Child exposure to parental violence and psychological distress associated with delayed milestones.
The researchers examined the association between parental report of intimate partner violence (IPV) and parental psychological distress (PPD) with child attainment of developmental milestones. They found that parental report of both IPV and PPD during the first 72 months of a child’s life is significantly associated with developmental milestone failure across all 4 developmental domains and within the domains of language, personal-social, and gross motor development.

Generic initiation and antidepressant therapy adherence under Medicare Part D.
This study assessed the effects of initiating antidepressant treatment with a generic versus a branded prescription (generic initiation) on adherence to antidepressant therapy for the treatment of depression. It found that starting patients with generics had benefits for antidepressant adherence by lowering out-of-pocket costs for all patients and by mitigating the effect of the Part D coverage gap faced by patients not receiving low-income subsidies.
