Background Though cervical cancer is one of the leading causes of death globally, its incidence is nearly entirely preventable. Young people have been an international priority for screening. However, in both high-income and low-income countries, young people have not been screened appropriately according to country-specific guidelines and in many countries, screening rates for this age-group have even dropped. Objectives The aim of this systematic review was to systematically characterize the existing literature on barriers and facilitators for cervical cancer screening among young people globally. Search Strategy We conducted a systematic review following PRISMA guidelines of four databases: Medline-OVID, EMBASE, CINAHL, and ClinicalTrials.Gov. Selection Criteria We only examined original, peer-reviewed literature. Databases were examined from inception until the date of our literature searches (12/03/2020). Articles were excluded if they did not specifically discuss cervical cancer screening, were not specific to young people, or did not report outcomes or evaluation. Data Collection and Analysis All screening and extraction was completed in duplicate with two independent reviewers. Main Results Of the 2177 original database citations, we included 36 studies that met inclusion criteria. Our systematic review found that there are three large categories of barriers for young people: lack of knowledge/awareness, negative perceptions of the test, and practical barriers to testing. Facilitators included stronger relationships with healthcare providers, social norms, support from family, and self-efficacy. Conclusions Health systems worldwide should address the barriers and facilitators to increase cervical cancer screening rates in young people. Further research is required to understand this age group.

In the field of education we observe many positive changes in equalising educational opportunities for children and young people with disabilities. The most important changes have led to the inclusive paradigm which posits education of disabled children together with children with special educational needs. The article deals with issues related to educational inclusion, variously understood by parents of disabled children. Parents experiencing the disability of their children tend to normalize their lives, including education in a mainstream kindergarten. When talking about their children’s education, they unveiled personal meanings given to this event, showed their individual truths and the reality they experience. The stories they told were given a subjective meaning, which from their perspective is important and shapes their being.

Rationale The present scoping review seeks to gain insight into what is known regarding the transition of treatment responsibility, specifically for individuals with haemophilia. A focus will be placed on the barriers and facilitators experienced towards the treatment transition process for families and young people engaged in prophylaxis therapy. A scoping review affords an opportunity to map out and provide an overview of the emerging literature given the newly emerging enquiry into treatment transition in haemophilia.Objective The current scoping review will aim to address the following research question: “What barriers and facilitators are experienced by young people, caregivers and healthcare professionals towards treatment transition in haemophilia?”The subsequent objectives were identified to address the research question: • To provide a detailed representation of the range of available literature for barriers and facilitators experienced by the array of actors involved, towards treatment transition and successful self-management in haemophilia. • To visually map the existing evidence (in diagrammatic form) in alignment with the objective of the review.• To consider clear recommendations for future directions of research based on the identified knowledge gaps. Recommendations will ultimately seek to support optimal transition from family-orientated to self-management, and paediatric to adult services. Method: Articles published in peer-reviewed journals are eligible for inclusion. Both primary research studies and secondary data analysis will be accepted. No restrictions are placed upon study design. Articles which explored treatment transition independently or alongside other related concepts such as quality of life, self-care and treatment adherence will be eligible. The current review aims to include articles sampling children and/or adults with haemophilia, their caregivers and/or healthcare professionals involved in haemophilia care. Articles sampling individuals living with haemophilia can have a diagnosis of haemophilia A or B. Articles can define “treatment” as regular prophylaxis therapy or on-demand administration following a bleeding episode. Information Sources The following four databases will be searched: •Medline•Scopus•PsycINFO •CINAHLAt this stage, no date or language restrictions have been implemented in the electronic searches for studies to allow an accurate estimate of the variety of literature available. Additionally, no exclusions regarding the publication status have been applied. Data charting aims to include: • Study aim•Healthcare professional group •Barriers to treatment transition•Facilitators to treatment transition•Future actions for supporting treatment transition

<p>Clark County, Nevada had a 52% increase in newly diagnosed HIV infections in young people age 13-24 with 83% of the new diagnoses in this age group being men who have sex with men (MSM). HIV testing and counseling is critical for HIV prevention, care and treatment, yet young people are the least likely to seek HIV testing. The purpose of this study was to identify barriers and facilitators to HIV testing experienced by young MSM in Clark County, Nevada.<strong> </strong>We conducted a qualitative focus group discussion to identify barriers and facilitators to HIV testing among eleven young MSM in March, 2015. The primary barrier to HIV testing identified by the group was a lack of awareness or knowledge about testing for HIV. Other barriers within the person included: fear of results, fear of rejection, and fear of disclosure. Barriers identified within the environment included: access issues, stigma, and unfriendly test environments for young people. In addition to increasing awareness, intervention to increase HIV testing among MSM young people should incorporate access to testing in environments where the adolescents are comfortable and which reduces stigma. HIV testing sites should be convenient, accessible and young person/gay friendly.</p>
