In 2019, 20.4 million people in the United States were diagnosed with SUDs, and only 10.3 percent of those diagnosed received SUD treatment [1]. Addiction Consult Services in the inpatient setting provide an opportunity for diagnosis and treatment. An ACS is a multidisciplinary team which offers specialized care for those with SUDs, often including initiation of medication treatment, linkage to outpatient clinics and resources, and patient counseling [2]. We sought to conduct a systematic review and partial meta-analysis on the impact of Addiction Medicine Consult services in the inpatient setting on patients with SUDs.

If students receive a form of sexual education, it usually occurs in their K-12 years in the United States. This education serves to prepare them for sexual activity as they transition into adulthood. The study sheds light on the importance of comprehensive and inclusive sexual education in reducing stigma and promoting healthy decision-making for all students. Our study aims to examine various factors influencing a college student's sexual health, including their sexual identity, religious affiliation, regional differences in K-12, sexual education, students' perceptions of their sexual education, and their comfort in discussing these topics with healthcare providers. A survey was conducted using responses from 200 ASU students, which collected data on their sexual behavior, and their responses were used to assess their level of sexual risk. Additionally, data was collected on topics outlined in our research questions, which explored several factors that can impact sexual health. Independent samples t-tests were conducted to analyze these correlations. The findings suggested a correlation between comprehensive sexual health education and increased positive and healthy behaviors related to sexual health. While some of our hypotheses were supported, the only statistically significant one was the impact of regional K-12 sexual health education on college students' sexual health. Overall, our study highlights the importance of implementing nationwide, comprehensive sexual education to promote healthy lifestyles and prepare adolescents with the knowledge to make informed decisions as they prepare for their transition into adulthood.

Supplier Performance Visibility: Creating a Specialized Scorecard

Description
The use of supplier scorecards has become standard in business environments to measure performance. This need for scorecards has spurred research on the best metrics to include, shown the importance of linking each measure with long-term goals, and explained pitfalls

The use of supplier scorecards has become standard in business environments to measure performance. This need for scorecards has spurred research on the best metrics to include, shown the importance of linking each measure with long-term goals, and explained pitfalls that many scorecards fall into, such as gaming particular metrics. This research contributed to the development of a new monthly scorecard for use at Northrop Grumman in Chandler, AZ, titled the Supplier Performance Visibility report, or SPV. The SPV uses six different metrics to cover many aspects of supplier performance that contribute to the work Northrop Grumman does for its customers. This report analyzes the ways in which the data for the scorecard was collected and the major findings during the five months of initial implementation.

A Comparative Analysis on Infertility in The United States vs Spain

Description
Infertility is a disease generally recognized as a complication of the reproductive system, impacting both men and women. It has undoubtedly been acknowledged as a universal health issue for several years, and within each year, it has been quite observable

Infertility is a disease generally recognized as a complication of the reproductive system, impacting both men and women. It has undoubtedly been acknowledged as a universal health issue for several years, and within each year, it has been quite observable to identify the increasing rates of infertility attributable to disease, hormonal imbalances, chemical exposures, and lifestyle choices. Across the years, there have been increasing developments of fertility treatments readily available, and of the numerous treatments, the most effective and prominent treatments include intrauterine insemination (IUI) and in vitro fertilization (IVF) treatments. The processes of carrying out these treatments vary in nature and, in particular, possess a variety of ethical issues, such as the accessibility of these treatments for targeted individuals like the disadvantaged, single women, and same-sex couples. Throughout this paper, comprehensive research will be brought forth towards introducing such fertility treatments and their prominence in the United States vs Spain, along with their accessibility, success rates, religious viewpoints, and a generalized examination regarding the relationship between infertility and mental health.
