Adolescents' perspectives on personalized e-feedback in the context of health risk behavior screening for primary care: Qualitative study.
The aim of this study was to explore youth perceptions of and preferences for receiving personalized feedback for multiple health risk behaviors and reinforcement for health promoting behaviors from an electronic health screening tool for primary care settings, using qualitative methodology. Overall, the tool was well-received by participants who perceived it as a way to enhance-but not replace-their interactions with providers.

Pediatric hypertension: provider perspectives.
The researchers aimed to gain insights into reasons for low rates of diagnosis and treatment from primary care providers. In interviews, providers reflected on numerous barriers to diagnosis, management, and follow-up; recommendations for educational content; and how community health center systems can be improved. Findings informed development of a multifaceted intervention.

Research in the integration of behavioral health for adolescents and young adults in primary care settings: a systematic review.
Adolescents and young adults with mental health conditions have some of the lowest rates of treatment for their conditions of all age groups.. In this paper, the authors review the current research literature for behavioral health integration in the adolescent and young adult population and make recommendations for needed research to move the field forward.

Research on clinical preventive services for adolescents and young adults: where are we and where do we need to go?
The researchers reviewed research regarding system- and visit-level strategies to enhance clinical preventive service delivery and quality for adolescents and young adults. They argue that further research that builds off successful models of linking traditional and community clinics is needed to improve access to care for all youth.

Discrepancies in communication versus documentation of weight-management benchmarks: analysis of recorded visits with Latino children and associated health-record documentation.
To examine gaps in communication versus documentation of weight-management clinical practices, communication was recorded during primary care visits with 6- to 12-year-old overweight/obese Latino children. The researchers found that benchmarks were neither communicated nor documented in up to 42 percent of visits, and communicated but not documented or documented but not communicated in up to 20 percent of visits.
