colleagues explain the need for improving #mHealth. @EmoryNursing @ICatGT

Mobile apps can deliver health info and interventions to Black women in a convenient, affordable and confidential manner. @techsexed and colleagues make the case for #mHealth in a new #PSRHJournal viewpoint. @EmoryNursing

Not wearing a seatbelt, drinking to excess, carrying a weapon, relying on withdrawal rather than using hormonal contraceptives: Are the first three related to the fourth? @mlcaudillo and colleagues examine risk-prone youth in #PSRHJournal

Risky business: Do the contraceptive choices of risk-prone teenagers differ from those of their peers? It may depend on their racial and ethnic identity, @UofMaryland researchers explain in#PSRHJournal

New in #PSRHJournal: You might expect teens who take risks in nonsexual situations to also take risks when it comes to pregnancy prevention. But it’s not as simple as that, report @mlcaudillo and colleagues at @UofMaryland
