Unhealthy Weight Control Behaviors and Related Risk Factors in Massachusetts Middle and High School Students
Maternal and Child Health Journal - Tập 18 - Trang 1803-1813 - 2013

trigger them, as early as possible. We used 2009 and 2011 Massachusetts Youth
Health Survey data for middle and high school students. We studied age, sex, and
race disparities related to unhealthy weight control behaviors in conjunction
with other ri...

with compliance with a PPV among low-income women in the population served by
fourteen ...

Maternal and Child Health Journal - Tập 22 - Trang 355-363 - 2017
Backgound Partographs are used in many labour settings to provide a pictorial
overview of a woman’s cervical dilation pattern in the first stage of labor and
to alert clinicians to slow progress possibly requiring intervention. Recent
reviews called for large trials to establish the efficacy of partographs to
