"Does It Really Get Better After Dad Leaves?" Children's Experiences With Domestic Violence: A Qualitative Systematic Review. Trauma Violence Abuse. 2023:15248380231156197. PMID: 36927274
From a research review of children’s experiences of abusive fathers after parental separation, “findings highlighted that the experience of DV persisted post-separation through various forms of abuse. Children also struggled with mixed feelings and thoughts toward their fathers. They found it hard to trust their fathers and were cautious about their fathers' intentions regarding love and interest. Some children had difficulty interacting with their fathers and were exploited by them. Different stakeholders such as healthcare professionals and court officials can play a significant role in supporting and protecting children exposed to DV.”

Intersectionality and Adverse Childhood Experiences: Comparing Subgroups of Sex, Race/Ethnicity, and Sexual Orientation. Am J Prev Med. 2023 Mar 2:S0749-3797(23)00038-7. PMID: 36870786
From a large national survey of ACEs analyzed by subgroups, “Generally, those identifying as sexual minority individuals had the highest number of ACEs (the top 14 of 30 subgroups), whereas 7 of the top 10 subgroups were female. Surprisingly, no clear patterns emerged by race/ethnicity, although the 2 largest groups (straight White females and straight White males) were 27th and 28th of 30.”

Interactions With Police in the Emergency Care of Children: Ethical and Legal Considerations. Pediatr Emerg Care. 2023 Apr 1;39(4):226-229. PMID: 36727807
“We review 4 patient scenarios, based on real cases experienced by the authors, to demonstrate the legal and ethical issues that may arise when LEP [law enforcement personnel] are involved in the emergency care of a child. These scenarios discuss parental/guardian visitation for children in police custody in the emergency department (ED), the practice of making arrests on hospital grounds, and police interviews of children in the ED. Using the ethical principles of autonomy, beneficence, and justice, we offer recommendations for emergency providers on how to advocate for their pediatric patients in LEP custody within the constraints and protections of the law. We also suggest best practices for hospital systems to develop policies surrounding LEP activity in the ED.”

A Midwifery Perspective on Trauma-Informed Care Clinical Recommendations. J Midwifery Womens Health. 2023 Mar;68(2):165-169. PMID: 36658770
“We believe firmly in the adoption of TIC as the baseline standard of care for all patients seeking health care services. Previous TIC publications have focused heavily on tailoring care only for known survivors. However, research repeatedly references that survivors may never disclose their history or be asked by a provider. Moreover, survivors may not realize the breadth of trauma and compounding traumatic events that may impact their care and their lives. True TIC reconceptualizes interpersonal and structural interactions for all patients regardless of known history, highlighting the broader need for TIC as the standard of care.”
