    Abstract In this issue, Pollmann and colleagues (2022) apply network analyses to childhood and adolescent adversity data. They use the rich, longitudinal data from the Avon Longitudinal Study of Parents and Children. By applying network analyses, they draw-out clusters of adversities and the strength of relationships between these clusters and individual adversities with later mental health, substance use and wellbeing. The authors additionally look at adversity clusters in two developmental stages - childhood and adolescence. This commentary discusses how adversity clustering has typically been captured in studies in the past, what network analyses might offer this area of research, and the contribution of the study by Pollmann et al. (2022). The commentary concludes with some reflections and recommendations for the future of adversity clustering research.

    Abstract Purpose: Providing care in early adulthood may have long-term consequences, given the importance of this life stage for life-course transitions. This study aimed to analyze how the transition into caring during young adulthood (17-29 years old) influenced health and life satisfaction in the United Kingdom and Germany.
    Methods: Datasets were from 10 annual waves of the UK Household Longitudinal Study and the German Socioeconomic Panel between the years 2009-2018. We used propensity score matching to match young adult carers (YACs) to similar noncarers to address the endogeneity of unpaid care provision. Then we applied piecewise growth curves to observe changes in self-rated health (United Kingdom N = 2,851; Germany N = 454) and life satisfaction (United Kingdom N = 2,263; Germany N = 449) between YAC and noncarers before, during, and after the onset of care. We assessed carer status, weekly hours spent on care, and duration of care.
    Results: In the United Kingdom, life satisfaction decreased and the probability of reporting poor health increased after becoming a YAC, particularly for those who reported caring for more weekly hours. However, no such differences were found between YAC and noncarers in Germany.
    Discussion: The onset and intensity of caring responsibilities during early adulthood influenced health and life satisfaction in the United Kingdom but not in Germany. One possible interpretation for these differences may be attributed to the different welfare contexts in which YACs are providing informal care. Our results highlight the importance of identifying and supporting the needs of young adults who are providing informal care while making key life-course transitions.

    Abstract Background: Mothers who have children removed from their care often have complex needs. These women have poor health outcomes and are dying earlier than their peers from preventable and amenable causes. Yet there is little known about how health care services might mitigate these risks. This study aimed to listen to the voices of women who had children removed from their care to understand their experiences of health and healthcare.
    Methods: We used a narrative approach to collect and analyse interview data with six mothers who had experienced child removal in England. Each participant was asked to reflect on their life and main health challenges.
    Results: Three narrative subplots were developed to consolidate experiences of unmet health need: (i) 'on paper you're normal': narratives of complex need, (ii) 'in my family, everyone had issues': narratives of whole family need and (iii) 'I'm still mummy, no matter where they are': narratives of maternal identity and health.
    Conclusions: Findings highlight limitations within current systems of support, including a culture of distrust and women falling between the gaps of services. Women's narratives illustrate opportunities for health intervention, especially immediately following child removal.

    Abstract Individual animals engage in many behaviours which are mutually exclusive, and so where individuals increase the duration of time spent on one type of behavioural activity, this must be offset by a corresponding decrease in at least one other type of behaviour. To understand the variation observed in animal behaviour, researchers need to know how individuals trade-off these mutually-exclusive behaviours within their time-activity budget. In this study, we used remotely collected behavioural observations made from a live-streaming webcam to investigate trade-offs in the behaviour of two bird species, the mute swan (Cygnus olor) and whooper swan (Cygnus cygnus). For both species, we tested for correlations in the duration of time spent on key mutually exclusive behaviours: aggression, foraging, maintenance, and resting. We detected a negative association between aggression and resting behaviours in both species, indicating that increased aggression is achieved at the expense of resting behaviour. In contrast, there was no apparent trade-off between aggression and foraging, aggression and maintenance, or maintenance and resting. Foraging and resting behaviours were negatively correlated in both species, highlighting a trade-off between these distinct modes of behaviour. A trade-off between foraging and maintenance behaviours was detected for the sedentary mute swans, but not the migratory whooper swans. Our findings show how birds can trade-off their time investments in mutually exclusive behaviours within their time-activity budgets. Moreover, our study demonstrates how remotely-collected data can be used to investigate fundamental questions in behavioural research.

    Abstract Adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) are associated with depression and systemic inflammation in adults. However, limited longitudinal research has tested these relationships in children and young people, and it is unclear whether inflammation is an underlying mechanism through which ACEs influence depression. We examined the longitudinal associations of several ACEs across different early-life periods with longitudinal patterns of early-life inflammation and depression in young adulthood and assessed the mediating role of inflammation. The data came from the Avon Longitudinal Study of Parents and Children (N = 3931). ACEs from the prenatal period through to adolescence were operationalised using cumulative scores, single adversities, and dimensions derived through factor analysis. Inflammation (C-reactive protein) was measured on three occasions (9-18 years) and depressive symptoms were ascertained on four occasions (18-23 years). Latent class growth analysis was employed to delineate group-based trajectories of inflammation and depression. The associations between ACEs and the inflammation/depression trajectories were tested using multinomial logistic regression analysis. Most types of ACEs across all early-life periods were associated with elevated depression trajectories, with larger associations for threat-related adversities compared with other ACEs. Bullying victimisation and sexual abuse in late childhood/adolescence were associated with elevated CRP trajectories, while other ACEs were unrelated to inflammation. Inflammation was also unrelated to depression and did not mediate the associations with ACEs. These results suggest that ACEs are consistently associated with depression, whereas the associations of inflammation with ACEs and depression are weak in young people. Interventions targeting inflammation in this population might not offer protection against depression.

    Abstract Despite growing interest in young adult carers, little is known about trends in prevalence of caregiving among young adults aged 16-29. Furthermore, few studies have so far investigated demographic, health, and socioeconomic inequalities in the duration of care among young carers as well as demographic differences in caregiving characteristics. Using data from 11 waves of the nationally representative UK Household Longitudinal Study (2009-2021), we first estimated the prevalence of caregiving among 16-29 years-old adults at each wave. Results show that about 9% of those aged 16-29 provided care, and that this prevalence remained stable throughout the 2010s. Then, selecting respondents who participated for three waves of more, we assessed demographic, socioeconomic, and health characteristics associated with duration of care using ordinal regression models. Almost 52% of carers cared at two or more waves. Compared to non-carers, those who cared had more disadvantaged socioeconomic backgrounds, were from ethnic minorities and reported poorer health, particularly if they cared at two or more waves. Finally, focusing on carers, we tested differences by sex, age, and urbanicity in care relationships, intensity, and duration. Overall, women and those aged 25-29 cared for longer hours, for more people, and for more years than men and younger carers respectively. Put together, these findings provide an up-to-date description of young carers in the 2010s in the UK.

    Abstract Background: There have been no formal studies of the use of collagenase clostridium histolyticum (Xiaflex; Endo Pharmaceuticals, Malvern, Pa.) in the anticoagulated patient. Previous study on its use excluded patients receiving anticoagulation therapy. This study reviewed the effects of anticoagulation use in patients undergoing collagenase clostridium histolyticum injection and cord rupture to determine safety and efficacy.
    Methods: The authors retrospectively reviewed patients receiving collagenase clostridium histolyticum injections for Dupuytren contracture between 2010 and 2017. Outcomes included type of anticoagulation, skin tear, tendon rupture, lymphadenopathy, sensory abnormality, hematoma, and bleeding.
    Results: A total of 388 injections were performed in 197 patients. The average clinical follow-up was 311 days. Fifty-two percent of patients (n = 201) were anticoagulated. The vast majority were taking aspirin (acetylsalicylic acid) (n = 182), followed by warfarin (n = 27), clopidogrel (n = 9), apixaban (n = 8), rivaroxaban (n = 4), and dabigatran (n = 2). There were 42 skin tears, 21 in the anticoagulated group. One tendon rupture occurred in the anticoagulated group (acetylsalicylic acid) and none occurred in the nonanticoagulated group (p = 0.34). No patients experienced sensory abnormalities, a hematoma requiring intervention, or uncontrollable bleeding.
    Conclusions: Anticoagulation is commonly encountered by hand surgeons treating Dupuytren contracture. There is no significant difference in complications in the anticoagulated patient versus the nonanticoagulated patient. It is safe to perform collagenase clostridium histolyticum injections for Dupuytren contracture in the anticoagulated patient, regardless of the type of anticoagulation.
