Teen pregnancy: despite progress, more prevention needed
Wednesday 9 April 2014 - 8am PST
A new report from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention reveals that
though births to teens aged 15 to 17 have decreased, girls from this group in the US
are still having nearly 1,700 births a week. The organization says this highlights the
need for interventions targeted at teens.
Not only do teenage mothers face hardships, but their babies are also at risk for certain
adverse outcomes, such as increased medical risks and emotional, social and financial
costs.
The latest Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) Vital Signs report on teen
pregnancy has now been posted online, and the organization notes that it was created to
"continue the dialogue about teen pregnancy and its burden on our nation's youth."
To arrive at their findings, the researchers examined birth data from the National Vital
Statistics System, as well as adolescent health behavior data from the National Survey of
Family Growth.
"Although we have made significant progress reducing teen pregnancy, far too many teens
are still having babies," says Dr. Tom Frieden, CDC director.
"Births to younger teens pose the greatest risk of poor medical, social and economic
outcomes. Efforts to prevent teen childbearing need to focus on evidence-based
approaches to delaying sexual activity and increasing use of the most effective
methods of contraception for those teens who are sexually active."
From the report, the researchers found promising data, revealing that teen births in the US
have declined over the last 20 years to the lowest level recorded in 2012. However, during
that year, over 86,000 teens between the ages of 15 and 17 gave birth.
'Need for early interventions
The CDC report reveals the teen birth rate has dropped, but officials say earlier
interventions are still needed.
In detail, the team observed that, per 1,000 teens between 15-17 years old, births declined
63%, from 38.6 in 1991 to 14.1 in 2012.
Though 73% of teens in this age group had not yet had sex, of the more sexually
active teens, over 80% had not had any formal sex education before they had sex for
the first time.
Additionally, nearly 1 in 4 teens between these ages had never spoken with their parents or guardians about sex.
Broken down by ethnicity, the data show that the birth rate in teens of this age is highest for
Hispanic, non-Hispanic black and American Indian/Alaska Native teens.
"We need to provide young people with the support and opportunities they need to
empower themselves," says Shanna Cox from CDC's Division of Reproductive Health.
"Trying to balance the task of childbearing while trying to complete their high school
education is a difficult set of circumstances, even with the help of family and others," she
says, and adds:
"Teens who give birth are at increased risk of having a repeat birth while still a teenager.
And these younger teens are less likely to earn a high school diploma or GED than older
teens who give birth."
Although the report revealed a promising statistic - that over 90% of teens used some form
ofcontraception the last time they had sex - most of the methods they relied on were
"among the least effective."
Because many differences in teen pregnancy rates persist between ethnic groups,
the CDC suggest there is a need for interventions and services aimed at specific
cultural groups.
The organization says parents and guardians play a particularly important role in helping
teens avoid risky sexual behaviors, and that delivering prevention efforts earlier could
encourage abstinence and birth control use.

Exercise as Preventive Medicine
By NICHOLAS BAKALAR
OCTOBER 9, 2013
A structured exercise program may be as good or better
than frequently prescribed drugs for some common
cardiovascular ailments, a large meta-analysis has found.
Researchers evaluated 57 randomized trials testing the
effect on mortality of exercise and drugs in four
prevention regimens: the secondary prevention of
coronary heart disease, rehabilitation from stroke,
treatment of heart failure, and prevention of Type 2
diabetes. The review, published online in BMJ, involved
more than 14,000 patients.
The studies used a variety of drugs — for example,
statins for the prevention of coronary heart disease, blood
thinners for stroke, diuretics for heart failure, and
biguanides like Glucophage and Metaglip for impending
diabetes.
They found no difference in mortality between exercise and drug interventions in the
secondary prevention of coronary heart disease or Type 2 diabetes. For stroke prevention,
exercise programs were more effective than anticoagulants or antiplatelet medicines. And
for treating heart failure, diuretic drugs were more effective than exercise.
The lead author, Huseyin Naci, a fellow at Harvard Medical School, said that in most of the
trials, patients were doing structured exercise programs in combination with drugs. “These
findings do not imply that patients should go off their medications and start exercising
instead,” he said. “We weren’t able to find many exercise trials, which adds to the limitations
of the findings. But what we don’t know about exercise may be harming us.”

for treating heart failure, diuretic drugs were more effective than exercise.
The lead author, Huseyin Naci, a fellow at Harvard Medical School, said that in most of the
trials, patients were doing structured exercise programs in combination with drugs. “These
findings do not imply that patients should go off their medications and start exercising
instead,” he said. “We weren’t able to find many exercise trials, which adds to the limitations
of the findings. But what we don’t know about exercise may be harming us.”

Exercise as Preventive Medicine
By NICHOLAS BAKALAR

A structured exercise program may be as good or better
than frequently prescribed drugs for some common
cardiovascular ailments, a large meta-analysis has found.
Researchers evaluated 57 randomized trials testing the
effect on mortality of exercise and drugs in four
prevention regimens: the secondary prevention of
coronary heart disease, rehabilitation from stroke,
treatment of heart failure, and prevention of Type 2
diabetes. The review, published online in BMJ, involved
more than 14,000 patients.
The studies used a variety of drugs — for example,
statins for the prevention of coronary heart disease, blood
thinners for stroke, diuretics for heart failure, and
biguanides like Glucophage and Metaglip for impending
diabetes.
They found no difference in mortality between exercise and drug interventions in the
secondary prevention of coronary heart disease or Type 2 diabetes. For stroke prevention,
exercise programs were more effective than anticoagulants or antiplatelet medicines. And
for treating heart failure, diuretic drugs were more effective than exercise.
The lead author, Huseyin Naci, a fellow at Harvard Medical School, said that in most of the
trials, patients were doing structured exercise programs in combination with drugs. “These
findings do not imply that patients should go off their medications and start exercising
